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

Usually the first digit of the vin id’s the country it was built. So technician A would be correct. That’s usually how it is. Hope this helps. Please let me know if this is incorrect

Tech A says that the brake pedal uses leverage to multiply foot pressure. Tech B says that when braking hard while moving

Nikolay [14]

Tech- A is correct

Explanation:

Leverage is defined as using a tool to gain mechanical influence. The measure of the benefit gained depends on what kind of lever is used and how it is utilized.
Leverage is designed in such a way that it can reproduce the force from your leg many times before any force is transferred to brake fluid.
The brake pedal size and the measure of leverage received depends on the overall design of the brake system.
The second-order lever is used in the brake pedal. The brake pedal applies leverage to populate the force employed to the master cylinder. The effort needed to drive a load depends on the corresponding distance of the load and the work from the fulcrum. The proportion of load and work is known as mechanical advantage.

Dmitrij [34]

Complete Question

The cars of a roller-coaster ride have a speed of 19.0 km/h as they pass over the top of the circular track. Neglect any friction and calculate their speed v when they reach the horizontal bottom position. At the top position, the radius of the circular path of their mass centers is 21 m, and all six cars have the same mass.V = -18 m What is v?X km/h

Answer:

$v=23.6m/s$

Explanation:

Velocity $v_c=18.0km/h$

Radius $r=21m$

initial velocity u $u=19=>5.27778$

Generally the equation for Angle is mathematically given by

$\theta=\frac{v_c}{2r}$

$\theta=\frac{18}{2*21}$

$\theta=0.45$

$\theta=25.7831 \textdegree$

Generally

Height of mass

$h=\frac{rsin\theta}{\theta}$

$h=\frac{21sin25.78}{0.45}$

$h=20.3m$

Generally the equation for Work Energy is mathematically given by

$0.5mv_0^2+mgh=0.5mv^2$

Therefore

$v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{=5.27778^2+2*9.81*20.3}$

$v=23.6m/s$

Considering the analogy between electrical circuit and thermal circuit, show your approach to derive an expression for the therm

Simora [160]

Answer:

Thermal resistance for a wall depends on the material, the thickness of the wall and the cross-section area.

Explanation:

Current flow and heat flow are very similar when we are talking about 1-dimensional energy transfer. Attached you can see a picture we can use to describe the heat flow between the ends of the wall. First of all, a temperature difference is required to flow heat from one side to the other, just like voltage is required for current flow. You can also see that $R_{th}$ represents the thermal resistance. The next image explains more about the parameters which define the value of the thermal resistances which are the following:

Wall Thickness. More thickness, more thermal resistance.
Material thermal conductivity (unique value for each material). More conductivity, less thermal resistance.
Cross-section Area. More cross-section area, less thermal resistance.

A expression to define the thermal resistance for the wall is as follows: $R_{th} =\frac{l}{Ak}$ , where l is the distance between the tow sides of the wall, that is to say the wall thickness; A is the cross-section area and k is the material conducitivity.
