Question 54 (1 point)

Q9. A cylindrical specimen of a metal alloy 54.8 mm long and 10.8 mm in diameter is stressed in tension. A true stress of 365 MP

wolverine [178]

Answer:

σ = 391.2 MPa

Explanation:

The relation between true stress and true strain is given as:

σ = k εⁿ

where,

σ = true stress = 365 MPa

k = constant

ε = true strain = Change in Length/Original Length

ε = (61.8 - 54.8)/54.8 = 0.128

n = strain hardening exponent = 0.2

Therefore,

365 MPa = K (0.128)^0.2

K = 365 MPa/(0.128)^0.2

k = 550.62 MPa

Now, we have the following data:

σ = true stress = ?

k = constant = 550.62 MPa

ε = true strain = Change in Length/Original Length

ε = (64.7 - 54.8)/54.8 = 0.181

n = strain hardening exponent = 0.2

Therefore,

σ = (550.62 MPa)(0.181)^0.2

σ = 391.2 MPa

Draw a radial power circuit arrangement containing 3 single fused sockets and 2 double unfused sockets showing the live, earth a

sweet [91]

Answer:

Attached below is the Radial power circuit arrangement

Explanation:

Radial power circuit arrangement is done in a way that a single cable starts from the fuse box and connects to all the outlet socket contained in the circuit also the cable contains wires ( live , neutral and earth )

The advantage of a radial power circuit arrangement is that it enables easy identification of electrical faults on the circuit.

A 650-kN column load is supported on a 1.5 m square, 0.5 m deep spread footing. The soil below is a well-graded, normally consol

insens350 [35]

Explanation:

Determine the weight of footing

$W_{f}=\gamma(L)(B)(D)$

Where $W_{f}$ is the weight of footing, γ is the unit weight of concrete, L is the length of footing is the width of footing, and D is the depth of footing

Substitute $2 m \text { for } L, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 23.6 kN / m ^{3}$ for γ in the equation

$\begin{aligned}W_{f} &=\left(23.6 kN / m ^{3}\right)(2 m )(1.5 m )(0.5 m ) \\&=35.4 kN\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the weight of the footing is 35.4 kN

Determine the initial vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}=\gamma(D+B)-u$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3} \text { for } \gamma, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 0$ for u in the equation

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z p}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(1.5+0.5) m -0 \\&=36 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the initial vertical stress is 36 kPa

Determine the vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}=\gamma D$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3}\) for $\gamma, 0.5 m$ for $D$ and 0 for \(u$ in the equation.

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z b}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(0.5 m )-0 \\&=9 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the vertical stress at a depth below the ground surface is

9 kPa

Determine the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer,

$I_{e p}=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{q-\sigma_{s 0}^{\prime}}{\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}}}$

Here $I_{e p}$ is the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is vertical effective stress, and $Q$ is bearing pressure

Substitute $36 kPa for $\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}, 228.47$ kPa for $q,$ and 9 kPa for $\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}$$ in the equation $\begin{aligned}I_{\epsilon P} &=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{228.47 kPa -9 kPa }{36 kPa }} \\&=0.75\end{aligned}$

Therefore the influence factor at the midpoint of the soil layer is 0.693

If you've wondered about the flushing of toilets on the upper floors of city skyscrapers, how do you suppose the plumbing is des

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The plumbing is designed to reduce the impact of pressure forces due to the height of skyscrapers. This is achieves by narrowing down the pipe down to the basement, using pipes with thicker walls down the basement, and allowing vents; to prevent clogging of the pipes.

Explanation:

Pressure increases with depth and density. In skyscrapers, a huge problem arises due to the very tall height of most skyscrapers. Also, sewage slug coming down has an increased density when compared to that of water, and these two factors can't be manipulated. The only option is to manipulate the pipe design. Pipes in skyscrapers are narrowed down with height, to reduce accumulation at the bottom basement before going to the sewage tank. Standard vents are provided along the pipes, to prevent clogging of the pipes, and pipes with thicker walls are used as you go down the basement of the skyscraper, to withstand the pressure of the sewage coming down the pipes.
