A compression spring is needed to fit over a 0.5-in diameter rod. To allow for some clearance, the inside diameter of the spring is to be 0.6 in. To ensure a reasonable coil, use a spring index of 10. The spring is to be used in a machine by compressing it from a free length of 5 in through a stroke of 3 in to its solid length. The spring should have squared and ground ends, unpeened, and is to be made from cold-drawn wire. (a) Determine a suitable wire diameter. (b) Determine a suitable total number of coils. (c) Determine the spring constant. (d) Determine the static factor of safety when compressed to solid length. (e) Determine the fatigue factor of safety when repeatedly cycled from free length to solid length. Use the Gerber-Zimmerli fatigue-failure criterion.

Amass of 1.5 kg of air at 120 kpa and 24°c is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston-cylinder device. the air is now compressed to a final pressure of 720 kpa. during the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. calculate the boundary work input during this process.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
