The achilles tendon is subjected to a large tension stress that results in a strain of 6%. if the unloaded tendon is 10 cm long,

how much does it elongate as a result of this strain?
The answer is .6cm I need to understand the work to get here.

Answer: 0.6cm

Explanation:

Strain is defined as  how much an object can be stretched or deformed  when force is applied to it .  it measures the  fractional change of the object’s length when the object faces  tensional stress. It is calculated  by using the formulae

Strain =  ΔL/ L

where strain = 6%

L= Original length

ΔL= change in length

 6% = ΔL/ 10 cm

ΔL= 10cm X 0.06

ΔL=0.6cm

A rubber ball and a lump of clay have equal mass. They are thrown with equal speed against a wall. The ball bounces back with ne
gregori [183]

Answer:

The ball experiences the greater momentum change

Explanation:

The momentum change of each object is given by:

\Delta p = m \Delta v= m (v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

Both objects have same mass m and same initial velocity u. So we have:

- For the ball, the final velocity is

v=-u

Since it bounces back (so, opposite direction --> negative sign) with same speed (so, the magnitude of the final velocity is still u). So the change in momentum is

\Delta p=m(v-u)=m((-u)-u)=-2mu

- For the clay, the final velocity is

v=0

since it sticks to the wall. So, the change in momentum is

\Delta p = m(v-u)=m(0-u)=-mu

So we see that the greater momentum change (in magnitude) is experienced by the ball.

The unit of force,newton is a derived unit.why?​
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: Newton, the unit of force, is defined based on Newton's Second Law (F=ma), as the force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter/second2. Thus, it is derived from these other units.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Because heat is a path function or the energy in transit.

Explanation:

  • It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat because the heat is a path function and not a property of the system. It is the energy in transit which can be encountered only when it crosses the system boundary.
  • Heat is the energy in transit of a matter which flows by the virtue of temperature difference. The heat energy in a body is stored in the form of kinetic energy of the molecules which gets converted into heat that we know as the responsible factor for the rise in temperature usually.
