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

Two kilograms of air in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes an isothermal
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

a) 0.39795 kJ/K

b) 79.589.37 kJ

Explanation:

m = Mass of air = 2 kg

Temperature = 200 K

P₁ = Initial pressure = 300 kPa

P₂ = Final pressure = 600 kPa

R = mass-specific gas constant for air = 287.058 J/kgK

a) For isentropic process

∴ Entropy is generated in the process is 0.39795 kJ/K

b)

∴ Amount of lost work is 79.589.37 kJ

Explain how you would solve for total resistance in a parallel circuit versus a series circuit. How would you apply and solve fo
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

No, series parallel, as it implies has components of the circuit configured in both series and parallel. This is typically done to achieve a desired resistance in the circuit. A parallel circuit is a circuit that only has the components hooked in parallel, which would result in a lower total resistance in the circuit than if the components were hooked up in a series parallel configuration.

: A pneumatic "cannon" is a device that launches a low mass projectile from a cylindrical tube using pressurized air stored upst
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Work done = 125π J

Explanation:

Given:

P = P_i * ( 1 - (x/d)^2 / 25)

d = 5.0 cm

x = 5 * d cm = 25d

Pi = 12 bar

Work done = integral ( F . dx )

F (x) = P(x) * A

F (x) =  (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (1 - (x/d)^2 / 25)

Work done = integral ((πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (1 - (x/d)^2 / 25) ) . dx

For Limits 0 < x < 5d

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i  integral ( (1 - (x/d)^2) / 25)) . dx

Integrate the function wrt x

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * ( x - d*(x/d)^3 / 75 )  

Evaluate Limits 0 < x < 5d :

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (5d - 5d / 3)

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (10*d / 3)

Work done = (5 π / 6)d^3 * P_i

Input the values:

Work done = (5 π / 6)(0.05)^3 * (1.2*10^6)

Work done = 125π J

Thermal energy generated by the electrical resistance of a 5-mm-diameter and 4-m-long bare cable is dissipated to the surroundin
ella [17]

Answer:

surface temperature = 128.74⁰c

Explanation:

Given data

diameter of cable = 5 mm = 0.005 m

length of cable = 4 m

T∞ ( surrounding temperature ) = 20⁰c

voltage drop across cable ( dv )= 60 V

current across cable = 1.5 A

attached to this answer is the comprehensive analysis and solution to the problem.

The assumption made is not a good one since the calculated Ts ( surface temperature ) is very much different from the assumed Ts
