A corroded metal gusset plate was found on a bridge. It was estimated that the original area of the plate was 750 cm2 and that a

pproximately 2.5 kg had corroded away during use. Assuming a corrosion penetration rate of 0.5 mm/year for this metal, estimate the time since construction of the bridge. The density of the alloy is 10 g/cm3 .

Answer:

estimate the time since construction of the bridge is 6.66 year

Explanation:

given data

area of the plate =  750 cm²

corroded away during use = 2.5 kg  

corrosion penetration rate = 0.5 mm/year

density of the alloy = 10 g/cm³

solution

we know here area is express as

CPR = \frac{kw}{\rho A t}       ................1

put here value ans we get t

t = \frac{87.6\times 2.5 \times 10^6}{10\times 750 \times 0.5}                  

t = 58400  hour

time = 6.66 year

What is the magnitude of the maximum stress that exists at the tip of an internal crack having a radius of curvature of 3 × 10-4
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

maximum stress is 2872.28 MPa

Explanation:

given data

radius of curvature = 3 × 10^{-4} mm

crack length = 5.5 × 10^{-2} mm

tensile stress = 150 MPa

to find out

maximum stress

solution

we know that  maximum stress formula that is express as

\sigma m = 2 ( \sigma o ) \sqrt{\frac{a}{\delta t}}     ......................1

here σo is applied stress and a is half of internal crack and t is radius of curvature of tip of internal crack

so put here all value in equation 1 we get

\sigma m = 2 ( \sigma o) \sqrt{\frac{a}{\delta t}}  

\sigma m = 2(150) \sqrt{ \frac{\frac{5.5*10^{-2}}{2}}{3*10^{-4}}}  

σm = 2872.28 MPa

so maximum stress is 2872.28 MPa

What is the definition of a duty cycle?
ira [324]

Answer:

D=\frac{PW}{T}*100

Explanation:

In electrical terms, is the ratio of time in which a load or circuit is ON compared to the time in which the load or circuit is OFF.

The duty cycle or power cycle, is expressed as a percentage of the activation time. For example, a 70% duty cycle is a signal that 70% of the time is activated and the other 30% disabled. Its equation can be expressed as:

D=\frac{PW}{T}*100

Where:

D=Duty\hspace{3}Cycle

PW=Pulse\hspace{3}Active\hspace{3}Time

T=Period\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}Signal

Here is a picture that will help you understand these concepts.

Four kilograms of carbon monoxide (CO) is contained in a rigid tank with a volume of 1 m3. The tank is fitted with a paddle whee
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) 1 m^3/Kg  

b) 504 kJ

c) 514 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Given  </u>

-The mass of C_o2 = 1 kg  

-The volume of the tank V_tank = 1 m^3  

-The added energy E = 14 W  

-The time of adding energy t = 10 s  

-The increase in specific internal energy Δu = +10 kJ/kg  

-The change in kinetic energy ΔKE = 0 and The change in potential energy  

ΔPE =0  

<u>Required  </u>

(a)Specific volume at the final state v_2

(b)The energy transferred by the work W in kJ.  

(c)The energy transferred by the heat transfer W in kJ and the direction of  

the heat transfer.  

Assumption  

-Quasi-equilibrium process.  

<u>Solution</u>  

(a) The volume and the mass doesn't change then, the specific volume is constant.

 v= V_tank/m ---> 1/1= 1 m^3/Kg  

(b) The added work is defined by.  

W =E * t --->  14 x 10 x 3600 x 10^-3 = 504 kJ  

(c) From the first law of thermodynamics.  

Q - W = m * Δu

Q = (m * Δu) + W--> (1 x 10) + 504 = 514 kJ

The heat have (+) sign the n it is added to the system.
