A cross beam in a highway bridge experiences a stress of 14 ksi due to the dead weight of the bridge structure. When a fully loa

ded tractor-trailer crosses over the bridge, however, the stress in the beam increases to 45 ksi. The beam is fabricated from steel with an ultimate tensile strength of 76 ksi, a yield strength of 50 ksi, and an endurance limit of 38 ksi. Find the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life:
a. if the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored
b. when the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is considered.

Answer:

a) 2.452

b) 1.256

Explanation:

Stress due to dead weight. = 14 Ksi

Stress due to fully loaded tractor-trailer = 45Ksi

ultimate tensile strength of beam = 76 Ksi

yield strength = 50 Ksi

endurance limit = 38 Ksi

Determine the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life

a) If mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored

β = ( 45 - 14 ) / 2

  = 15.5 Ksi

hence FOS ( factor of safety ) = endurance limit / β

                                                 = 38 / 15.5 = 2.452

b) When mean stress on fatigue strength is considered

β2 = 45 + 14 / 2

    = 29.5 Ksi

Ratio  = β / β2 = 15.5 / 29.5 = 0.5254

Next step: applying Goodman method

Sa =  [ ( 0.5254 * 38 *76 ) / ( 0.5254*76 + 38 ) ]

     = 19.47 Ksi

hence the FOS ( factor of safety ) = Sa / β

                                                      = 19.47 / 15.5 = 1.256

Draw a flowchart to represent the logic of a program that allows the user to enter values for the current year and the user’s bi
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Please, see the attachment.

Explanation:

First, we have to create two input boxes that allows the user to write the current year in one of them and his/her birth year in the another one. Also, we have to create a label that will show the result of the desired variable. We can write a message "Your age is:" and it will be attached to the result.

For the algorithm, let's call the variables as follows:

CY = Current Year

BY = Birth Year

X = Age of user

When the user inserts the current year and his/her birth year, the program will do the following operation:

X = CY - BY; this operation will give us the age of the user

After this the user will see something like "Your age is:" X.

How does refrigeration preserve food and dead bodies​
algol [13]

Answer:

The Purpose of Refrigeration. The fundamental reason for having a refrigerator is to keep food cold. Cold temperatures help food stay fresh longer. The basic idea behind refrigeration is to slow down the activity of bacteria (which all food contains) so that it takes longer for the bacteria to spoil the food.

The clepsydra, or water clock, was a device that the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, and Chinese used to measure the passage
Nookie1986 [14]

Suppose a tank is made of glass and has the shape of a right-circular cylinder of radius 1 ft. Assume that h(0) = 2 ft corresponds to water filled to the top of the tank, a hole in the bottom is circular with radius in., g = 32 ft/s2, and c = 0.6. Use the differential equation in Problem 12 to find the height h(t) of the water.

Answer:

Height of the water = √(128)/147456 ft

Explanation:

Given

Radius, r = 1 ft

Height, h = 2 ft

Radius of hole = 1/32in

Acceleration of gravity, g = 32ft/s²

c = 0.6

Area of the hold = πr²

A = π(1/32)² ---- Convert to feet

A = π(1/32 * 1/12)²

A = π/147456 ft²

Area of water = πr²

A = π 1²

A = π

The differential equation is;

dh/dt = -A1/A2 √2gh where A1 = Area of the hole and A2 = Area of water

A1 = π/147456, A2 = π

dh/dt = (π/147456)/π √(2*32*2)

dh/dt = 1/147456 * √128

dh/dt = √128/147456 ft

Height of the water = √(128)/147456 ft
