Answer:b

Explanation:

A beam is subjected to an upward load in the middle and supported in both ends. The upper fibers i.e. a topmost layer of the beam is in tension while bottom fiber i.e. fiber of bottom layer is in compression because they are under compressive force.

Fibers above the neutral axis are in tension and fibers below the neutral axis are in compression.    

So option b is correct

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Plane shell which is option b

Explanation:

The temperature in the case of a steady one-dimensional heat conduction through a plane wall is always a linear function of the thickness. for steady state dT/dt = 0

in such case, the temperature gradient dT/dx, the thermal conductivity are all linear function of x.

For a plane wall, the inner temperature is always less than the outside temperature.

10 litres of an ideal gas at 27°C and 12atm pressure is isothermally and reversibly expanded to a final pressure of 3atm.Calcula
Sliva [168]

Known :

V1 = 10 L

T1 = 27°C

P1 = 12 atm

P2 = 3 atm

Solution :

Work done in the process

W = P1 • V1 ln (P1 / P2)

W = (12 atm) • (10 L) ln (12 / 3)

W = 166.35 L • atm

W = 168.55 kJ
