Why cooking pans don't have have metal handles?

2 answers:

4 0

metals are conductors, meaning that heat travels through it better than insulators such as plastic (commonly used for pan handles)

Therefore, to avoid the heat burning hands, most pans don't have metal handles.

Probably because during cooking they will also be hot and you won't be able to handle it.

"A steel rotating-beam test specimen has an ultimate strength of 120 kpsi. Estimate the life of the specimen if it is tested at

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles

Explanation:

given data

ultimate strength Su = 120 kpsi

stress amplitude σa = 70 kpsi

solution

we first calculate the endurance limit of specimen Se i.e

Se = 0.5× Su .............1

Se = 0.5 × 120

Se = 60 kpsi

and we know strength of friction f = 0.82

and we take endurance limit Se is = 60 kpsi

so here coefficient value (a) will be

a = $\frac{(f\times Su)^2}{Se}$ ......................1

put here value and we get

a = $\frac{(0.82\times 120)^2}{60}$

a = 161.4 kpsi

so coefficient value (b) will be

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(f\times Su)}{Se}$

b = $-\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(0.82\times 120)}{60}$

b = −0.0716

so here number of cycle N will be

N = $(\frac{ \sigma a}{a})^{1/b}$

put here value and we get

N = $(\frac{ 70}{161.4})^{1/-0.0716}$

N = 117000

so life (N) of the specimen is 117000 cycles

on aircraft carriers, catapults are used to accelerate jet air craft to flight speeds in a short distance. One such catapult tak

sineoko [7]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

The jet's change in speed = (70 m/s) - (zero) = 70 m/s

So acceleration = (70 m/s) / (2.5 s)

Acceleration = (70 / 2.5) m/s²

Acceleration = 28 m/s²

That's about 2.9 G's . Jet pilots can endure a lot more than that, but maybe the catapult or the hook on the airplane can't. Let's look a little closer:

F = m A (Newton #2)

The force on the airplane = (18,000 kg) x (28 m/s²)

Force on the airplane = 504,000 Newtons

That's about 113,000 pounds ! Maybe the part of the airplane that the catapult pushes on can't handle any more force than that. Or maybe that's the most force the catapult can deliver.

Also, the REACTION force on the catapult is the same 113,000 pounds. Maybe the hooks or the chains or the struts on the catapult can't handle any more force than that.

That's almost 57 tons for gosh sakes ! Maybe the DECK of the carrier can't handle more force than that, and that's why they can't launch the airplane with acceleration of more than 2.9 G's .

For an object starting from rest and accelerating with constant acceleration, distance traveled is proportional to the square of

natali 33 [55]

The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in the form of:

d = k t^2

where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs / s^2

Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t = 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:

2 = k (2)^2

k = 2 / 4

k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2

The equation becomes:

d = 0.5 t^2

Now solving for d when t = 4:

d = 0.5 (4)^2

d = 0.5 * 16

d = 8 furlongs

It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.
