A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 76 MPa (69.16 ksi). If the plate is exposed to a tensile stress of 363 MPa (52650 psi) during use, determine the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture. Assume a value of 1.07 for Y.

Ahe-xe mixture containing a 0.75 mole fraction of helium is used for cooling electronics in an avionics application. at a temperature of 300 k and atmospheric pressure, calculate the mass fraction of helium and the mass density, molar concentration and molecular weight of the mixture. if the cooling capacity is 10 l, what is the mass of the coolant?
