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).

Question

a. A 1200-N uniform boom of length 2.00 m is supported by a cable, as shown in the figure. The boom is pivoted at the bottom, and a 2000-N weight hands from its top. Find the tension in the cable and the components of the reaction force exerted on the boom by the floor. For the next two parts you can assume that the 2000-N weight is concentrated at the top end of the boom. b. Determine the total moment of inertia of the boom/weight system around the pivot point. c. The cable now breaks, and the boom pivots until the right end hits the floor. Determine the velocity of the right end at the instant before it hits the floor.
The uniform 10-kg rod AB is supported by a ball-and-socket joint at A and by the cord CG that is attached to the midpoint G of the rod.

A horizontal 4.0 m long 5.0 N uniform bar at one end is attached to a wall by a frictionless hinge; and at the middle of the bar there is a vertical cable pulling down 7.0 N, and at the middle of the bar there is also a cable that is at 45 ° to the horizontal pulling up as shown. ii) What is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the force on the bar due to the hinge?
The pole in the figure is a a 90° bend in a power line and is therefore subjected to more shear force than poles in straight parts of the line. The tension in the two wires at the top of the pole is 3.5 × 104 N, and both wires are at an angle of 80° with respect to the pole. The pole is 15 m tall, has an 16 cm diameter and can be considered to have half the strength of hardwood (hardwood has a Young's modulus of 1.5×1010 N/m2 and a shear modulus of 1×010 N/m2). a) First ignore the guy wire (Tgw). Calculate the compression of the pole, in millimeters. b) Still ignoring the guy wire, Find how much it bends in mm to the right. c) Now find the tension in the guy wire used to keep the pole straight if it is attached to the top of the pole at an angle of 30° with the vertical in Newtons. (The guy wire must be in the opposite direction of the bend.)
