Answer:

The maximum length of a surface flaw is 8.24 μm

8.24 μm

Explanation:

Given that:

The modulus of elasticity E = 69 GPa

The specific surface energy \delta_s = 0.3 J/m²

The length of the surface flaw "a" = ??

From the theory of the brittle fracture;

\sigma _c = \bigg (  \dfrac{2E \delta_s}{\pi a}  \bigg )^{1/2}

Making a the subject of the formula; we have:

a = \bigg (  \dfrac{2 \times E \times \delta_s}{\pi \sigma _c ^2}  \bigg )

a= \bigg (  \dfrac{2 \times 69*10^9 \times 0.3}{\pi (40*10^6)^2}  \bigg )

a = 8.24 × 10⁻⁶ m

a = 8.24 μm

Thus; the maximum length of a surface flaw is 8.24 μm

What is the IMA of this pulley belt system if the diameter of the input
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

2.8

Explanation:

The ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA  = D'/D where D' = diameter of output pulley = 7 inches and D = diameter of input pulley = 2.5 inches

So, IMA = D'/D

= 7/2.5

= 2.8

So, the ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA = 2.8

A rectangular block of material with shear modulus G= 620 MPa is fixed to rigid plates at its top and bottom surfaces. Thelower
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

γ_{xy} =0.01, P=248 kN

Explanation:

Given Data:

displacement = 2mm ;

height = 200mm ;

l = 400mm ;

w = 100 ;

G = 620 MPa = 620 N//mm²;    1MPa = 1N//mm²

a. Average Shear Strain:

The average shear strain can be determined by dividing the total displacement of plate by height

γ_{xy} = displacement / total height

     = 2/200 = 0.01

b. Force P on upper plate:

Now, as we know that force per unit area equals to stress

τ = P/A

Also,  τ = Gγ_{xy}

By comapring both equations, we get

P/A = Gγ_{xy}   ------------ eq(1)

First we need to calculate total area,

A = l*w = 400 * 100= 4*10^4mm²

By putting the values in equation 1, we get

P/40000 = 620 * 0.01

P = 248000 N or 2.48 *10^5 N or 248 kN

In Millikan's oil drop experiment, if the electricfield between the plates was of just the right magnitude, it wouldexactly bala
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The electric field to balance the weight is approximately equals to 3.49x10^5 Newton/Coulumb

Explanation:

In order to be stationary position, magnitude of the total force due to electric field should be equal to the gravitational force that is, |F_{electrostatic}| = |F_{gravitational}|

where

F_{electrostatic}=q.E

where <em>q</em> is the charge of the droplet and E is the electric field. On the other hand

F_{gravitational}=m.g=V.d.g=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^3.d.g

where <em>m</em>,<em>V ,d</em> and<em> r</em>  are the mass, volume, density and radius of the oil droplet respectively and <em>g </em>is the gravitational acceleration (g=9,80665 m/sn^2). By using the first equation and solving it for the electric field we can write,

q.E=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.r^3.d.g\\E=\frac{4}{3}.\pi.\frac{r^3.d.g}{q}\\E=\frac{4}{3}.\pi\frac{(1,6x10^{-4})^3.(0,85x10^{-3}).(9,81)}{1,6x10^{-19}}\\E\approx 3,49x10^{5}  (N/C)

(Note: d=0.85 x 10^-3 kg/cm^3 and the unit of electric field is Newton per coulumb (N/C))
