If a steel cylindrical specimen is stressed nominally to 65 MPa, what stress level exists at the tip of an elliptical surface flaw, whose length is 6.3 microns and radius of curvature is 1,066 nanometers ? Answer Format: X (no decimal) Unit: MPa Aside: You should be asking yourself if this magnified stress is a big deal or not ... Note that the yield strength of a typical low-carbon ductile steel is around 250 MPa.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

Water vapor initially at 10 bar and 400 °c is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. the water lost heat to the surrounding according to isochoric (iso-volumetric) process until its temperature is 150 °c. the water is then condensed isothermally to saturated liquid. for the water as a system, calculate the work in kj/kg
