- A steel cylinder is placed on top of a brass cylinder. Each cylinder is 30 cm tall and has a diameter of 10 cm. Upon a load of 20 kg being placed on top of a steel cylinder, by how much will the length of a brass cylinder be compressed?arrow_forwardThe steel band shown is 50 mm wide and is secured around the smooth rigid cylinder. If the bolts are tightened so that the tension in them is 1800 N, find the normal stress in the band, the pressure exerted on the cylinder and the distance half the band stretches. Assume E = 200 GPa.arrow_forwardThe figure presents the stress as a function of the common strain for a ductile metal under a given stress. From the previous graph and the exposition on this subject. Which of the following statements is true? Answers: a) The proportional limit is a point that defines two regions: where Hooke's law for elastic behavior holds and does not hold. This point on the graph is marked with the letter b. b) If the charge is removed from the material at any point from O to point b, the material does not return to its original shape and energy is not conserved. c) From O to point a, there is an elastic behavior of the material and presents a linear trend, Hooke's law is fulfilled. d) The maximum stress that can be applied to a material without permanently deforming is indicated in the graph by point d.arrow_forward
- For a one-component system under conditions of constant pressure, how many phases can normally be at equilibrium? (Answer with an integer.)arrow_forwardA rubber band 20 cm long has a cross-sectional area of 0.04cm^2. What load (in dynes) will stretch the rubber band 0.05cm if the modulus of elasticity of rubber band is 4x10^-15dynes/cm^2?arrow_forwardA common small boat for use in quiet streams and lakes has a flat bottom and is approximately rectangular in shape like the smaller ones in this photo. For fishing they would be about 5.4 m long, 1.3 meters across at the bottom, and have a hull mass of 215 kg (475 lb weight) if made of aluminum. Along a side they might have a depth of 0.6 meter (about two feet) from the upper edge to the bottom, though many small ones are not that deep. What is the maximum load that could be put into the boat in addition to its own mass that it could still float without being swamped by water over the 0.6 m sides?arrow_forward
- Calculate the relative change in volume as the air pressure (1x10 * Pa) around a piece of metal decreases to zero by placing the piece in the void. If you know that the modulus of volumetric elasticity of the metal is equal to (125GPa)?arrow_forwardFor lack of a suitable material supply, a thin-walled cylinder is machined from a thick plate of 7178-T651 aluminum alloy such that the cylinder axis is oriented parallel to the rolling direction of the plate. If the cylinder’s diameter and wall thickness are 5 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively, determine whether the cylinder could withstand a pressure of 50 MPa in the presence of a 0.2-cm-deep semicircular surface flaw.arrow_forwardPortable (notebook) computers and digital cameras can have their housing made of magnesium. Why?arrow_forward
- Graphite consists of planes of carbon atoms. Between atoms in the planes there are only weak forces. What kind of elastic properties do you expect from graphite?arrow_forwardMosses don’t spread by dispersing seeds; they disperse tiny spores. The spores are so small that they will stay aloft and move with the wind, but getting them to be windborne requires the moss to shoot the spores upward. Some species do this by using a spore-containing capsule that dries out and shrinks. The pressure of the air trapped inside the capsule increases. At a certain point, the capsule pops, and a stream of spores is ejected upward at 3.6 m/s, reaching an ultimate height of 20 cm. What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is converted to the final potential energy? What happens to the “lost” energy?arrow_forwardFluids have a surface tension, which means that requires that creating more surface requires energy. In order to create more water surface (for example, water spreading over a table top), an energy cost must be paid of about 73 mJ/m2. Lets say you have water in a rectangular container that is 35 cm by 20 cm. Now you want to stretch the longer side by 4 cm. With what force does the surface tension of the water resist that change? Answer in Newtons to four decimal places.arrow_forward
