The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the elongation of the nylon rope and the corresponding change in its diameter when a monkey weighing 100 N jumps onto it. We will use the Young's modulus formula and the relationship between elongation and change in diameter. ### Step 1: Gather the given data - Length of the rope (L) = 4.5 m - Diameter of the rope (D) = 6 mm = 6 × 10^-3 m - Radius of the rope (r) = D/2 = 3 × 10^-3 m - Weight of the monkey (Force, F) = 100 N - Young's modulus of nylon (Y) = 0.2 × 10^11 N/m² (Note: The value provided in the transcript is 4.8 × 10^11 N/m², which seems to be a mistake. We will use the given value of 0.2 × 10^11 N/m² for our calculations.) ### Step 2: Calculate the cross-sectional area (A) of the rope The cross-sectional area of the rope can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle: \[ A = \pi r^2 \] \[ A = \pi (3 \times 10^{-3})^2 \] \[ A = \pi (9 \times 10^{-6}) \] \[ A \approx 3.14 \times 9 \times 10^{-6} \] \[ A \approx 28.26 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Step 3: Use Young's modulus to find the elongation (ΔL) The formula for Young's modulus is given by: \[ Y = \frac{F}{A} \cdot \frac{L}{\Delta L} \] Rearranging this formula to find ΔL gives: \[ \Delta L = \frac{F \cdot L}{A \cdot Y} \] Substituting the values: \[ \Delta L = \frac{100 \cdot 4.5}{28.26 \times 10^{-6} \cdot 0.2 \times 10^{11}} \] \[ \Delta L = \frac{450}{5.652 \times 10^{5}} \] \[ \Delta L \approx 7.96 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \] \[ \Delta L \approx 0.796 \, \mu m \] ### Step 4: Calculate the change in diameter (ΔD) Using Poisson's ratio (σ), we can find the change in diameter: \[ \sigma = -\frac{\Delta D / D}{\Delta L / L} \] Rearranging gives: \[ \Delta D = -\sigma \cdot \frac{\Delta L}{L} \cdot D \] Substituting the values: \[ \Delta D = -0.2 \cdot \frac{7.96 \times 10^{-6}}{4.5} \cdot (6 \times 10^{-3}) \] \[ \Delta D = -0.2 \cdot 1.769 \times 10^{-6} \cdot 6 \times 10^{-3} \] \[ \Delta D \approx -2.12 \times 10^{-9} \, \text{m} \] \[ \Delta D \approx -2.12 \, \text{nm} \] ### Final Answers - Elongation of the rope (ΔL) = 0.796 μm - Change in diameter (ΔD) = -2.12 nm

To solve the problem, we need to find the elongation of the nylon rope and the corresponding change in its diameter when a monkey weighing 100 N jumps onto it.
