B1) 20 pts. The thickness of each of the two sheets to be resistance spot welded is 3.5 mm. It is desired to form a weld nugget

that is 5.5 mm in diameter and 5.0 mm thick after 0.3 sec welding time. The unit melting energy for a certain sheet metal is 9.5 J/mm3 . The electrical resistance between the surfaces is 140 micro ohms, and only one third of the electrical energy generated will be used to form the weld nugget (the rest being dissipated), determine the minimum current level required.

Answer:

I = 8975.95 A            

Explanation:

Given :

Diameter of the nugget, D = 5.5 mm

Length of the nugget, l = 5.0 mm

Therefore, volume of the nugget,

$ V = \frac{\pi}{4}D^2l$

  = $\frac{\pi}{4}(5.5)^25 = 118.73\ mm^3

Now, required melting energy, (M.E.) = 9.5 x V

                                                              = 9.5 x 118.73

                                                              = 1127.95 J

Given efficiency of the heat used from electric energy, η = 1/3

Then actual required energy = ME/η

                                               = 1127.95 / (1/3) = 3383.84 J

We know that, electric energy (EE) = $I^2Rt$

where, I is current,  R is resistance and t is time in seconds.

                                           3383.75 = $I^2 \times 140 \times 10^{-6} \times 0.3$

                                                   I = 8975.95 A

Calculate the electroosmotic velocity of an aqueous solution through a glass capillary 5 cm long with a 0.5 mm internal diameter
natita [175]

Answer:

Electroosmotic velocity will be equal to 1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

Explanation:

We have given applied voltage v = 100 volt

Length of capillary L = 5 mm = 0.005 m

Zeta potential of the capillary surface \xi =80mV=0.08volt

Dielectric constant of glass is between 5 to 10 here we are taking dielectric constant as \epsilon =10

Viscosity of glass is \eta =10^8

Electroosmotic velocity is given as v_{eo}=\frac{\epsilon \xi }{\eta }\times \frac{v}{L}

v_{eo}=\frac{10\times 0.08 }{10^8 }\times \frac{100}{0.005}=1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

So Electroosmotic velocity will be equal to 1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

A cylindrical specimen of steel has an original diameter of 12.8 mm. It is tested in tension its engineering fracture strength i
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) The ductility = -30.12%

the negative sign means reduction

Therefore, there is 30.12% reduction

b) the true stress at fracture is 658.26 Mpa

Explanation:

Given that;

Original diameter d_{o} = 12.8 mm

Final diameter d_{f} = 10.7

Engineering stress  \alpha _{E} = 460 Mpa

a) determine The ductility in terms of percent reduction in area;

Ai = π/4(d_{o} )²  ; Ag = π/4(d_{f} )²

% = π/4 [ ( (d_{f} )² - (d_{o} )²) / ( π/4  (d_{o} )²) ]

= ( (d_{f} )² - (d_{o} )²) / (d_{o} )² × 100

we substitute

= [( (10.7)² - (12.8)²) / (12.8)² ] × 100

= [(114.49 - 163.84) / 163.84 ] × 100

= - 0.3012 × 100

= -30.12%

the negative sign means reduction

Therefore, there is 30.12% reduction

b) The true stress at fracture;

True stress  \alpha _{T} = \alpha _{E} ( 1 +  E_{E} )

E_{E}  is engineering strain

E_{E}  = dL / Lo

= (do² - df²) / df² = (12.8² - 10.7²) / 10.7² = (163.84 - 114.49) / 114.49

= 49.35 / 114.49  

E_{E} = 0.431

so we substitute the value of E_{E}  into our initial equation;

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 460 ( 1 +  0.431)

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 460 (1.431)

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 658.26 Mpa

Therefore, the true stress at fracture is 658.26 Mpa
