The center of a rod must be machined on a lathe to a smaller diameter for use as a specimen in a tension test. The rod material is expected to break at a normal stress
of 65,800 psi. If the tension testing machine can apply no more than 975 lb of
force to the specimen, what is the maximum rod diameter that should be used for
the specimen? Precision: 0.000

The mass flow rate of the fluid remains constant in all steady flow process. a)- true b)- false

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

Steam enters a converging nozzle at 3.0 mpa and 500°c with a at 1.8 mpa. for a nozzle exit area of 32 cm2, determine the exit velocity, mass flow rate, and exit mach number if the nozzle: negligible velocity, and it exits (a) is isentropic (b) has an efficiency of 94 percent
