- How does a tensile stress differ from a compressive stress?arrow_forwardA tensile test was performed on a metal specimen having a circular cross section with a diameter 0. 510 inch. For each increment of load applied, the strain was directly determined by means of a strain gage attached to the specimen. The results are, shown in Table: 1.5.1. a. Prepare a table of stress and strain. b. Plot these data to obtain a stress-strain curve. Do not connect the data points; draw a best-fit straight line through them. c. Determine the modulus of elasticity as the slope of the best-fit line.arrow_forwardThe data in Table 1.5.3 were obtained from a tensile test of a metal specimen with a rectangular cross section of 0.2011in.2 in area and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 2.000 inches. The specimen was not loaded to failure. a. Generate a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot these values and draw a best-fit line to obtain a stress-strain curve. c. Determine the modulus of elasticity from the slope of the linear portion of the curve. d. Estimate the value of the proportional limit. e. Use the 0.2 offset method to determine the yield stress.arrow_forward

Show the locations of stresses on an appropriate sketch. 3. (a) If you were designing a metallic tool to be used at very low temperatures (negative temperatures), which material class would be the best option? (b) If you wanted to increase the strength of that tool for that very low temperature, which strengthening method would be the best option?

- Comment on the following items: a. Why is the material “viscoelastic”? What is meant by this term? b. If more than one material is tested, how did the creep deformation of the different beams differ? Which ones demonstrated the most and least strains? c. Understanding the relationship between instantaneous and delayed elastic response, how does the strain behave at prolonged periods? What do you think would happen after the load is removed?arrow_forwardworking stress designarrow_forwardAn aluminum pipe must not stretch more than 0.05in when it issubjected to a tensile load. Knowing that E=10.1x10^6psi and that the maximum allowable normal stress is 14ksi, determine (a) the maximum allowable length of the pipe, and (b) the required area of the pipe if the tensile load is 127.5kips.arrow_forward
