Answer:

a) The planar defect that exists is twin boundary defect.

b) The planar defect that exists is the stacking fault.

Explanation:

I am using bold and underline instead of a vertical line.

a. A B C A B C B A C B A

In this stacking sequence, the planar defect that occurs is twin boundary defect because the stacking sequence at one side of the bold and underlined part of the sequence is the mirror image or reflection of the stacking sequence on the other side. This shows twinning. Hence it is the twin boundary inter facial defect.

b. A B C A B C B C A B C

In this stacking sequence the planar defect that occurs is which occurs is stacking fault defect. This underlined region is HCP like sequence. Here BC is the extra plane hence resulting in the stacking fault defect. The fcc stacking sequence with no defects should be A B C A B C A B C A B C. So in the above stacking sequence we can see that A is missing in the sequence. Instead BC is the defect or extra plane. So this disordering of the sequence results in stacking fault defect.

Steam at 4 MPa and 350°C is expanded in an adiabatic turbine to 125kPa. What is the isentropic efficiency (percent) of this turb

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

Explanation:

First, we will find actual properties at given inlet and outlet states by the use of steam tables:

AT INLET:

At 4MPa and 350°C, from the superheated table:

h₁ = 3093.3 KJ/kg

s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

AT OUTLET:

At P₂ = 125 KPa and steam is saturated in vapor state:

h₂ = $h_{g\ at\ 125KPa}$ = 2684.9 KJ/kg

Now, for the isentropic enthalpy, we have:

P₂ = 125 KPa and s₂ = s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

Since s₂ is less than $s_g$ and greater than $s_f$ at 125 KPa. Therefore, the steam is in a saturated mixture state. So:

$x = \frac{s_2-s_f}{s_{fg}} \\\\x = \frac{6.5843\ KJ/kg.K - 1.3741\ KJ/kg.K}{5.91\ KJ/kg.K}\\\\x = 0.88$

Now, we will find $h_{2s}$ (enthalpy at the outlet for the isentropic process):

$h_{2s} = h_{f\ at\ 125KPa}+xh_{fg\ at\ 125KPa}\\\\h_{2s} = 444.36\ KJ/kg + (0.88)(2240.6\ KJ/kg)\\h_{2s} = 2416.088\ KJ/kg$

Now, the isentropic efficiency of the turbine can be given as follows:

$\eta_{turbine} = \frac{h_1-h_2}{h_1-h_{2s}}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2684.9\ KJ/kg}{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2416.088\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{408.4\ KJ/kg}{677.212\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

For some metal alloy, a true stress of 345 MPa (50040 psi) produces a plastic true strain of 0.02. How much will a specimen of t

Strike441 [17]

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 / $0.02^{0.22$

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

$l_i$ = $l_0e^{ET$

given that $l_0$ = 480 mm

we substitute

$l_i$ = $480mm$ × $e^{0.04481$

$l_i$ = 501.998 mm

Now we find the elongation;

Elongation = $l_i - l_0$

we substitute

Elongation = 501.998 mm - 480 mm

Elongation = 21.998 mm

Therefore, the elongation of the metal alloy is 21.998 mm

All brake lights are dimmer than normal. Technician A says that bad bulbs could be the cause. Technician B says that high resist

yarga [219]

Answer:

All Brake lights are dimmer than normal because high resistance in the brake switch could be the cause according to Technician B.

Explanation:

According to Technician A

When the bulb is faulty then no current will flow through bulb and it will be open circuit.So no light will produce in bulb .

According to Technician B

When a high resistance inserted in series circuit the voltage across each resistance is reduced and this cause the light glow dimly.
