Problem 34.3 The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E

and F. The base plate CD has been welded to the lower flange of the beam, and the end reaction of the beam is known to be 100 kN. The coefficient of static friction is 0.30 between two steel surfaces and 0.60 between steel and concrete. If the horizontal motion of the beam is prevented by the force Q, determine (a) the force P required to raise the beam, (b) the corresponding force Q.

The image is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

A) P = 65.11 KN

B) Q = 30 KN

Explanation:

We are given;

The end reaction of the beam; F = 100KN

Coefficient of static friction between two steel surfaces;μ_ss = 0.3

Coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete;μ_sc = 0.6

So, F1 = μ_ss•F =0.3 x 100 = 30 KN

F2 = μ_ss•N_EF = 0.3N_EF

From the screen shot, we see that the angle is 12°

Sum of forces in the Y-direction gives;

F2•sin12 - N_EF•cos12 + 100 = 0

Rearranging gives;

N_EF•cos12 - F2•sin12 = 100

Let's put 0.3N_EF for F2 to give;

N_EF•cos12 - 0.3N_EF•sin12 = 100

Thus;

N_EF(0.9158) - 0.1247 = 100

N_EF(0.9781) = 100 + 0.1247

N_EF = 100.1247/0.9158

N_EF = 109.33 KN

Thus, F2 = 0.3N_EF = 0.3 x 109.33 = 32.8 KN

Wedge will move if;

P = (F1 + F2cos12 + N_EFsin12)

Thus;

P = 10 + (32.8 x 0.9781) + (109.33 x 0.2079)

P ≥ 65.11 KN

B) For static equilibrium, Q = F1

Thus, Q = 30 KN

A cylinder is to be cast out of aluminum. The diameter of the disk is 500 mm and its thickness is 20 mm. The mold constant 2.0 s

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

a) the minimum time (minutes) for the aluminium casting to solidify is 2.86 min

b) the minimum time (minutes) for the grey iron casting to solidify is 2.13 min. Therefore solidification of grey iron cast will take less time (2.13 min) compared to the solidification of the aluminium cast (2.86 min)

Explanation:

Given that; diameter of Disk = 500 mm, thickness t = 20, mold constant Cm = 2.0 sec/mm²

first we find the volume and Area;

Volume V = πD²t / 4

Volume V = π × (500)² × 20 / 4 = 3,926,991 mm³

Area A = 2πD²/ 4 + πDt

Area A = {[π × (500)²] / 2} +{ π × (500) × (20)}

Area A = 392,699.08 + 31,415.93

Area A = 424,115 mm²

a)

Chvorinov’s rule

T(aluminium) = Cm (V/A) ²

T(aluminium) = 2.0 × (3,926,991 / 424,115) ²

T(aluminium) = 171.5 s = 2.86 min

∴ the minimum time (minutes) for the casting to solidify is 2.86 min

b)

For cast iron

Cm (mold constant = 1.488 sec/mm²)

Chvorinov’s rule

T(iron) = Cm (V/A) ²

T(iron) = 1.488 × (3,926,991 / 424,115) ²

T(iron) = 127.5720s = 2.13 min

Therefore solidification of grey iron cast will take less time (2.13 min) compared to the solidification of the aluminium cast (2.86 min)

Find the derivative of y = sin(ln(5x2 − 2x))

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

$y = \cos[\ln x + \ln (5\cdot x - 2)]\cdot \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{5}{5\cdot x-2} \right)$

Explanation:

Let $y = \sin[\ln(5\cdot x^{2}-2\cdot x)]$ and we proceed to find the derivative by the following steps:

1) $y = \sin[\ln(5\cdot x^{2}-2\cdot x)]$ Given

2) $y = \sin [\ln[x\cdot (5\cdot x - 2)]]$ Distributive property

3) $y = \sin[\ln x + \ln (5\cdot x - 2 )]$ $\ln (a\cdot b) = \ln a + \ln b$

4) $y = \cos[\ln x + \ln (5\cdot x - 2)]\cdot \left(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{5}{5\cdot x-2} \right)$ $\frac{d}{dx} (\sin x) = \cos x$ / $\frac{d}{dx}(\ln x) = \frac{1}{x}$ / $\frac{d}{dx}(c\cdot x^{n}) = n\cdot c\cdot x^{n-1}$ /Rule of chain/Result

The numbers should be added to the merged array in an alternating pattern: first from list 1, then from list 2, then list 1 agai

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

According to the complete question, the code below gives the solution to the problem in Java with appropriate comments

Explanation:

import java.util.Scanner;

import java.lang.Math;

class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

int length = 0;

boolean lengthCheck = true;

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

while (lengthCheck == true)

{

System.out.println("Enter an array length (must be 10 or greater):");

length = scan.nextInt();

if (length >= 10)

{

lengthCheck = false;

}

}

int[] firstArray = new int[length];

int[] secondArray = new int[length];

System.out.print("\nFirst Array: ");

for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)

{

firstArray[i] = (int) (Math.random() * 100) + 1;

System.out.print(firstArray[i] + " ");

}

System.out.print("\n\nSecond Array: ");

for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)

{

secondArray[i] = (int) (Math.random() * 100) + 1;

System.out.print(secondArray[i] + " ");

}

System.out.println("\n");

/*

* A boolean array of length 100 to track list of number we have already added to merge list

*/

boolean[] isAdded = new boolean[100];

int[] merge = new int[(firstArray.length + secondArray.length)];

int j=0;

for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)

{

if(!isAdded[firstArray[i] - 1]) {

merge[j] = firstArray[i];

j++;

isAdded[firstArray[i] - 1] = true;

}

if(!isAdded[secondArray[i] - 1]) {

merge[j] = secondArray[i];

j++;

isAdded[secondArray[i] - 1] = true;

}

}

System.out.print("Merged Array: ");

for (int i = 0; i < 2*length && merge[i] != 0; i++)

{

System.out.print(merge[i] + " ");

}

System.out.println("\n");

}

}
