Chapter 14, Problem 14.3P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The cost of the hypothetical alloy 5074-O in raw materials prices using given condition should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alloy is formed when two or more metallic material combines together to provide better strength to the material and resistance to corrosion.

Tensile strength is the amount of force that material can sustain without failure.

Density is defined as the ratio of mass per unit volume. The relationship is given as,

  $\text{ρ}\text{=}\frac{\text{m}}{\text{V}}$

Where,

  $\text{ρ}$ is the density in kg per cubic meter.

m is the mass in kg.

V is the volume in cubic meter.
