Concept explainers
While parking your car, you accidentally back into a steel post. Yon pull forward until the car no longer touches the post and then get out to inspect the damage. What does your rear bumper look like if the strain in the impact was (a) less than at the proportional limit; (b) greater than at the proportional limit but less than at the yield point; (c) greater than at the yield point but less than at the fracture point; and (d) greater than at the fracture point?

The figure above shows a crane tower on site at the HWY 1 expansion and Stoney Trail extension in NW Calgary. You are a design engineer working for the company supplying cranes for the contractors and you have been asked to evaluate the tower design. The crane tower supporting the pulley is designed so that the resultant force from the cable tension running over the pulley is oriented along the tower axis. Note: The tension in the cable is the same on both sides so ||Fill = ||F2l|| = T.arrow_forward
- (A-(/2) (A-/2)(ptq)L)202 be 2. In engineering, the modulus of elasticity Is a way to measure how much an object deforms along an axis when opposing forces are applied among that axis. The formula can be expressed as E = ddsof elasticity, F is the axial force, & is a cdeformation measure, L s the original length of the object, and A is the croSs-sectional area.
