g Asbestos is a fibrous silicate mineral with remarkably high tensile strength. But is no longer used because airborne asbestos

particles can cause lung cancer. Grunerite, a type of asbestos, has a tensile strength of 3.5 × 10ଶ kg mmଶ ⁄ (meaning a strand of grunerite with a 1-mmଶ cross-sectional area can hold up to 3.5 × 10ଶ kg). The tensile strength of aluminum and Steel No. 5137 are 2.4 × 10ସ lb inଶ ⁄ and 5.0 × 10ସ lb inଶ ⁄ respectively. Calculate the cross section areas in mmଶ of wires of aluminum and of Steel No. 5137 that have the same tensile strength as a fiber of grunerite with a cross-sectional area of 1.0 μmଶ

Answer:

Aluminum cross sectional area = 1.99 * 10^-5 mm^2

Steel cross sectional area = 9.95* 10^-6 mm^2

Explanation:

Given data:

Tensile strength of Grunerite = 3.5 * 10^2 kg/mm^2 = 3.5 * 10^-4 kg/<em>u</em>m^2

Tensile strength of Aluminum = 2.5 × 10^4 lb/in2 =  2.5 × 10^4 * 703.07 kg/m^2

Tensile strength of Steel number 5137 = 5.0 × 10^4 lb/in2 = 5.0 × 10^4*703.07 kg/m^2

<u>Calculating the cross sectional area of the wires of aluminum and steel No5137</u>

first we will determine the cross sectional area of the aluminum wire ( A ) by equating tensile strength of aluminum with the tensile strength

of Grunerite

(2.5 × 10^4 * 703.07)  * A = 3.5 * 10^-4 kg

Hence ; A = 1.99 * 10^-5 mm^2

Next we calculate the cross sectional area of steel

5.0 × 10^4*703.07 kg/m^2 * A" = 3.5 * 10^-4 kg

Hence ; A" = 9.95* 10^-6 mm^2

What steps would you take to design an improved toothpaste container?
algol [13]

Answer:

A. Identify the need, recognize limitations of current toothpaste containers, and then brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing

Explanation:

To design an improved toothpaste container, we must identify the needs of the customer, one of the major need is to make the container attractive to the sight. This is the first thing that will prompt a customer to wanting to buy the product (The reflectance/appearance).

Then recognize the limitation of the current design, what needed change. This will help in determining what is needed to be included and what should be removed based on identified customers need.

The last step is to brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing designs. Get ideas from other colleagues because there is a saying that two heads are better than one. This will help in coming to a reasonable conclusion on the new design after taking careful consideration of people's opinion.

A water reservoir contains 108 metric tons of water at an average elevation of 84 m. The maximum amount of electric energy that
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

24.72 kwh

Explanation:

Electric energy=potential energy=mgz where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and z is the elevation.

Substituting the given values while taking g as 9.81 and dividing by 3600 to convert to per hour we obtain

PE=(108*9.81*84)/3600=24.72 kWh

Someone claims that in fully developed turbulent flow in a tube, the shear stress is a maximum at the tube surface. Is this clai
Alika [10]

Answer:

Yes this claim is correct.

Explanation:

The shear stress at any point is proportional to the velocity gradient at any that point. Since the fluid that is in contact with the pipe wall shall have zero velocity due to no flow boundary condition and if we move small distance away from the wall the velocity will have a non zero value thus a maximum gradient will exist at the surface of the pipe hence correspondingly the shear stresses will also be maximum.
