Answer:
ρ = 1469 kg/m³
Explanation:
given,
mass of statue = 0.4 Kg
density of statue = 8 x 10³ kg/m³
tension in the string = 3.2 N
density of the fluid = ?
Volume of the statue
V = 5 x 10⁻⁵ m³
W = ρ g V
W = ρ x 9.8 x 5 x 10⁻⁵
now, tension on the string will be equal to
T = mg - W
3.2 = 0.4 x 9.8 - ρ x 9.8 x 5 x 10⁻⁵
ρ x 9.8 x 5 x 10⁻⁵ = 0.72
ρ = 1469 kg/m³
Answer:
0.4757 mm
Explanation:
Given that:
Load P = 223,000 N
the length of the height of the aluminium column = 1.22 m
the diameter of the aluminum column = 10.2 cm = 0.102 m
The amount that the column has shrunk ΔL can be determined by using the formula:
where;
A = πr²
2r = D
r = D/2
r = 0.102/2
r = 0.051
A = π(0.051)²
A = 0.00817
Also; the young modulus of aluminium is:
ΔL = 4.757 × 10⁻⁴ m
ΔL = 0.4757 mm
Hence; the amount that the column has shrunk is 0.4757 mm
