Chapter 12: Q11Q (page 344)

The table gives the initial lengths of three rods and the changes in their lengths when forces are applied to their ends to put them under strain. Rank the rods according to their strain, greatest first.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The greatest strain is for rods A and B, and strain in rod C is the least; thus, the rank is A = B > C .

Step by step solution

01

The given data

Initial length and the change in length are given for each rod A, B, and C.

02

Understanding the concept of strain

We use the definition of strain, which is a fractional increase in length, to calculate the required rank according to their strain measures.

Formulae:

The strain applied on a body due to a change in the length, Strain=鈭�LL (i)

03

Calculation of the rank of the rods according to their strain value

Using the given data in equation (i), the strain of rod A can be calculated as follows:

StrainA=鈭�L02L0

Using the given data in equation (i), the strain of the rod B can be calculated as follows:

StrainB=2鈭�L04L0=鈭�L02L0

Using the given data in equation (i), the strain of the rod C can be calculated as follows:

StrainB=4鈭�L010L0=2鈭�L05L0

Hence, the rank value according to their strain is A = B > C .

Question: A meter stick balances horizontally on a knife-edge at the 50 cm mark. With two 5.00 gm coins stacked over the 12.00 cmmark, the stick is found to balance at the 45.5 cm mark. What is the mass of the meter stick?

In Fig. 12-67a, a uniform40.0kgbeam is centered over two rollers. Vertical lines across the beam mark off equal lengths. Two of the lines are centered over the rollers; a 10.0kgpackage of tamales is centered over roller B.What are the magnitudes of the forces on the beam from (a) roller Aand (b) roller B? The beamis then rolled to the left until the right-hand end is centered over roller B(Fig. 12-67b).What now are the magnitudes of the forces on the beam from (c) roller Aand (d) roller B? Next, the beam is rolled to the right. Assume that it has a length of 0.800 m. (e) what horizontal distance between the package and roller Bputs the beam on the verge of losing contact with rollerA?
