Answer:

The main difference between a pneumatic system and a hydraulic system lies in how the energy necessary to make these systems work is generated: thus, while in the pneumatic system this energy is generated through the compression of gases, in the hydraulic system the energy is obtained Through the insertion of pressurized fluids, such as water. Furthermore, hydraulic systems are closed circuits, where the water constantly circulates within the system; while in pneumatic systems the air that is compressed and used is constantly renewed.

At a point on the free surface of a stressed body, the normal stresses are 20 ksi (T) on a vertical plane and 30 ksi (C) on a ho

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The principal stresses are σp1 = 27 ksi, σp2 = -37 ksi and the shear stress is zero

Explanation:

The expression for the maximum shear stress is given:

$\tau _{M} =\sqrt{(\frac{\sigma _{x}^{2}-\sigma _{y}^{2} }{2})^{2}+\tau _{xy}^{2} }$

Where

σx = stress in vertical plane = 20 ksi

σy = stress in horizontal plane = -30 ksi

τM = 32 ksi

Replacing:

$32=\sqrt{(\frac{20-(-30)}{2} )^{2} +\tau _{xy}^{2} }$

Solving for τxy:

τxy = ±19.98 ksi

The principal stress is:

$\sigma _{x}+\sigma _{y} =\sigma _{p1}+\sigma _{p2}$

Where

σp1 = 20 ksi

σp2 = -30 ksi

$\sigma _{p1} +\sigma _{p2}=-10 ksi$ (equation 1)

$\tau _{M} =\frac{\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}}{2} \\\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}=2\tau _{M}\\\sigma _{p1}-\sigma _{p2}=32*2=64ksi$ equation 2

Solving both equations:

σp1 = 27 ksi

σp2 = -37 ksi

The shear stress on the vertical plane is zero

A gas in a piston–cylinder assembly undergoes a compression process for which the relation between pressure and volume is given

viktelen [127]

Answer:

A.) P = 2bar, W = - 12kJ

B.) P = 0.8 bar, W = - 7.3 kJ

C.) P = 0.608 bar, W = - 6.4kJ

Explanation: Given that the relation between pressure and volume is

PV^n = constant.

That is, P1V1^n = P2V2^n

P1 = P2 × ( V2/V1 )^n

If the initial volume V1 = 0.1 m3,

the final volume V2 = 0.04 m3, and

the final pressure P2 = 2 bar.

A.) When n = 0

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

(V2/V1)^0 = 1

Therefore, P2 = P1 = 2 bar

Work = ∫ PdV = constant × dV

Work = 2 × 10^5 × [ 0.04 - 0.1 ]

Work = 200000 × - 0.06

Work = - 12000J

Work = - 12 kJ

B.) When n = 1

P1 = 2 × (0.04/0.1)^1

P1 = 2 × 0.4 = 0.8 bar

Work = ∫ PdV = constant × ∫dV/V

Work = P1V1 × ln ( V2/V1 )

Work = 0.8 ×10^5 × 0.1 × ln 0.4

Work = - 7330.3J

Work = -7.33 kJ

C.) When n = 1.3

P1 = 2 × (0.04/0.1)^1.3

P1 = 0.6077 bar

Work = ∫ PdV

Work = (P2V2 - P1V1)/ ( 1 - 1.3 )

Work = (2×10^5×0.04) - (0.608 10^5×0.1)/ ( 1 - 1.3 )

Work = (8000 - 6080)/ -0.3

Work = -1920/0.3

Work = -6400 J

Work = -6.4 kJ

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The percentage ductility is 35.5%.

Explanation:

Ductility is the ability of being deform under applied load. Ductility can measure by percentage elongation and percentage reduction in area. Here, percentage reduction in area method is taken to measure the ductility.

Step1

Given:

Diameter of shaft is 10.2 mm.

Final area of the shaft is 52.7 mm².

Calculation:

Step2

Initial area is calculated as follows:

$A=\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}$

$A=\frac{\pi\times(10.2)^{2}}{4}$

A = 81.713 mm².

Step3

Percentage ductility is calculated as follows:

$D=\frac{A_{i}-A_{f}}{A_{i}}\times100$

$D=\frac{81.713-52.7}{81.713}\times100$

D = 35.5%.

Thus, the percentage ductility is 35.5%.
