Answer:

156.0 ksi

Explanation:

The formula of compressive strength is  CS = F / A

where F is the force or load while A is the cross-sectional area

Given the inertia Ag = 35.1 in^4 , which is less than 40, the steel has a short column.

E = 29000 ksi

L = 12ft

r = 2.69 in

therefore;

CS = π^2 E / (kL^2/r)^2

   = π^2 29000 / (0.8 x 12^2 / 2.69)^2

  = 286292.756 / 1834.4089 = 156 ksi

A plate of an alloy steel has a plane-strain fracture toughness of 50 MPa√m. If it is known that the largest surface crack is 0.
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

option B is correct. Fracture will definitely not occur

Explanation:

The formula for fracture toughness is given by;

K_ic = σY√πa

Where,

σ is the applied stress

Y is the dimensionless parameter

a is the crack length.

Let's make σ the subject

So,

σ = [K_ic/Y√πa]

Plugging in the relevant values;

σ = [50/(1.1√π*(0.5 x 10^(-3))]

σ = 1147 MPa

Thus, the material can withstand a stress of 1147 MPa

So, if tensile stress of 1000 MPa is applied, fracture will not occur because the material can withstand a higher stress of 1147 MPa before it fractures. So option B is correct.

A car is traveling at sea level at 78 mi/h on a 4% upgrade before the driver sees a fallen tree in the roadway 150 feet away. Th
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: V = 47.7 mi/hr

Explanation:

first we calculate elements of aero-dynamic resistance

Ka = p/2 * CD * A.f

p is the density of air(0.002378 slugs/ft^3) for zero altitude, CD is the drag coefficient(0.35) and A.f is the front region of the vehicle

so we substitute

Ka = 0.002378/2 * 0.35 * 18

Ka = 0.00749

Now we calculate the final speed of the vehicle (V2) using the relation;

S = (YbW/2gKa)In[ (UW + KaV1^2 + FriW ± Wsinθg) / (UW + KaV2^2 + FriW ± Wsinθg)

so

WE SUBSTITUTE

150 = (1.04 * 2700 / 2 * 32.2 * 0.0075) In [(0.8 * 2700 + 0.0075 *(78mil/hr * 5280ft/1min * 1hr/3600s)^2 + 0.017 * 2700 ± 2700 * 0.04) / (0.8 * 2700 + 0.0075 * V2^2 + 0.017 * 2700 ± 2700 * 0.04)]

150 = (2808/0.483) In [(2160 + 98.16 + 153.9) / ( 2160 + 0.0075V2^2 + 153.9)]

150 = 5813.66 In [ (2160 + 98.16 + 153.9) / ( 2160 + 0.0075V2^2 + 153.9)]

divide both sides by 5813.66

0.0258 = In [ (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)]

take the e^ of both side

e^0.0258 = (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)

1.0261 = (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)]

(0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9) = 2412.06 / 1.0261

(0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9) = 2350.7

0.0075V2^2 = 2350.7 - 2313.9

0.0075V2^2 = 36.8

V2^2 = 36.8 / 0.0075

V2^2 = 4906.6666

V2 = √4906.6666

V2 = 70.0476 ft/s

converting to miles per hour

V2 = 70.0476 ft/s * 1 mil / 5280 ft * 3600s / 1hr

V = 47.7 mi/hr

An FPC 4 m2 in area is tested during the night to measure the overall heat loss coefficient. Water at 60 C circulates through th
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

<em> - 14.943 W/m^2K  ( negative sign indicates cooling ) </em>

Explanation:

Given data:

Area of FPC = 4 m^2

temp of water = 60°C

flow rate = 0.06 l/s

ambient temperature = 8°C

exit temperature = 49°C

<u>Calculate the overall heat loss coefficient </u>

Note : heat lost by water = heat loss through convection

m*Cp*dT  = h*A * ( T - To )

∴ dT / T - To = h*A / m*Cp  ( integrate the relation )

In ( \frac{49-8}{60-8} ) =  h* 4 / ( 0.06 * 10^-3 * 1000 * 4180 )

In ( 41 / 52 ) = 0.0159*h

hence h = - 0.2376 / 0.0159

              = - 14.943  W/m^2K  ( heat loss coefficient )

If you were to plot the voltage versus the current for a given circuit, what would you expect the slope of the line to be? If no
Brut [27]

Answer:

Part 1: It would be a straight line, current will be directly proportional to the voltage.

Part 2: The current would taper off and will have negligible increase after the voltage  reaches a certain  value. Graph attached.

Explanation:

For the first part, voltage and current have a linear relationship as dictated by the Ohm's law.

V=I*R

where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance. As the Voltage increase, current is bound to increase too, given that the resistance remains constant.

In the second part, resistance is not constant. As an element heats up, it consumes more current because the free sea of electrons inside are moving more rapidly, disrupting the flow of charge. So, as the voltage increase, the current does increase, but so does the resistance. Leaving less room for the current to increase. This rise in temperature is shown in the graph attached, as current tapers.
