Textbook Question
Chapter 19, Problem 19.1P
Of the metals listed in Table 19-1, which are the most and least conductive?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The most and least conductive metal from the table 19-1.
Answer to Problem 19.1P
The most conductive metal from table 19-1 A is silver and the least conductive metal is gallium.
Explanation of Solution
Conductivity is the properties of the material by which it can be determined how much an electric charge or heat is passing through the material. A conductor has very little amount of resistance. Materials can be classified into metals, non-metals, semiconductors and insulators. Among these metals are the most conductivity and insulators like (ceramics, woods and plastics) have very little conductivity.
From the given table 19-1 A the silver (Ag) has the highest value of conductivity and gallium (Ga) has the least value of conductivity. So, silver is most conductive and Gallium is the least conductive.
The most conductive metal from table 19-1 A is silver and the least conductive metal is gallium.

A gearbox has permanent shaft positions defined by the bearing mounting positions, but the gear ratio can be changed by changing the number of teeth in the pinion and gear. To achieve similar power transmission ability for different gear ratios, a manufacturer chooses to have the same module for two different gearboxes. One of the gaerboxes has a pinion with 22 teeth, a gear with 68 teeth, and a center distance of 225mm. How large is the gear module and which gear ratios are possible for a pinion with 22 or more teeth using the same module?
A gear train has a 50.3 mm circular pitch and a 25 degree pressure angle and meshes with a pinion having 12 teeth Design this gear train to minimize its volume and the total number of teeth. Obtain the pitch diameters the number of teeth the speed ratio the center distance and the module of this gear train. The gearbox housing has a diameter of 620mm
