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 horizontal aluminum rod 4.8 cmin diameter projects 5.3 cm from a wall. An1200kgobject is suspended from the end of the rod. The shear modulus of aluminum is3.0脳1010N/m2 .(a) Neglecting the rod鈥檚 mass, find the shear stress on the rod, and (b) Neglecting the rod鈥檚 mass, find the vertical deflection of the end of the rod.

In Fig. 12-68, an 817 kg construction bucket is suspended by a cable Athat is attached at O to two other cables Band C, making angles胃1=51.0掳and胃2=66.0掳with the horizontal. Find the tensions in (a) cable A, (b) cable B, and (c) cable C. (Hint:To avoid solving two equations in two unknowns, position the axes as shown in the figure.)

In Fig. 12-72, two identical, uniform, and frictionless spheres, each of mass m, rest in a rigid rectangular container. A line connecting their centers is at45掳to the horizontal. Find the magnitudes of the forces on the spheres from (a) the bottom of the container, (b) the left side of the container, (c) the right side of the container, and (d) each other. (Hint:The force of one sphere on the other is directed along the center鈥揷enter line.)

Four bricks of length L, identical and uniform, are stacked on top of oneanother (Fig. 12-71) in such a way that part of each extends beyond the one beneath. Find, in terms of L, the maximum values of (a) a1 , (b) a2, (c) a3 , (d)a4 , and (e) h, such that the stack is in equilibrium, on the verge of falling.

In Fig. 12-69, a package of mass mhangs from a short cord that is tied to the wall via cord 1 and to the ceiling via cord 2. Cord 1 is at angle蠒=40掳with the horizontal; cord 2 is at angle胃. (a) For what value of 胃is the tension in cord 2 minimized? (b) In terms of mg, what is the minimum tension in cord 2
