For a bolted assembly with six bolts, the stiffness of each bolt is kb = 2 Mlbf/in and the stiffness of the members is km = 14 Mlbf/in per bolt. An external load of 80 kips is applied to the entire joint. Assume the load is equally distributed to all the bolts. It has been determined to use 1/2 in-13 UNC grade 8 bolts with rolled threads. It is desired to find the range of torque that a mechanic could apply to initially preload the bolts without expecting failure once the joint is loaded. Assume a torque coefficient of K = 0.2. Required:
a. Determine the yielding factor of safety,
b. Determine the overload factor of safety,
c. Determine the factor of safety baserd on joint seperation.

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?

Prove the equivalence between the two statements of the 2nd law of thermodynamics (i.e., a violation of one statement leads to the violatio the other statement)

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
