Answer:

b). False

Explanation:

A refractory material is a type of material that can withstand high temperatures without loosing its strength. They are used in reactors, furnaces, kilns, etc.

Refractory materials are certain super alloys and ceramics materials.

Properties of refractory materials :

1. Refractory materials have high melting point.

2.They acts barriers between high heat zone and low heat zone.

3. The specific heat of refractory material is very low.

4. Refractories that have high bulk densities are better in quality.

Hence, Refractory materials have a very high melting temperature.

A cylindrical metal specimen having an original diameter of 11.34 mm and gauge length of 53.3 mm is pulled in tension until frac

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

a) 70.29 %

b) 37%

Explanation:

percent reduction can be found from:

PR = 100*(π(do/2)^2-π(df/2)^2)/π(do/2)^2

= 100*(π(11.34/2)^2-π(6.21/2)^2)/π(11.34/2)^2

=70.29 %

percent elongation can be found from:

EL =L_f - Lo/Lo*100

= (73.17 -53.3/53.3)*100

= 37%

Question

Determine the average water exit velocity

Answer:

53.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Volume flow rate, $Q=16 m^{3}/min$

Diameter d= 8cm= 0.08 m

Assumptions

The flow is jet flow hence momentum-flux correction factor is unity
Gravitational force is not considered
The flow is steady, frictionless and incompressible
Water is discharged to the atmosphere hence pressure is ignored

We know that Q=AV and making v the subject then

$V=\frac {Q}{A}$ where V is the exit velocity and A is area

Area, $A=\frac {\pi d^{2}{4}$ where d is the diameter

By substitution

$V=\frac {16\times 4}{\pi 0.08^{2}}=3183.098862 m/min$

To convert v to m/s from m/s, we simply divide it by 60 hence

$V=\frac {3183.098862 m/min}{60 s}=53.0516477 m/s\approx 53.05 m/s$

While discussing what affects the amount of pressure exerted by the brakes: Technician A says that the shorter the line, the mor

harina [27]

Answer:

Only Technician B is right.

Explanation:

The cylindrical braking system for a car works through the mode of pressure transmission, that is, the pressure applied to the brake pedals, is transmitted to the brake pad through the cylindrical piston.

Pressure applied on the pedal, P(pedal) = P(pad)

And the Pressure is the applied force/area for either pad or pedal. That is, P(pad) = Force(pad)/A(pad) & P(pedal) = F(pedal)/A(pedal)

If the area of piston increases, A(pad) increases and the P(pad) drops, Meaning, the pressure transmitted to the pad reduces. And for most cars, there's a pressure limit for the braking system to work.

If the A(pad) increases, P(pad) decreases and the braking force applied has to increase, to counter balance the dropping pressure and raise it.

This whole setup does not depend on the length of the braking lines; it only depends on the applied force and cross sectional Area (size) of the piston.
