Answer:

The value of Modulus of elasticity E = 85.33 × $10^{6}$ $\frac{lbm}{in^{2} }$

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in

Explanation:

Given data

width = 5 in

Length = 60 in

Mass of the person = 125 lb

Load = 125 × 32 = 4000 $\frac{ft lbm}{s^{2} }$

We know that moment of inertia is given as

$I = \frac{bt^{3} }{12}$

$I = \frac{5 (1.5^{3} )}{12}$

I = 1.40625 $in^{4}$

Deflection = 0.15 in

We know that deflection of the beam in this case is given as

Δ = $\frac{PL^{3} }{48EI}$

$0.15 = \frac{4000(60)^{3} }{48 E (1.40625)}$

E = 85.33 × $10^{6}$ $\frac{lbm}{in^{2} }$

This is the value of Modulus of elasticity.

Beam deflection is = 0.15 in

Car B is traveling a distance dd ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B suddenly applies the br

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the kinematics equation $v = v_o + a_ct$ to determine the velocity of car B.

where;

$v_o =$ initial velocity

$a_c$ = constant deceleration

Assuming the constant deceleration is = -12 ft/s^2

Also, the kinematic equation that relates to the distance with the time is:

$S = d + v_ot + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Then:

$v_B = 60-12t$

The distance traveled by car B in the given time (t) is expressed as:

$S_B = d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2)$

For car A, the needed time (t) to come to rest is:

$v_A = 60 - 18(t-0.75)$

Also, the distance traveled by car A in the given time (t) is expressed as:

$S_A = 60 * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2$

Relating both velocities:

$v_B = v_A$

$60-12t = 60 - 18(t-0.75)$

$60-12t =73.5 - 18t$

$60- 73.5 = - 18t+ 12t$

$-13.5 =-6t$

t = 2.25 s

At t = 2.25s, the required minimum distance can be estimated by equating both distances traveled by both cars

i.e.

$S_B = S_A$

$d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2) = 60 * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2$

$d + 60 (2.25) - \dfrac{1}{2}(12*(2.25)^2) = 60 * 0.75 +60((2.25)-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*((2.25)-0.750)^2$

d + 104.625 = 114.75

d = 114.75 - 104.625

d = 10.125 ft

In a tensile test on a steel specimen, true strain = 0.12 at a stress of 250 MPa. When true stress = 350 MPa, true strain = 0.26

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The strength coefficient is $625$ and the strain-hardening exponent is $0.435$

Explanation:

Given the true strain is 0.12 at 250 MPa stress.

Also, at 350 MPa the strain is 0.26.

We need to find $(K)$ and the $(n)$ .

$\sigma =K\epsilon^n$

We will plug the values in the formula.

$250=K\times (0.12)^n\\350=K\times (0.26)^n$

We will solve these equation.

$K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n}$ plug this value in $350=K\times (0.26)^n$

$350=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n}\times (0.26)^n\\ \\\frac{350}{250}=\frac{(0.26)^n}{(0.12)^n}\\ \\1.4=(2.17)^n$

Taking a natural log both sides we get.

$ln(1.4)=ln(2.17)^n\\ln(1.4)=n\times ln(2.17)\\n=\frac{ln(1.4)}{ln(2.17)}\\ n=0.435$

Now, we will find value of $K$

$K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^n}$

$K=\frac{250}{(0.12)^{0.435}}\\ \\K=\frac{250}{0.40}\\\\K=625$

So, the strength coefficient is $625$ and the strain-hardening exponent is $0.435$ .

exis [7]

The brakes are being bled on a passenger vehicle with a disc/drum brake system is described in the following

Explanation:

1.Risk: Continued operation at or below Rotor Minimum Thickness can lead to Brake system failure. As the rotor reaches its minimum thickness, the braking distance increases, sometimes up to 4 meters. A brake system is designed to take kinetic energy and transfer it into heat energy.

2.Since the piston needs to be pushed back into the caliper in order to fit over the new pads, I do open the bleeder screw when pushing the piston back in. This does help prevent debris from traveling back through the system and contaminating the ABS sensors

3.There are three methods of bleeding brakes: Vacuum pumping. Pressure pumping. Pump and hold.

4,Brake drag is caused by the brake pads or shoes not releasing completely when the brake pedal is released. ... A worn or corroded master cylinder bore causes excess pedal effort resulting in dragging brakes. Brake Lines and Hoses: There may be pressure trapped in the brake line or hose after the pedal has been released.

A rectangular channel 3-m-wide carries 12 m^3/s at a depth of 90cm. Is the flow subcritical or supercritical? For the same flowr

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Super critical

1.2 m

Explanation:

Q = Flow rate = $12\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

w = Width = 3 m

d = Depth = 90 cm = 0.9 m

A = Area = wd

v = Velocity

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

$Q=Av\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{Q}{wd}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{12}{3\times 0.9}\\\Rightarrow v=4.44\ \text{m/s}$

Froude number is given by

$Fr=\dfrac{v}{\sqrt{gd}}\\\Rightarrow Fr=\dfrac{4.44}{\sqrt{9.81\times 0.9}}\\\Rightarrow F_r=1.5$

Since $F_r>1$ the flow is super critical.

Flow is critical when $Fr=1$

Depth is given by

$d=(\dfrac{Q^2}{gw^2})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d=(\dfrac{12^2}{9.81\times 3^2})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow d=1.2\ \text{m}$

The depth of the channel will be 1.2 m for critical flow.
