Is it possible to produce a continuous and oriented aramid fiber–epoxy matrix composite having longitudinalandtransverse moduli

Masja [62]

Answer:

Not possible

Explanation:

$E_{cl}$ = longitudinal modulus of elasticity = 35 Gpa

$E_{ct}$ = transverse modulus of elasticity = 5.17 Gpa

$E_m$ = Epoxy modulus of elasticity = 3.4 Gpa

$V_{\rho l}$ = Volume fraction of fibre (longitudinal)

$V_{\rho t}$ = Volume fraction of fibre (transvers)

$E_f$ = Modulus of elasticity of aramid fibers = 131 Gpa

Longitudinal modulus of elasticity is given by

$E_{cl}=E_m(1-V_{\rho l})+E_fV_{\rho l}\\\Rightarrow 35=3.4(1-V_{\rho l})+131V_{\rho l}\\\Rightarrow 35=3.4-3.4V_{\rho l}+131V_{\rho l}\\\Rightarrow V_{\rho l}=\frac{35-3.4}{131-3.4}\\\Rightarrow V_{\rho l}=0.24764$

Transverse modulus of elasticity is given by

$E_{ct}=\frac{E_mE_f}{(1-V_{\rho t})E_f+V_{\rho t}E_m}\\\Rightarrow 5.17=\frac{3.4\times 131}{(1-V_{\rho t})131+V_{\rho t}3.4}\\\Rightarrow \frac{3.4\times 131}{5.17}-131=-127.6V_{\rho t}\\\Rightarrow V_{\rho t}=\frac{\frac{3.4\times 131}{5.17}-131}{-127.6}\\\Rightarrow V_{\rho t}=0.35148$

$V_{\rho l}\neq V_{\rho t}$

Hence, it is not possible to produce a continuous and oriented aramid fiber.

A diver leaves the end of a 4.0 m high diving board and strikes the water 1.3s later, 3.0m beyond the end of the board. Consider

shutvik [7]

Answer:

4.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the diver is the motion of a projectile: so we need to find the horizontal and the vertical component of the initial velocity.

Let's consider the horizontal motion first. This motion occurs with constant speed, so the distance covered in a time t is

$d=v_x t$

where here we have

d = 3.0 m is the horizontal distance covered

vx is the horizontal velocity

t = 1.3 s is the duration of the fall

Solving for vx,

$v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{3.0 m}{1.3 s}=2.3 m/s$

Now let's consider the vertical motion: this is an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. The vertical position at time t is given by

$y(t) = h + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 4.0 m is the initial height

vy is the initial vertical velocity

We know that at t = 1.3 s, the vertical position is zero: y = 0. Substituting these numbers, we can find vy

$0=h+v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\v_y = \frac{0.5gt^2-h}{t}=\frac{0.5(9.8 m/s^2)(1.3 s)^2-4.0 m}{1.3 s}=3.3 m/s$

So now we can find the magnitude of the initial velocity:

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(2.3 m/s)^2+(3.3 m/s)^2}=4.0 m/s$

What is the meaning of technology

slamgirl [31]

The exact definition of technology is: The application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.

The way I would put it is that technology isn’t just electronics, smartphones, and flying cars. Technology is information that people reveal and figure out and this is why it advances. You hear all the time the “advances in technology” and it’s a term that has grown rapidly. It helps businesses to progress, it’s taught people, it’s in some ways beneficial to people’s lives. It has many meanings and really that is technology simply put.
