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 internal crack of length 0.25 mm that has a tip radius of curvature of 0.006 mm when a stress of 1060 MPa is applied. Group of answer choices(A) 16,760 MPa
(B) 8,380 MPa
(C) 132,500 MPa
(D) 364 MPa

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

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.

The sum of the normal stresses does not change as the stress state rotates through an angle. a)-trune b)- false
