Explanation:

Step1

Degree of freedom is the number of independent variable which is required to define motion of the system. Degree of freedom is the number of possible motion of the system. Motion can be sliding or rotate. So, there are maximum 6 possible motions of the system, 3 of rotation and 3 of translation. There are 6 maximum possible degrees of freedoms.

Step2

Take an example of slider that is allowed to slide only. So, the slider will have one degree of freedom. Take an example of cylinder which can rotate as well as slide. So, it will have 2 degree of freedom.

A metallic material with yield stress of 140 MPa and cross section of 300 mm x 100 mm, is subjected to a tensile force of 8.00 M

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:Yes,266.66 MPa

Explanation:

Given

Yield stress of material =140 MPa

Cross-section of $300\times 100 mm^2$

Force(F)=8 MN

Therefore stress due to this Force( $\sigma$ )

$\sigma =\frac{F}{A}=\frac{8\times 10^6}{300\times 100\times 10^{-6}}$

$\sigma =266.66 \times 10^{6} Pa$

$\sigma =266.66 MPa$

Since induced stress is greater than Yield stress therefore Plastic deformation occurs

A slab-milling operation is performed on a 0.7 m long, 30 mm-wide cast-iron block with a feed of 0.25 mm/tooth and depth of cut

denis23 [38]

Answer:

a) $T_m=1.787min$

b) $MRR=35259.7mm^3/min$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Cast-iron block Dimension:

Length $l=0.7m=>700mm$

Width $w=30mm$

Feed $F=0.25mm/tooth$

Depth $dp=3mm$

Diameter $d=75mm$

Number of cutting teeth $n=8$

Rotation speed $N=200rpm$

Generally the equation for Approach is mathematically given by

$x=\sqrt{Dd-d^2}$

$X=\sqrt{75*3-3^2}$

$X=14.69mm$

Therefore

Effective length is given as

$L_e=Approach +object Length$

$L_e=700+14.69$

$L_e=714.69mm$

Generally the equation for Machine Time is mathematically given by

$T_m=\frac{L_e}{F_m}$

Where

$F_m=F*n*N$

$F_m=0.25*8*200$

$F_m=400$

Therefore

$T_m=\frac{714.69}{400}$

$T_m=1.787min$

Generally the equation for Material Removal Rate. is mathematically given by

$MRR=\frac{L*B*d}{t_m}$

$MRR=\frac{700*30*3}{1.787}$

$MRR=35259.7mm^3/min$

11) (10 points) A large valve is to be used to control water supply in large conduits. Model tests are to be done to determine h

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

7.94 ft^3/ s.

Explanation:

So, we are given that the '''model will be 1/6 scale (the modeled valve will be 1/6 the size of the prototype valve)'' and the prototype flow rate is to be 700 ft3 /s. Then, we are asked to look for or calculate or determine the value for the model flow rate.

Note that we are to use Reynolds scaling for the velocity as par the instruction from the question above.

Therefore; kp/ks = 1/6.

Hs= 700 ft3 /s and the formula for the Reynolds scaling => Hp/Hs = (kp/ks)^2.5.

Reynolds scaling==> Hp/ 700 = (1/6)^2.5.

= 7.94 ft^3/ s
