Which of the two materials (brittle vs. ductile) usually obtains the highest ultimate strength and why?

Engineering

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.

What is the work required to deflect a linear spring (k=32 kN/m) by 120 cm?

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

the work done by the linear spring will be equal to 23.04 k J

Explanation:

given,

k = 32 k N /m

deflected spring = 120 cm

= 1.2 m

work done by spring can be calculate as

= $\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

= $\dfrac{1}{2}\times 32 \times 1.2^2$

= 23.04 k J

hence, the work done by the linear spring will be equal to 23.04 k J

A 100-horsepower, three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor is connected to a 240-volt line. A dual-element time-delay fuse is t

antoniya [11.8K]

Based on the National Electrical Code (NEC), a 450-Ampere fuse should be used to protect this polyphase (three-phase) squirrel cage inductor motor.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Power rating = 100-horsepower.

Voltage = 240 volt.

<h3>How to determine the correct fuse rating?</h3>

According to Table 430.52 of the National Electrical Code (NEC), a dual-element time delay fuse should be calculated at 175% (1.75) of the full-load current rating for an alternating current (AC) polyphase (three-phase) squirrel cage inductor motor.

In this scenario, the squirrel cage inductor motor didn't list a NEMA design code on its nameplate. Thus, we'll assume that the inductor motor is design B and its fuse rating is given by:

Fuse rating = 248 × 1.75 × 434

In conclusion, the nearest standard fuse size which is above the computed value listed in Section 240.6 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) is 450 amperes.

How do you extablish a chain of dimensions

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Certamente você conhece três dimensões: comprimento, largura e profundidade. Além disso, quando se pensa um pouco fora da caixa também seria possível adicionar a dimensão do tempo.

Provavelmente, algumas pessoas viajam na maionese quando toca-se nesse assunto. Vem em suas mentes universos paralelos e até mesmo realidades alternativas. Mas também não se trata disso.

Explanation:

Basicamente as dimensões são as facetas do que nós percebemos a ser realidade. Existem muitos debates sobre dimensões na física. Um dos que mais chamam a atenção se chama Teoria das Cordas.

Buildings designed to partially heat rooms by passive solar heating rely on

Paha777 [63]

Explanation:Image result for buildings designed to partially heat rooms by passive solar heating rely on

A strictly passive design will use the three natural heat transfer modes exclusively—conduction, convection, and radiation. In some applications, however, fans, ducts, and blowers may help with the distribution of heat through the building

Calculate the diameter of pneumatic cylinder to drive a mechanism. The force exerted by the mechanism is 80 N. The return force

sashaice [31]

Answer:

14.27 mm

Explanation:

Force = 80 Newton

Pressure exerted = 5 bar = 5×10⁵ Pa

Pressure exerted = Force/Area

Area = Force/Pressure

$Area=\frac{80}{500000}\\\Rightarrow Area=0.00016\ m^2$

Area of the cylinder=πd²/4

$\Rightarrow \frac{\pi}{4}d^2=0.00016\\\Rightarrow d^2=\frac{4\times 0.00016}{\pi}\\\Rightarrow d^2=0.0002037\\\Rightarrow d=0.01427\ m$

Hence diameter of cylinder 14.27 mm
