Grade: PHY11 / Section: - PRACTICE SET No.: 3 Name

This practice set for a physics class contains 4 problems related to concepts like tension in wires, spring oscillations, buoyancy, and pressure changes in fluid flow. Students are asked to calculate tension given strain and modulus of elasticity, period of oscillation for a spring-mass system, densities and displaced volume for an object partially submerged in a liquid, and pressure change for oil flowing through a bent pipe. The document reminds students that no late submissions will be accepted and includes spaces to record scores for each item and an overall grade.

PRACTICE SET 3

1. What is the tension experienced by a steel wire with a cross-sectional area of 0.005 m
2
?
If its strain is limited to only 0.0001. Youngs Modulus for steel is 2x10
11
Pa.
2. A spring has a force constant of 8 N/m. If a 2kg mass is placed as its load, and the
spring is made to oscillate under SHM.
a. What is the period of the vibration?
b. If you wish to reduce the period by placing one more spring of the same force
constant, in which configuration will you place the additional spring? In series or in
parallel? Show proof through calculations.
3. A cubical piece of wood 4 cm per side, has a mass of 30 grams is floating halfway in a
certain liquid. Determine :
a. The (mass) density of the wooden cube.
b. The volume of the displaced liquid.
c. The (mass) density of the liquid.
d. The buoyant force
4. Oil (SG = 0.925) is flowing through a pipeline at a constant speed when it encounters a
vertical bend in the pipe raising it 4.0 m. The cross sectional area of the pipe does not
change. What is the difference in pressure (PB PA) in the portions of the pipe before
and after the rise?
