An engineer is designing a total hip implant. She intends to make the femoral stem out of titanium because it forms a good inter

face with bone. However, since titanium does not have optimum wear properties she intends to make the ball component out of stainless steel and attach it to the stem using a press fit. Should she be worried about corrosion? If so, what types of corrosion could take place?

Answer:

1. Yes.

2. Localized corrosion

Explanation:

Should she be worried about corrosion?

Yes, the engineer needs to be worried about corrosion as stainless steel has a lower resistance to corrosion, in other words, stainless steel corrodes faster than Titanium.

If so, what types of corrosion could take place?

The type of corrosion that takes place is called Localized corrosion. Localized corrosion occurs when a small part of a component experiences corrosion. In this case, the ball component of the femoral stem is made of stainless steel which will corrode faster than the other parts of the femoral stem which is made of Titanium.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{W_{in} = 645.434573 \ Btu}".

Explanation:

Its air enthalpy is obtained only at a given temperature by A-17E.  

The solution from the carbon cycle is acquired:

\to \Delta U= W_{in}-m_{out}h_{out}=0\\\\\to W_{in} = (m_1 - m_2)h

           =\frac{Vh}{RT}(P_1- P_2)\\\\= \frac{40 \times 138.66}{0.3704\times 580}(50-25) Btu\\\\= \frac{5,546.4}{214.832}(25) Btu\\\\= 25.8173829(25) Btu\\\\ =645.434573 Btu

W_{in} = 645.434573 \ Btu

1. Two aluminium strips and a steel strip are to be bonded together to form a composite bar. The modulus of elasticity of steel
yarga [219]

Answer:

1.933 KN-M

Explanation:

<u>Determine the largest permissible bending moment when the composite bar is bent  horizontally </u>

Given data :

modulus of elasticity of steel = 200 GPa

modulus of elasticity of aluminum = 75 GPa

Allowable stress for steel = 220 MPa

Allowable stress for Aluminum = 100 MPa

a = 10 mm

<em>First step </em>

determine moment of resistance when steel reaches its max permissible stress

<em>next </em>: determine moment of resistance when Aluminum reaches its max permissible stress

Finally Largest permissible bending moment of the composite Bar = 1.933 KN-M

<em>attached below is a detailed solution </em>
