A solid steel cylinder is standing (on one of its ends) vertically on the floor. The length of the cylinder is 3.2 m and its rad

ius is 59 cm. When an object is placed on top of the cylinder, the cylinder compresses by an amount of 5.6 10-7 m. What is the weight of the object?

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Young's Module and its respective mathematical and modular definitions. In other words, Young's Module can be expressed as

$\Upsilon = \frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L_0}$

Where,

F = Force/Weight

A = Area

$\Delta L$ = Compression

$L_0$ = Original Length

According to the values given we have to

$\Upsilon_{steel} = 200*10^9Pa$

$\Delta L = 5.6*10^{-7}m$

$L_0 = 3.2m$

$r= 0.59m \rightarrow A = \pi r^2 = \pi *0.59^2 = 1.0935m^2$

Replacing this values at our previous equation we have,

$\Upsilon = \frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L_0}$

$200*10^9 = \frac{F/1.0935}{5.6*10^{-7}/3.2}$

$F = 38272.5N$

Therefore the Weight of the object is 3.82kN

7. A mother pushes her 9.5 kg baby in her 5kg baby carriage over the grass with a force of 110N @ an angle

jasenka [17]

Weight of the carriage $=(m+M)g =142.1\ N$

Normal force $=Fsin(\theta) + W = 197.1\ N$

Frictional force $=\mu N=27.59\ N$

Acceleration $=4.66\ m\ s^{-2}$

Explanation:

We have to look into the FBD of the carriage.

Horizontal forces and Vertical forces separately.

To calculate Weight we know that both the mass of the baby and the carriage will be added.

So Weight(W) $=(m+M)\times g =(9.5+5)\ kg \times 9.8 =142.1\ Newton\ (N)$

To calculate normal force we have to look upon the vertical component of forces, as Normal force is acting vertically.We have weight which is a downward force along with $F_x$ , force of $110\ N$ acting vertically downward.Both are downward and Normal is upward so Normal force $=Summation\ of\ both\ forces$

Normal force (N) $= Fsin(\theta)+W=110sin(30) + 142.1 =197.1\ N$

Frictional force (f) $=\mu N=0.14\times 197.1 =27.59\ N$

To calculate acceleration we will use Newtons second law.

That is Force is product of mass and acceleration.

We can see in the diagram that $F_y=Horizontal$ and $F_x=Vertical$ component of forces.

So Fnet = Fy(Horizontal) - f(friction) $= m\times a$

Acceleration (a) = $\frac{Fcos(\theta)-\mu N}{mass(m)} =\frac{(95.26-27.59)}{14.5}= 4.66\ m\ s{^2 }$

So we have the weight of the carriage, normal force,frictional force and acceleration.

Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air

Nata [24]

The frequency of a sound is whatever frequency leaves the source. It doesn't change.

Voiced of swimmers at the pool don't change frequency in or out of the water. Only their speed and wavelength change.

If Katie swims from one end of the pool, to the other side, and then swims back to her original spot, her average velocity is ha

Crank

Answer:

false.

Explanation:

Ok, we define average velocity as the sum of the initial and final velocity divided by two.

Remember that the velocity is a vector, so it has a direction.

Then when she goes from the 1st end to the other, the velocity is positive

When she goes back, the velocity is negative

if both cases the magnitude of the velocity, the speed, is the same, then the average velocity is:

AV = (V + (-V))/2 = 0

While the average speed is the quotient between the total distance traveled (twice the length of the pool) and the time it took to travel it.

So we already can see that the average velocity will not be equal to half of the average speed.

The statement is false

shusha [124]

Answer:

Part a) When collision is perfectly inelastic

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}$

Part b) When collision is perfectly elastic

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that collision is perfectly inelastic

so here we will have

$mv_m = (m + M)v$

so we have

$v = \frac{mv_m}{m + M}$

now we know that in order to complete the circle we will have

$v = \sqrt{5Rg}$

$\frac{mv_m}{m + M} = \sqrt{5Rg}$

now we have

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{m} \sqrt{5Rg}$

Part b)

Now we know that collision is perfectly elastic

so we will have

$v = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}$

now we have

$\sqrt{5Rg} = \frac{2mv_m}{m + M}$

$v_m = \frac{m + M}{2m}\sqrt{5Rg}$
