For my medical device, I wish to create a material that is soft and will retain a lot of water. But I
also want it to be rigid and can withstand up to 50lbs of force. What material should I use?
Let's translate and analyze the statements:
The materials, for convenience, are separated into classes based on their constitution, arrangement of their atoms, and their properties. These classes, or groups, are:
Metals or metallic materials.
Ceramics or ceramic materials.
Polymers or polymeric materials.
Composites or composite materials.
Each of these classes has materials with structures and properties different from the other classes.
(CALLISTER JR., W. D.; RETHWISCH, D. G. Materials Science and Engineering: An Introduction. 8th ed. Rio de Janeiro: LTC Publisher, 2013).
Regarding the characteristics and properties of materials and considering their classification, judge the following statements:
The class of metallic materials comprises those materials characterized by a wide range of melting temperatures and stiffness, as well as good thermal and electrical conductivity.
Ceramic materials are notably characterized by their high melting temperatures and stiffness, which is…

- The core concept of materials science relies on the inter-dependent relationship among the structure, properties, performance, and processing which is represented in a tetrahedron known as Materials Science Tetrahedron (MST), shown in FIGURE Q1a. Using the concept of Materials Science Tetrahedron, answer the following questions pertaining to the choice of materials for engine blocks. An example of an engine block is shown in FIGURE Q1b. Performance Processing Structure Properties Figure Q1A Figure Q1B Question: Given that there are materials defects detected in the microstructure of the material used for the engine block, predict the impact on the performance of the engine block.arrow_forwardpls answer in print fontarrow_forwardWhen lifting weights, it turns out the amount of force you need to lift them doesn't necessarily match the dumbbell's weight — in other words, if an object weighs 100 N, the amount of force you actually need to apply is probably not 100 N. Observe the diagram below: You can think of the bones in your arms as rods that rotate about an axis of rotation (your elbow) depending on the magnitude, direction and position of the forces being applied. So in order for your arm to lift the weight, the torque exerted by the bicep should be greater than or equal to the torques being applied by the bones' center of mass and the weight your hand is holding. Notice how the bicep is connected to the arm bone (the radius) at a certain distance from the joint, and applies an upwards tension force (as the bicep contracts in order to lift objects). Show how the magnitude of the tension force exerted by the biceps muscle can differ greatly from the magnitude of the weight.arrow_forward
