A thermocouple junction is used to measure the temperature of a solid material. The junction is inserted into a small circular h

ole and is held in place by epoxy. Identify the heat transfer processes associated with the junction. Will the junction sense a temperature less than, equal to, or greater than the solid temperature? How will the thermal conductivity of the epoxy affect the junction temperature?

Answer:

Conduction,

Less temperature

Epoxy for effective heat transfer by conduction

Explanation:

(1) CONDUCTION is the heat transfer process associated with the junction.

(2) The junction will experience a temperature that is LESS than the temperature of the solid

(3) Epoxy has a high conductivity degree, meaning it transfers heat effectively without much resistance to the heat flow. Hence, to answer the question, the epoxy is used to ensure the effective heat transfer from the solid to the junction.

From the following numbered list of characteristics, decide which pertain to (a) precipitation hardening, and which are displaye
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

(a) Precipitation hardening - 1, 2, 4

(b) Dispersion strengthening - 1, 3, 5

Explanation:

The correct options for each are shown as follows:

Precipitation hardening

From the first statement; Dislocation movement is limited by precipitated particles. This resulted in an expansion in hardness and rigidity. Precipitates particles are separated out from the framework after heat treatment.

The aging process occurs in the second statement; because it speaks volumes on how heated solutions are treated with alloys above raised elevated temperature. As such when aging increases, there exists a decrease in the hardness of the alloy.

Also, for the third option for precipitation hardening; This cycle includes the application of heat the alloy (amalgam) to a raised temperature, maintaining such temperature for an extended period of time. This temperature relies upon alloying components. e.g. Heating of steel underneath eutectic temperature. Subsequent to heating, the alloy is extinguished and immersed in water.

Dispersion strengthening

Here: The effect of hearting is not significant to the hardness of alloys hardening by the method in statement 3.

In statement 5: The process only involves the dispersion of particles and not the application of heat.

Planetary gears require the armature to be offset via a gear housing that holds the starter drive.
Yuri [45]

Answer: Due to the way that spur gears work, starters that use them require an offset armature, which is achieved by placing the starter drive in separate gear housing. In starters that use planetary gears, the gears can be contained in an in line drive-end housing.

Consider 4.8 pounds per minute of water vapor at 100 lbf/in2, 500 oF, and a velocity of 100 ft/s entering a nozzle operating at
andriy [413]

Answer:

A) v_2 = 2016.80 ft/s

B) \Delta s = 0.006 Btu/lbm R  

Explanation:

Given data:

P-1 = 100 lbf/in^2

T_1 = 500 degree f

V_1 = 100 ft/s

P_2 = 40 lbf/inc^2

effeciency = 80%

from steady flow enerfy equation

h_1 +\frac{V_1^2}{2} = h_2 + \frac{V_2^2}{2}

where h1 and h2 are inlet and exit enthalpy

for P1 = 100 lbf/in^2 and T1 = 500 degree F

H_1 = 1278.8 Btu/lbm

s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R

for P1 = 40 lbf/in^2

H_1 = 1193.5 Btu/lbm

s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R

exit enthalapy h_2

\eta = \frac{h_1 - h'_2}{ h_1 - h_2}

0.80 = \frac{1278.8 - h'_2}{1278.8 -1193.5} = 1197.77 Btu/lbm

from above equation

1278.8 \times 25037 + \frac{100^2}{2} = 1197.77   \times 25037 + \frac{v_2^2}{2}                   [1 Btu/lbm = 25037 ft^2/s^2]

v_2 = 2016.80 ft/s

b) amount of entropy

\Delta s = s_2 - s_1

s_1 = 1.708 Btu/lbm -R

at h_2 = 1197.77 Btu/lbm [\tex]  and [tex]P_2 = 40 lbf/in^2

s_2 is 1.714 Btu/lbm -R

\Delta s = 1.714 - 1.708 = 0.006 Btu/lbm R

The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A) 209.12 GPa

B) 105.41 GPa

Explanation:

We are given;

Modulus of elasticity of the metal; E_m = 67 GPa

Modulus of elasticity of the oxide; E_f = 390 GPa

Composition of oxide particles; V_f = 44% = 0.44

A) Formula for upper bound modulus of elasticity is given as;

E = E_m(1 - V_f) + (E_f × V_f)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

E = (67(1 - 0.44)) + (390 × 0.44)

E = 209.12 GPa

B) Formula for upper bound modulus of elasticity is given as;

E = 1/[(V_f/E_f) + (1 - V_f)/E_m]

Plugging in the relevant values;

E = 1/((0.44/390) + ((1 - 0.44)/67))

E = 105.41 GPa

In the figure below, block A weighs 20 lb , while block B weighs 10 lb . Friction between the surfaces of the two blocks may be
scoray [572]

Answer:

As P is continually increased, the block will now slip, with the friction force acting on the block being: f = muK*N, where muK is the coefficient of kinetic friction, with f remaining constant thereafter as P is increased.
