The piano wire is made from steel (Y = 2.0x1011 N/m²). It has a radius of 0.68 mm and an unstrained length of 0.85 m. The radius of the tuning peg is 1.2 mm. Initially, there is no tension in the wire, but when the tuning peg is turned, tension develops. Find the tension in the wire when the tuning peg is turned through two revolutions.arrow_forwardA 480 mm long thighbone (femur), which is the largest and longest bone in the human body, has a cross sectional area of 7.7 × 10–4 m2. A safety factor of 4 applies and the maximum compressional stress that a bone can withstand is 1.6 × 108 N/m2 before it breaks. Young’s Modulus (E ) of a bone at room temperature is 15 × 109 Pa.

- Some claim that mountain climbers suffer from headaches due not only to a lack of oxygen in the brain, but also to the expansion of the brain in the cranium. Find the fractional change of the brain's volume due to a reduction in pressure from 101 kPa at sea level to 28.3 kPa high in the Himalayas. The bulk modulus is 2.10 GPa. (Another reason the brain expands is the dilation of the blood vessels in the brain in order to deliver more oxygen.)arrow_forwardThe normal force of the ground on the foot can reach three times a runner’s body weight when the foot strikes the pavement.
