A polystyrene component must not fail when a tensile stress of 1.25 MPa (180 psi) is applied. Determine the maximum allowable su

rface crack length if the surface energy of polystyrene is 0.50 J/m2 (2.86 103 in.-lbf/in.2 ). Assume a modulus of elasticity of 3.0 GPa (0.435 106 psi).

Answer:

Maximum allowable surface crack length = l = 0.000611m

Explanation:

Tensile stress = σ = 1.25 MPa = 1.25 × 10^6 N/m2

Surface energy of polystyrene = Es = 0.50 J/m2

Elastic Mudolus = E = 3 GPa = 3 × 10^9 N/m2

Maximum allowable surface crack length = l = ?

We know that:

l = 2EEs/πσ^2 ....... (i)

By putttin the values in equation (i)

l = (2)(0.50)(3 × 10^9)/(3.14)(1.25 × 10^6)^2

l = 0.000611m

Hence, the Maximum allowable surface crack length will be 0.000611m.

The mechanical advantage of a simple machine is the measure of its amplified force gain.

The mechanical advantage is defined as the force amplified by a machine to the force required to generate such output.

$Mathematically\ mechanical\ advantage\ MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$F_{o} \ and\ F_{i}$ are the amplified force and applied force. We may also consider them as output and input force.

In the given question, the force given to the steering wheel is 50 N.

The output force produced by the steering wheel is 3750 N.

Hence the mechanical advantage will be-

$MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$=\frac{3750\ N}{50\ N}$

$=75$ [ans]

A solenoid has a radius Rs = 14.0 cm, length L = 3.50 m, and Ns = 6500 turns. The current in the solenoid decreases at the rate

babymother [125]

Answer:

E = 58.7 V/m

Explanation:

As we know that flux linked with the coil is given as

$\phi = NBA$

here we have

$A = \pi R_s^2$

$B = \mu_o N i/L$

now we have

$\phi = N(\mu_o N i/L)(\pi R_s^2)$

now the induced EMF is rate of change in magnetic flux

$EMF = \frac{d\phi}{dt} = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

now for induced electric field in the coil is linked with the EMF as

$\int E. dL = EMF$

$E(2\pi r_c) = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L$

$E = \frac{\mu_o N^2 R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}}{2 r_c L}$

$E = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})(6500^2)(0.14^2)(79)}{2(0.20)(3.50)}$

$E = 58.7 V/m$

1. A 100-kg crate is pulled across a warehouse floor using a rope with a force of 250 N at an angle of 45o from the horizontal.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

(a) The net force is 80.394 N

The acceleration of the crate is 0.804 m/s²

(b) the final velocity of the crate is 5.02 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the crate, m = 100 kg

applied force, F = 250 N

angle of inclination, θ = 45°

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.12

Applied force in y-direction, $F_y = Fsin \theta = 250sin45 = 176.78 \ N$

Applied force in x-direction, $F_x = Fcos \theta = 250cos45 = 176.78 \ N$

The normal force is calculated as;

N + Fy -W = 0

N = W - Fy

N = (100 x 9.8) - 176.78

N = 980 - 176.78 = 803.22 N

The frictional force is given by;

Fk = μN

Fk = 0.12 x 803.22

Fk = 96.386 N

(a) The net force is given by;

$F_{net} = F_x - F_k\\\\F_{net} = 176.78-96.386\\\\F_{net} = 80.394 \ N$

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

$a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}\\\\ a = \frac{80.394}{100}\\\\ a = 0.804 \ m/s^2$

(b) the velocity of the crate after 5.0 s

$F = ma= \frac{m(v-u)}{t} \\\\Ft =m(v-u)\\\\v-u = \frac{Ft}{m}\\\\ v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u\\\\v = \frac{F_{net}*t}{m} + u\\\\v = \frac{80.394*5}{100} + 1\\\\v = 5.02 \ m/s$
