Answer:

Proof in explanation.

Explanation:

Consider a thin cylinder, whose thickness to diameter ration is less than 1/20, the hoop stress can be derived as follows:

Let,

L = length of cylinder

d = internal diameter of cylinder

t = thickness of wall of cylinder

P = internal pressure

σH = Hoop Stress

σL = Longitudinal Stress

Total force on half-cylinder owing to internal pressure = P x Projected Area = P x dL (Refer fig 9.1)

Total resisting force owing to hoop stress setup in walls = 2 σH L t

Therefore,

P d L = 2 σH L t

σH = Pd/2t _____________ eqn (1)

Now, for longitudinal stress:

Total force on end of cylinder owing to internal pressure = P x Projected Area = P x πd²/4

Area resisting this force = π d t (Refer fig 9.2)

Longitudinal Stress = Force/Area

σL = (Pπd²/4)/(πdt)

σL = Pd/4t ____________ eqn (2)

Dividing eqn (1) by eqn (2)

σH/σL = 2

<u>σH = 2 σL</u> (Hence, Proved)

The graph illustrates the activity level of three common digestive enzymes, across a range of pH values. Which enzyme is likely

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(A) Pepsin

Explanation:

From the graph it is clear that pepsin is the only enzyme which works in highly acidic condintion in the digestive system.

less than 7 the liquid is acidic
above 7 the liquid is basic
at 7 the liquid is neutral

It has an optimum pH of about 1.5 at which its activity level is 8.5 as shown in graph.

30. The length of mercury thread when it is at 0°C, 100°C and at an unknown temperature 0 is 25mm, 225mm and 175mm respectively.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

75°C

Explanation:

175−25/225−25=x−0/100−0

150/200=x/100

x=150×100/200

= 75°C

What are dimensionless quantities??

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Characteristic numbers are dimensionless numbers used in fluid dynamics to describe a character of the flow. To compare a real situation with a small-scale model it is necessary to keep the important characteristic numbers the same. Names of these numbers were standardized in ISO 31, part 12.

If i = 1.70 A of current flows through the loop and the loop experiences a torque of magnitude 0.0760 N ⋅ m , what are the lengt

Alik [6]

Answer:

Length of the sides of the square loop is given by

s = √[(τ)/(NIB sin θ)]

Explanation:

The torque, τ, experienced by a square loop of area, A, with N number of turns around the loop and current of I flowing in the wire, with a magnetic field presence, B, and the plane of the loop tilted at angle θ to the x-axis, is given by

τ = (N)(I)(A)(B) sin θ

If everything else is given, the length of a side of the square loop, s, can be obtained from its Area, A.

A = s²

τ = (N)(I)(A)(B) sin θ

A = (τ)/(NIB sin θ)

s² = (τ)/(NIB sin θ)

s = √[(τ)/(NIB sin θ)]

In this question, τ = 0.076 N.m, I = 1.70 A

But we still need the following to obtain a numerical value for the length of a side of the square loop.

N = number of turnsof wire around the loop

B = magnetic field strength

θ = angle to which the plane of the loop is tilted, measured with respect to the x-axis.
