Answer:

(c) If the Reynolds number for the plate based on the length L is greater than this value, then the boundary layer is turbulent over the entire plate.

Explanation:

The applicability of the Reynolds number differs depending on the specifications of the fluid flow such as the variation of density (compressibility), a variation of viscosity (Non-Newtonian), being internal- or external flow, etc. The critical Reynolds number is the expression of the value to specify transition among regimes which diversifies regarding type of flow and geometry as well. Whilst the critical Reynolds number for turbulent flow in a pipe is 2000, the critical Reynolds number for turbulent flow over a flat plate, when the flow velocity is the free-stream velocity, is in a range from 10 raised to power 5 to 10 raised to power 6, .4

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Improved/ advanced types of Actuators include servo systems, create a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion.

Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

Explanation:

An actuator control system is referred to as any electronic, electrical, or electromechanical system often used to activate an actuator, control the direction as well as extent and duration of its output. Actuator control systems could take the form of extremely simple, manually-operated, start-and-stop stations, either sophisticated or programmable computer systems. The more improved/ advanced types include servo systems that produce a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process. This type of actuator control system uses an interface arrangement that assimilates feedback from the process or mechanism and adjusts the actuator in the right way. Most actuator systems will include at least a set of travel limits that prevent the actuator destroying itself or the secondary mechanism.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion. They are used to changes, adjust, or move a secondary mechanism, where a physical operator cannot intervene directly. They are denoted by a large range of varying types using electrical and electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic power sources to create linear or rotary outputs. One element they all have in common is the actuator control system used to start, stop, and adjust the range, speed, and duration of the working motion.

Actuators can produce a linear motion, rotary motion or oscillatory motion which means they can create motion in one direction, in a circular motion or in opposite directions at regular intervals. Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

Calculate the radius of gyration for a bar of rectangular cross section with thickness t and width w for bending in the directio
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a)R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

Explanation:

Thickness = t

Width = w

Length od diagonal =sqrt (t² +w²)

Area of raectangle = A= tW

Radius of gyration= r= sqrt( I/A)

a)

Moment of inertia in the direction of thickness I = w t³/12

R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)

Moment of inertia in the direction of width I = t w³/12

R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)

Moment of inertia in the direction of diagonal I= (w t³/12)cos 45=( wt³/12)x 1/sqrt (2)

R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

a cantilever beam 1.5m long has a square box cross section with the outer width and height being 100mm and a wall thickness of 8
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a) 159.07 MPa

b) 10.45 MPa

c) 79.535 MPa

Explanation:

Given data :

length of cantilever beam = 1.5m

outer width and height = 100 mm

wall thickness = 8mm

uniform load carried by beam  along entire length= 6.5 kN/m

concentrated force at free end = 4kN

first we  determine these values :

Mmax = ( 6.5 *(1.5) * (1.5/2) + 4 * 1.5 ) = 13312.5 N.m

Vmax = ( 6.5 * (1.5) + 4 ) = 13750 N

A) determine max bending stress

б = \frac{MC}{I}  =  \frac{13312.5 ( 0.112)}{1/12(0.1^4-0.084^4)}  =  159.07 MPa

B) Determine max transverse shear stress

attached below

   ζ = 10.45 MPa

C) Determine max shear stress in the beam

This occurs at the top of the beam or at the centroidal axis

hence max stress in the beam =  159.07 / 2 = 79.535 MPa  

attached below is the remaining solution

Find the mechanical average of a wheel axle System of the wheel has a radius of 1.5 feet in the accident has a radius of 6 inche
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Mechanical average of a wheel = 3

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of wheel = 1.5 ft = 1.5 x 12 = 18 inches

Radius of axle = 6 inches

Find:

Mechanical average of a wheel

Computation:

Mechanical average of a wheel = Radius of wheel / Radius of axle

Mechanical average of a wheel = 18 / 6

Mechanical average of a wheel = 3
