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.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer: The total vehicle delay is

39sec/veh

Explanation: we shall define only the values that are important to this question, so that the solution will be very clear for your understanding.

Effective red time (r) = 25sec

Arrival rate (A) = 900veh/h = 0.25veh/sec

Departure rate (D) = 1800veh/h = 0.5veh/sec

STEP1: FIND THE TRAFFIC INTENSITY (p)

p = A ÷ D

p = 0.25 ÷ 0.5 = 0.5

STEP 2: FIND THE TOTAL VEHICLE DELAY AFTER ONE CYCLE

The total vehicle delay is how long it will take a vehicle to wait on the queue, before passing.

Dt = (A × r^2) ÷ 2(1 - p)

Dt = (0.25 × 25^2) ÷ 2(1 - 0.5)

Dt = 156.25 ÷ 4 = 39.0625

Therefore the total vehicle delay after one cycle is;

Dt = 39

Oxana [17]

Answer:

a) For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

b) For this case the total time is reduced 20%  so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}

t_{INT}=55s

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}

And then: \Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s

c) A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

Explanation:

From the info given we know that a computer running a program that requires 250 s, with 70 s spent executing FP instructions, 85 s executed L/S instructions and 40 s spent executing branch instructions.

Part 1

For this case the new time to run the FP operation would be reduced 20% so that means 100-20% =80% from the original time

(1-0.2)*70 s =56s

The reduction on this case is 70-56 s=14s

And since the new total time would be given by 250-14=236 s

Part 2

For this case the total time is reduced 20%  so that means that the new total time would be (1-0.2)=0.8 times the original total time (1-0.2) *250s =200 s

The original time for INT operations is calculated as:

250 = 70+85+40 +t_{INT}

t_{INT}=55s

For this part the only time that was changed is assumed the INT operations so then:

200 = 70+85+40 \Delta t_{INT}

And then: \Delta t_{INT}= 200-70-85-40=5 s

And we can quantify the decrease using the relative change:

\% Change = \frac{5s}{55 s} *100 = 9.09\% of reduction

Part 3

A reduction of the total time implies that the total time would be 205 s from the results above. And the time for FP is 70, for L/S is 85 and for INT operations is 55 s, so then if we add 70+85+55=210s, we see that 210>205 so then we cannot reduce the total time 20% just reducing the branch intructions.

Differentiate between isohyetal method and arithmetical average method of rainfall​
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

The isohyetal method is one used in estimating Rainfall whereby the mean precipitation across an area is gotten by drawing lines that have equal precipitation. This is done by the use of topographic and other data to yield reliable estimates.

Whereas, the arithmetic method is used to calculate true precipitation by the way of getting the arithmetic mean of all the points or arial measurements that will be considered in the analysis.
