A rotating beam is subject to an alternating stress of 48 kpsi and a mean stress of 24 kpsi. The ultimate strength of the material is 100 kpsi and the fully correctly endurance limit is 40 kspi. Calculate the factor of safety using the Goodman fatigue failure theory to show this is finite life. Then, calculate the life of the beam in number of cycles.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.

The power source in a certain welding setup generates 3500w that is transferred to the low carbon steel work with a heat transfer factor of 0.85. the melting factor in the operation is 0.45. a continuous fillet weld is to be made with a cross-sectional area of 23 mm2 determine the travel speed at which the welding can be accomplished.
