Answer:

Upper bounds 22.07 GPa

Lower bounds 17.59 GPa

Explanation:

Calculation to estimate the upper and lower bounds of the modulus of this composite.

First step is to calculate the maximum modulus for the combined material using this formula

Modulus of Elasticity for mixture

E= EcuVcu+EwVw

Let pug in the formula

E =( 110 x 0.40)+ (407 x 0.60)

E=44+244.2 GPa

E=288.2GPa

Second step is to calculate the combined specific gravity using this formula

p= pcuVcu+pwTw

Let plug in the formula

p = (19.3 x 0.40) + (8.9 x 0.60)

p=7.72+5.34

p=13.06

Now let calculate the UPPER BOUNDS and the LOWER BOUNDS of the Specific stiffness

UPPER BOUNDS

Using this formula

Upper bounds=E/p

Let plug in the formula

Upper bounds=288.2/13.06

Upper bounds=22.07 GPa

LOWER BOUNDS

Using this formula

Lower bounds=EcuVcu/pcu+EwVw/pw

Let plug in the formula

Lower bounds =( 110 x 0.40)/8.9+ (407 x 0.60)/19.3

Lower bounds=(44/8.9)+(244.2/19.3)

Lower bounds=4.94+12.65

Lower bounds=17.59 GPa

Therefore the Estimated upper and lower bounds of the modulus of this composite will be:

Upper bounds 22.07 GPa

Lower bounds 17.59 GPa

A smooth sphere with a diameter of 6 inches and a density of 493 lbm/ft^3 falls at terminal speed through sea water (S.G.=1.0027

Pachacha [2.7K]

Given:

diameter of sphere, d = 6 inches

radius of sphere, r = $\frac{d}{2}$ = 3 inches

density, $\rho}$ = 493 lbm/ $ft^{3}$

S.G = 1.0027

g = 9.8 m/ $m^{2}$ = 386.22 inch/ $s^{2}$

Solution:

Using the formula for terminal velocity,

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2V\rho g}{A \rho C_{d}}}$ (1)

$(Since, m = V\times \rho)$

where,

V = volume of sphere

$C_{d}$ = drag coefficient

Now,

Surface area of sphere, A = $4\pi r^{2}$

Volume of sphere, V = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

Using the above formulae in eqn (1):

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2\times \frac{4}{3} \pir^{3}\rho g}{4\pi r^{2} \rho C_{d}}}$

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2gr}{3C_{d}}}$

$v_{T}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{2\times 386.22\times 3}{3C_{d}}}$

Therefore, terminal velcity is given by:

$v_{T}$ = $\frac{27.79}{\sqrt{C_d}}$ inch/sec

The fracture toughness of a stainless steel is 137 MPa*m12. What is the tensile impact load sustainable before fracture that a r

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

7.7 kN

Explanation:

The capacity of a material having a crack to withstand fracture is referred to as fracture toughness.

It can be expressed by using the formula:

$K = \sigma Y \sqrt{\pi a}$

where;

fracture toughness K = 137 MPa $m^{1/2}$

geometry factor Y = 1

applied stress $\sigma$ = ???

crack length a = 2mm = 0.002

∴

$137 =\sigma \times 1 \sqrt{ \pi \times 0.002 }$

$137 =\sigma \times 0.07926$

$\dfrac{137}{0.07926} =\sigma$

$\sigma = 1728.489 MPa$

Now, the tensile impact obtained is:

$\sigma = \dfrac{P}{A}$

P = A × σ

P = 1728.289 × 4.5

P = 7777.30 N

P = 7.7 kN

A 4-pole, 60-Hz, 690-V, delta-connected, three-phase induction motor develops 20 HP at full-load slip of 4%. 1) Determine the to

gladu [14]

Answer:

1. i. 20 Nm ii. 4.85 HP

2. 16.5 %

Explanation:

1) Determine the torque and the power developed at 4% slip when a reduced voltage of 340V is applied.

i. Torque

Since slip is constant at 4 %,torque, T ∝ V² where V = voltage

Now, T₂/T₁ = V₂²/V₁² where T₁ = torque at 690 V = P/2πN where P = power = 20 HP = 20 × 746 W = 14920 W, N = rotor speed = N'(1 - s) where s = slip = 4% = 0.04 and N' = synchronous speed = 120f/p where f = frequency = 60 Hz and p = number of poles = 4.

So, N' = 120 × 60/4 = 30 × 60 = 1800 rpm

So, N = N'(1 - s) = 1800 rpm(1 - 0.04) = 1800 rpm(0.96) = 1728 rpm = 1728/60 = 28.8 rps

So, T = P/2πN = 14920 W/(2π × 28.8rps) = 14920 W/180.96 = 82.45 Nm

T₂ = torque at 340 V, V₁ = 690 V and V₂ = 340 V

So, T₂/T₁ = V₂²/V₁²

T₂ = (V₂²/V₁²)T₁

T₂ = (V₂/V₁)²T₁

T₂ = (340 V/690 V)²82.45 Nm

T₂ = (0.4928)²82.45 Nm

T₂ = (0.2428)82.45 Nm

T₂ = 20.02 Nm

T₂ ≅ 20 Nm

ii. Power

P = 2πT₂N'

= 2π × 20 Nm × 28.8 rps

= 1152π W

= 3619.11 W

converting to HP

= 3619.11 W/746 W

= 4.85 HP

2) What must be the new slip for the motor to develop the same torque when the reduced voltage is applied

Since torque T ∝ sV² where s = slip and V = voltage,

T₂/T₁ = s₂V₂²/s₁V₁²

where T₁ = torque at slip, s₁ = 4% and voltage V₁ = 690 V and T₂ = torque at slip, s₂ = unknown and voltage V₂ = 340 V

If the torque is the same, T₁ = T₂ ⇒ T₂T₁ = 1

So,

T₂/T₁ = s₂V₂²/s₁V₁²

1 = s₂V₂²/s₁V₁²

s₂V₂² = s₁V₁²

s₂ = s₁V₁²/V₂²

s₂ = s₁(V₁/V₂)²

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

s₂ = s₁(V₁/V₂)²

s₂ = 4%(690/340)²

s₂ = 4%(2.0294)²

s₂ = 4%(4.119)

s₂ = 16.47 %

s₂ ≅ 16.5 %
