Answer: c. Centre of pressure

Explanation:

Pressure is applied on a surface when a force is exerted on a particular point on that surface by another object when the two come into contact with each other.

The point where the pressure is applied is known as the centre of the pressure with the force then spreading out from this point much like an epicentre in an earthquake.

(a) The lower yield point for an iron that has an average grain diameter of 1 x 10-2 mm is 230 MPa. At a grain diameter of 6 x 1

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The answer is " $4.35 \times 10^{-3}\ mm$ and 157.5 MPa".

Explanation:

In point A:

The strength of its products with both the grain dimension is linked to this problem. This formula also for grain diameter of 310 MPA is represented as its low yield point

$y = yo + \frac{k}{\sqrt{x}}$

Here y is MPa is low yield point, x is mm grain size, and k becomes proportionality constant.

Replacing the equation for each condition:

$y = y_o + \frac{k}{\sqrt{(1 \times 10^{-2})}}\\\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ 230 = yo + 10k\\\\ y = yo + \frac{k}{\sqrt{(6\times 10^{-3})}}\\\\275 = yo + 12.90k$

People can get yo = 275 MPa with both equations and k= 15.5 Mpa $mm^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

To substitute the answer,

$310 = 275 + \frac{(15.5)}{\sqrt{x}}\\\\x = 0.00435 \ mm = 4.35 \times 10^{-3}\ mm$

In point b:

The equation is $\sigma y = \sigma 0 + k y d^{\frac{1}{2}}$

equation is:

$75 = \sigma o+4 ky \\\\175 = \sigma o+12 ky\\\\ky = 12.5 MPa (mm)^{\frac{1}{2}} \\\\ \sigma 0 = 25 MPa\\\\d= 8.9 \times 10^{-3}\\\\d^{- \frac{1}{2}} =10.6 mm^{-\frac{1}{2}}\\$

by putting the above value in the formula we get the $\sigma y$ value that is= 157.5 MPa

A person is planning a bungee jump from a 40 meter high bridge. Under the bridge is a river with crocodiles, so the person does

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a. l = 19.7m, b. 18.55m, c. Impact Force = 3889.84 N

Explanation:

The total energy of the system when the person is at top of the bridge is

Potential energy = mgh, Kinetic energy = 0

The total energy of the system when the person reaches just above the surface

Potential energy = 0, Kinetic energy = 0, Spring energy = ½ K X2, where k is the spring constant and X is the deflection

Applying conservation of energy

mgh = 0 + 0 + ½ K X²

80 x 9.81 x 40 = ½ (3600/l) X²

31392 = ½ (3600/l) X²

We can also conclude that

l+ X + 1.75 = 40

l + X = 38.25

a. Substitute the value of x from above into the energy conversion expression

31392 = ½ (3600/l)(38.25 - l)²

31392 x 2/3600 = (38.25 + l² – 2l(38.25))/l

17.44l = l2 – 76.5l + 38.25²

l² – 76.5l – 17.44l +1463.0625 = 0

Solving for l we get

L = 19.7

Hence, length of the rope is 19.7m

b. The deflection is calculated by using the relation between l and X

L + X = 38.25

X = 38.25 – 19.7 = 18.55m

c. The impact force is calculated using the impact force formula which relates the impact force with the deflection

F = KX

F = (3600/l) . X

F = (3600/19.7) . (18.55) = 3889.84 N

Thus, the impact force is 3889.84 N
