Answer:
Farmers who use conventional tillage use compost more than other farmers.
Explanation:
Convectional tillage is good to the environment because it attains the following;
- It increases porosity of the soil
- It loosens the soil thus allowing proper root growth and air exchange
- It is an effective way to incorporate manure and break sod fields
- Tilled soils warm faster in spring
Answer:
a) 0.3
b) 3.6 mm
Explanation:
Given
Length of the pads, l = 200 mm = 0.2 m
Width of the pads, b = 150 mm = 0.15 m
Thickness of the pads, t = 12 mm = 0.012 m
Force on the rubber, P = 15 kN
Shear modulus on the rubber, G = 830 GPa
The average shear strain can be gotten by
τ(average) = (P/2) / bl
τ(average) = (15/2) / (0.15 * 0.2)
τ(average) = 7.5 / 0.03
τ(average) = 250 kPa
γ(average) = τ(average) / G
γ(average) = 250 kPa / 830 kPa
γ(average) = 0.3
horizontal displacement,
δ = γ(average) * t
δ = 0.3 * 12
δ = 3.6 mm
Answer:
the elongation of the metal alloy is 21.998 mm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
K = σT/ (εT)ⁿ
given that metal alloy true stress σT = 345 Mpa, plastic true strain εT = 0.02,
strain-hardening exponent n = 0.22
we substitute
K = 345 / 
K = 815.8165 Mpa
next, we determine the true strain
(εT) = (σT/ K)^1/n
given that σT = 412 MPa
we substitute
(εT) = (412 / 815.8165 )^(1/0.22)
(εT) = 0.04481 mm
Now, we calculate the instantaneous length
= 
given that
= 480 mm
we substitute
=
× 
= 501.998 mm
Now we find the elongation;
Elongation = 
we substitute
Elongation = 501.998 mm - 480 mm
Elongation = 21.998 mm
Therefore, the elongation of the metal alloy is 21.998 mm
