A cross beam in a highway bridge experiences a stress of 14 ksi due to the dead weight of the bridge structure. When a fully loaded tractor-trailer crosses over the bridge, however, the stress in the beam increases to 45 ksi. The beam is fabricated from steel with an ultimate tensile strength of 76 ksi, a yield strength of 50 ksi, and an endurance limit of 38 ksi. Find the safety factor for an infinite fatigue life: a. if the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is ignored
b. when the effect of mean stress on fatigue strength is considered.

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.

Air (c-1.006 kj/kg. k, r-0.287 kj/kg. k) enters a nozzle steadily at 280 kpa and 77°c with a velocity of 50 m/s and exits at 85 kpa and 320 m/s. the heat losses from the nozzle to the surrounding medium at 20°c are estimated to be 3.2 kj/kg. determine (a) the exit temperature and (b) the total entropy change for this process. solve this problem using constant specific heats.
