Read the following two statements below carefully and state, with reasons, if it is true or false. (a) The Young’s modulus of rubber is greater than that of steel; (b) The stretching of a coil is determined by its shear
A mild steel wire of length 1.0 m and cross-sectional area `0.50 × 10^(-2)` c`m^2` is stretched, well within its elastic limit, horizontally between two pillars. A mass of 100 g is suspended from the mid-point of the wire. Calculate the depression at the
Water is more elastic than air.
Two different types of rubber are found to have the stress – strain curves as shown in the figure stress 1) In what ways do these curves suffer from the stress- strain curve of a metal wire?2) Which of the two rubbers A and B would you prefer to be installed in the working of a heavy machinery3) Which of these two rubbers would you choose for a car
Given below are some functions of x and t to represent the displacement (transverse or longitudinal) of an elastic wave. State which of these represent (i) a travelling wave, (ii) a stationary wave or (iii) none at all: (a) y = 2 cos (3x) sin (10t) (b) `y = 2sqrt(x-vt)` (c) y = 3 sin (5x – 0.5t) + 4 cos (5x – 0.5t) (d) y = cos x sin t + cos 2x sin
