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

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

0.363999909622

Explanation:

F = Force

m = Mass = 15.6 g

C = Drag coefficient

ρ = Density of air = 1.21 kg/m³

A = Surface area = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

v = Terminal velocity = v=210\ m/s

s = Displacement = 150 m

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}

Force is given by

F = ma

F=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow ma=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow C=2\times m\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\times\dfrac{1}{\rho Av^2}\\\Rightarrow C=2\times15.6\times 10^{-3}\dfrac{210^2-250^2}{2\times 150}\times\dfrac{1}{1.21\times\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (11.2\times 10^{-3})^2(210)^2}\\\Rightarrow C=-0.363999909622

The drag coefficient is 0.363999909622 (ignoring negative sign)

A 0.200-kg cube of ice (frozen water) is floating in glycerine.The gylcerine is in a tall cylinder that has inside radius 3.90 c
natita [175]

Answer:

Part a)

h = 0.86 cm

Part b)

Level will increase

Explanation:

Part a)

Mass of the ice cube is 0.200 kg

Now from the buoyancy force formula we know that weight of the ice is counter balanced by buoyancy force on the ice

So here we will have

mg = \rho V_{displaced} g

V_{displaced} = \frac{m}{\rho}

V_{displaced} = \frac{0.200}{1260} = 1.59 \times 10^{-4} m^3

now as we know that ice will melt into water

so here volume of water that will convert due to melting of ice is given as

V\rho_w = m_{ice}

V = \frac{0.200}{1000} = 2\times 10^{-4} m^3

So here extra volume that rise in the level will be given as

\Dleta V = V - V_{displaced}

\pi r^2 h = 2\times 10^{-4} - 1.59 \times 10^{-4}

(\pi (0.039^2) h = 0.41 \times 10^{-4}

h = 0.86 cm

Part b)

Since volume of water that formed here is more than the volume that is displaced by the ice so we can say that level of liquid in the cylinder will increase due to melting of ice

Se dispone de dos vasos con agua a 20 grados y queremos calentarlo hasta alcanzar 50 grados. Si el primero contiene 0,5l y el se
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The cup with 0.5L

Explanation:

To know what amount of water you take into account the specific heat of the water. The specific heat of water is:

c_{water}=4186\frac{J}{kg\°C}

Thus, 4186 J of energy are needed to icrease the temperature of 1 kg water in 1°C. Then, more grams of water will need more energy.

You have that one cup has 0.5 L and the other one has 750mL = 0.75L

The second cup of water will need more heat because the amount of water contained in the second cup is greater than in the first cup with 0.5L

A cheetah can accelerate from rest to a speed of 21.5 m/s in 6.75 s. What is its acceleration? m/s^2
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Acceleration will be a=3.185m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given final velocity v = 21.5 m/sec

Time t = 6.75 sec

As cheetah starts from rest so initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

From first equation of motion we know that v = u+at, here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So 21.5=0+a\times 6.75

a=3.185m/sec^2
