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
I don't understand what you mean by "depth" of the steps. The flat part of the step has a front-to-back dimension, and the 'riser' has a height. I don't care about the horizontal dimension of the step because it doesn't add anything to the climber's potential energy. And if the riser of each step is 20cm high, then 3,234 of them only take him (3,234 x 0.2) = 646.8 meters up off the ground. So something is definitely fishy about the steps.
Fortunately, we don't need to worry at all about the steps in order to derive a first approximation to the answer ... one that's certainly good enough for high school Physics.
In order to lift his bulk 828 meters from the street to the top of the Burj, the climber has to provide a force of 800 newtons, and maintain it through a distance of 828 meters. The work [s]he does is (force) x (distance) = <em>662,400 joules. </em>
Answer:
B or D but im pretty sure it is D
Explanation:
When molecules are left in the sun, it heats up. When molecules heat up, the begin to vibrate rapidly. The sun is not constant as it could get blocked by clouds, so it would, at times, slow down the movement of the molecules. The answer is most likely D.
This can be answered using the beat frequency formula, which is simply the difference between 2 frequencies.
Let: <span>fᵇ = beat frequency
</span>f₁ = first frequency
f₂ = second frequency
fᵇ = |f₁ - f₂|
substituting the values:
fᵇ = |24Hz - 20Hz|
fᵇ = 4Hz
The unit Hz also means beats per second, therefore:
<span>fᵇ = 4 beats per second
</span>
Therefore, the answer is C. 4
