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? (c) The rod will then be how much longer than its unstressed length? (d) When the concrete was poured, the rod should have been stretched by what extension distance from its unstressed length? (e) Find the required original tension T1 in the rod. Figure P12.27
Because atmospheric pressure is about 105 N/m2 and the area of a persons chest is about 0.13 m2, the force of the atmosphere on ones chest is around 13 000 N. In view of this enormous force, why dont our bodies collapse?
A light, cubical container of volume a3 is initially filled with a liquid of mass density as shown in Figure P15.5la. The cube is initially supported by a light string to form a simple pendulum of length Li, measured from the center of mass of the filled container, where Li a. The liquid is allowed to flow from the bottom of the container at a constant rate (dM/dt). At any time t, the level of the liquid in the container is h and the length of the pendulum is L. (measured relative to the instantaneous center of mass) as shown in Figure P15.51b. (a) Find the period of the pendulum as a function of time. (b) What is the period of the pendulum after the liquid completely runs out of the container? Figure P15.51
In about 1657. Otto von Guericke, inventor of the air pump, evacuated a sphere made of two brass hemispheres (Fig. P9.89). Two teams of eight horses each could pull the hemispheres apart only on some trials and then with greatest difficulty, with the resulting sound likened to a cannon firing. Find the force F required to pull the thin-walled evacuated hemispheres apart in terms of R, the radius of the hemispheres, P the pressure inside the hemispheres, and atmospheric pressure P0.

The drawing below shows a hydraulic chamber in which a spring (spring constant = 1620 N/m) is attached to the input piston (A1 = 12.7 cm2), and a rock of mass 38.2 kg rests on the output plunger (A2 = 62.8 cm2). The piston and plunger are nearly at the same height, and each has a negligible mass. By how much is the spring compressed from its unstrained position?

A hydraulic press has a safety feature which consists of a hydraulic cylinder with a piston at one end and a safety valve at the other. The cylinder has a radius of 0.0220 m and the safety valve is simply a 0.00800-m radius circular opening at one end, sealed with a disk. The disk is held in place by a spring with a spring constant of 825 N/m that has been compressed 0.0095 m from its natural length. Determine the magnitude of the minimum force that must be exerted on the piston in order to open the safety valve. N

A light spring of constant k = 80.0 N/m is attached vertically to a table (figure (a)). A 2.30-g balloon is filled with helium (density = 0.179 kg/m3) to a volume of 2.50 m3 and is then connected to the spring, causing the spring to stretch as shown in figure (b). Determine the extension distance L when the balloon is in equilibrium. (The density of air is 1.29 kg/m3.) m
