Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
Torque T = 2300 lb - ft
Bending moment M = 1500 lb - ft
axial thrust P = 2500 lb
yield points for tension σY= 100 ksi
yield points for shear τY = 50 ksi
Using maximum-shear-stress theory

where;






where;






Let say :

Then :



According to trial and error;
c = 0.75057 in
Replacing c into equation (1)




The required diameter d = 2c
d = 1.50 in or 0.125 ft
Answer:
a) 22.5number
b) 22.22 m length
Explanation:
Given data:
Bridge length = 500 m
width of bridge = 12 m
Maximum temperature = 40 degree C
minimum temperature = - 35 degree C
Maximum expansion can be determined as

where , \alpha is expansion coefficient
degree C
SO, 

number of minimum expansion joints is calculated as

b) length of each bridge

Answer:
Technician B only is correct
Explanation:
The last stage of gears found between the vehicle transmission system and the wheels is the final drive ratio. The function of the final drive gear assembly is to enable a gear reduction control stage to reduce the rotation per minute and increase the wheel torque, such that the vehicle performance can be adjusted and the final gear ratio can be between 3:1 and 4.5:1 not 1:1
Therefore, technician B only is correct
