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.

Young鈥檚 modulus for aluminium is .The density of aluminium is ,and the mass of one mole is 27g. If we model the interactions of neighbouring aluminium atoms as though they were connected by spring, determine the approximate spring constant of such a spring. Repeat this analysis for lead is: Young鈥檚 modulus for Lead and the density of lead is , and the mass of one mole is 207g. Make a note of these results, which we will use for various purposes later on. Note that aluminium is a rather stiff material, whereas lead is quite soft.

One mole of tungsten (6.02脳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.

If a chain of 50identical short springs linked end to end has a stiffness of 270N/m, what is the stiffness of one short spring?

An object of mass m is attached by two stretched springs (stiffnessKs and relaxed lengthL0 ) to rigid walls, as shown in figure 4.60. The springs are initially stretched by an amount (L-L0). When the object is displaced to the right and released, it oscillates horizontally. Starting from the momentum principle, find a function of the displacement xof the object and the timet describes the oscillatory motion.

(a) What is the period of the motion?

(b) If L0 were shorter (so the springs are initially stretched more), would the period be larger, smaller, or the same?

A 15kgbox sits on a table. The coefficient of static friction localid="1657707248507" 渭sbetween table and box is 0.3, and the coefficient of kinetic friction 渭kis 0.2. (a) What is the force required to start the box moving? (b) What is the force required to keep it moving at constant speed? (c) What is the force required to maintain an acceleration of2m/s/s?
