Question
A child slides across a floor in a pair of rubber-soled shoes. The friction force acting on each foot is 20.0 N. The footprint area of each shoe sole is 14.0 cm2, and the thickness of each sole is 5.00 mm. Find the horizontal distance by which the upper and lower surfaces of each sole are offset. The shear modulus of the rubber is 3.00 MN/m2.

- A man with a mass of 68.3 kg stands on one foot. His femur has a cross-sectional area of 8.00 cm2 and an uncompressed length 50.4 cm. Young’s modulus for compression of the human femur is 9.40 × 109 N/m2. What is the fractional length change of the femur when the person moves from standing on two feet to standing on one foot?arrow_forwardBetween each pair of vertebrae in the spinal column is a cylindrical disc of cartilage. Suppose that such a particular disc of cartilage has a a radius of 3.118 cm (100cm = 1 meter) and a thickness of 6.877 mm (1000mm= 1meter). The shear modulus of cartilage is 1.2 × 107 N/m2. Suppose that a shearing force of magnitude 9 N is applied parallel to the top surface of the disc while the bottom surface remains fixed in place. How far does the top surface move relative to the bottom surface in microns (1 meter = 106 microns)?arrow_forwardA child slides across a floor in a pair of rubber-soled shoes.

After installation and construction, the length is remeasured and found to be l = 14.98 m (figure b). Determine Young's Modulus Y in N/m2 for the beam if it supports a mass m = 35000 kg and has a side length d = 1.9 m. b) Suppose that after the beam is installed it needs to be repaired. The weight it supports is removed and replaced with a new mass m2 (figure c). After the new mass is supported, the side length is remeasured and found to be larger with a difference of Δd. Assuming that this side length deformation is uniform and small, write an expression for determining Poisson's ratio v for this beam if its Young's modulus Y is known.arrow_forwardOne end of a steel rod of radius R = 10mm and length L = 90 cm is held in a vise.
