The fracture strength of glass may be increased by etching away a thin surface layer. It is believed that the etching may alter

the surface crack geometry (i.e. reduce crack length and increase tip radius). Calculate the ratio of the etched and original crack tip radii if the fracture strength is increased by a factor of 6 when 16.0% of the crack length is removed.

Answer:

the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we determine the initial fracture stress using the following expression;

(σf)₁ = 2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2 ----- let this be equation 1

where; (σ₀)₁ is the initial fracture strength

(p_t)₁ is the original crack tip radius

α₁ is the original crack length.

first, we determine the final crack length;

α₂ = α₁ - 16% of α₁

α₂ = α₁ - ( 0.16 × α₁)

α₂ = α₁ - 0.16α₁

α₂ = 0.84α₁

next, we calculate the final fracture stress;

the fracture strength is increased by a factor of 6;

(σ₀)₂ = 6( σ₀ )₁

Now, expression for the final fracture stress

(σf)₂ = 2(σ₀)₂ [ α₂/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2 ------- let this be equation 2

where (p_t)₂ is the etched crack tip radius

value of fracture stress of glass is constant

Now, we substitute 2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2 from equation for (σf)₂  in equation 2.

0.84α₁ for α₂.

6( σ₀ )₁ for (σ₀)₂.

∴

2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  = 2(6( σ₀ )₁) [ 0.84α₁/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2  

divide both sides by 2(σ₀)₁

[ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  =  6 [ 0.84α₁/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2

[ 1/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  =  6 [ 0.84/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2

[ 1/(p_t)₁ ]  =  36 [ 0.84/(p_t)₂ ]

1 / (p_t)₁ = 30.24 / (p_t)₂

(p_t)₂ = 30.24(p_t)₁

(p_t)₂/(p_t)₁ = 30.24

Therefore, the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

The electron concentration in silicon at T = 300 K is given by
puteri [66]

Answer:

E=1.44*10^-7-2.6exp(\frac{-x}{18} )v/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Temperature of silicon T=300k

Electron concentration n(x)=10^{16}\exp (\frac{-x}{18})

                                        \frac{dn}{dx}=(10^{16} *(\frac{-1}{16})\exp\frac{-x}{16})

Electron diffusion coefficient is Dn = 25cm^2/s \approx 2.5*10^{-3}

Electron mobility is \mu n = 960 cm^2/V-s \approx0.096m/V

Electron current density Jn = -40 A/cm^2 \approx -40*10^{4}A/m^2

Generally the equation for the semiconductor is mathematically given by

Jn=qb_n\frac{dn}{dx}+nq \mu E

Therefore

-40*10^{4}=1.6*10^{-19} *(2.5*10^{-3})*(10^{16} *(\frac{-1}{16})\exp\frac{-x}{16})+(10^{16}\exp (\frac{-x}{18}))*1.6*10^{-19}*0.096* E

E=\frac{-2.5*10^-^7 exp(\frac{-x}{18})+40*10^{4}}{1.536*10^-4exp(\frac{-x}{18} )}

E=1.44*10^-7-2.6exp(\frac{-x}{18} )v/m

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.

A cylinder with a 6.0 in. diameter and 12.0 in. length is put under a compres-sive load of 150 kips. The modulus of elasticity f
jeka94

Answer:

Final Length = 11.992 in

Final Diameter = 6.001 in

Explanation:

First we calculate the cross-sectional area:

Area = A = πr² = π(3 in)² = 28.3 in²

Now, we calculate the stress:

Stress = Compressive Load/Area

Stress = - 150 kips/28.3 in²

Stress = -5.3 ksi

Now,

Modulus of Elasticity = Stress/Longitudinal Strain

8000 ksi = -5.3 ksi/Longitudinal Strain

Longitudinal Strain = -6.63 x 10⁻⁴

but,

Longitudinal Strain = (Final Length - Initial Length)/Initial Length

-6.63 x 10⁻⁴ = (Final Length - 12 in)/12 in

Final Length = (-6.63 x 10⁻⁴)(12 in) + 12 in

<u>Final Length = 11.992 in</u>

we know that:

Poisson's Ratio = - Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain

0.35 = - Lateral Strain/(- 6.63 x 10⁻⁴)

Lateral Strain = (0.35)(6.63 x 10⁻⁴)

Lateral Strain = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴

but,

Lateral Strain = (Final Diameter - Initial Diameter)/Initial Diameter

2.32 x 10⁻⁴ = (Final Diameter - 6 in)/6 in

Final Diameter = (2.32 x 10⁻⁴)(6 in) + 6 in

<u>Final Diameter = 6.001 in</u>

A timing light checks the ignition timing in relation to the ____ position.
kogti [31]

Answer:

The timing light is connected to the ignition circuit and used to illuminate the timing marks on the engine's crankshaft pulley or flywheel, with the engine running. The apparent position of the marks, frozen by the stroboscopic effect, indicates the current timing of the spark in relation to piston position.
