(a)
The tensile and yield strength of the UNS G10200 hot-rolled steel.
Explanation of Solution
The ability of material to withstand pulling force is called as tensile strength. The tensile strength express as the force per unit area.
The amount of stress that causes permanent deformation in the material is called as yield strength. It is the maximum stress after which the material changes their shape. The material deforms permanently after the elastic limit.
Refer to the Table A-20 “Deterministic ASTM Minimum Tensile and Yield Strengths for Some Hot-Rolled (HR) and Cold-Drawn (CD) Steels” to obtain the tensile and yield strength as

- Q15. Materials 605M36 and 655M31 have the same yield and ultimate tensile strengths and the same percentage elongation, yet they are not the same steels. What are their carbon equivalents? 605M36 655M31arrow_forwardA shear pin made from a 4340 steel (0.4% C) fails by ductile fracture. It was supposed to be initially normalised, austenitised, quenched and tempered to 100% martensite to give a hardness of 5.5 GPa. The hardness was measured to be 4.5 GPa. Which of the following summaries most accurately accounts for what may have gone wrong? O Insufficiently heating the steel would result in partial austenitisation, leading to only partial martensite after quenching and a reduction in final hardness. The temper could still occur at the correct conditions and still lead to an insufficient strength and encouraging ductile failure. O Performing a full austenitisation but then cooling slower than the critical cooling rate for the alloy would allow some ferrite/pearlite to form after the martensite reaction has finished. This would be softer than the tempered martensite and so reduce the final hardness. O Assuming a full austenitisation and then cooling faster than the critical cooling rate, the hardness…arrow_forwardProblems 1. A Rockwell hardness measurement is made on a ductile iron (80-55-06 as cast) and the obtained Rockwell hardness R scale is 13 HRC. Predict the tensile and yield strengths of this material. 2. A Brinell hardness measurement is made on a ductile iron (120-90-02, Oil-quenched) using a 10-mm-diameter sphere of tungsten carbide. A load of 3,000 kg produces a 3.52-mm- diameter impression in the iron surface. a. Calculate the BHN of this alloy. (The correct units for the Brinell equation are kilograms for load and millimeters for diameters.) b. Predict the tensile and yield strengths 3. Suppose that a ductile iron (100-70-03, air-quenched) has a tensile strength of 800 MPa. What diameter impression would you expect the 3,000-kg load to produce with the 10-mm- diameter ball?
