Answer:

<u>Total Mass of Conductors = 19913661.3 kg</u>

Explanation:

The total length is given as:

Total Length = 845 mi

Converting it to ft:

Total length = (845 mi)(5280 ft/1 mi)

Total length = 4,461,600 ft

The weight of one conductor per unit length is:

Mass of one conductor per unit length = 2460 lb/1000 ft

Mass of one conductor per unit length = 2.46 lb/ft

Since there are 4 conductors, therefore, total weight of all conductors per unit length will be:

Mass of all four conductors per unit length = 4 x 2.46 lb/ft

Mass of all four conductors per unit length = (9.84 lb/ft)(0.453592 kg/1 lb)

Mass of all four conductors per unit length = 4.463 kg/ft

Therefore, total mass of conductors in the line will be:

Total Mass of Conductors = (Mass of all four conductors per unit length)(Total Length)

Total Mass of Conductors = (4.463 kg/ft)(4,461,600 ft)

<u>Total Mass of Conductors = 19913661.3 kg</u>

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 90 MPa (13050 psi), and the stress amplitude was 190 MPa (27560 psi).
Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) 280MPa

b) -100MPa

c) -0.35

d) 380 MPa

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

mean stress \sigma_m = 90MPa

stress amplitude \sigma_a = 190MPa

a) \sigma_m =\frac{\sigma_max+\sigma_min}{2}

    90 =\frac{\sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}}{2} --------------1

\sigma_a =\frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}

   190 = \frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2} -----------2

solving 1 and 2 equation we get

\sigma_{max} = 280MPa

b) \sigma_{min} = - 100MPa

c)

stress ratio=\frac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}

=\frac{-100}{280} = -0.35

d)magnitude of stress range

                      =(\sigma_{max} -\sigma_{min})

                       = 280 -(-100) = 380 MPa
