C2 = a2 + b2
29^2 = a^2 + 20^2
841 = a^2 + 400
441 = a^2
a = 21

A cylindrical bar of steel 10.1 mm (0.3976 in.) in diameter is to be deformed elastically by application of a force along the ba

amm1812

Answer:

14778.29 N

Explanation:

Diameter, d=10.1mm= $10.1*10^{-3}m$

Since stress, $\sigma= \frac {F}{A}$ where F is force, A is area and since specimen is cylindrical,

A= $\pi *(d/2)^{2}$ Therefore, $\sigma= \frac {F}{\pi*(0.5d)^{2}}$

Also strain $\epsilon= \frac { \triangle L}{L}$ where L is length

Poison’s ratio,v is the ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain hence

V= $-\frac {\epsilon_{x}}{\epsilon_{z}}= \frac {\triangle dl_{o}}{d \triangle l}$

From Hooke’s law, $\sigma=E \epsilon_{z}$

Conclusively, $E* \epsilon_{z}=E* \frac {- \epsilon_{x}}{v}=\frac {F}{\pi*(0.5d)^{2}}$

$\frac {4F}{ \pi *d^{2}}=- \frac {E \triangle d}{vd}$

F= $- \frac {\pi *Ed \triangle d}{4v}$

F= $- \frac {\pi *207*10^{9} *10.1*10^{-3}* (-2.7*10^{-6})}{4*0.3}$ = 14778.29N

Therefore, required force F is 14778.29 N

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1.2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is t

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

Explanation:

What is acceleration?

It is the change in velocity with respect to time, or the rate of change of velocity.

We can write this as:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}$

Where

a is the acceleration

v is velocity

t is time

$\Delta$ is "change in"

For this problem , we are given

a = 1.2

t = 10

Putting into formula, we get:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\1.2=\frac{\Delta v}{10}\\\Delta v = 1.2*10\\\Delta v = 12$

So, the change in velocity is 12 m/s

The change in velocity can also be written as:

$\Delta v = Final \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity$

It is given Final Velocity = 16, so we put it into formula and find Initial Velocity. Shown Below:

$\Delta v = Final \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity\\12=16-Initial \ Velocity\\Initial \ Velocity = 16 - 12 = 4$

hence,

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

The gravitational field strength at a distance R from the center of moon is gR. The satellite is moved to a new circular orbit t

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$g'=\frac{g__R}{4}$

Explanation:

Given:

gravitational field strength of moon at a distance R from its center, $g__R$

Distance of the satellite from the center of the moon, $h=2R$

<u>Now as we know that the value of gravity of any heavenly body is at height h is given as:</u>

$g'=g__{R}} \times \frac{R^2}{(2R)^2}$

$g'=\frac{g__R}{4}$

∴The gravitational field strength will become one-fourth of what it is at the surface of the moon.

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288

Tomtit [17]

<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.
