A single crystal of a metal that has the FCC crystal structure is oriented such that a tensile stress is applied parallel to the
algol13

Stress required to cause slip on in the direction [ 1 1 0 ] is 7.154 MPa

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Stress Direction, A = [1 0 0 ]

Slip plane = [ 1 1 1]

Normal to slip plane, B = [ 1 1 1 ]

Critical stress, Sc = 2.92 MPa

Let the direction of slip on = [ 1 1 0 ]

Let Ф be the angle between A and B

cos Ф = A.B/ |A| |B| = [ 1 0 0 ] [1 1 1] / √1 √3

cos Ф = 1/√3

σ = Sc / cosФ cosλ

For slip along [ 1 1 0 ]

cos λ = [ 1 1 0 ] [ 1 0 0 ] / √2 √1

cos λ = 1/√2

Therefore,

σ = 2.92 / 1/√3 1/√2

σ = √6 X 2.92 MPa = 2.45 X 2.92 = 7.154MPa

Therefore, stress required to cause slip on in the direction [ 1 1 0 ] is 7.154MPa

Does mechanical advantage have units? Explain your answer.
motikmotik

Answer:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the load (the resistance overcome by a machine) to the effort (the force applied). For an ideal (without friction) mechanism, it is also equal to: There is no unit for mechanical advantages since the unit for both input and output forces cancel out.
