Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

Hypo-eutectoid steel has less than 0,8% of C in its composition.

It is composed by pearlite and α-ferrite, whereas Hyper-eutectoid steel has between 0.8% and 2% of C, composed by pearlite and cementite.

Ferrite has a higher tensile strength than cementite but cementite is harder.

Considering that hypoeutectoid steel contains ferrite at grain boundaries and pearlite inside grains whereas hypereutectoid steel contains a higher amount of cementite, the following properties are obtainable:

Hypo-eutectoid steel has higher yield strength than Hyper-eutectoid steel

Hypo-eutectoid steel is more ductile than Hyper-eutectoid steel

Hyper-eutectoid steel is harder than Hyper-eutectoid steel

Hypo-eutectoid steel has more tensile strength than Hyper-eutectoid steel.

When making a knife or axe blade, I would choose Hyper-eutectoid steel alloy because

1. It is harder

2. It has low cost

3. It is lighter

When making a die to press powders or stamp a softer metals, I will choose hypo-eutectoid steel alloy because

1. It is ductile

2. It has high tensile strength

3. It is durable

Answer:

(a)

Steels having carbon within 0.02% – 0.8% which consist of ferrite and pearlite are known as hypoeutectoid steel.

Steels having greater than 0.8% carbon but less than 2.0% are known as hypereutectoid steel.

(b)

The proeutectoid ferrite formed at a range of temperatures from austenite in the austenite+ferrite region above 726°C. The eutectoid ferrite formed during the eutectoid transformation as it cools below 726°C. It is a part of the pearlite microconstiutents . Note that both hypereutectoid and hypoeutectoid steels have proeutectoid phases, while in eutectoid steel, no proeutectoid phase is present.

Proeutectoid signifies is a phase that forms (on cooling) before the eutectoid austenite decomposes. It has a parallel with primary solids in that it is the first phase to crystallize out of the austenite phase. If the steel is hypoeutectoid it will produce proeutectoid ferrite and if it is hypereutectoid it will produce proeutectoid cementite.  The carbon concentration for both ferrites is 0.022 wt% C.

(c)

(i) Yield strength: The hypoeutectoid steel have good yield strength and hypereutectoid steels have little higher yield strengh.

(ii) Ductility: The hypoeutectoid steel is more ductile and the ductility has decreased by a factor of three for the eutectoid alloy. In hypereutectoid alloys the additional, brittle cementite on the pearlite grain boundaries further decreases the ductility of the alloy. The proeutectoid cementite restricts plastic deformation to the ferrite lamellae in the pearlite.

(iii) Hardness:  hypoeutectoid steels are softer and hypereutectoid steel contains low strength cementite at grain boundary region which makes it harder than hypoeutectoids.

(iv) Tensile strength: Grain boundary regions of hypereutectoid steel are high energy regions prone to cracking because of cementite in the grain boundaries, its tensile strength decreases drastically even though pearlite is present. Hypoeutectoid steel contains ferrite at grain boundaries and pearlite inside grains, so grain boundaries being the high energy state region, it has a higher tensile strength.

(d)

I would recommend hypereutectoid steel alloy to make a knife or ax blade

1- Hardness is required at the surface of the blades.

2- Ductility is not needed for such application.

3- Due to constant impact, the material will not easily yield to stress.

(e)

I would choose a hypoeutectoid steel alloy to make a steel that was easy to machine.

1- hypoeutectoid steel alloys have high machinability, hence better productivity

2- It will be used on softer metals, hence its fitness for the application

3- Certain amount of ductility is required which hypoeutectoid steel alloys possess.

determine the position d of the 6- kn load so that the average normal stress in each rod is the same.
Zinaida [17]

The load is placed at distance 0.4 L from the end of $$12 \mathrm{~mm}^{2} $ area.

<h3>What is meant by torque?</h3>

The force that can cause an object to rotate along an axis is measured as torque. Similar to how force accelerates an item in linear kinematics, torque accelerates an object in an angular direction. A vector quantity is torque.

Let the beam is of length L

Now the stress on both the end is the same now we can say that torque on the beam due to two forces must be zero

$N_1 * x=N_2 *(L-x)$

also, we know that stress at both ends are same

$\frac{N_1}{12}=\frac{N_2}{8}$

$2 * N_1=3 * N_2$

Now from two equations we have

$\frac{3}{2} N_2 * x=N_2 *(L-x)

solving the above equation we have

$x=\frac{2}{5} L

so the load is placed at distance 0.4 L from the end of $$12 \mathrm{~mm}^{2} $ area.

The complete question is:

47. the beam is supported by two rods ab and cd that have cross-sectional areas of $$12mm^2 and $$8mm^2, respectively. determine the position d of the 6-kn load so that the average normal stress in each rod is the same.

What happens in double transverse wishbone front suspension when brakes are applied.
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

When the brakes are applied the in the typical double transverse wishbone front suspension,  it "drives" the car ground due to the setting of the link-type system pivot points on the lower wishbone are have parallel alignment to the road

Explanation:

In order to minimize the car's reaction to the application of the brakes, the front and rear pivot are arranged with the lower wishbone's rear pivot made to be higher than the front pivot as such the inclined wishbone torque results in an opposing vertical force to the transferred extra weight from the back due to breaking.
