Determine the required number of active coils and permissable deflection in a helical spring made of 1.6 mm diameter steel wire, assuming a spring index of 6 and allowable stress of 345 mpa in shear. the spring rate is to be 1.75 n/mm.

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

An ideal otto cycle with air as the working fluid has a compression ratio of 8. the minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 300 k and 1340 k. use constant specific heats at room temperature to determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air during the heat- addition kj/kg, (b) the thermal efficiency, and (c) the thermal efficiency of a carnot cycle ope limits. process, in rating between the same temperature

You are making beer. the first step is filling the glass carboy with the liquid wort. the internal diameter of the carboy is 15 in., and you wish to fill it up to a depth of 2 ft. if your wort is drawn from the kettle using a siphon process that flows at 3 gpm, how long will it take to fill?
