Problem 3 (36 Pts)

The steel pipe is 0.5 m long and has an internal diameter of 60 mm and an external diameter of 80 mm. The Young’s modulus E is 200 GPa and the Poisson ratio ν is 0.32. The pipe experiences a twisting moment of 8 kNm and a bending moment of 3.5 kNm.

4p a) Sketch roughly how the angle of rotation and vertical displacement change as a function of distance from the free end of the pipe to the wall.

8p b) Determine the torsion angle and vertical displacement at the free end of the pipe.

6p c) Determine the stress at the top and bottom of the beam at an arbitrary cross- section, say at a-a.

6p d) Determine (i) the principal stress, (ii) the maximum shear stress, and (iii) average normal stress if available.

4p e) Determine whether plastic deformation occurs. Here, the elastic limit for steel is 250 MPa.

4p f) The base of the rod is fastened to the wall by 4 bolts, 2 vertical and 2 horizontal. Analyze different stresses (in normal stress, shear stress, or both) experienced by different bolts.

4p g) If the bolts are 6 mm in diameter and made of the same steel. With the increase of two moments in proportion, which bolt will yield first and how will the yield look like?

You are expected to write a program from scratch. In the program, an array will be initialized with 23 random integers between 1000 and 1999 (inclusive). The output of the program is 4 lines on the screen, specifically,

  • All elements in the array (line 1)
  • All elements in reverse order (line 2)
  • Every element that is less than 1500 and also at an odd index (line 3)
  • Every odd element that is larger than 1500 (line 4)

Note that you have to use the method Math.random() we covered previously to generate the random numbers. Other ways like using Random class we haven't covered or just reading in 23 numbers from keyboards are NOT accepted.

Please explain/comment on what each line means and what the process is. Thank you, I appreciate it.

Struggling with the bolded questions

Matt Holmes recently joined Klax Company as a staff accountant in the controller's office. Klax Company provides warehousing services for companies in several midwestern cities.

The location in Dubuque, Iowa, has not been performing well due to increased competition and the loss of several customers that have recently gone out of business. Matt's department manager suspects that the plant and equipment may be impaired and wonders whether those assets should be written down. Given the company's prior success, this issue has never arisen in the past, and Matt has been asked to conduct some research on this issue.

Instructions

If your school has a subscription to the FASB Codification, log in and prepare responses to the following. Provide Codification references for your responses.

a.  

What is the authoritative guidance for asset impairments? Briefly discuss the scope of the standard (i.e., explain the types of transactions to which the standard applies).

360-10-05-4 shows that the authoritative guidance for asset impairments provides guidance for :

-recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used.

-measurements of the long lived-asset to be disposed of by sale

-disclosures about the impairment or disposal of long lived assets and disposals of individually significant components of an entity

b.  

Give several examples of events that would cause an asset to be tested for impairment. Does it appear that Klax should perform an impairment test? Explain.

We can find the reasons that an asset would be tested for impairment in 360-10-35-21. They can be tested if:

-there is a large decrease in the market price of the long-lived asset

- if there is a big adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used or in its physical condition.

- A large adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset , including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator

- An accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-lived asset

- current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset

- A current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. The term more likely than not refers to a level of likelihood that is more than 50 percent.

c.  

What is the best evidence of fair value? Describe alternate methods of estimating fair value.

The best evidence of fair value can be found in 360-10-35-36. This states that long-lived assets that are similar in uncertainties dealing with timing amount, an expected present value technique is typically the appropriate technique to estimate fair value.

11.10 LAB: All permutations of names

PLEASE ANSWER IN C++!

Write a program that lists all ways people can line up for a photo (all permutations of a list of strings). The program will read a list of one word names (until -1), and use a recursive method to create and output all possible orderings of those names, one ordering per line.

When the input is:

Julia Lucas Mia -1

then the output is (must match the below ordering):

Julia Lucas Mia 
Julia Mia Lucas 
Lucas Julia Mia 
Lucas Mia Julia 
Mia Julia Lucas 
Mia Lucas Julia 

----File: main.cpp----

#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

// TODO: Write method to create and output all permutations of the list of names.
void AllPermutations(const vector<string> &permList, const vector<string> &nameList) {

}

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
vector<string> nameList;
vector<string> permList;
string name;

// TODO: Read in a list of names; stop when -1 is read. Then call recursive method.

return 0;

You are the CEO of PlatesRUs license plate manufacturing conglomerate. State regulators tell you that each license plate must contain 2 letters (26 possible letters, A through Z) and 3 numbers (10 possible digits, 0 through 9).

a. State regulators also tell you that the numbers and letters cannot repeat (E.g., AB123 is valid, but AA123 is not). How many different plates are possible? (Note: on a license plate, order matters. AB123 is different from BA123.)

b. Regulators have stated new rules: plates still contain 2 letters and 3 numbers, but now the numbers and letters can be in any of the 5 positions. The numbers and letters still do not repeat on these new plates. (E.g., 1A23B is now valid, but 1A13B is not.) How many plates are possible now?

c. Assume now that plates are still designed as in part b, except that the no-letter-or-- number-repeat clause is not enforced any more. What is the probability that a given plate contains the numbers 777 in succession (i.e. right next to each other, with no letters in between)?
