Answer: Option A is correct -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn.
Explanation:
Option A is the only correct option -- 2.6 at% Pb and 97.4 at% Sn. While option B, which is 7.6 at% Pb and 92.4 at% Sn. and option C, which is 97.4 at% Pb and 2.6 at% Sn. and option D, which is 92.4 at% Pb and 7.6 at% Sn. are wrong.
Answer: 0.95 inches
Explanation:
A direct load on a column is considered or referred to as an axial compressive load. A direct concentric load is considered axial. If the load is off center it is termed eccentric and is no longer axially applied.
The length= 64 inches
Ends are fixed Le= 64/2 = 32 inches
Factor Of Safety (FOS) = 3. 0
E= 10.6× 10^6 ps
σy= 4000ps
The square cross-section= ia^4/12
PE= π^2EI/Le^2
6500= 3.142^2 × 10^6 × a^4/12×32^2
a^4= 0.81 => a=0.81 inches => a=0.95 inches
Given σy= 4000ps
σallowable= σy/3= 40000/3= 13333. 33psi
Load acting= 6500
Area= a^2= 0.95 ×0.95= 0.9025
σactual=6500/0.9025
σ actual < σallowable
The dimension a= 0.95 inches
