As the initially empty urinary bladder fills with urine and expands, its internal pressure increases by 3300 Pa, which triggers themicturition reflex (the feeling of the need to urinate). The figure shows a horizontal, square section of the bladder wall with an edgelength of 0.010 m. Because the bladder is stretched, four tension forces of equal magnitude T act on the square section, one at eachedge, and each force is directed at an angle e below the horizontal. What is the magnitude T of the tension force acting on one edge ofthe section when the uinternal bladder pressure is 3300 Pa and each of the four tension forces is directed 3.2° below the horizontal?

The magnitude T of the tension force acting on one edge of the section is 0.95 N.Explanation:…

The lintel of prestressed reinforced concrete in Figure P12.27 is 1.50 m long. The concrete encloses one steel reinforcing rod with cross-sectional area 1.50 cm2. The rod joins two strong end plates. The cross-sectional area of the concrete perpendicular to the rod is 50.0 cm2. Youngs modulus for the concrete is 30.0 109 N/m2. After the concrete cures and the original tension T1 in the rod is released, the concrete is to be under compressive stress 8.00 106 N/m2. (a) By what distance will the rod compress the concrete when the original tension in the rod is released? (b) What is the new tension T2 in the rod?

As the initially empty urinary bladder fills with urine and expands, its internal pressure increases by 3300 Pa, which triggers the micturition reflex (the feeling of the need to urinate). The figure shows a horizontal, square section of the bladder wall with an edge length of 0.010 m. Because the bladder is stretched, four tension forces of equal magnitude T act on the square section, one at each edge, and each force is directed at an angle & below the horizontal. What is the magnitude T of the tension force acting on one edge of the section when the uinternal bladder pressure is 3300 Pa and each of the four tension forces is directed 3.2° below the horizontal?
