Chapter 11, Problem 7P
The pulse�echo ultrasonic technique can be used to determine the thickness of a part or structure. By accurately measuring the time it takes for a short ultrasonic pulse to travel through the thickness of a material, reflect from the back or inside surface, and return to the transducer, the distance can be calculated by:
Where:
- d is the thickness of the test piece.
- VÂ is the speed of sound in the material being tested.
- t is the measured round�trip time.
What are some alternative means of measuring thickness? Briefly discuss their relative pros and cons. Consider such features as geometric and material constraints and the ability to measure from one side only.

When calculating the average speed of an automobile (V = x/t), the distance (x) and the time elapsed (t) are measured. The distance covered by the car was 830 km ± 15
km and the elapsed time was measured as 11 h±0,4 h. In this case, what is the minimum error percentage calculated with the rational approach? (In calculations, use 3
digits after the comma.)

O A) Error(min) = %5,4
O B) Error(min) = %2,5
O ) Error(min) = %5,0
O D) Error(min) = - %5,4
O E) Error(min) = - %5,0

For this, two different instruments are used; an analog micrometer and a digital vernier caliper, both recently calibrated and with the same resolution (0.01 mm). The calibration certificate data of the analog micrometer and the digital vernier are shown in tables 5 and 6 respectively. In both cases the calibration uncertainty does not include the contribution of resolution uncertainty. Additionally, there are drift studies for both instruments and it is established that the drift of the micrometer is ± 0.002 mm while the drift of the vernier is ± 0.02 mm. The same number of measurements were performed with both instruments to avoid repeatability biases under controlled environmental conditions. Table 7 shows the results of the measurements of both instruments. The temperature of the piece was monitored with a digital thermometer whose calibration uncertainty is 0.1 °C, which already includes…arrow_forward
