Answer:

Explanation:

Ductile materials typically have a higher ultimate strength because they stretch absorbing more energy before breaking. While fragile materials snap in half before larger deformations due to larger loads occur.

It should be noted that when ductile materials stretch their section becomes smaller, and in that reduced section the stresses concentrate.

Answer:

1791 secs ≈ 29.85 minutes

Explanation:

( Initial temperature of slab ) T1 = 300° C

temperature of water ( Ts ) = 25°C

T2 ( final temp of slab ) = 50°C

distance between slab and water jet = 25 mm

<u>Determine how long it will take to reach T2</u>

First calculate the thermal diffusivity

∝ = 50 / ( 7800 * 480 ) = 1.34 * 10^-5 m^2/s

<u>next express Temp as a function of time </u>

T( 25 mm , t ) = 50°C

next calculate the time required for the slab to reach 50°C at a distance of 25mm

attached below is the remaining part of the detailed solution
