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

A 2 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft box weighs 100 pounds, and the weight is evenly distributed. What is the magnitude of the minimum horizonta
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the force required be F . It is applied at the top of the box . The box is likely to turn about a corner . Torque of this force about this corner

= F x 2

This torque will try to turn the box . On the other hand the weight which is acting at CM will create a torque about the same corner . This torque will try to prevent the box to turn around the corner.

This torque of weight

= 100 x 1

= 100 pound ft.

For equilibrium

Torque of F = torque of weight.

F x 2  = 100

F = 50 pounds .

A biophysics experiment uses a very sensitive magnetic field probe to determine the current associated with a nerve impulse trav
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The peak current carried by the axon is 5.85 x 10⁻⁸ A

Explanation:

Given;

distance of the field from the axon, r = 1.3 mm

peak magnetic field strength, B = 9 x 10⁻¹² T

To determine the peak current carried by the axon, apply the following equation;

B = \frac{\mu I}{2\pi r}

where;

B is the peak magnetic field

r is the distance of the magnetic field from axon

μ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷

I is the peak current

Re-arrange the equation and solve for "I"

B = \frac{\mu I}{2\pi r} \\\\I = \frac{B*2\pi r}{\mu} \\\\I = \frac{9*10^{-12}*2*\pi *1.3*10^{-3}}{4\pi *10^{-7}} \\\\I = 5.85 *10^{-8} \ A

Therefore, the peak current carried by the axon is 5.85 x 10⁻⁸ A

A bar magnet is dropped from above and falls through the loop of wire. The north pole of the bar magnet points downward towards
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

<em>b. The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.

A person travels distance πR along the circumference
lakkis [162]

Answer: 2R

Explanation:

Here the person travels пR distance. We know that the circumference of a circle is 2πR. So your imaginated person has traveled the distance which​ is half of the circumference of the circle. And this distance is equal to its diameter. We know that diameter of a circle is two times larger than the radius. So the person's displacement is two times of the radius, means 2R. [Here 'R' means the radius of the circle]
