The cables of a power line are copper-coated steel wire. The overall diameter of the wire is 5/8 in. The steel core has a diamet

er of 1/2 in.
If the maximum tension in a wire is 8000 lb, what are the stresses in the steel and the copper?

Answer:

The stresses in steel and the copper are, 128 ksi and 72.44 ksi, respectively.

Explanation:

In this case, we need to calculate the area of both portions separately.

Thus, we know that:

Inner Radius = Rin = (1/2 in)/2 = 0.25 in

Outer Radius = Rout = (5/8 in)/2 = 0.3125 in

FOR STEEL CORE:

Area of steel core = As = π(Rin)² = π(0.25 in)² = 0.0625 in²

Hence, the stress will be:

σs = Force / As

σs = 8000 lb/ 0.0625 in²

<u>σs = 128 ksi</u>

FOR COPPER:

Area of copper = Ac = π[(Rout)² - (Rin)²]

Ac = π[(0.3125 in)² - (0.25 in)²] = 0.11044 in²

Hence, the stress will be:

σc = Force / Ac

σc = 8000 lb/ 0.11044 in²

<u>σc = 72.44 ksi</u>

1. A cylindrical casting is 0.3 m in diameter and 0.5 m in length. Another casting has the same metal is rectangular in cross-se
Lorico [155]

Based on the Chvorinov's rule, the diference in the <em>solidification</em> times of the two castings is 14.092 times the <em>solidification</em> time of the prism casting.

<h3>How to apply the Chvorinov's rule for casting processes</h3>

The Chvorinov's rule is an empirical method to estimate the cooling time of a casting in terms of a <em>reference</em> time. This rule states that cooling time (<em>t</em>) is directly proportional to the square of the volume (<em>V</em>), in cubic meters, divided to the surface area (<em>A</em>), in square meters. Now we proceed to model each casting:

<h3>Cylindrical casting</h3>

t = C · [0.25π · D² · L/(0.5π · D² + π · D · L)]²

t = C · [0.25 · D · L/(0.5 · D + L)]²    (1)

<h3>Prism casting</h3>

t' = C · [3 · T² · L/(6 · T · L + 2 · T · L + 6 · T²)]²

t' = C · [3 · T · L/(8 · L + 6 · T)]²     (2)

<h3>Relationship between the cross sections of both castings</h3>

3 · T² = 0.25π · D²     (3)

Where:

  • <em>t</em> - Cooling time of the cylindrical casting, in time unit.
  • <em>t'</em> - Cooling time of the prism casting, in time unit.
  • <em>C</em> - Cooling factor, in time unit per square meter.
  • <em>D</em> - Diameter of the cylinder, in meters.
  • <em>L</em> - Length of the casting, in meters.
  • <em>T</em> - Width of the cross section of the prism casting, in meters.

If we know that <em>D =</em> <em>0.3 m</em>, then the thickness of the prism casting is:

T = \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{12} }\cdot D

<em>T ≈ 0.153 m</em>

<em />

And (1) and (2) simplified into these forms:

<h3>Cylindrical casting</h3>

t = C · {0.25π · (0.3 m) · (0.5 m)/[0.5 · (0.3 m) + 0.5 m]}²

t = 0.0329 · C     (1b)

<h3>Prism casting</h3>

t' = C · {3 · (0.153 m) · (0.5 m)/[8 · (0.5 m) + 6 · (0.153 m)]}²

t' = 0.00218 · C     (2b)

Lastly we find the <em>percentual</em> difference in the solidification times of the two castings by using the following expression:

<em>r = (</em>1 <em>- t'/t) ×</em> 100 %

<em>r = (</em>1 <em>-</em> 0.00218<em>/</em>0.0329<em>) ×</em> 100 %

<em>r =</em> 93.374 %

The <em>cooling</em> time of the <em>prism</em> casting is 6.626 % of the <em>solidification</em> time of the <em>cylindrical</em> casting. The diference in the <em>solidification</em> times of the two castings is 14.092 times the <em>solidification</em> time of the <em>prism</em> casting. \blacksquare

Entropy change is evaluated using Eq. 6.2a based on an internally reversible process. Can the entropy change between two states
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

YES

Explanation:

Entropy is an extensive property of the system entropy change that value of entropy change can be determined for any process between the states whether reversible or not. i have attached the formula to calculate entropy change which is independent of whether the system is reversible or not and can be determined for any process.

An experiment compares the initial speed of bullets fired from two handguns: a 9 mm and a 0.44 caliber. The guns are fired into
olasank [31]

Answer:

1.176

Explanation:

When the bullets impact the mass they become embedded on it, it is a plastic collision, therefore momentum is conserved.

v2 * (M + mb) = v1 * mb

Where

v1: muzzle velocity of the bullet

M: mass of the bob

mb: mass of the bullet

v2: mass of the bob with the bullet after being hit

v2 = v1 * mb / (M + mb)

Upon being impacted the bob will acquire speed v2, this implies a kinetic energy. The bob will then move and raise a height h. Upon acheiving the maximum height it will have a speed of zero. At that point all kinetic energy will be converted into potential energy.

Ek = 1/2 (M + mb) * v2^2

Ep = (M + mb) * g * h

Ek = Ep

1/2 (M + mb) * v2^2 = (M + mb) * g * h

1/2 * (v1 * mb / (M + mb))^2 = g * h

1/2 * v1^2 * mb^2 / (M + mb)^2 = g * h

v1^2 = g *h * (M+ mb)^2 / (1/2 * mb^2)

v2 = \sqrt{\frac{g *h * (M+ mb)^2}{\frac{1}{2} * mb^2}}

The height h that it reaches is related to the length L of the pendulum arm and the angle it forms with the vertical.

h = L * (1 - cos(a))

v2 = \sqrt{\frac{g * L * (1 - cos(a)) * (M+ mb)^2}{\frac{1}{2} * mb^2}}

For the 9 mm:

v2 = \sqrt{\frac{9.81 * L * (1 - cos(4.3)) * (10+ 0.006)^2}{\frac{1}{2} * 0.006^2}} = \sqrt{L} * 391

For the 0.44 caliber:

v2 = \sqrt{\frac{9.81 * L * (1 - cos(10.1)) * (10+ 0.012)^2}{\frac{1}{2} * 0.012^2}} = \sqrt{L} * 460

The ratio is 460 / 391 = 1.176

If a particle moving in a circular path of radius 5 m has a velocity function v = 4t2 m/s, what is the magnitude of its total ac
rjkz [21]

Answer:

8.62m/s²

Explanation:

the particle is experiencing both translational and circular motion

v=4t²

a_{t}=\frac{dv}{dt}=8t

at t=1s, \frac{dv}{dt}=8(1)=8m/s²

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

at t=1, v= 4(1)² = 4m/s

a_{c}=4²/5

a_{c}=3.2m/s²

∴ magnitude of total acceleration, a

a=\sqrt{a_{t} ^{2} + a_{c} {2} }

a=\sqrt{8^{2} +3.2^{2}  }

a=\sqrt{64+10.24}

a=\sqrt{74.24}

a=8.62m/s²
