Which atom bond in atomic interaction combines electrons, filling its valence zone a) Van der Vaals bond; b) a covalent bond; c)

Setler79 [48]

Answer: Covalent bond

Explanation: Covalent bond is the bond that gets created when there is a sharing of electrons among atoms and hence creating atomic interaction. The bond formed is from the shared pair because they allow the atoms or ions to achieve stability by completely filling the outer shell of the electron and thus form the covalent bond .Therefore, the correct option is the option(b) .

You are evaluating the lifetime of a turbine blade. The blade is 4 cm long and there is a gap of 0.16 cm between the tip of the

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given conditions

1)The stress on the blade is 100 MPa

2)The yield strength of the blade is 175 MPa

3)The Young’s modulus for the blade is 50 GPa

4)The strain contributed by the primary creep regime (not including the initial elastic strain) was 0.25 % or 0.0025 strain, and this strain was realized in the first 4 hours.

5)The temperature of the blade is 800°C.

6)The formula for the creep rate in the steady-state regime is dε /dt = 1 x 10-5 σ4 exp (-2 eV/kT)

where: dε /dt is in cm/cm-hr σ is in MPa T is in Kelvink = 8.62 x 10-5 eV/K

Young Modulus, E = Stress, $\sigma$ /Strain, ∈

initial Strain, $\epsilon_i = \frac{\sigma}{E}$

$\epsilon_i = \frac{100\times 10^{6} Pa}{50\times 10^{9} Pa}$

$\epsilon_i = 0.002$

creep rate in the steady state

$\frac{\delta \epsilon}{\delta t} = (1 \times {10}^{-5})\sigma^4 exp^(\frac{-2eV}{kT} )$

$\frac{\epsilon_{initial} - \epsilon _{primary}}{t_{initial}-t_{final}} = 1 \times 10^{-5}(100)^{4}exp(\frac{-2eV}{8.62\times10^{-5}(\frac{eV}{K} )(800+273)K} )$
