Consider a cylindrical nickel wire 1.9 mm in diameter and 3.2 × 104 mm long. calculate its elongation when a load of 260 n is applied. assume that the deformation is totally elastic and that the elastic modulus for nickel is 207 gpa (or 207 × 109 n/m2).

Heat is added to a piston-cylinder device filled with 2 kg of air to raise its temperature 400 c from an initial temperature of t1 27 cand pressure of pi 1 mpa. the process is isobaric process. find a)-the final pressure p2 b)-the heat transfer to the air.
