A hawser is wrapped two full turns around a bollard. By exerting an 80-lb force on the free end of the hawser, a dockworker can

resist a force of 5000 lb on the other end of the hawser. Determine (a) the coefficient of static friction between the hawser and the bollard, (b) the number of times the hawser should be wrapped around the bollard if a 20,000-lb force is to be resisted by the same 80-lb force

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a)   ln(T2/T1)=μβ         β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π  radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π  

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb     T1=80 lb   μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns

(a) Determine the dose (in mg/kg-day) for a bioaccumulative chemical with BCF = 103 that is found in water at a concentration of
solmaris [256]

Answer:

0.064 mg/kg/day

6.25% from water, 93.75% from fish

Explanation:

Density of water is 1 kg/L, so the concentration of the chemical in the water is 0.1 mg/kg.

The BCF = 10³, so the concentration of the chemical in the fish is:

10³ = x / (0.1 mg/kg)

x = 100 mg/kg

For 2 L of water and 30 g of fish:

2 kg × 0.1 mg/kg = 0.2 mg

0.030 kg × 100 mg/kg = 3 mg

The total daily intake is 3.2 mg.  Divided by the woman's mass of 50 kg, the dosage is:

(3.2 mg/day) / (50 kg) = 0.064 mg/kg/day

b) The percent from the water is:

0.2 mg / 3.2 mg = 6.25%

And the percent from the fish is:

3 mg / 3.2 mg = 93.75%

Determine (a) the principal stresses and (b) the maximum in-plane shear stress and average normal stress at the point. Specify t
raketka [301]

Answer:

a) 53 MPa,  14.87 degree

b) 60.5 MPa  

Average shear = -7.5 MPa

Explanation:

Given

A = 45

B = -60

C = 30

a) stress P1 = (A+B)/2 + Sqrt ({(A-B)/2}^2 + C)

Substituting the given values, we get -

P1 = (45-60)/2 + Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30)

P1 = 53 MPa

Likewise P2 = (A+B)/2 - Sqrt ({(A-B)/2}^2 + C)

Substituting the given values, we get -

P1 = (45-60)/2 - Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30)

P1 = -68 MPa

Tan 2a = C/{(A-B)/2}

Tan 2a = 30/(45+60)/2

a = 14.87 degree

Principal stress

p1 = (45+60)/2 + (45-60)/2 cos 2a + 30 sin2a = 53 MPa

b) Shear stress in plane

Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30) = 60.5 MPa

Average = (45-(-60))/2 = -7.5 MPa

A steel bar 100 mm (4.0 in.) long and having a square cross section 20 mm (0.8 in.) on an edge is pulled intension with a load o
grigory [225]

Answer:

The elastic modulus of the steel is 139062.5 N/in^2

Explanation:

Elastic modulus = stress ÷ strain

Load = 89,000 N

Area of square cross section of the steel bar = (0.8 in)^2 = 0.64 in^2

Stress = load/area = 89,000/0.64 = 139.0625 N/in^2

Length of steel bar = 4 in

Extension = 4×10^-3 in

Strain = extension/length = 4×10^-3/4 = 1×10^-3

Elastic modulus = 139.0625 N/in^2 ÷ 1×10^-3 = 139062.5 N/in^2
