A circular specimen of MgO is loaded in three-point bending. Calculate the minimum possible radius of the specimen without fracture, given that: the applied load is 5560 N the flexural strength is 105 MPa the separation between the supports is 45 mm Input your answer as X. XX mm, but without the unit of mm.

Coiled springs ought to be very strong and stiff. si3n4 is a strong, stiff material. would you select this material for a spring? explain.

Consider a large isothermal enclosure that is maintained at a uniform temperature of 2000 k. calculate the emissive power of the radiation that emerges from a small aperture on the enclosure surface. what is the wavelength ? , below which 10% of the emission is concentrated? what is the wavelength ? 2 above which 10% of the emission is concentrated? determine the wavelength at which maximum spectral emissive power occurs. what is the irradiation incident on a small object placed inside the enclosure?

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.
