The Young’s modulus of aluminum is 69GPa, of nylon is 3GPa, of tungsten is 400GPa, and of copper is 117GPa. If equal-size samples were put under equivalent tensile stresses, how would you rank the materials by the degree to which they would be elongated?
Rank the wires from least elongation (least stretch) to most elongation (most stretch).
1. Aluminum
2. Tungsten
3. Nylon
4. Copper

Which is not a characteristic of a heat pump? a. it is used in air conditioners. b. it uses a refrigerant. c. it requires no work. d. it reverses the normal flow of thermal energy.

Agas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series: process 12: compression with pv= constant from 1 bar and 1 liter to 4 bar. process 23: constant pressure expansion to 1 liter. process 31: constant volume calculate the pressure and volume at each state, and sketch the processes on a p-vdiagram labeled with pressure and volume values at each numbered stat

The position of a crate sliding down a ramp is given by x=(0.05t^3) m, y=(1.7t^2) m, z=(6−0.85t^5/2) m, where t is in seconds. (a) determine the magnitude of the crate's velocity when t = 2 s. (b) determine the magnitude of the crate's acceleration when t = 2 s.
