6. A material has a density of 1000 kg/m^3 and a volume of 0.5m^3. Calculate its mass.
7. Which of the following is a solid material that has the highest ability to withstand deformation referred to as its Young modulus?
A. 0.63
B. 1.63
C. 2.27
D. 3.27

Answer

  1. To find the acceleration of the roof, use Newton's second law: F = ma. Here, F = 2000N and m = 1500kg. Thus, a = F/m = 2000N / 1500kg = 1.33 m/s².

  2. The best material for a lightning conductor is A. Copper because it has the highest electrical conductivity.

  3. From the table, the material with the lowest resistivity is Aluminium (10^-8 Ωm), making it the best conductor of electricity.

  4. The material with the highest Young modulus is the one with the steepest slope on the stress-strain graph. Without specific values, this cannot be determined from the given data.

  5. The ratio of the diameter of the material X to the length L is not clear from the given data. More context or information is needed to solve this.

  6. The mass of the material is calculated using the formula: mass = density × volume. Thus, mass = 1000 kg/m³ × 0.5 m³ = 500 kg.

  7. The material with the highest Young modulus is D. 3.27.
