A hydraulic cylinder pushes a heavy tool during the outward stroke, placing a compressive load of 400Ib in the piston rod. During the return stroke, the rod pulls on the tool with a force of 1500Ib. Calculate the resulting design factor for the 0.6 in-diameter rod when subjected to this pattern of forces for many cycles. Discuss your result and justify if the design factor is appropriate, too low or too high. The material is SAE 4130 WQT 1300 steel. Assume wrought steel, machined, and 99% reliability.

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

To design a steam turbine to produce 12,000 hp power. a engineer comsiders using a steady state stean low st 1160fr and engineer considers using a steady state steam flow at 1160°r and 450 psia to drive this steam turbine. the exhaust of the steam is cooled by the lake (vacuum). heat losing to the surroundings is measured at a rate of 555.55 btu/s. (a) sketch the system with the given conditions. (b) neglecting kinetic and potential energy changes from inlet to exit, determine the volumetric flow rate of the steam at the inlet, (ft'/hr). must clearly show unit conversions at crtical terms.

What is the maximum height from which a mass of 30 kg can fall on to a flange on the lower end of a vertical rod of length 1.0 m and diameter 20 mm, the upper end being rigidly fixed, if the stress in the rod is not to exceed 80 mpa? the tensile modulus of the rod is 200 gpa.
