L = 1.00 m, the original length
A = 0.5 mm² = 0.5 x 10⁻⁶ m², the cross sectional area
E = 2.0 x 10¹¹ n/m², Young's modulus
P = 1500 N, the applied tension

Calculate the stress.
σ = P/A = (1500 N)/(0.5 x 10⁻⁶ m²) = 3 x 10⁹ N/m²

Let δ =  the stretch of the string.
Then the strain is
ε = δ/L

By definition, the strain is
ε = σ/E = (3 x 10⁹ N/m²)/(2 x 10¹¹ N/m²) = 0.015
Therefore
δ/(1 m) = 0.015
δ = 0.015 m = 15 mm

Answer:  15 mm

Natali [406]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the front and back of the rocket simultaneously line up with forward and backward end of the platform respectively .

Then length of the platform = length of the train rocket .

A )

Time to cross a particular point on the platform

= length of rocket train / .96 x 3 x 10⁸

= 90 /  .96 x 3 x 10⁸

= 31.25 x 10⁻⁸ s

B)  Rest length of the rocket = length of platform = 90 m

C ) length of platform  as viewed by moving observer =

\frac{90}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2 } } }

= \frac{90}{\sqrt{1-\frac{0.92}{1 } } }

= 321 m

D )  For the observer on platform time taken = 31.25 x 10⁻⁸ s

for the observer in the rocket , time will be dilated so time recorded by observer in motion ,

31.25\times10^{-8} \times \sqrt{1-\frac{.96^2}{1} }

8.75 x 10⁻⁸ s .

Imagine that a small boy and his much larger father are enjoying a winter morning, sliding along the ice on a nearby playground.
kramer
You can write an hypothesis such as this:
The weight of an object has effects on the operating frictional force, the greater the weight, the higher the operating frictional force.
The father is the one with the higher weight while the son has the lower weight. The operating frictional force is the friction that their weights exert.

A 1500 kg car traveling at 20 m/s suddenly runs out of gas while approaching the valley shown in the figure. The alert driver im
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

v_f = 17.4 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use conservation of energy

starting point. On the hill when running out of gas

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v₀² + m g y₁

final point. Arriving at the gas station

         Em_f = K + U = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

energy is conserved

         Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ m v₀ ² + m g y₁ = ½ m v_f ² + m g y₂

        v_f ² = v₀² + 2g (y₁ -y₂)

         

we calculate

        v_f ² = 20² + 2 9.8  (10 -15)

        v_f = √302

         v_f = 17.4 m / s
