Answer:

Stress corrosion cracking

Explanation:

This occurs when susceptible materials subjected to an environment that causes cracking effect by the production of folds and tensile stress. This also depends upon the nature of the corrosive environment.

Factors like high-temperature water, along with Carbonization and chlorination, static stress, and material properties.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

(a) 2.5 ksi

(b) 0.1075 in

Explanation:

(a)

$E=\frac {\sigma}{\epsilon}$

Making $\sigma$ the subject then

$\sigma=E\epsilon$

where $\sigma$ is the stress and $\epsilon$ is the strain

Since strain is given as 0.025% of the length then strain is $\frac {0.025}{100}=0.00025$

Now substituting E for $10\times 10^{6} psi$ then

$\sigma=(10\times 10^{6} psi)\times 0.00025=2500 si= 2.5 ksi$

(b)

Stress, $\sigma= \frac {F}{A}$ making A the subject then

$A=\frac {F}{\sigma}$

$A=\frac {\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})}{4}$

where d is the diameter and subscripts o and i denote outer and inner respectively.

We know that $2t=d_o - d_i$ where t is thickness

Now substituting

$\frac {\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})}{4}=\frac {1600}{2500}$

$\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500}\times 4$

$(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4$

But the outer diameter is given as 2 in hence

$(2^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4$

$2^{2}-(\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4)=d_i^{2}$

$d_i=\sqrt {2^{2}-(\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4)}=1.784692324 in\approx 1.785 in$

As already mentioned, $2t=d_o - d_i hence t=0.5(d_o - d_i)$

$t=0.5(2-1.785)=0.1075 in$

The air conditioner in a house or a car has a cooler that brings atmospheric air from 30C to 10C, with both states at 101KPa. If

torisob [31]

The rate of heat transfer by the air conditioner using constant specific heat of 1.004kj/kg.K is 15.06 kW.

<h3>What is the rate of heat transfer?</h3>

Rate of heat transfer is the power rating of the machine.

Work done and changes in potential and kinetic energy are neglected since it is a steady state process.

The specific heat in terms of specific heat capacity and temperature change is given as:

$q_{out} = Cp(Ti - Te)$

$q_{out} = 1.004(30 - 10) = 20.08 kJ/kg \\$

The rate of heat transfer, is then determined as follows:

Qout = flow rate × specific heat

Qout = 0.75 × 20.08 = 15.06 kW

Therefore, the rate of heat transfer by the air conditioner is 15.06 kW.

Precast concrete curtain wall panels: Group of answer choices are typically manufactured on site and then hoisted into place. of

amid [387]

Answer:

c) can be made with a variety of surface finishes.

Explanation:

The missing options are;

When it comes to concrete work in construction, the concrete can be cast either in-situ or in form of pre-cast concrete.

Now in-situ concrete means concrete done on the construction site being built while pre cast concrete simply means concrete cast outside in a factory or yard and brought to site to mount.

These pre cast concrete could have different surface finishes as required as this is one of it's advantages over in situ because there is a lot of space and room to have the desired concrete finish.

a) are typically manufactured on site and then hoisted into place.

b) cannot be fiber-reinforced.

c) can be made with a variety of surface finishes.

d) never include insulation.

e) often are unreinforced.

2. (Problem 4.60 on main book, diameters different) Water flows steadily through a fire hose and nozzle. The hose is 35 mm diame

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

coupling is in tension

Force = -244.81 N

Explanation:

Diameter of Hose ( D1 ) = 35 mm

Diameter of nozzle ( D2 ) = 25 mm

water gage pressure in hose = 510 kPa

stream leaving the nozzle is uniform

exit speed and pressure = 32 m/s and atmospheric

<u>Determine the force transmitted by the coupling between the nozzle and hose </u>

attached below is the remaining part of the detailed solution

Inlet velocity ( V1 ) = V2 ( D2/D1 )^2

= 32 ( 25 / 35 )^2

= 16.33 m/s

When the rod is circular, radial lines remain straight and sections perpendicular to the axis do not warp. In this case, the str

Murljashka [212]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The solid rod shown is fixed to a wall, and a torque T = 85N?m is applied to the end of the rod. The diameter of the rod is 46mm .

When the rod is circular, radial lines remain straight and sections perpendicular to the axis do not warp. In this case, the strains vary linearly along radial lines. Within the proportional limit, the stress also varies linearly along radial lines. If point A is located 12 mm from the center of the rod, what is the magnitude of the shear stress at that point?

Solution :

Given data :

Diameter of the rod : 46 mm

Torque, T = 85 Nm

The polar moment of inertia of the shaft is given by :

$J=\frac{\pi}{32}d^4$
