Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The given data can be listed below,

  • The diameter of iron wire is,d=0.08cm1cm100cm=0.8×10-3cm.
  • The mass of object hanging on wire is,m=52kg
  • The length of the wire is, L=2.5m..
  • The stretch in wire is,∆L=1.27cm
  • The mass of one mole of iron is,M=56g
  • Density of the iron is,ÒÏ=7.78g/cm3

Concept/Significance of young modules

The gradient of deformation versus applied force across a linear range is known as Young's modulus. The deformation graph, in other words, is a straight line. Deformation recovers when the force decreases within that range.

03

(a) Determination of the length of an interatomic bond in iron

The mass of one atom is given by,

ma=MNA

Here, M is the mass of one mole of iron and NAis the Avogadro number.

Substitute value in the above,

ma=56g6.02×10-23g/atom=9.3×10-23g/atom

The length of interatomic bond is given by,

da=maÒÏ

Here, m2is the mass of one tom andÒÏ is the density of iron atom.

Substitute all values in the above,

da=9.3×10-23g/atom7.78g/cm31/3=2.28×10-10

Thus, the length of interatomic bond in iron is 2.27×10-10m.

04

(b) Determination of the approximate value of the effective spring stiffness of one interatomic bond in iron

The cross-sectional area of the wire is given by,

A=Ï€D22

Here, d is the diameter of the wire.

The young modules of iron is given by,

Y=4mgL∆L∆d2

Here, m is the mass of wire, g is the acceleration due to gravity, L is the length of the wire, is the stretch in wire and d is the diameter of wire.

Substitute all the values in the above,

Y=4529.8m/s22.5m1.27cm1m100cmπ0.8×10-3m2=2.0×1011N/m2

The stiffness of the interatomic force is given by,

k=Yda

Here, Y is the young modules andda is the length of interatomic bond.

Substitute all the values in the above expression.

k=2×1011N/m22.28×10-10m=45.6N/m

Thus, the approximate value of effective spring stiffness of one interatomic bond isdata-custom-editor="chemistry" 45.6N/m .

Here are two examples of floating objects: (a) A block of wood 20 cm long by 10 cm wide by 6 cm high has a density of 0.7 g/cm3 and floats in water (whose density is 1.0 g/cm3). How far below the surface of water is the bottom of the block. Explain your reasoning?

One mole of tungsten (6.02×1023atoms) has a mass of 184 g, as shown in the periodic table on the inside front cover of the textbook. The density of tungsten is19.3g/cm3. What is the approximate diameter of a tungsten atom (length of a bond) in a solid block of the material? Make the simplifying assumption that the atoms are arranged in a cubic array.

A chain of length L, and mass M is suspended vertically by one end with the bottom end just above a table. The chain is released and falls, and the links do not rebound off the table, but they spread out so that the top link falls very nearly the full distance L. Just before the instant when the entire chain has fallen onto the table, how much force does the table exert on the chain? Assume that the chain links have negligible interaction with each other as the chain drops, and make the approximation that there is very large number of links. Hint: Consider the instantaneous rate of change momentum of the chain as the last link hits the table.
