Answer:
(a) Elongation of the rod==5.61×10⁻⁹m
(b) Change in diameter=1.640×10⁻⁸m
Explanation:
Given data
Diameter d=78 in=1.9812 m
Cross Area is:
Applied Load P=17 KN=17×10³N
E=29 × 106 psi=1.99947961×10¹¹Pa
Stress and Strain in x direction
Stress in x direction
σ=P/A
σ=5517.25 Pa
Strain in x direction
ε=σ/E
ε=2.76×10⁻⁸
Part (a)
Elongation of the rod=Lε
=(0.2032)(2.76×10⁻⁸)
Elongation of the rod==5.61×10⁻⁹m
Part(b) Change in diameter
Strain in y direction
ε₁= -vε
ε₁= -(0.30)(2.76×10⁻⁸)
ε₁=-8.28×10⁻⁹
Change in diameter=d×ε₁
Change in diameter=(1.9812m)×(-8.28×10⁻⁹)
Change in diameter=1.640×10⁻⁸m
Answer:
D. because the light is reflected back into the fiber along its sides
Explanation:
The fiber is constructed in a way that the light is bent/reflected/refracted toward the center core of glass. So, from the center core, there is a layer above it that has a different propagation than the core, and above that the same thing. To give you a real world visual example, if you look down in a pool of water, then stick a straight stick into it, you see that the straight stick appears to bend. That is what is happening to the light as it travels through a different medium (air to water). This same effect is incorporated in the fiber optic cable construction.
Answer:
A simple machine consisting of an axle to which a wheel is fastened so that torque applied to the wheel winds a rope or chain onto the axle, yielding a mechanical advantage equal to the ratio of the diameter of the wheel to that of the axle.
