Continuous and aligned fiber-reinforced composite with cross-sectional area of 340 mm2 (0.53 in.2) is subjected to a longitudina
Alecsey [184]

(a) 23.4

The fiber-to-matrix load ratio is given by

\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{E_f V_f}{E_m V_m}

where

E_f = 131 GPa is the fiber elasticity module

E_m = 2.4 GPa is the matrix elasticity module

V_f=0.3 is the fraction of volume of the fiber

V_m=0.7 is the fraction of volume of the matrix

Substituting,

\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{(131 GPa)(0.3)}{(2.4 GPa)(0.7)}=23.4 (1)

(b) 44,594 N

The longitudinal load is

F = 46500 N

And it is sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

F=F_f + F_m (2)

We can rewrite (1) as

F_m = \frac{F_f}{23.4}

And inserting this into (2):

F=F_f + \frac{F_f}{23.4}

Solving the equation, we find the actual load carried by the fiber phase:

F=F_f (1+\frac{1}{23.4})\\F_f = \frac{F}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=\frac{46500 N}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=44,594 N

(c) 1,906 N

Since we know that the longitudinal load is the sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

F=F_f + F_m (2)

Using

F = 46500 N

F_f = 44594 N

We can immediately find the actual load carried by the matrix phase:

F_m = F-F_f = 46,500 N - 44,594 N=1,906 N

(d) 437 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the fiber phase is

A_f = A V_f

where

A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2 is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting V_f=0.3, we have

A_f = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.3)=102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2

And the magnitude of the stress on the fiber phase is

\sigma_f = \frac{F_f}{A_f}=\frac{44594 N}{102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=4.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 437 MPa

(e) 8.0 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the matrix phase is

A_m = A V_m

where

A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2 is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting V_m=0.7, we have

A_m = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.7)=238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2

And the magnitude of the stress on the matrix phase is

\sigma_m = \frac{F_m}{A_m}=\frac{1906 N}{238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=8.0\cdot 10^6 Pa = 8.0 MPa

(f) 3.34\cdot 10^{-3}

The longitudinal modulus of elasticity is

E = E_f V_f + E_m V_m = (131 GPa)(0.3)+(2.4 GPa)(0.7)=41.0 Gpa

While the total stress experienced by the composite is

\sigma = \frac{F}{A}=\frac{46500 N}{340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2}=1.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 0.137 GPa

So, the strain experienced by the composite is

\epsilon=\frac{\sigma}{E}=\frac{0.137 GPa}{41.0 GPa}=3.34\cdot 10^{-3}

A piece of plastic with a mass of 15 g is
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The density of plastic is equal to 0.6 g/mL.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of piece of plastic, m = 15 g

It is placed in a graduated cylinder. The water  level in the graduated cylinder rises from  30 mL to 55 mL when the plastic is added.

We need to find the density of plastic.

Rise in volume = 55 mL - 30 mL

= 25 mL

The density of an object is given by :

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{15\ g}{25\ mL}\\\\d=0.6\ g/mL

So, the density of plastic is equal to 0.6 g/mL.

A box of mass 50 kg is pushed hard enough to set it in motion across a flat surface. Then a 99-N pushing force is needed to keep
salantis [7]
The box is kept in motion at constant velocity by a force of F=99 N. Constant velocity means there is no acceleration, so the resultant of the forces acting on the box is zero. Apart from the force F pushing the box, there is only another force acting on it in the horizontal direction: the frictional force F_f which acts in the opposite direction of the motion, so in the opposite direction of F.
Therefore, since the resultant of the two forces must be zero,
F-F_f=0
so
F=F_f

The frictional force can be rewritten as
F_f = \mu m g
where m=50 kg, g=9.81 m/s^2. Re-arranging, we can solve this equation to find \mu, the coefficient of dynamic friction:
\mu =  \frac{F}{mg}= \frac{99 N}{(50 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}  =0.20
