Chapter 4: Q37P (page 167)

Suppose that we hang a heavy ball with a mass of 10 kg (about 22 lb ) from a steel wire 3m long that is 3 mm in diameter. Steel is very stiff, and Young鈥檚 modulus for steel is unusually large, 2脳1011N/m2.Calculate the stretch螖尝 of the steel wire. This calculation shows why in many cases it is a very good approximation to pretend that the wire doesn鈥檛 stretch at all (鈥渋deal non extensible wire鈥�).

Short Answer

Expert verified

螖尝of steel wire is=2.079脳10鈭�4m鈮�0.2mm, Stretch is very negligible.

Step by step solution

01

Given data

Mass = 10kg

Diameter = 3mm

Length = 3m

02

Step 2:Solution

Young鈥檚 modulus,

Y=F/A螖尝/L鈬�螖尝L=FAY鈬�螖尝=FLAY

From equation,

F=mg=10脳9.8=98NL=3m

A =cross-sectional area =蟺谤2

=蟺脳(1.5脳10鈭�3)2=7.068脳10鈭�6m2

Y=2脳1011N/m2螖尝=98脳37.068脳10鈭�6脳2脳1011=2.079脳10鈭�4m鈮�0.2mm

Stretch is very negligible.

A hanging titanium wire with diameter2mm(2脳10-3m) is initially 3mlong. When a 5kgmass is hung from it, the wire stretches an amount 0.4035mm, and when a 10kgmass is hung from it, the wire stretches an amount 0.807mm. A mole of titanium has a mass of 48g, and its density is 4.51g/cm3. Find the approximate value of the effective spring stiffness of the interatomic force, and explain your analysis .

You hang a 10kg mass from a copper wire, and the wire stretches by 8mm. (a) If you suspend the same mass from two copper wires, identical to the original wire, what happens? (b) If you suspend the same mass from a copper wire with half the cross-sectional area but the same length as the original wire, what happens? (c) If you suspend the same mass from a copper wire with the same cross-sectional area but twice the length of the original wire, what happens?

: A hanging wire made of an alloy of iron with diameter 0.09cm is initially 2.2m long. When a 66kg mass is hung from it, the wire stretches an amount of 1.12cm. A mole of iron has a mass of 56g, and its density is 7.87 g/cm. Based on these experimental measurement, what is Young鈥檚 modulus for this alloy iron

It is sometimes claimed that friction forces always slow an object down, but this is not true. If you place a box of mass 8kgon a moving horizontal conveyor belt, the friction force of the belt acting on the bottom of the box speeds up the box. At first there is some slipping, until the speed of the belt, which is 5m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between box and belt is 0.6. (a) How much time does it take for the box to reach this final speed? (b) What is the distance (relative to the floor) that the box moves before reaching the final speed of5m/s?

You drag a block across a table while a friend presses down on the block. The coefficient of friction between the table and the block is 0.6. The vertical component of the force exerted by the table on the block is 190N. How big is the horizontal component of the force exerted by the table on the block?
