Describe the two step process used to calculate thermal stress in a beam with ends which are rigidly fixed.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

A 60.0-kg satellite is in orbit a distance 2000 km above the surface of the earth. The mass of the earth is 5.976 x 1024 kg and the radius of the earth is 6.378  106 m.
 
  (a) What is the change in the gravitational potential energy if the satellite moves to a circular orbit 5000 km above the surface of the earth?
  (b) What is the change in kinetic energy if the satellite moves to a circular orbit 5000 km above the surface of the earth?
  (c) How much work must be done on the satellite to move it to a circular orbit 5000 km above the surface of the earth?

Answer to Question 1

(1 ) the beam tries to expand (or contract) by some amount due to a temperature change
(2 ) the solid in contact with the beam exerts a force to compress (or expand) it, keeping it at its original length

(a) 7.53  108 J
(b) -3.76 x 108 J
(c) 3.76 x 108 J

Did you know?

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.

Parkinson's disease is both chronic and progressive. This means that it persists over a long period of time and that its symptoms grow worse over time.
