Fracture Mechanics: A specimen of a 4340 steel alloy having a plane strain fracture toughness of 45 MPa m ( ) is exposed to a st

ress of 1000 MPa (145,000 psi). Assume that the parameter Y has a value of 1.0. a) Calculate the critical stress for brittle fracture of this specimen if it is known that the largest surface crack is 0.75 mm (0.03 in.) long. b) Will this specimen experience fracture

Answer:

a)  927 MPa

b)The specimen will experience fracture

Explanation:

a) Calculate critical stress for brittle fracture

σ = fracture toughness / (y √ π * surface crack)

  = 45  /  ( 1  \sqrt{\pi * ( 0.75*10^-3)}  )

  = 927 MPa

b) since critical stress( 927 MPa)  < 1000 MPa

hence : The fracture will occur

An object whose mass is 251 kg is located at an elevation of 24 m above the surface of the earth. For g-9.78 ms, determine the g
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational Potential =58.914 KJ

Explanation:

We know that

Gravitational Potential Energy = mass\times g\times Height

Given mass = 251 kg

Height= 24 m

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.78m/s^{2}

Applying values in the equation we get

Gravitational Potential Energy=251X9.78X24 Joules

Gravitational Potential Energy=58914.72 Joules

Gravitational Potential Energy =\frac{58914.72}{1000}KJ= 58.914KJ

A tank with a volume of 8 m3 containing 4 m3 of 20% (by volume) NaOH solution is to be purged by adding pure water at a rate of
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The time necessary to purge 95% of the NaOH is 0.38 h

Explanation:

Given:

vfpure water(i) = 3 m³/h

vNaOH = 4 m³

xNaOH = 0.2

vfpure water(f) = 2 m³/h

pwater = 1000 kg/m³

pNaOH = 1220 kg/m³

The mass flow rate of the water is = 3 * 1000 = 3000 kg/h

The mass of NaOH in the solution is = 0.2 * 4 * 1220 = 976 kg

When the 95% of the NaOH is purged, thus the NaOH in outlet is = 0.95 * 976 = 927.2 kg

The volume of NaOH in outlet after time is = 927.2/1220 = 0.76 m³

The time required to purge the 95% of the NaOH is = 0.76/2 = 0.38 h

What are some advantages of generating electrical energy from tides instead of from fossil fuels
harina [27]

Answer:

Efficent at low speeds.

Explanation:

Since water is 1,000 times more dense than air, electricity can generated from tides much more efficiently at slower speeds than wind turbines can.
