Answer: ε₁+ε₂+ε₃ = 0
Explanation: Considering the initial and final volume to be constant which gives rise to the relation:-
l₀l₀l₀=l₁l₂l₃
taking natural log on both sides
Considering the logarithmic Laws of division and multiplication :
ln(AB) = ln(A)+ln(B)
ln(A/B) = ln(A)-ln(B)
Use the image attached to see the definition of true strain defined as
ln(l1/1o)= ε₁
which then proves that ε₁+ε₂+ε₃ = 0
Answer:
(absolute).
Explanation:
Given that
Pressure ratio r
r=8
-----1
P₁(gauge) = 5.5 psig
We know that
Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge pressure
Given that
Atmospheric pressure = 14.5 lbf/in²
P₁(abs) = 14.5 + 5.5 psia
P₁(abs) =20 psia
Now by putting the values in the above equation 1
Therefore the exit gas pressure will be 160 psia (absolute).
