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

Answer:

circuit sketched in first attached image.

Second attached image is for calculating the equivalent output resistance

Explanation:

For calculating the output voltage with regarding the first image.

$Vout = Vin \frac{R_{2}}{R_{2}+R_{1}}$

$Vout = 5 \frac{2000}{5000}[/[tex][tex]Vout = 5 \frac{2000}{5000}\\Vout = 5 \frac{2}{5} = 2 V$

For the calculus of the equivalent output resistance we apply thevenin, the voltage source is short and current sources are open circuit, resulting in the second image.

so.

$R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 2000||3000 = \frac{2000*3000}{2000+3000} = 1200$

Taking into account the %5 tolerance, with the minimal bound for Voltage and resistance.

if the -5% is applied to both resistors the Voltage is still 5V because the quotient has 5% / 5% so it cancels. to be more logic it applies the 5% just to one resistor, the resistor in this case we choose 2k but the essential is to show that the resistors usually don't have the same value. applying to the 2k resistor we have:

$Vout = 5 \frac{1900}{4900}\\Vout = 5 \frac{19}{49} = 1.93 V$

$Vout = 5 \frac{2100}{5100}\\Vout = 5 \frac{21}{51} = 2.05 V$

$R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 1900||2850= \frac{1900*2850}{1900+2850} = 1140$

$R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 2100||3150 = \frac{2100*3150 }{2100+3150 } = 1260$

so.

$V_{out} = {1.93,2.05}V\\R_{1} = {1900,2100}\\R_{2} = {2850,3150}\\R_{out} = {1140,1260}$

If an electromagnetic wave has components Ey = E0 sin(kx - ωt) and Bz = B0 sin(kx - ωt), in what direction is it traveling?

fomenos

Answer:

Its traveling in the +x direction

Explanation:

The E-field is in the +y-direction, and the B-field is in the +z-direction, so it must be moving along the +x-direction, since the E-field, B-field and the direction of moving are all at right angles to each other.

A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 38

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

the ratio is $\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

Explanation:

Given

$Initial Temperature T_1=387 KFinal Temperature T_2=774 K$

The RMS velocity of molecules in a gas is given by

$V_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3k_bT}{m}}$

where T=temperature

$k_b=constant$

For T = 387K

$V_1=\sqrt{\frac{3k_b\cdot 387}{m}}----1$

For T = 774

$V_2=\sqrt{\frac{3k_b\cdot 774}{m}}----(2)$

dividing eqn 1 and eqn 2

$\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{\frac{774}{387}}$

$\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

Thus,the ratio is $\frac{V_2}{V_1}=\sqrt{2}$

A beam of microwaves with λ = 0.9 mm is incident upon a 9 cm slit. At a distance of 1.5 m from the slit, what is the approximate

liq [111]

Answer:

3 cm

Explanation:

According to the question,

$D=1.5 m$ .

$d=9 cm$ .

$\lambda =0.9 mm$ .

Now the approximate slit's image width is equal to width of central maxima.

And width of central maxima is twice the width from center to first maxima

So,

$y=2\frac{\lambda (D)}{d}$ .

Substitute all the variable in above equation.

$y=\frac{(2)0.9\times 10^{-2} m(1.5 m) }{0.09 m}$ .

$y=3 cm$ .
