me that both a triaxial shear test and a direct shear test were performed on a sample of dry sand. When the triaxial test is per

formed, the specimen was observed to fail when the major and minor principal stresses were 100 lb/in2 and 20 lb/in2, respectively. When the direct shear test is performed, what shear strength can be expected if the normal stress is 3000 lb/ft2

Answer:

shear strength = 2682.31 Ib/ft^2

Explanation:

major principal stress = 100 Ib / in2

minor principal stress = 20 Ib/in2

Normal stress = 3000 Ib/ft2

<u>Determine the shear strength when direct shear test is performed </u>

To resolve this we will apply the coulomb failure criteria relationship between major and minor principal stress a

for direct shear test

use Mohr Coulomb criteria relation between normal stress and shear stress

Shear strength when normal strength is 3000 Ib/ft  = 2682.31 Ib/ft^2

attached below is the detailed solution

A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w
german

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.

Two particles have a mass of 7.8 kg and 11.4 kg , respectively. A. If they are 800 mm apart, determine the force of gravity acti
aleksley [76]

Answer:

A) About 9.273 \times 10^{-9} newtons

B) 76.518 newtons

C) 111.834 newtons

Explanation:

A) F_g=\dfrac{GM_1M_2}{r^2} , where G is the universal gravitational constant, M 1 and 2 are the masses of both objects in kilograms, and r is the radius in meters. Plugging in the given numbers, you get:

F_g=\dfrac{(6.67408 \times 10^{-11})(7.8)(11.4)}{(0.8)^2}\approx 9.273 \times 10^{-9}

B) You can find the weight of each object on Earth because you know the approximate acceleration due to gravity is 9.81m/s^2. Multiplying this by the mass of each object, you get a weight for the first particle of 76.518 newtons.

C) You can do a similar thing to the previous particle and find that its weight is 11.4*9.81=111.834 newtons.

Hope this helps!

You are hitting a nail with a hammer (mass of hammer =1.8lb) the initial velocity of the hammer is 50 mph (73.33 ft/sec). The ti
Archy [21]

Answer:

The nail exerts a force of 573.88 Pounds on the Hammer in positive j direction.

Explanation:

Since we know that the force is the rate at which the momentum of an object changes.

Mathematically \overrightarrow{F}=\frac{\Delta \overrightarrow{p}}{\Delta t}

The momentum of any body is defines as \overrightarrow{p}=mass\times \overrightarrow{v}

In the above problem we see that the moumentum of the hammer is reduced to zero in 0.023 seconds thus the force on the hammer is calculated using the above relations as

\overrightarrow{F}=\frac{m(\overrightarrow{v_{f}}-\overrightarrow{v_{i}})}{\Delta t}

\overrightarrow{F}=\frac{m(0-(-73.33)}{0.23}=\frac{1.8\times 73.33}{0.23}=573.88Pounds

Estimate the endurance strength, Se, of a 37.5-mm- diameter rod of AISI 1040 steel having a machined finish and heat-treated to
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

endurance length is 236.64 MPa

Explanation:

data given:

d = 37.5 mm

Sut = 760MPa

endurance limit is

Se = 0.5 Sut

   = 0.5*760 = 380 MPa

surface factor is

Ka = a*Sut^b

where

Sut is ultimate strength

for AISI 1040 STEEL

a = 4.51, b = -0.265

Ka = 4.51*380^{-0.265}

Ka = 0.93

size factor is given as

Kb =1.29 d^{-0.17}

Kb = 0.669

Se = Sut *Ka*Kb

    = 380*0.669*0.93

Se = 236.64 MPa

therefore endurance length is 236.64 MPa
