8090 [49]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A hydraulic brake system

Explanation:

A wheel cylinder is a component of a hydraulic brake system. It is located in each wheel and is usually positioned at the top of the wheel, above the shoes. Its function is to exert force onto the shoes so as to bring them into contact with the drum and stop the vehicle with friction.

An astronaut weighs 125 lbs on the surface of the Earth. What would she weigh in lbs if she is resting in the space shuttle that
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

weight of astronaut  F_2 = 113.38 lb

Explanation:

Given data:

astronaut weight is = 125 lbs

distance of shuttle from  surface of earth is 200 mils

we know that F = G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where G, m_1, m_2 are constant value, so we have

\frac{F_1}{F_2} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

radius of earth is 4000 miles

where r_2 = 4000 + 200 = 4200 miles

\frac{125}{F_2} = \frac{4200^2}{4000^2}

F_2 = 113.38 lb

Problem 9.11 A structural component in the form of a wide plate is to be fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain f
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

the critical flaw length is 10.06 mm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

plane strain fracture toughness K_{tc = 92 Mpa√m

yield strength σ_y = 900 Mpa

design stress is one-half of the yield strength ( 900 Mpa / 2 ) 450 Mpa

Y = 1.15

we know that;

Critical crack length a_c = 1/π( K_{tc / Yσ )²

we substitute

a_c = 1/π( 92 Mpa√m / (1.15 × 450 Mpa  )²

a_c = 1/π( 92 Mpa√m / (517.5 Mpa  )²

a_c = 1/π( 0.177777  )²

a_c = 1/π( 0.03160466 )

a_c = 0.01006 m = 10.06 mm

Therefore, the critical flaw length is 10.06 mm

{ a_c = ( 10.06 mm ) > 3 mm

The critical flow is subject to detection

A hollow steel cylinder with an outside diameter of 100 mm is required to carry a tensile load of 500 kN. Given that the allowab
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Maximum inside diameter is 68.52 mm.

Explanation:

Apply stress formula to calculate inside diameter of the tube. Take the allowable stress for safe design and maximum inside diameter of the steel tube.

Step1

Given:

Outside diameter is 100 mm.

Tensile load is 500 kN.

Allowable stress is 120 Mpa.

Calculation:

Step2

Inside diameter is calculated by the stress formula as follows:

\sigma_{a}=\frac{F}{A}

\sigma_{a}=\frac{F}{\frac{\pi}{4}(d_{o}^{2}-d_{i}^{2})}

120=\frac{500\times1000}{\frac{\pi}{4}(100^{2}-d_{i}^{2})}

(100^{2}-d_{i}^{2})=5305.164

d_{i}=68.52mm

Thus, the inner diameter is 68.52 mm.
