Usually the first digit of the vin id’s the country it was built. So technician A would be correct. That’s usually how it is. Hope this helps. Please let me know if this is incorrect

Q4. (20 points) For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 271 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 1

babunello [35]

Answer:

a) P = 86720 N

b) L = 131.2983 mm

Explanation:

σ = 271 MPa = 271*10⁶ Pa

E = 119 GPa = 119*10⁹ Pa

A = 320 mm² = (320 mm²)(1 m² / 10⁶ mm²) = 3.2*10⁻⁴ m²

a) P = ?

We can apply the equation

σ = P / A ⇒ P = σ*A = (271*10⁶ Pa)(3.2*10⁻⁴ m²) = 86720 N

b) L₀ = 131 mm = 0.131 m

We can get ΔL applying the following formula (Hooke's Law):

ΔL = (P*L₀) / (A*E) ⇒ ΔL = (86720 N*0.131 m) / (3.2*10⁻⁴ m²*119*10⁹ Pa)

⇒ ΔL = 2.9832*10⁻⁴ m = 0.2983 mm

Finally we obtain

L = L₀ + ΔL = 131 mm + 0.2983 mm = 131.2983 mm

For the speed equation along centerline of a diffuser, calculate the fluid acceleration along the diffuser centerline as a funct

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}$ , $v (x) = v_{in}\cdot \left[1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1 \right)\cdot x \right]^{-1}$ , $\frac{dv}{dx} = -v_{in}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{L}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1 \right) \cdot \left[1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}} -1 \right) \cdot x \right]^{-2}$

Explanation:

Let suppose that fluid is incompressible and diffuser works at steady state. A diffuser reduces velocity at the expense of pressure, which can be modelled by using the Principle of Mass Conservation:

$\dot m_{in} - \dot m_{out} = 0$

$\dot m_{in} = \dot m_{out}$

$\dot V_{in} = \dot V_{out}$

$v_{in} \cdot A_{in} = v_{out}\cdot A_{out}$

The following relation are found:

$\frac{v_{out}}{v_{in}} = \frac{A_{in}}{A_{out}}$

The new relationship is determined by means of linear interpolation:

$A (x) = A_{in} +\frac{A_{out}-A_{in}}{L}\cdot x$

$\frac{A(x)}{A_{in}} = 1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left( \frac{A_{out}}{A_{in}}-1\right)\cdot x$

After some algebraic manipulation, the following for the velocity as a function of position is obtained hereafter:

$\frac{v_{in}}{v(x)} = 1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1\right) \cdot x$

$v(x) = \frac{v_{in}}{1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1 \right)\cdot x}$

$v (x) = v_{in}\cdot \left[1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1 \right)\cdot x \right]^{-1}$

The acceleration can be calculated by using the following derivative:

$a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}$

The derivative of the velocity in terms of position is:

$\frac{dv}{dx} = -v_{in}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{L}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}}-1 \right) \cdot \left[1 + \left(\frac{1}{L}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{v_{in}}{v_{out}} -1 \right) \cdot x \right]^{-2}$

The expression for acceleration is derived by replacing each variable and simplifying the resultant formula.
