a) Assume that you have two AISI 1045 cylindrical samples with two different diameters: one 1 in. thick and the other 2 in. thick.

a) Assume that you have two AISI 1045 cylindrical samples with two different diameters: one 1 in. thick and the other 2 in. thick. You astenitize and quench both samples in water. Then you cut a section and measure the hardness at the center of each sample. Would you expect to get the same results? Explain your answer. b) Assume that you have two cylindrical steel samples with 1 in. diameter, one made out of AISI 1045 and another...

Two 50 ?? long, thin parallel straight wires (grey) are connected at their ends by metal springs. The mass of each thin wire is 1.0 ?. The upper wire is connected to the ceiling by (non-conducting) stiff rods. Each spring has an equilibrium length of 5.0 ?? and a spring constant of ? = 0.50 ?/?. A steady current ? runs clockwise through the wire-spring loop as indicated by the arrow. At equilibrium, the lower rod hangs at a level...
