Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).

Clarification: 1 h / 2 = 30 minutos The whole statement is in the picture A 3kg box rests on a horizontal platform and is tied to another 2kg box by a light rope; What is the minimum coefficient of static friction that allows the two boxes to remain at rest? If the coefficient of static friction is less than that found in point (a) and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the platform is 0.3, determine the time it will take for the 2kg mass to travel the 2m that separate it from the ground, assuming that the system starts from rest. If the rope breaks, after having traveled h / 2, calculate: The acceleration of each block. The time block 2 reaches the ground. The speed of the two blocks, one instant before block 2 hits the ground.

Clarification: 1 h / 2 = 30 minutos The whole statement is in the picture. A block of mass ?1 = 250? is at rest on a plane that makes an angle ? = 30 ° about the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is ?? = 0.100. This block is attached to a second block of mass ?2 = 200? that hangs freely from a rope that passes from a pulley without friction and with negligible mass. When the second block has fallen 30 cm, its speed is; a). 83 cm / s b). 160 cm / s If the rope breaks, after having traveled h / 2, calculate: The acceleration of each block. The time block 2 reaches the ground. The speed of block 2, an instant before it hits the ground and of block 1 when it reaches the end of the ramp.

A bridge, constructed of 11 beams of equal length LLL and negligible mass, supports an object of mass MMM as shown. (Figure 1)Real bridges of this sort have steel rockers at the ends (check one out sometime), these assure that the support forces on the bridge are vertical even when it expands or contracts thermally. Throughout this problem, use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity. A. Assuming that the bridge segments are free to pivot at each intersection point, what is the tension T in the horizontal segment directly above the point where the object is attached? (Figure 2)If you find that the horizontal segment directly above the point where the object is attached is being stretched, indicate this with a positive value for T. If the segment is being compressed, indicate this with a negative value for T.

he FBD of the block should have looked like this. 1. A contestant in a winter sporting event pushes a block of ice of mass m across a frozen lake as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and ice is μs, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk. θ is the angle the force makes with the x-axis. In this part, we are going to set-up Newton's second Law equations for the cases(1) when the ice block just starts moving, and(2) when it is accelerating to the right with an acceleration a. All answers are symbolic. ALL ANSWERS ARE CASE-SENSITIVE. Subpart 1: Newton's Second Law along the y-axis (i) Write Newton's Second Law along the y-axis by adding all forces in the y-direction taking into account their signs (forces pointing upwards are positive and downward are negative) in terms of the normal force N, weight mg, F and θ. In both scenarios, there is no acceleration along the y-direction, therefore, ay=0.…
