A 0.900 m-long metal wire has a circular cross section of diameter 0.950 mm. One end of the wire is fixed, and the other end has a 2.00 kg object attached to it. Determine the angular speed of the object (in rad/s) required to produce a strain of 2.00 x 10, if the wire is made from aluminum. (The Young's modulus for aluminum is 7.00 x 1010 N/m2.)

Transcribed Image Text:**Physics Problem: Determining Angular Speed to Produce a Specific Strain**
**Problem Statement:**
A 0.900 m-long metal wire has a circular cross-section of diameter 0.950 mm. One end of the wire is fixed, and the other end has a 2.00 kg object attached to it. Determine the angular speed of the object (in rad/s) required to produce a strain of \(2.00 \times 10^{-2}\) if the wire is made from aluminum. (The Young's modulus for aluminum is \(7.00 \times 10^{10} \, \text{N/m}^2\).)
**Instructions:**
1. **Sketch the Situation**: The object is moving in a circle, so the centripetal force is due to the horizontal component of the tension.
2. **Apply Newton’s Second Law**: Find an expression for the tension \(T\).
3. **Apply Young's Modulus Equation**: Write the Young's modulus equation and solve for \(T\).
4. **Equate Expressions**: Set your two expressions equal and solve for the angular speed \( \omega \) (in rad/s).
**Example Calculation (Incorrect):**
- Given answer: 7.42 (marked incorrect)
---
**Detailed Steps:**
1. **Sketch the Situation:**
- Draw a vertical wire of length 0.900 m.
- Attach a mass of 2.00 kg at the bottom end of the wire.
- The object is moving in a horizontal circle.
2. **Newton's Second Law:**
- The centripetal force equation, \(F = m \omega^2 r\), where \(m\) is the mass, \(\omega\) is the angular speed, and \(r\) is the radius (length of the wire).
3. **Young's Modulus Equation:**
- \( \text{Young's modulus}, E = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}}\)
- Stress, \(\sigma = \frac{T}{A}\) where \(T\) is the tension and \(A\) is the cross-sectional area.
- Strain, \(\varepsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L} = 2.00 \times 10^{-2}\)
4. **Area Calculation:**
- Circular cross-section area
