Although human beings have been able to fly hundreds of thousands of miles into outer space, getting inside the earth has proven

much more difficult. The deepest mines ever drilled are only about 10 miles deep. To illustrate the difficulties associated with such drilling, consider the following: The density of steel is about 7900 kilograms per cubic meter, and its breaking stress, defined as the maximum stress the material can bear without deteriorating, is about 2.0×1092.0×109 pascals. What is the maximum length of a steel cable that can be lowered into a mine? Assume that the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity remains constant at 9.8 meters per second per second.
Use two significant figures in your answer, expressed in kilometers.

Answer:

26 km

Explanation:

Let's say our "cable" has a cross section of 1 m²

Then each meter of cable would weight 7900(9.8) = 77420 N

A Pascal is a Newton per square meter

2 x 10⁹ / 77420 = 25840 m or about 26 km or about 16 miles

If the 80 ohm resistor fails, will the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor continue to operate? Why or why not?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

No, the 50 ohm and 100 ohm resistor will not continue to operate.

Explanation:

A closed circuit is the circuit in which there is no break between the negative and the positive end of the battery.

When in this, combinational circuit the 80 ohm resistor fail then there will not any continue supply of current in the circuit due to the breakage because the electron will flow from negative end of the battery to positive end if their is no breaking in the circuit.

Therefore the 50 ohm and 100 ohm circuit will not continue to operate because of the breaking of the circuit and current will not flow.

Answer:

Vectors have both magnitude and direction

Explanation:

Vectors show how strong the force in because the bigger the arrow, the stronger the force.  Also, it obviously shows direction because its an arrow.

On a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. max
sesenic [268]

Work done by a given force is given by

W = F.d

here on sled two forces will do work

1. Applied force by Max

2. Frictional force due to ground

Now by force diagram of sled we can see the angle of force and displacement

work done by Max = W_1 = Fdcos\theta

W_1 = 12*5cos15

W_1 = 57.96 J

Now similarly work done by frictional force

W_2 = Fdcos\theta

W_2 = 4*5cos180

W_2= -20 J

Now total work done on sled

W_{net}= W_1 + W2

W_{net} = 57.96 - 20 = 37.96 J
