Question
7. A 6.0 m cylindrical steel beam 3.50 cm in diameter supports an overhead walkway. The beam is designed to not stretch more than 5.0 x 10-5 m. What is the maximum load that the beam can withstand? If we assume an average mass of a person to be 75.0 kg, could the walkway support two people? Y steel = 20 x 101º N/m?
6. A cellist tunes the C-string of her instrument to a fundamental frequency of 65.4 Hz.
The vibrating portion of the string is 60.0 cm long and has a mass of 14.4 g. With what
tension must she stretch that portion of the string?
