Estimate the theoretical fracture strength (in mpa) of a brittle material if it is known that fracture occurs by the propagation of an elliptically-shaped surface crack of length 0.25 mm that has a tip radius of curvature of 0.004 mm when a stress of 1060 mpa is applied.

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.

A)-explain briefly the importance of standards in engineering design. b)- what is patent? c)-explain the relationship between these standards: b.s. and b.s.en d)- in engineering design concepts, types of loads and how they act are important factors. explain.

The power source in a certain welding setup generates 3500w that is transferred to the low carbon steel work with a heat transfer factor of 0.85. the melting factor in the operation is 0.45. a continuous fillet weld is to be made with a cross-sectional area of 23 mm2 determine the travel speed at which the welding can be accomplished.
