Which trailer has more downward pressure where it attaches to the car?

Physics
1 answer:
VARVARA [1.3K]1 year ago

The one that is loaded worst. The overall weight is not important; tongue weight is a matter of loading. Our 12,000 lb snow cat trailer, which has stops to position the cat properly, has under 100 lbs tongue weight. Excessive tongue weight is a Bad Thing because it reduces weight on the towing vehicle's front wheels, leading to instability.

Process in which permanent deformation of metals occurs due to applied stress and results in breaking of bonds and then reformin
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

This process involves the motion of dislocations and is termed slip (or glide in some textbooks)

Explanation:

Plastic deformation of metals (and other crystalline materials) usually occurs by slip, which is the sliding of planes of atoms over one another by dislocation movements.

On a microscopic scale, stress causes planes of crystalline objects to leave their original position and slide over other planes into new positions, these microscopic movements manifest as a slip on a macroscopic scale. And the planes do not return back to their original position after the removal of the dislocation-causing stress.

The equilibrium fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver (Ag) at 600°C is 1 × 10-6. Calculate the number of vacancies
algol [13]

Answer :

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

Explanation:

Given,

Atomic mass of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Density of silver = 10.35 g/cm^3

Converting to g/m^3,

= 10.35 g/cm^3 × 10^6cm^3/m^3

= 10.35 × 10^6 g/m^3

Avogadro's number = 6.022 × 10^23 atoms/mol

Fraction of lattice sites that are vacant in silver = 1 × 10^-6

Nag = (Na * Da)/Aag

Where,

Nag = Total number of lattice sites in Ag

Na = Avogadro's number

Da = Density of silver

Aag = Atomic weight of silver

= (6.022 × 10^23 × (10.35 × 10^6)/107.87

= 5.778 × 10^28 atoms/m^3

The number of vacancies (per meter cube) = 5.778 × 10^28 × 1 × 10^-6

= 5.778 × 10^22/m^3.

A cylindrical wire has a resistance R and resistivity ρ. If its length and diameter are BOTH cut in half, what will be its resis
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The resistance will be 2×R

Explanation:

We note that the resistivity of a cylindrical wire is given by the following relation;

\rho = \frac{RA}{L}

Where:

ρ = Resistivity of the wire

R = The wire resistance

A = Cross sectional area of the wire = π·D²/4

L = Length  of the wire

Rearranging, we have;

R= \frac{\rho L}{A}

If the length and the diameter are both cut in half, we have;

L₂ = L/2

A₂ =π·D₂²/4 = \pi \cdot \left (\frac{D}{2}   \right )^{2} \times \frac{1}{4}  = \pi \cdot \frac{D^{2}}{16} = A/4

Therefore, the new resistance, R₂ can be expressed as follows;

R_2= \frac{\rho \frac{L}{2} }{\frac{A}{4} } = \rho \frac{L}{2} \times \frac{4}{A} = 2 \times  \frac{\rho L}{A}

Hence, the new resistance R₂ =  2×R, that is the resistance will be doubled.

gladu [14]

Answer: 0.98m

Explanation:

P = -74 mm Hg = 9605 Pa = 9709N/m^2

= 9605 kg m/s^2/m^2

density of water: rho = 1 g/cc = 1 (10^-3 kg)/(10^-2 m)^-3 = 1000 kg/m^3

Pressure equation: P = rho g h

h = P/(rho g)

h = (9605 kg/m/s^2) / (1000 kg/m^3) / (9.8 m/s^2)

h = 0.98 m

0.98m is the maximum depth he could have been.
