Fill in the correct answer.

The nuclear reactions resulting from thermal neutron absorption in boron and cadmium are 10B5 + 1 n0 ï 7Li3 + 4He2 113Cd48 + 1

kirill115 [55]

Solution :

The nuclear reaction for boron is given as :

$^{10}\textrm{B}_5 + ^{1}\textrm{n}_0 \rightarrow ^{7}\textrm{Li}_3 + ^{4}\textrm{He}_2$

And the reaction for Cadmium is :

$^{113}\textrm{Cd}_48 + ^{1}\textrm{n}_0 \rightarrow ^{114}\textrm{Cd}_48 + \gamma [5 \ \textrm{MeV}]$

We know that it is easier that to shield or stop an alpha particle (i.e. He nucli) as they can be stopped or obstructed by only a few centimetres of the material. However, the gamma rays ( γ ) can penetrate through the material to a greater distance. Therefore, we can choose the first one.

• Build upon the results of problem 3-85 to determine the minimum factor of safety for fatigue based on infinite life, using the

Rudik [331]

Answer:

minimum factor of safety for fatigue is = 1.5432

Explanation:

given data

AISI 1018 steel cold drawn as table

ultimate strength Sut = 63.800 kpsi

yield strength Syt = 53.700 kpsi

modulus of elasticity E = 29.700 kpsi

we get here

$\sigma a$ = $\sqrt{(\sigma a \times kb)^2+3\times (za\times kt)^2}$ ...........1

here kb and kt = 1 combined bending and torsion fatigue factor

put here value and we get

$\sigma a$ = $\sqrt{(12 \times 1)^2+3\times (0\times 1)^2}$

$\sigma a$ = 12 kpsi

and

$\sigma m$ = $\sqrt{(\sigma m \times kb)^2+3\times (zm\times kt)^2}$ ...........2

put here value and we get

$\sigma m$ = $\sqrt{(-0.9 \times 1)^2+3\times (10\times 1)^2}$

$\sigma m$ = 17.34 kpsi

now we apply here goodman line equation here that is

$\frac{\sigma m}{Sut} + \frac{\sigma a}{Se} = \frac{1}{FOS}$ ...................3

here Se = 0.5 × Sut

Se = 0.5 × 63.800 = 31.9 kspi

put value in equation 3 we get

$\frac{17.34}{63.800} + \frac{12}{31.9} = \frac{1}{FOS}$

solve it we get

FOS = 1.5432

A welding rod with κ = 30 (Btu/hr)/(ft ⋅ °F) is 20 cm long and has a diameter of 4 mm. The two ends of the rod are held at 500 °

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

In Btu:

Q=0.001390 Btu.

In Joule:

Q=1.467 J

Part B:

Temperature at midpoint=274.866 C

Explanation:

Thermal Conductivity=k=30 (Btu/hr)/(ft ⋅ °F)= $\frac{30}{3600} (Btu/s)/(ft.F)=8.33*10^{-3} (Btu/s)/(ft.F)$

Thermal Conductivity is SI units:

$k=30(Btu/hr)/(ft.F) * \frac{1055.06}{3600*0.3048*0.556} \\k=51.88 W/m.K$

Length=20 cm=0.2 m= (20*0.0328) ft=0.656 ft

Radius=4/2=2 mm =0.002 m=(0.002*3.28)ft=0.00656 ft

T_1=500 C=932 F

T_2=50 C= 122 F

Part A:

In Joules (J)

$A=\pi *r^2\\A=\pi *(0.002)^2\\A=0.00001256 m^2$

Heat Q is:

$Q=\frac{k*A*(T_1-T_2)}{L} \\Q=\frac{51.88*0.000012566*(500-50}{0.2}\\ Q=1.467 J$

In Btu:

$A=\pi *r^2\\A=\pi *(0.00656)^2\\A=0.00013519 m^2$

Heat Q is:

$Q=\frac{k*A*(T_1-T_2)}{L} \\Q=\frac{8.33*10^{-3}*0.00013519*(932-122}{0.656}\\ Q=0.001390 Btu$

PArt B:

At midpoint Length=L/2=0.1 m

$Q=\frac{k*A*(T_1-T_2)}{L}$

On rearranging:

$T_2=T_1-\frac{Q*L}{KA}$

$T_2=500-\frac{1.467*0.1}{51.88*0.00001256} \\T_2=274.866\ C$
