The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas

ticity of the metal and oxide are, respectively, 52 GPa and 380 GPa, what is the (a) upper-bound, and (b) lower-bound modulus of elasticity values (in GPa) for a composite that has a composition of 90 vol% of oxide particles.

Answer:

a) 347.2 GPa

b) 233.02 GPa

Explanation:

a) To find the upper bound modulus of elasticity, we use the formula:

E_c(u) = E_mV_m + E_pV_p

Where,

Volume fraction= V

E = modulus

Em=52GPa

Ep=380GPa

Vp=90%=0.90

Vm= 100%-90%=10%=0.10

We now have:

E_c(u) = (52*0.1)+(380*0.90)

= 5.2+342

= 347.2 GPa

b) For the lower bound modulus of elasticity, we use:

E_c(l) = \frac{E_mE_p}{E_pV_m+E_m+V_p}

=\frac{52*380}{(52*0.90)+(380*0.10)}

=233.02 GPa

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

14.506°C

Explanation:

Given data :

flow rate of water been cooled = 0.011 m^3/s

inlet temp = 30°C + 273 = 303 k

cooling medium temperature = 6°C  + 273 = 279 k

flow rate of cooling medium = 0.02 m^3/s

Determine the outlet temperature

we can determine the outlet temperature by applying the relation below

Heat gained by cooling medium = Heat lost by water

= ( Mcp ( To - 6 )  =  Mcp ( 30 - To )

since the properties of water and the cooling medium ( water ) is the same

= 0.02 ( To - 6 ) = 0.011 ( 30 - To )

= 1.82 ( To - 6 ) = 30 - To

hence To ( outlet temperature ) = 14.506°C

What motivated software engineers to move from the waterfall model to the incremental or spiral model
scoray [572]

Answer:

1. They needed to develop multiple components in software programs.

2. The ability to overlap the development to be more evolutionary in nature.

3. The need to be more risk-averse or the unwillingness to take risks led to the use of a spiral model.

Explanation:

Software development life cycle (SDLC) can be defined as a strategic process or methodology that defines the key steps or stages for creating and implementing high quality software applications.

In SDLC, a waterfall model can be defined as a process which involves sequentially breaking the software development into linear phases. Thus, the development phase takes a downward flow like a waterfall and as such each phase must be completed before starting another without any overlap in the process.

An incremental model refers to the process in which the requirements or criteria of the software development is divided into many standalone modules until the program is completed.

Also, a spiral model can be defined as an evolutionary SDLC that is risk-driven in nature and typically comprises of both an iterative and a waterfall model. Spiral model of SDLC consist of these phases; planning, risk analysis, engineering and evaluation.

<em>What motivated software engineers to move from the waterfall model to the incremental or spiral model is actually due to the following fact;</em>

  • They needed to develop multiple components in software programs.
  • The ability to overlap the development to be more evolutionary in nature.
  • The need to be more risk-averse or the unwillingness to take risks led to the use of a spiral model.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

First we compute the characteristic length and the Biot number to see if the lumped parameter

analysis is applicable.

Since the Biot number is less than 0.1, we can use the lumped parameter analysis. In such an

analysis, the time to reach a certain temperature is given by the following

From the data in the problem we can compute the parameter, b, and then compute the time for

the ratio (T – T)/(Ti

Water flows with an average speed of 6.5 ft/s in a rectangular channel having a width of 5 ft The depth of the water is 2 ft.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

specific energy  = 2.65 ft

y2 = 1.48 ft  

Explanation:

given data

average speed v = 6.5 ft/s

width = 5 ft

depth of the water y = 2 ft

solution

we get here specific energy that is express as

specific energy = y + \frac{v^2}{2g}     ...............1

put here value and we get

specific energy = 2 + \frac{6.5^2}{2\times 9.8\times 3.281}  

specific energy  = 2.65 ft

and

alternate depth is

y2 = \frac{y1}{2} \times (-1+\sqrt{1+8Fr^2})  

and

here Fr² = \frac{v1}{\sqrt{gy}}  = \frac{6.5}{\sqrt{32.8\times 2}}  

Fr² = 0.8025

put here value and we get

y2 = \frac{2}{2} \times (-1+\sqrt{1+8\times 0.8025^2})

y2 = 1.48 ft
