Is it possible to produce a continuous and oriented aramid fiber–epoxy matrix composite having longitudinal and transverse modul

i of elasticity of 35 GPa (5 × 106psi) and 5.17 GPa (7.5 × 105psi), respectively? Why or why not? Assume that the elastic modulus of the epoxy is 3.4 GPa (4.93 × 105psi).The value of Efor aramid fibers is 131 GP

Answer:

It is not possible to produce continued and oriented fiber.

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Fiber volume ratio. The amount of fiber in a fiber reinforced compound corresponds directly to the mechanical properties of the compound. Given the fiber volume fraction, the theoretical elastic properties of a compound can be determined. The elastic modulus of a compound in the fiber direction of a unidirectional compound can be calculated using the following equation:

E = (1-V_f)E_m+V_fE_f

Where,

E is the longitudinal modulus of Elasticity

V_f is the fiber volume ratio

E_m is the elastic modulus of the matrix

E_f is the elastic modulus of the fibers

We need to consult the table of characteristics of Fibers and Reinforcements of Materials, in which they specify that the modulus of elasticity of the aramid fiber-epoxy is

E_f = 131Gpa

Moreover from the statement,

E = 35Gpa

E_m = 3.4Gpa

Replacing in the previous equation,

35 = 3.4 (1-V_f)+131V_f

V_f = 0.25 \rightarrow longitudinal

To make the comparison we now calculate the Fiber volume ratio through the transverse elastic modulus,

E = \frac{E_mE_f}{(1-V_f)E_f+V_fE_f}

Our values are given in this case as:

E = 5.17Gpa\\E_m = 3.4Gpa \\E_f = 131Gpa

Replacing,

5.17 = \frac{3.4*131}{(1-V_f)(131)+V_f*3.4}

V_f = 0.351 \rightarrow transversal

From both cases it is possible to conclude that it is not possible to produce a fiber of the specified material in a continuous and oriented manner, as long as the volume fraction is different in the different cases.

Suppose your surface body temperature averaged 90 degrees F. How much radiant energy in W/m^2 would be emitted from your body?
Debora [2.8K]

493 \; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The Stefan-Boltzmann Law gives the energy radiation <em>per unit area</em> of a black body:

\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4}

where,

  • P the total power emitted,
  • A the surface area of the body,
  • \sigma the Stefan-Boltzmann Constant, and
  • T the temperature of the body in degrees Kelvins.

\sigma = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \;\text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2} \cdot \text{K}^{-4}.

T = 90 \; \textdegree{}\text{F} = (\dfrac{5}{9} \cdot (90-32) + 273.15) \; \text{K} = 305.372 \; \text{K}.

\dfrac{P}{A} = \sigma \cdot T^{4} = 5.67 \times 10^{-8} \times 305.372^{4} = 493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2}.

Keep as many significant figures in T as possible. The error will be large when T is raised to the power of four. Also, the real value will be much smaller than 493\; \text{W}\cdot \text{m}^{-2} since the emittance of a human body is much smaller than assumed.

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

       i.e Normal \ Force(N)  = mg cos \theta

And \theta = 90 so

           N = 0

c

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position        

d

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work
