The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas

ticity of the metal and oxide are, respectively, 68 GPa and 380 GPa, what is the
(a) upper-bound, and
(b) lower-bound modulus of elasticity values (in GPa) for a composite that has a composition of 63 vol% of oxide particles.

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's a disadvantage of highest MERV-rated filters?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

3) the pressure drop across high MERV filters is significant.

Explanation:

MERV (Minimum-Efficiency Reporting Value) is used to measure the efficiency of filter to remove particles. A filter of high MERV can filter smaller particles but this causes an increase in reduced air flow that is an increase in pressure drop. High MERV filters capture more particles causing them to get congested faster and thereby increasing pressure drop.

Excessive pressure drop can cause overheating and lead to damage of the filter. The pressure drop can be reduced by increasing the surface area of the filter.

An aircraft is in a steady level turn at a flight speed of 200 ft/s and a turn rate about the local vertical of 5 deg/s. Thrust
notka56 [123]

Answer:

L= 50000 lb

D = 5000 lb

Explanation:

To maintain a level flight the lift must equal the weight in magnitude.

We know the weight is of 50000 lb, so the lift must be the same.

L = W = 50000 lb

The L/D ratio is 10 so

10 = L/D

D = L/10

D = 50000/10 = 5000 lb

To maintain steady speed the thrust must equal the drag, so

T = D = 5000 lb

Isormophous phase diagram
shusha [124]

Answer:

Phase diagrams represent the relationship between temperature and the composition of phases present at equilibrium. An isomorphous system is one in which the solid has the same structure for all compositions. The phase diagram shown is the diagram for Cu-Ni, which is an isomorphous alloy system.

Define the word vision statement​
Elena L [17]

Answer:

A vision statement describes what a company desires to achieve in the long-run, generally in a time frame of five to ten years, or sometimes even longer. It depicts a vision of what the company will look like in the future and sets a defined direction for the planning and execution of corporate-level strategies.

Explanation:

While companies should not be too ambitious in defining their long-term goals, it is critical to set a bigger and further target in a vision statement that communicates a company’s aspirations and motivates the audience. Below are the main elements of an effective vision statement:

-Forward-looking

-Motivating and inspirational

-Reflective of a company’s culture and core values

-Aimed at bringing benefits and improvements to the organization in the future

-Defines a company’s reason for existence and where it is heading
