Answer:

The correct answer is (a), heating and soaking at a temperature above the austenitizing level followed by rapid cooling.

Explanation:

Tempering is a heat treatment that is performed to change microstructure of steel <em>and increase it's hardness.</em>

It is done by heating above the austenitizing level, because for this heat treatment it's necesary to heat the steel to get <em>austenite structure</em> that is the <em>alotropic form of gamma iron.</em>

The procedure of tempering, continues with rapid cooling, because this way you get the microstructure with the best hardness properties, that is <em>martensite.</em>

What if m1 is initially moving at 3.4 m/s while m2 is initially at rest? (a) find the maximum spring compression in this case?
Lisa [10]
<span>Ans : Initial E = KE = ½mv² = ½ * 1.2kg * (2.2m/s)² = 2.9 J max spring compression where both velocities are the same: conserve momentum: 1.2kg * 2.2m/s = (1.2 + 3.2)kg * v → v = 0.6 m/s which means the combined KE = ½ * (1.2 + 3.2)kg * (0.6m/s)² = 0.79 J The remaining energy went into the spring: U = (2.9 - 0.79) J = 2.1 J = ½kx² = ½ * 554N/m * x² x = 0.0076 m ↠(a)</span>

The radius of the earth is 6378 km. What is the diameter of the earth in meters?
Nesterboy [21]
To determine the diameter of the earth in metres first multiply the original value by 2.

6378 X 2 = 12 756 km.

Then convert km - m

1 km = 1000 m
12 756 km = ? m

12 756 • 1000 = 12 756 000 = 12 756 000 m or 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m

The final solution for the diameter is 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m.
