A stress of 2500 psi is applied to a polymer serving as a fastener in a complex assembly. At a constant strain, the stress drops to 2400 psi after 100 h. If the stress on the part must remain above 2100 psi in order for the part to function properly, determine the life of the assembly.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.

Condition monitoring is a major component of. (clo4) a)- predictive maintenance. b)-preventive maintenance c)-proactive maintenance d)-reactive maintenance.

Apiston-cylinder device contains 0.1 m3 of liquid water and 0.9 m3 of water vapor in equilibrium at 800 kpa. heat is transferred at constant pressure until the temperature of water reaches 350 °c. determine (a) the quality of water at the initial state (b) the work associated with this process, (c) the heat associated with this process.
