The link acts as part of the elevator control for a small airplane. If the attached aluminum tube has an inner diameter of 25 mm and a wall thickness of 5 mm, determine the maximum shear stress in the tube when the cable force of 600 N is applied to the cables. Also, sketch the shear-stress distribution over the cross section.

During a steady flow process, the change of energy with respect to time is zero. a)- true b)- false

Modern high speed trains do not have perpendicular expansion gaps where rails are joined end-to-end any more they are mostly welded together but what might happen if there was a spell of particularly hot weather that causes inspection of the tracks?

Air inially occupying a volume of 1 m2 at 100 kpa, 27 c undergoes three internally reversible processes in series. process 1-2 compression to 500 kpa during which pv constant process 2-3 adiabatic expanslon to 100 kpa process 3-1: constant-pressure expansion to 100 kpa (a) calculate the change of entropy for each of the three processes. (b) calculate the heat and work involved in each process. (c) is this cycle a power cycle or refrigeration cycle?
