Answer:

a) 254.6 GPa

b) 140.86 GPa

Explanation:

a) Considering the expression of rule of mixtures for upper-bound and calculating the modulus of elasticity for upper bound;

Ec(u) = EmVm + EpVp

To calculate the volume fraction of matrix, 0.63 is substituted for Vp in the equation below,

Vm + Vp = 1

Vm = 1 - 0.63

Vm = 0.37

In the first equation,

Where

Em = 68 GPa, Ep = 380 GPa, Vm = 0.37 and Vp = 0.63,

The modulus of elasticity upper-bound is,

Ec(u) = EmVm + EpVp

Ec(u) = (68 x 0.37) + (380 x 0.63)

Ec(u) = 254.6 GPa.

b) Considering the express of rule of mixtures for lower bound;

Ec(l) = (EmEp)/(VmEp + VpEm)

Substituting values into the equation,

Ec(l) = (68 x 380)/(0.37 x 380) + (0.63 x 68)

Ec(l) = 25840/183.44

Ec(l) = 140.86 GPa

What is the maximum value of the bending stress at the critical cross-section?
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The bending stress increases linearly away from the neutral axis until the maximum values at the extreme fibers at the top and bottom of the beam. The maximum bending stress is given by: where c is the centroidal distance of the cross section (the distance from the centroid to the extreme fiber).

A 5-mm-thick stainless steel strip (k = 21 W/m•K, rho = 8000 kg/m3, and cp = 570 J/kg•K) is being heat treated as it moves throu
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

Explanation:

The characteristic length of the strip is given by;

L_c = \frac{V}{A} = \frac{LA}{2A} = \frac{5*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.0025 \ m

The Biot number is given as;

B_i = \frac{h L_c}{k}\\\\B_i = \frac{80*0.0025}{21} \\\\B_i = 0.00952

B_i < 0.1,  thus apply lumped system approximation to determine the constant time for the process;

\tau = \frac{\rho C_p V}{hA_s} = \frac{\rho C_p L_c}{h}\\\\\tau = \frac{8000* 570* 0.0025}{80}\\\\\tau = 142.5 s

The time for the heating process is given as;

t = \frac{d}{V} \\\\t = \frac{3 \ m}{0.01 \ m/s} = 300 s

Apply the lumped system approximation relation to determine the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace;

T(t) = T_{ \infty} + (T_i -T_{\infty})e^{-t/ \tau}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (20 -930)e^{-300/ 142.5}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (-110.85)\\\\T_{(t)} = 819.15 \ ^0 C

Therefore, the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

One kilogram of water fills a 150-L rigid container at an initial pressure of 2 MPa. The container is then cooled to 40∘C. Deter
lukranit [14]

The pressure of water is 7.3851 kPa

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data,

V = 150×10^{-3} m^{3}

m = 1 Kg

P_{1} = 2 MPa

T_{2}  = 40°C

The waters specific volume is calculated:

v_{1} = V/m

Here, the waters specific volume at initial condition is v_{1}, the containers volume is V, waters mass is m.

v_{1} = 150×10^{-3} m^{3}/1

v_{1} = 0.15 m^{3}/ Kg

The temperature from super heated water tables used in interpolation method between the lower and upper limit for the specific volume corresponds 0.15 m^{3}/ Kg and 0.13 m^{3}/ Kg.

T_{1}= 350+(400-350) \frac{0.15-0.13}{0.1522-0.1386}

T_{1} = 395.17°C

Hence, the initial temperature is 395.17°C.

The volume is constant in the rigid container.

v_{2} = v_{1}= 0.15 m^{3}/ Kg

In saturated water labels for T_{2}  = 40°C.

v_{f} = 0.001008 m^{3}/ Kg

v_{g} = 19.515 m^{3}/ Kg

The final state is two phase region v_{f} < v_{2} < v_{g}.

In saturated water labels for T_{2}  = 40°C.

P_{2} = P_{Sat} = 7.3851 kPa

P_{2} = 7.3851 kPa
