11th Physics Topic Hooke’s Law – Stress and Strain from Mechanical Properties of Solid

11th Physics Topic - Hooke’s Law – Stress and Strain from Mechanical Properties of Solid 

The ratio of the magnitude of the applied force to the cross-sectional area of the wire is called the stress acting on the wire, while the ratio of the change in length to the original length of the wire is called the strain of the wire. Above equation is a statement of Hooke’s law of elasticity, which says that in an elastic body the stress is directly proportional to the strain, that is,
                                                        stress ∝ strain
The stress is what is applied to the body, while the resulting effect is called the strain. To make an equality out of this proportion, we must introduce a constant of proportionality. This constant depends on the type of material used, since the molecules, and hence the molecular forces of each material, are different. This constant, called Young’s modulus of elasticity is denoted by the letter Y. thus above equation becomes
                                                       F/A = Y ∆L/LO
If we apply a force to a rubber band, we find that the rubber band stretches. Similarly, if we attach a wire to a support, as shown in figure 1, and sequentially figure 2 stretching an object. Apply forces of magnitude F, 2F, and 3F to the wire, we find that the wire stretches by an amount ∆L, 2∆L, and 3∆L, respectively. (Note that the amount of stretching is greatly exaggerated in the diagram for illustrative purposes.)
The deformation, ∆L, is directly proportional to the magnitude of the applied force F and is written mathematically as
∆L ∝ F

One to One Correspondence and Equivalent Sets Suppose the members of the family are dinning and plates are prepared on the table then there is a One to one correspondence between the set of family members and the plates prepared. We will indicate this correspondence by the symbol If each element of a set A is associated with one and only one element of a set B and each element of B is associated with one and only one element of set A, then the sets A and B are said to be in one to one correspondence. If both the sets are finite and if they are in one to one correspondence, it is obvious that they have the same number of elements. If two sets have the same number of elements, they are said to be equivalent sets. Using symbol, we write A B. Between two equivalent sets, a one to one corr...

What is the difference between human and physical capital

Difference between human and physical capital Human capital refers to a worker's abilities, education, ability, and other attributes that influence his or her productive capacity and earning potential. Physical capital Presence of trade barriers lead to mobility restriction. Process of formation is economic and technical. Physical capital is separable from the owner. Possibility of trading physical capital in the market exists. Continuous use leads to depreciation. Financial statements are present. Human capital Culture and nationality lead to mobility restriction. Process of formation is conscious and social process. Human capital is not separable Services rendered by the human capital can only be sold. Ageing leads to the depreciation but it can be minimized up to some extent. Financial statements are absent.
