Answer:

Relative density = 0.7 or 70%

Explanation:

The following information was provided by this question

Pd = 1.72mg/mg³

Pd max = 1.81 mg/mg³

Pd min = 1.54 mg/mg³

We substitute into the formula. This formula is contained in the attachment.

[(1/1.54)-(1/1.72)]/[1/1.54 - 1/1.81]

= 0.649350 - 0.581395 / 0.649350 - 0.552486

= 0.067955/0.096864

= 0.7015

= 0.7

The relative density is Therefore 0.7 or 70% when converted to percentage

Calculate the wire pressure for a round copper bar with an original cross-sectional area of 12.56 mm2 to a 30% reduction of area
dybincka [34]

Answer:153.76 MPa

Explanation:

Initial Area\left ( A_0\right )=12.56 mm^2

Final Area\left ( A_f\right )=0.7\times 12.56 mm^2=8.792 mm^2

Die angle=30^{\circ}

\alpha =\frac{30}{2}=15^{\circ}

\mu =0.08

Yield stress\left ( \sigma _y \right )=350 MPa

B=\mu cot\left ( \aplha\right )=0.2985

\sigma _{pressure}=\sigma _y\left [\frac{1+B}{B}\right ]\left [ 1-\frac{A_f}{A_0}\right ]^B

\sigma _{pressure}=350\left [\frac{1+0.2985}{0.2985}\right ]\left [ 1-\frac{8.792}{12.56}\right ]^{0.2985}

\sigma _{pressure}=153.76 MPa

BCC lithium has a lattice parameter of 3.5089 3 10–8 cm and contains one vacancy per 200 unit cells. Calculate (a) the number of
Tanya [424]

(a) The number of vacancies per cubic centimeter is 1.157 X 10²⁰

(b) ρ = n X (AM) / v X Nₐ

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Given-

Lattice parameter of Li  = 3.5089 X 10⁻⁸ cm

1 vacancy per 200 unit cells

Vacancy per cell = 1/200

(a)

Number of vacancies per cubic cm = ?

Vacancies/cm³ = vacancy per cell / (lattice parameter)³

Vacancies/cm³ = 1 / 200 X (3.5089 X 10⁻⁸cm)³

Vacancies/cm³ = 1.157 X 10²⁰

Therefore, the number of vacancies per cubic centimeter is 1.157 X 10²⁰

(b)

Density is represented by ρ

ρ = n X (AM) / v X Nₐ

where,

Nₐ = Avogadro number

AM = atomic mass

n = number of atoms

v = volume of unit cell

Define what a glass transition is and what happens to a polymer because of it
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

 The glass transition occur when the given temperature gets drop below the temperature of the glass transition for the polymers. During the creases of the long range of the given motion, the polymer start changing from the state of hard into the form of brittle.

The range of the glass transition temperature are between the 0 to -150°C. The basic use of the polymer is basically depend upon the main properties of the polymer.
