Answer:

V1=5<u>ft3</u>

<u>V2=2ft3</u>

n=1.377

Explanation:

PART A:

the volume of each state is obtained by multiplying the mass by the specific volume in each state

V=volume

v=especific volume

m=mass

V=mv

state 1

V1=m.v1

V1=4lb*1.25ft3/lb=5<u>ft3</u>

state 2

V2=m.v2

V2=4lb*0.5ft3/lb=  <u> 2ft3</u>

PART B:

since the PV ^ n is constant we can equal the equations of state 1 and state 2

P1V1^n=P2V2^n

P1/P2=(V2/V1)^n

ln(P1/P2)=n . ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(P1/P2)/ ln (V2/V1)

n=ln(15/53)/ ln (2/5)

n=1.377

The design for a new cementless hip implant is to be studied using an instrumented implant and a fixed simulated femur.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) the velocity of the implant immediately after impact is 20 m/s

b) the average resistance of the implant is 40000 N

Explanation:

a) The impulse momentum is:

mv1 + ∑Imp(1---->2) = mv2

According the exercise:

v1=0

∑Imp(1---->2) = F(t2-t1)

m=0.2 kg

Replacing:

0+F(t_{2} -t_{1} )=0.2v_{2}

if F=2 kN and t2-t1=2x10^-3 s. Replacing

0+2x10^{-3} (2x10^{-3} )=0.2v_{2} \\v_{2} =\frac{4}{0.2} =20m/s

b) Work and energy in the system is:

T2 - U(2----->3) = T3

where T2 and T3 are the kinetic energy and U(2----->3) is the work.

T_{2} =\frac{1}{2} mv_{2}^{2}  \\T_{3} =0\\U_{2---3} =-F_{res} x

Replacing:

\frac{1}{2} *0.2*20^{2} -F_{res} *0.001=0\\F_{res} =40000N

A hypothetical A-B alloy of composition 57 wt% B-43 wt% A at some temperature is found to consist of mass fractions of 0.5 for b
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

composition of alpha phase is 27% B

Explanation:

given data

mass fractions  = 0.5 for both

composition = 57 wt% B-43 wt% A

composition = 87 wt% B-13 wt% A

solution

as by total composition Co = 57 and by beta phase composition  Cβ = 87  

we use here lever rule that is

Wα = Wβ   ...............1

Wα = Wβ = 0.5

now we take here left side of equation

we will get

\frac{C_\beta - Co}{C_\beta - Ca}   = 0.5

\frac{87 - 57}{87 - Ca} = 0.5  

solve it we get

Ca = 27

so composition of alpha phase is 27% B

The dam cross section is an equilateral triangle, with a side length, L, of 50 m. Its width into the paper, b, is 100 m. The dam
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

In an equilateral trinagle the center of mass is at 1/3 of the height and horizontally centered.

We can consider that the weigth applies a torque of T = W*b/2 on the right corner, being W the weight and b the base of the triangle.

The weigth depends on the size and specific gravity.

W = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG

Then

Teq = 1/2 * b * h * L * SG * b / 2

Teq = 1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG

The water would apply a torque of elements of pressure integrated over the area and multiplied by the height at which they are apllied:

T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {p(y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy

The term sin(30) is because of the slope of the wall

The pressure of water is:

p(y) = SGw * (h - y)

Then:

T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * (h-y) * sin(30) * L * (h-y)} \, dy

T1 = \int\limits^h_0 {SGw * sin(30) * L * (h-y)^2} \, dy

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {(h-y)^2} \, dy

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * \int\limits^h_0 {h^2 - 2*h*y + y^2} \, dy

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*y - h*y^2 + 1/3*y^3)(evaluated between 0 and h)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^2*h - h*h^2 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = SGw * sin(30) * L * (h^3 - h^3 + 1/3*h^3)

T1 = 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

To remain stable the equilibrant torque (Teq) must be of larger magnitude than the water pressure torque (T1)

1/4 * b^2 * h * L * SG > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * h^3

In an equilateral triangle h = b * cos(30)

1/4 * b^3 * cos(30) * L * SG  > 1/3 * SGw * sin(30) * L * b^3 * (cos(30))^3

SG > SGw * 4/3* sin(30) * (cos(30))^2

SG > 1/2 * SGw

For the dam to hold, it should have a specific gravity of at leas half the specific gravity of water.

This is avergae specific gravity, including holes.

The pads are 200mm long, 150 mm wide and thickness equal to 12mm. 1- Determine the average shear strain in the rubber if the for
lord [1]

Answer:

a) 0.3

b) 3.6 mm

Explanation:

Given

Length of the pads, l = 200 mm = 0.2 m

Width of the pads, b = 150 mm = 0.15 m

Thickness of the pads, t = 12 mm = 0.012 m

Force on the rubber, P = 15 kN

Shear modulus on the rubber, G = 830 GPa

The average shear strain can be gotten by

τ(average) = (P/2) / bl

τ(average) = (15/2) / (0.15 * 0.2)

τ(average) = 7.5 / 0.03

τ(average) = 250 kPa

γ(average) = τ(average) / G

γ(average) = 250 kPa / 830 kPa

γ(average) = 0.3

horizontal displacement,

δ = γ(average) * t

δ = 0.3 * 12

δ = 3.6 mm
