The tip of a thumbtack has a diameter of approximately 0.3 mm. You place the tip of the thumbtack against the skin of your arm, and balance a medium-sized apple on the flat head of the tack. Will the weight of the apple provide sufficient compressive stress (direct pressure) on your skin to puncture it

Slip occurs via two partial dislocations because of (a) the shorter path of the partial dislocation lines; (b) the lower energy state through partial dislocations; (c) the charge balance.

Hydraulic fluid with a sg. of 0.78 is flowing through a 1.5 in. i.d. pipe at 58 gal/min. the fluid has an absolute viscosity of 11.8 x 105 lbf-sec/ft2. is the flow laminar, turbulent or within the critical range? give both a numerical reynolds number and a term answer.

Ahot wire operates at a temperature of 200°c while the air temperature is 20°c. the hot wire element is a tungsten wire of 5 um diameter and 2 mm in length. plot using excel current, heat transfer and heat generated by the wire for air velocity varying from 1-10 m/s in steps of lm/s? matlab the sensor voltage output, resistance, or assume nu 0.989 re033pr13 take air properties at tr (200°c20°c)/2 = 110°c properties of tungsten: c 0.13 kj/kg.k 3 p 19250 kg/m k (thermal conductivity) = 174 w/m.k
