A ceramic specimen with an elastic modulus of 300 GPa is under a tensile stress of 800 MPa. Will it fracture if its most severe flaw is an internal crack of 0.30 mm long with a tip radius of curvature in the amount of 0.0015 mm? Please justify your conclusion. (Hint: Compare the largest stress in the specimen around the crack to the theoretical strength which is roughly E/10).

Acarnot refrigerator operates in a room in which the temperature is 21°c and of power when operating. if the food compartment of the refrigerator is consumes 3 kw to be maintained at 2°c, determine (a) the coefficient of performance of the cycle and (b) the rate of heat removal from the food compartment. refrigerator cycle that has a higher coefficient of performance than that of the discussed (e) is it possible to develop a carn ot refrigerator, operating between the same temperature limits? explain
