A truck is pulling a car out of a ditch ...

A truck is pulling a car out of a ditch by means fo a steel cable that is `9.1m` long and has a radius of `5mm`. When the car just beings to move, the tension in the cable is `800 N`. If Young's modulus for steel is `2xx10^(11) N//m^(2)` then the strecth in the cable is (neraly)

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the stretch in the steel cable when a truck is pulling a car, we can use the formula for elongation (stretch) given by: \[ \Delta L = \frac{F \cdot L}{A \cdot Y} \] where: - \(\Delta L\) = elongation (stretch) of the cable ...
