Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

Annealing is a process by which steel is reheated and then cooled to make it less brittle. Consider the reheat stage for a 100-m
zvonat [6]

Answer:

T = 858.25 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Reheat stage for a 100-mm-thick steel plate ( 7830 kg/m3,  c 550 J/kg K, k 48 W/m K),

initial uniform temperature ( Ti ) = 200 c

Final temperature = 550 c

convection coefficient  = 250 w/m^2 k

products combustion temp = 800 c

calculate how long the plate should be left in the furnace ( to attain 550 c )

first calculate/determine the Fourier series Number ( Fo )

\frac{T_{0}-T_{x}  }{T_{1}-T_{x}  } = C_{1} e^{(-0.4888^{2}*Fo )}

= 0.4167 = 1.0396e^{-0.4888*Fo}

therefore Fo =  3.8264

Now determine how long the plate should be left in the furnace

Fo = (\frac{k}{pc_{p} } ) ( \frac{t}{(L/2)^2} )

k = 48

p = 7830

L = 0.1

Input the values into the relation and make t subject of the formula

hence t = 858.25 s

Generally, final design results are rounded to or fixed to three digits because the given data cannot justify a greater display.
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

(a) 1.90 kpsi

(b) 0.40 kpsi

(c) 0.61 in.

(d) 0.009

(a) 8 MPa

(b) 1.30 cm⁴

(c) 2.04 cm⁴

(d) 62.2 MPa

Explanation:

(a) σ = M/Z, where M = 1770 lbf·in and Z = 0.943 in³.

1770/0.943 = 1876.988 lbf/in² = 1.90 kpsi

(b) σ = F/A, where F = 9440 lbf and A = 23.8 in².

9440 /23.8 = 396.639 lbf/in² = 0.4 kpsi

(c) y = Fl³/(3EI)

F = 270 lbf

l = 31.5 in.

E = 30 Mpsi

I = 0.154 in.⁴

y = 270×31.5³/(3×30×10⁶×0.154) = 0.61 in.

(d) θ = Tl/(GJ), where T = 9740 lbf·in, l = 9.85 in. G = 11.3 Mpsi, and d = 1.00 in.

J = π·d⁴/32 = π/32 in.⁴

∴ θ = 9740  × 9.85 /(11.3 × 10⁶× π/32) = 0.009

(a) σ = F/wt, where F = 1 kN, w = 25 mm, and t = 5 mm

∴ σ = 1000/(0.025 × 0.005) = 8 MPa

(b) I = bh³/12, where b = 10 mm and h = 25 mm.

10×25³/12 = 1.30 cm⁴

(c) I = π·d⁴/64 where d = 25.4 mm.

I = π × 25.4⁴/64 = 2.04 cm⁴

(d) τ = 16×T/(π×d³), where T = 25 N·m, and d = 12.7 mm.

16×25/(π×0.0127³) = 62.2 MPa.
