Answer:

<em>c. The tension in the cord connected to the truck is greater than 1200 lb</em>

<em>e. The normal force between A and B is 1200 lb.</em>

Explanation:

The correct question should be

A 1000 lb boulder B is resting on a 200 lb platform A when truck C accidentally accelerates to the right (truck in reverse). Which of the following statements are true (select two answers)?

A free body diagram is shown below.

The normal force between the the boulder and the platform will be the sum of the force, i.e 1000 lb + 200 lb = 1200 lb

For the combination of the bodies to accelerate upwards, then the tension must be greater than the normal force, i.e T > 1200 lb

A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa √m (50 ksi √in.). If, during
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

0.024 m = 24.07 mm

Explanation:

1) Notation

\sigma_c = tensile stress = 200 Mpa

K = plane strain fracture toughness= 55 Mpa\sqrt{m}

\lambda= length of a surface crack (Variable of interest)

2) Definition and Formulas

The Tensile strength is the ability of a material to withstand a pulling force. It is customarily measured in units (F/A), like the pressure. Is an important concept in engineering, especially in the fields of materials and structural engineering.

By definition we have the following formula for the tensile stress:

\sigma_c=\frac{K}{Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}}   (1)

We are interested on the minimum length of a surface that will lead to a fracture, so we need to solve for \lambda

Multiplying both sides of equation (1) by Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}

\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}=K   (2)

Sequaring both sides of equation (2):

(\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda})^2=(K)^2  

\sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi\lambda=K^2   (3)

Dividing both sides by \sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi we got:

\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{K}{Y\sigma_c}]^2   (4)

Replacing the values into equation (4) we got:

\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{55 Mpa\sqrt{m}}{1.0(200Mpa)}]^2 =0.02407m

3) Final solution

So the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture, would be 24.07 mm or more.

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

Technician B is correct in his argument. This is because according to what he said, as the computer pulses stimuli the coil will turn on and off, promoting an increase in the voltage that will cause the fluctuation. Technician A is incorrect because the procedure he indicated imposes that the voltage is checked at the negative terminal and not at the positive.
