Answer:

Opened Push-button Switch (i.e. a PTM Switch)

Explanation:

Tha's just another symbol for a switch, but this one specifies that the switch is a push-button type of switch.

Since it's not touching and completing the line, the state of the switch is initially open.

GMA MIG weiding is a

Dvinal [7]

Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), sometimes referred to by its subtypes metal inert gas (MIG) welding or metal active gas (MAG) welding, is a welding process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to melt and join.

A round bar of chromium steel, (ρ= 7833 kg/m, k =48.9 W/m-K, c =0.115 KJ/kg-K, α=3.91 ×10^-6 m^2/s) emerges from a heat treatmen

Lerok [7]

Answer:

Q = 424523.22 kw

Explanation:

$\rho =7833 kg/m$

k = 48.9 W/m - K

c = 0.115 KJ/kg- K

$\alpha = 3.91*10^{-6} m^2/s$

$T_s = 285 degree celcius$

T_∞ = 35 degree celcius

velocity of air stream = 15 m/s

D = 40 cm

L = 200 cm

mass flow rate $\dot m = \rho AV = 7833 *\frac{\pi}{4} 0.4^2*15$

$\dot m = 14764.85 kg/s$

$A_s = \pi DL = \pi 0.4*2 = 2.513 m^2$

$Q = \dot m C \Delta T = h A_s \Delta T$

$\dot m C \Delta T = h A_s \Delta T$

solving for h

$h = \frac{14764.85*0.115*(285-35)}{2.513*(285-35)}$

h = 675.6 kw/m^2K

$Q = h A_s\Delta T$

Q = 675.6*2.513*(285-35)

Q = 424523.22 kw

What is a shearing stress? Is there a force resulting from two solids in contact to which is it similar?

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Shearing stresses are the stresses generated in any material when a force acts in such a way that it tends to tear off the material.

Generally the above definition is valid at an armature level, in more technical terms shearing stresses are the component of the stresses that act parallel to any plane in a material that is under stress. Shearing stresses are present in a body even if normal forces act on it along the centroidal axis.

Mathematically in a plane AB the shearing stresses are given by

$\tau =\frac{Fcos(\theta )}{A}$

Yes the shearing force which generates the shearing stresses is similar to frictional force that acts between the 2 surfaces in contact with each other.
