Fatigue failure occurs under the condition of (a) High elastic stress (b) High corrosivity (c) High stress fluctuations (d) High
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Fatigue occurs under conditions of high elastic stress, high stress fluctuations and high rate of loading

Explanation:

 According to many definition of fatigue failure the fatigue occurs when in an especifyc point of the object there is involved many forces and tensions.

 That tensions needs to be big in magnitud, de variations of the efforts it has to be with a lot of amplitude and the loading in the object it has to be with a lot of number of cycles.

 If in the all of these three conditions are present the fatigue failure it would appear.

can anyone help me with this please.i have the current and pf for branch 1 and 2 but cant figure out the total current, pf and a
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

  • branch 1: i = 25.440∠-32.005°; pf = 0.848 lagging
  • branch 2: i = 21.466∠63.435°; pf = 0.447 leading
  • total: i = 31.693∠10.392° leading; pf = 0.984 leading

Explanation:

To calculate the currents in the parallel branches, we need to know the impedance of each branch. That will be the sum of the resistance and reactance.

The inductive reactance is ...

  X_L=j\omega L=j2\pi fL=j100\pi\cdot 15.915\times10^{-3}\approx j4.99984\,\Omega

The capacitive reactance is ...

  X_C=\dfrac{1}{j\omega C}=\dfrac{-j}{100\pi\cdot 318.31\times10^{-6}F}\approx -j10.00000\,\Omega

<u>Branch 1</u>

The impedance of branch 1 is ...

  Z1 = 8 +j4.99984 Ω

so the current is ...

  I1 = V/Z = 240/(8 +j4.99984) ≈ 25.440∠-32.005°

The power factor is cos(-32.005°) ≈ 0.848 (lagging)

<u>Branch 2</u>

The impedance of branch 2 is ...

  Z2 = 5 -j10 Ω

so the current is ...

  I2 = 240/(5 +j10) ≈ 21.466∠63.435°

The power factor is cos(63.436°) ≈ 0.447 (leading)

<u>Total current</u>

The total current is the sum of the branch currents. A suitable calculator can add these vectors without first converting them to rectangular form.

  It = I1 +I2 = (21.573 -j13.483) +(9.6 +j19.2)

  It ≈ 31.173 +j5.717 ≈ 31.693∠10.392°

The power factor for the circuit is cos(10.392°) ≈ 0.984 (leading)

__

The phasor diagram of the currents is attached.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Given two vectors, their sum can be computed several ways. One way to compute the sum is to use the Law of Cosines. In this application, the angle between the vectors is the supplement of the difference of the vector angles: 84.560°.

How many robots does bailey nursery own ​
givi [52]

Answer:

The Bailey family has flourished during its business’ 110-year history. But Bailey Nurseries’ leaders still operate with the belief that the family doesn’t always know best. The company has grown from a one-man operation selling fruit trees and ornamental shrubs to one of the largest wholesale nurseries in the United States, thanks to insights from those who are family and those who aren’t.

“For a business to thrive, you have to ask for outside help,” says Terri McEnaney, president of the Newport-based company and a fourth-generation family member. “We get an outside perspective through family business programs, advisors and our board, because you can get a bit ingrained in your own way of thinking.”

When Bailey Nurseries chose its current leader in 2000, it brought in a facilitator who gathered insights from key employees, board members and owners. Third-generation leaders (and brothers) Gordie and Rod Bailey picked Rod’s daughter McEnaney, who had experience both inside and outside the company.
