Chapter 1, Problem 1.2CP

When a person ice skates, the surface of the ice actually melts beneath the blades, so that he or she skates on a thin sheet of water between the blade and the ice.

(a) Find an expression for total friction force on the bottom of the blade as a function of skater velocity V, blade length L, water thickness (between the blade and the ice) h, water viscosity μ , and blade width W.

(b) Suppose an ice skater of total mass m is skating along at a constant speed of V0when she suddenly stands stiff with her skates pointed directly forward, allowing herself to coast to a stop. Neglecting friction due to air resistance, how far will she travel before she comes to a stop? (Remember, she is coasting on two skate blades.) Give your answer for the total distance traveled, x, as a function of V0, m, L, h, μ , and W.

(c) Find x for the case where V0= 4.0 m/s, m = 100 kg, L = 30 cm, W = 5.0 mm, and h = 0.10 mm. Do you think our assumption of negligible air resistance is a good one?

Qu. 5 Composite materials are becoming more widely used in aircraft industry due to their high strength, low weight and excellent corrosion resistant properties. As an engineer who is given task to design the I beam section of an aircraft (see Figure 7) please, answer the following questions given the material properties in Table 3. Determine the Moduli of Elasticity of Carbon/Epoxy, Aramid/Epoxy, and Boron /Epoxy composites in the longitudinal direction, given that the composites consist of 25 vol% epoxy and 75 vol% fiber. What are the specific moduli of each of these composites? What are the specific strengths (i.e. specific UTS) of each of these composites? What is the final cost of each of these composites?please show all work step by step problems make sure to see formula material science
