Boron coated with SiC (or Borsic) reinforced aluminum containing aligned 20 vol% fibers is an important high-temperature, lightweight composite material. Estimate the modulus of elasticity perpendicular to the fibers. The modulus of elasticity of the fibers is 55 X 106 psi and the modulus of elasticity of aluminum is 10 X 106 psi.
a. 19 X 106 psi
b. 55 X 106 psi
c. 12 X 106 psi
d. 10 X 106 psi

It may seem strange that the selected velocity does not depend on either the mass or the charge of the particle. (for example, would the velocity of a neutral particle be selected by passage through this device? ) the explanation of this is that the mass and the charge control the resolution of the device--particles with the wrong velocity will be accelerated away from the straight line and will not pass through the exit slit. if the acceleration depends strongly on the velocity, then particles with just slightly wrong velocities will feel a substantial transverse acceleration and will not exit the selector. because the acc
