Compute the longitudinal tensile strength of an aligned glass fiber-epoxy matrix composite in which the average fiber diameter a

nd length are 0.010 mm and 2.5 mm, respectively, and the volume fraction of fibers is 0.40. Assume that thefiber-matrixbondstrengthis75MPa, the fracture strength of the fibers is 3500 MPa and the matrix stress at fiber failure is 8.0 MPa.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Average fiber diameter is 0.01mm

d = 0.01mm = 1 × 10^-5m

The average fiber length is 2.5mm

L = 2.5mm = 0.0025m

Volume of the fraction of fibers is 0.40

Vf = 0.40

Fiber matrix bond strengths is 75MPa

τ = 75 MPa

The fraction strength of the fibers is 3500 Mpa

σf = 3500 MPa

The matrix street fiber is 8 MPa

σm = 8 MPa

We need to find the critical fiber length and compare it to original fiber length

Ic = σf•d / 2τ

Ic = 3500 × 0.01 / 75 × 2

Ic = 0.233 mm

Since the critical fiber length of 0.233 mm is much less than the provided length of the fiber (2.5mm) , so we can use the following equation to find the longitudinal tensile strength

σcd = σf•Vf(1—Ic / 2L) + σm(1—Vf)

σcd = 3500×0.4[1—0.233/(2 × 2.5)] + 8(1—0.4)

σcd = 1400(1—0.0467) + (8 × 0.6)

σcd = 1334.67 + 4.8

σcd = 1339.47 MPa

The longitudinal tensile strength of the aligned glass fiber-epoxy matrix composite is 1339.47 MPa

A rod that was originally 100-cm-long experiences a strain of 82%. What is the new length of the rod?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: (b)

Explanation:

Given

Original length of the rod is L=100\ cm

Strain experienced is \epsilon=82\%=0.82

Strain is the ratio of the change in length to the original length

\Rightarrow \epsilon =\dfrac{\Delta L}{L}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.82=\dfrac{\Delta L}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=82\ cm

Therefore, new length is given by (Considering the load is tensile in nature)

\Rightarrow L'=\Delta L+L\\\Rightarrow L'=82+100=182\ cm

Thus, option (b) is correct.

What is the voltage output (in V) of a transformer used for rechargeable flashlight batteries, if its primary has 515 turns, its
kow [346]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

7532V

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

For a given transformer, the ratio of the number of turns in its primary coil (N_{p}) to the number of turns in its secondary coil (N_{s}) is equal to the ratio of the input voltage (V_{p}) to the output voltage (V_{s}) of the transformer. i.e

\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{V_p}{V_s}            ----------------(i)

<em>From the question;</em>

N_{p} = number of turns in the primary coil = 8 turns

N_{s} = number of turns in the secondary coil = 515 turns

V_{p} = input voltage = 117V

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

\frac{8}{515} = \frac{117}{V_s}

<em>Solve for </em>V_{s}<em>;</em>

V_{s} = 117 x 515 / 8

V_{s} = 7532V

Therefore, the output voltage (in V) of the transformer is 7532

Propane burns at an equivalence ratio (ER) of 0.6, determine actual air-fuel ratio. If excess air is 5%, what will be the actual
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

when 5% excess air is supplied, moles of air supplied/moles of fuel = 23.81\times 1.05 =25

Explanation:

Equivalence ratio = 0.6

Equivalence ratio = Actual air to fuel ratio (AAFR)/ stoichiometric air to fuel ratio SAFR

combustion reaction of propane is

C_3H_8+ 5O_2 ----->3CO_2+4H_2O

From above reaction,  1 mole of propane, from the reaction, 5  moles of oxygen required,  

we know that air contains 21% O_2 and 79% N_2,

Therefore, moles of air based on stoichiometry = \frac{5}{0.21} = 23.81

Theoretical air to fuel ratio = \frac{23.81}{1} = 23.81

Given\frac{AFR}{SFR} = 0.6

Actual Air Fuel Ratio = 23.81\times 0.6 = 14.3

when 5% excess air is supplied, moles of air supplied/moles of fuel = 23.81\times 1.05 =25
