(a) What is the maximum load that may applied to the specimen
with a cross sectional area of 130 mm2 before it fractures?
(b) For the same cross sectional area, if the original length of
the specimen is 75 mm what will be the length of the specimen, when
a load of 13000 N is applied...
low carbon steel having a tensile strength of 350 MPa and shear
strength of 250 MPa is cut in a turning operation with a cutting
speed of 200 m/min. The feed is 0.3 mm/rev and the depth of cut is
4.8 mm. The rake angle of the tool is 12 degrees in the direction
of chip flow. The resulting chip ratio is 0.8. Using the orthogonal
model as an approximation of turning determine...

: Determine the LRFD tensile design strength and the ASD tensile
strength of the connection shown if eight 7/8-in bolts are used in
each flange to connect W18 X 76 with two 3/4 X 14-in plates.
Include block shear calculations. (Fy = 50 ksi, Fu = 65 ksi)
An ASTM A36 steel having a yield strength of 235 MPa, a tensile
strength of 640 MPa, and an endurance limit of 210 MPa is subjected
to a cyclic loading. Using the Goodman diagram, predict whether the
material has an infinite fatigue life, or whether it will fail by
yielding or fatigue, when the cyclic stress is between:
(i) 0 and 250 MPa.
(ii) 95 ± 220 MPa
The average tensile strength of carbon fiber cloth is 600 MPa.
You are testing a new weaving pattern for the carbon fiber threads
and want to know if this new weave causes a difference in the
tensile strength. After testing 18 samples of the new weave, you
found a sample average of 585 MPa with a standard deviation of 34
MPa. At a significance level of 0.05, test to see if this new weave
has a different mean than 600...
A process produces components with mean tensile strength of 85
MPa and standard deviation of 13 MPa. If the lowest acceptable

tensile strength of 3450 psi.
(a) Test the hypothesis that
the mean tensile strength is 3500 psi, using α =

hypothesis?
(c) What is the β error for
the test...
An engineer who is studying the tensile strength of a steel
