Answer:

true

Explanation:

True, there are several types of polymers, thermoplastics, thermosets and elastomers.

Thermosets are characterized by having a reticulated structure, so they have low elasticity and cannot be stretched when heated.

Because of the above, thermosetting polymers burn when heated.

Consider a single crystal of nickel oriented such that a tensile stress is applied along a [001] direction. If slip occurs on a

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$\mathbf{\tau_c =5.675 \ MPa}$

Explanation:

Given that:

The direction of the applied tensile stress =[001]

direction of the slip plane = [ $\bar 1$ 01]

normal to the slip plane = [111]

Now, the first thing to do is to calculate the angle between the tensile stress and the slip by using the formula:

$cos \lambda = \Big [\dfrac{d_1d_2+e_1e_2+f_1f_2}{\sqrt{(d_1^2+e_1^2+f_1^2)+(d_2^2+e_2^2+f_2^2) }} \Big]$

where;

$[d_1\ e_1 \ f_1]$ = directional indices for tensile stress

$[d_2 \ e_2 \ f_2]$ = slip direction

replacing their values;

i.e $d_1$ = 0 , $e_1$ = 0 $f_1$ = 1 & $d_2$ = -1 , $e_2$ = 0 , $f_2$ = 1

$cos \lambda = \Big [\dfrac{(0\times -1)+(0\times 0) + (1\times 1) }{\sqrt{(0^2+0^2+1^2)+((-1)^2+0^2+1^2) }} \Big]$

$cos \ \lambda = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

Also, to find the angle $\phi$ between the stress [001] & normal slip plane [111]

Then;

$cos \ \phi = \Big [\dfrac{d_1d_3+e_1e_3+f_1f_3}{\sqrt{(d_1^2+e_1^2+f_1^2)+(d_3^2+e_3^2+f_3^2) }} \Big]$

replacing their values;

i.e $d_1$ = 0 , $e_1$ = 0 $f_1$ = 1 & $d_3$ = 1 , $e_3$ = 1 , $f_3$ = 1

$cos \ \phi= \Big [ \dfrac{ (0 \times 1)+(0 \times 1)+(1 \times 1)} {\sqrt {(0^2+0^2+1^2)+(1^2+1^2 +1^2)} } \Big]$

$cos \phi= \dfrac{1} {\sqrt{3} }$

However, the critical resolved SS(shear stress) $\mathbf{\tau_c}$ can be computed using the formula:

$\tau_c = (\sigma )(cos \phi )(cos \lambda)$

where;

applied tensile stress $\sigma =$ 13.9 MPa

∴

$\tau_c =13.9\times ( \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}} )( \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}})$

$\mathbf{\tau_c =5.675 \ MPa}$

In normal operation, a paper mill generates excess steam at 20 bar and 400◦C. It is planned to use this steam as the feed to a t

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The maximum power that can be generated is 127.788 kW

Explanation:

Using the steam table

Enthalpy at 20 bar = 2799 kJ/kg

Enthalpy at 2 bar = 2707 kJ/kg

Change in enthalpy = 2799 - 2707 = 92 kJ/kg

Mass flow rate of steam = 5000 kg/hr = 5000 kJ/hr × 1 hr/3600 s = 1.389 kg/s

Maximum power generated = change in enthalpy × mass flow rate = 92 kJ/kg × 1.389 kg/s = 127.788 kJ/s = 127.788 kW

Windmills slow the air and cause it to fill a larger channel as it passes through the blades. Consider a circular windmill with

Scilla [17]

Answer:

DIAMETER = 9.797 m

POWER = $\dot W = 28.6 kW$

Explanation:

Given data:

circular windmill diamter D1 = 8m

v1 = 12 m/s

wind speed = 8 m/s

we know that specific volume is given as

$v =\frac{RT}{P}$

where v is specific volume of air

considering air pressure is 100 kPa and temperature 20 degree celcius

$v = \frac{0.287\times 293}{100}$

v = 0.8409 m^3/ kg

from continuity equation

$A_1 V_1 = A_2 V_2$

$\frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_1 = \frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_2$

$D_2 = D_1 \sqrt{\frac{V_1}{V_2}}$

$D_2 = 8 \times \sqrt{\frac{12}{8}}$

$D_2 = 9.797 m$

mass flow rate is given as

$\dot m = \frac{A_1 V_1}{v} = \frac{\pi 8^2\times 12}{4\times 0.8049}$

$\dot m = 717.309 kg/s$

the power produced $\dot W = \dot m \frac{ V_1^2 - V_2^2}{2} = 717.3009 [\frac{12^2 - 8^2}{2} \times \frac{1 kJ/kg}{1000 m^2/s^2}]$

$\dot W = 28.6 kW$

on the same scale for stress, the tensile true stress-true strain curve is higher than the engineeringstress-engineering strain

Bess [88]

Answer:

The condition does not hold for a compression test

Explanation:

For a compression test the engineering stress - strain curve is higher than the actual stress-strain curve and this is because the force needed in compression is higher than the force needed during Tension. The higher the force in compression leads to increase in the area therefore for the same scale of stress the there is more stress on the Engineering curve making it higher than the actual curve.

<em>Hence the condition of : on the same scale for stress, the tensile true stress-true strain curve is higher than the engineering stress-engineering strain curve.</em><em> </em>does not hold for compression test
