Answer:

2.93 mm

Explanation:

Plane strain fracture toughness K_{IC}=38.5 Mpa\sqrt{m}

Yield strength, \sigma=535 Mpa

Design stress=0.5*535=267.5 Mpa

Dimensionless parameter Y=1.5

Critical length of surface flaw is given by

a_c=\frac {1}{\pi}\times (\frac {K_{IC}}{Y\sigma})^{2}=\frac {1}{\pi}\times (\frac {38.5}{1.5*267.5})^{2}= 0.00293\approx 2.93 mm

Is the flow of power reversible in a worm and wheel gear
nikitadnepr [17]

The flow of power cannot be reversed since the slider could not move the worm gears. Since the input has one continuous tooth and the output has not teeth there is no gear ratio and no change in torque and speed.

Q2: The average water height of an ocean area is 2.5 m high and each wave lasts for an average period of 7 s. Determine (a) the
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(a) 561.12 W/ m² (b) 196.39 MW

Explanation:

Solution

(a) Determine the energy and power of the wave per unit area

The energy per unit are of the wave is defined as:

E = 1 /16ρgH²

= 1/16 * 1025 kg/ m3* 9.81 m/s² * (2.5 m )²

=3927. 83 J/m²

Thus,

The power of the wave per unit area is,

P = E/ t

= 3927. 83 J/m² / 7 s = 561.12 W/ m²

(b) The average and work power output of a wave power plant

W = E * л * A

= 3927. 83 J/m² * 0.35 * 1 *10^6 m²

= 1374.74 MJ

Then,

The power produced by the wave for one km²

P = P * л * A

= 5612.12 W/m² * 0.35 * 1* 10^6 m²

=196.39 MW

A cone-shaped part is to be fabricated using stereolithography. The radius of the cone at its base = 35 mm, and its height = 50
iren [92.7K]

Explanation:

volume = πR²h/3

= πx35²x50/3

= 192325/3

= 64166.725

number of layers n = 50mm/0.05

n = 1000layers

average volume = 64166.725/1000

= 64.167mm³

average area = 64.167/0.05

= 1283.34mm²

average time = 1283.34/900mm x 0.22

= 6.48

6.48 + 15 seconds

= 21.48 seconds

time required = 1000x21.48

= 21480 seconds

convert to minutes

21480/60

= 358 minutes

21480/3600

= 5.967 hours

Explain the following statement: In a windowless proportional counter, the output pulse height from an alpha particle source wil
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer / Explanation:

Regarding α and β Particles in Windowless Counter, the range of α particles is lower than β particles. Alpha particles typically have range less than the dimensions of the gas chamber so that proportional  counters are able to easily record. Hence,  with almost 100% efficiency, each particle which enters the so called active volume.

Then, since the pulse height spectra depends on the number of ion pairs which have formed,  an aplha particle with higher energy creates more ion pairs in the chamber.  However, beta particle range usually exceeds the dimensions of the chamber and therefore  most of the betas hit the walls where they deposit energy. Then, fewer ion pairs are formed  because very few β’s give their energy to the bulk gas.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

vehicle density =  28.205 veh/mile

flow rate =  0.909 veh/hr

Explanation:

given data

count n = 21

distance = 0.78 miles

speed = 52 mph

solution

we get here vehicle density that is express as

vehicle density = n ÷ distance    ...............1

vehicle density = ( 21 + 1 )  ÷ 0.78

vehicle density  k =  28.205 veh/mile

and

now we get here flow rate that is express as

flow rate = k × vs    .................2

flow rate = 28.205 × ( 52 × 0.00062 ÷ 1m )

flow rate =  0.909 veh/hr
