Answer:

a) the spring rate is 3.333 N/mm

b) the minimum hole diameter for the compression spring is 44 mm

c) the total number of coils needed is 11.6

d) the solid length is 50.4 mm

Explanation:

a)

to calculate the mean spring coil diameter, we take a look at the expression from the relation;

D = Cd

where C is the spring index ( 10 ) and d is the diameter of helical compression spring (4 mm)

so we substitute

D = 10 × 4 = 40 mm

Torsional stiffness G for the tempered wire with diameter 4 mm is 77.2 Gpa ( 77.2 × 10³ Mpa)  ( obtained from Table: Mechanical properties of spring wires).

so when the spring is compressed, the spring force is given by the following expression(realtion)

Fs = k × ys

where ys is the deflection of the spring (15 mm) and k is the spring rate, Fs is the force (50N)

so we substitute

50N = k × 15mm

k = 50N / 15mm

k = 3.333 N/mm

∴  the spring rate is 3.333 N/mm

b)

to calculate the minimum hole diameter for the compression spring

Now the entire spring is within a hole in the  ground, therefore the hole should have a diameter equal to the outer diameter of the spring.

so D₀ = D + d

and from our initial equations, the mean spring coil diameter D = 40mm and the diameter of the helical compression spring d = 4mm

we substitute

D₀ = 40 + 4

D₀ = 44 mm

the minimum hole diameter for the compression spring is 44 mm

c)

Consider the following relation to calculate the total number of coils needed

Na coils are actually working to support the springs structure and its all dependent on the cut at the edge (end). ( from the table, Nt elates to Na)

Na = (d⁴G) / 8D³k

where the mean spring coil diameter D = 40mm and the diameter of the helical compression spring d = 4mm, G is the torsional stiffness  (77.2 × 10³ Mpa), the the spring rate k is 3.333 N/mm

so we substitute

Na = (4⁴(77.2 × 10³)) / ( 8(40³)(3.333))

Na = 19,763,200 / 1,706,496

Na = 11.6

the total number of coils needed is 11.6

d)

As the number of active coils and total number of coils are the same, we get the following relation;

Na = Nt

Nt which is also total number of coils

Now to calculate the solid length

Ls = d ( Nt + 1 )

so we substitute

Ls = 4 ( 11.6 + 1 )

Ls = 50.4 mm

the solid length is 50.4 mm

A cylindrical insulation for a steam pipe has an inside radius rt = 6 cm, outside radius r0 = 8 cm, and a thermal conductivity k
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

Explanation:

given data

inside radius r1 = 6 cm

outside radius r2 = 8 cm

thermal conductivity k = 0.5 W/m°C

inside temperature t1 = 430°C

outside temperature t2 = 30°C

to find out

Determine the heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation

solution

we know thermal resistance formula for cylinder that is express as

Rth = \frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}   .................1

here r1 is inside radius and r2 is outside radius L is length and k is thermal conductivity

so

heat loss is change in temperature divide thermal resistance

Q = \frac{t1- t2}{\frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}}

Q = \frac{(430-30)*(2 \pi * 0.5 * 1}{ln\frac{8}{6} }

Q = 4368.145 W

so heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

Levart [38]

Answer:

230.51 m

Explanation:

Pb = 695 mmHg

Pt = 675 mmHg

Pb - Pt = 20 mmHg

Calculate dP:

dP = p * g * H = (13600)*(9.81)*(20/1000) = 2668.320 Pa

Calculate Height of building as dP is same for any medium of liquid

dP = p*g*H = 2668.320

H = 2668.32 / (1.18 * 9.81) = 230.51 m

g If the rails are originally laid in contact, what is the stress in them on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0
Anettt [7]

A) The amount of space must be left between adjacent rails if they are just to touch on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C is; 0.6048 cm

B) The stress in the rails on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C is; 86.4 × 10⁶ Pa

<h3>Linear Thermal Expansion</h3>

We are given;

Length; L = 14 m

Initial Temperature; T_i = −5 °C

Final Temperature; T_f = 31 °C

The formula for Linear Thermal Expansion is;

ΔL = L_i * α * ΔT

where;

L_i is initial length

α is thermal expansion

ΔL is change in length

ΔT is change in temperature

Now, the thermal expansion of steel from online tables is α = 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ C⁻¹

Thus;

ΔL = 14 * 1.2 × 10⁻⁵  * (31 - (-5))

ΔL = 6.048 × 10⁻³ m = 0.6048 cm

The formula to get the stress is;

σ = Y * α  * ΔT

where;

Y is young's modulus of steel = 20 × 10¹⁰ Pa

α is thermal expansion

ΔT is change in temperature

Thus;

σ = 20 × 10¹⁰ × 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ × (31 - (-5))

σ = 86.4 × 10⁶ Pa

The complete question is;

Steel train rails are laid in 14.0-m long segments placed end to end. The rails are laid on a winter day when their temperature is −5 °C.

(a) How much space must be left between adjacent rails if they are just to touch on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C?

(b) If the rails are originally laid in contact, what is the stress in them on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C?
