A composite beam of aluminum (Ea 5 72 GPa) and steel (Es 5 190 GPa) has a width b 5 25 mm and heights ha 5 42 mm and hs 5 68 mm, respectively. A bending moment is applied about the z axis resulting in a maximum stress in the aluminum of 55 MPa. The maximum stress in the steel is approximately:
(A) 86 MPa
(B) 90 MPa
(C) 94 MPa
(D) 98 MPa
A 1.5-kg mass attached to spring with a force constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track
At t= 0, the mass is released from rest at x= 10.0 cm. (That is, the spring is stretched by 10.00 cm.) (a) Determine the frequency of the oscillations. (b) Determine the maximum speed of the mass. Where does the maximum speed occur? (c) Determine the maximum acceleration of the mass. Where does the maximum acceleration occur? (d) Determine the total energy of the oscillating system. (e) Express the displacement as a function of time.
A skydiver jumps out of a hovering helicopter. A few seconds later, another skydiver jumps out, so they both fall along the same vertical line relative to the helicopter. Both skydivers fall with the same acceleration. (Assume g is constant.) The difference in their velocities
1.increases. 2.decreases. 3.stays the same.
