Vikki [24]2 years ago

Answer:

The coefficient of thermal expansion tells us how much a material can expand due to heat.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when a material is subjected to heat and changes it's shape, area and volume as a result of that heat. How much that material changes is dependent on it's coefficient of thermal expansion.

Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion (i.e. It is a material property and differs from one material to the next). It is important to understand how materials behave when heated, especially for engineering applications when a change in dimension might pose a problem or risk (eg. building large structures).

A 1000-turn coil of wire 1.0 cm in diameter is in a magnetic field that increases from 0.10 T to 0.30 T in 10 ms. The axis of th
ddd [48]

emf generated by the coil is 1.57 V

Explanation:

Given details-

Number of turns of wire- 1000 turns

The diameter of the wire coil- 1 cm

Magnetic field (Initial)= 0.10 T

Magnetic Field (Final)=0.30 T

Time=10 ms

The orientation of the axis of the coil= parallel to the field.

We know that EMF of the coil is mathematically represented as –

E=N(ΔФ/Δt)

Where E= emf generated

ΔФ= change inmagnetic flux

Δt= change in time

N= no of turns*area of the coil

Substituting the values of the above variables

=1000*3.14*0.5*10-4

=.0785

E=0.0785(.2/10*10-3)

=1.57 V

Thus, the emf generated is 1.57 V

Ultimate tensile strength is: (a) The stress at 0.2% strain (b) The stress at the onset of plastic deformation (c) The stress at
MissTica

Answer:

By definition the ultimate tensile strength is the maximum stress in the stress-strain deformation. The stress at 0.2% strain, the stress at the onset of plastic deformation, the stress at the end of the elastic deformation and the stress at the fracture correspond, by definition, to other points of the stress-strain curve.

Consider a very long, cylindrical fin. The temperature of the fin at the tip and base are 25 °C and 50 °C, respectively. The dia
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

98°C

Explanation:

Total surface area of cylindrical fin = πr² + 2πrl , r = 0.015m; l= 0.1m; π =22/7

22/7*(0.015)² + 22/7*0.015*0.1 = 7.07 X 10∧-4 + 47.1 X 10∧-4 = (54.17 X 10∧-4)m²

Temperature change, t = (50 - 25)°C = 25°C = 298K

Hence, Temperature =  150 X (54.17 X 10∧-4) X 298/123 = 242.14/124 = 2.00K =

∴ Temperature change = 2.00K

But temperature, T= (373 - 2)K = 371 K

In °C = (371 - 273)K = 98°C
