Studs used in a turbo pump were made from 0.35C-1.5Ni-1.0Cr-0.2Mo steel, quenched and tempered to 400 HV hardness, cadmium-plated and baked at 200°C for 2 h. The studs used in a turbo pump failed after 3 months of assembly. A fractograph of a failed stud revealed a predominantly intergranular mode mixed with ductile failure features. Increasing the baking time to 12 h considering the low diffusivity of hydrogen across the relatively impervious cadmium coating solved the problem. Explain the cause...

There are n marble balls, one of which is made of a different material. You have access to a Comparator that can compare two inputs (of an arbitrary number of marble balls) and determine if the two inputs are the same or not. The problem is to find the single marble ball that is different from the others while minimizing the number of times you access the Comparator. Design an efficient algorithm based on prune-and-search to solve the problem. Derive...

A cylindrical resistor with radius K and length L is made from a material with conductivity ?. The potential difference between the circular ends is V. What is the current that flows from one end to the other? What is the resistance? Show that the resistance you found is R = ?L/A, where ? is the resistivity of the material, and A is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder. (Hint: The electric field is constant throughout the resistor, but its...

Description: An airplane is flying from San Francisco to Seattle which is a distance of approximately 1200 km. The cruising speed of the plane (VP ) is 400 km/hr relative to the air, and on a calm day (no wind) the pilot would fly on a path, due north, arriving in Seattle exactly 3.0 hours after leaving San Francisco(ignoring the time spent taxiing, taking off, landing etc.). However, today, the wind is blowing due east with a constant velocity (VW)...
