A marble column of cross-sectional area 1.6 m^2 supports a mass of 26600 kg. The elastic modulus for marble is 5.0 times 10^10 N
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

given,

cross sectional area = 1.6 m²

Mass of column = 26600 Kg

Elastic modulus, E = 5 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

height = 7.9 m

Weight of the column = 26600 x 9.8

                                    = 260680 N

we know,

Young's modulus=\dfrac{stress}{strain}

stress = \dfrac{P}{A}

           = \dfrac{260680}{1.6}

           = 162925

strain = \dfrac{\Delta L}{L}

now,

Y = \dfrac{stress}{strain}

\Delta L = \dfrac{162925}{Y}\times L

\Delta L = \dfrac{162925}{5 \times 10^10}\times 7.9

   Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m

The column is shortened by Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m

A truck is hauling a 300-kg log out of a ditch using a winch attached to the back of the truck. Knowing the winch applies a cons
torisob [31]

Answer:

0.1 s

Explanation:

The net force on the log is F - f = ma where F = force due to winch = 2850 N, f = kinetic frictional force = μmg where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction between log and ground = 0.45, m = mass of log = 300 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and a = acceleration of log

So F - f = ma

F - μmg = ma

F/m - μg = a

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = F/m - μg

a = 2850 N/300 kg - 0.45 × 9.8 m/s²

a = 9.5 m/s² - 4.41 m/s²

a = 5.09 m/s²

Since acceleration, a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of log = 0 m/s (since it was a rest before being pulled out of the ditch), v = final velocity of log = 0.5 m/s and t = time taken for the log to reach a speed of 0.5 m/s.

So, making t subject of the formula, we have

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (v - u)/a

t = (0.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/5.09 m/s²

t = 0.5 m/s ÷ 5.09 m/s²

t = 0.098 s

t ≅ 0.1 s

PLEASE HELP ASAP! Any absurd answers will be reported. NO LINKS, IDC IF ITS THE ONLY WAY TO GET AN ANSWER.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

There is a thing called a continental drift. It started about 200 million years ago. At first the continents were all attached, this super continent was called pangaea. Continental drift occurs because of the shift of the tectonic plates within the earth's outer shell. The heat from within the earth triggers movement to occur. This a very slow process though. It took 200 million years for the continents to get where the are now and would probably take another 200 to collide.
