A capillary tube viscometer similar to that shown in Fig. 2.7 is being used to measure the viscosity of an oil having a specific gravity of 0.90. The following data apply:
Tube inside diameter = 2.5 mm = D
Length between manometer taps = 300 mm = L Manometer fluid = mercury
Manometer deflection = 177 mm = h
Velocity of flow = 1.58 m/s = v Determine the viscosity of the oil.

- You design a pin joint. The pin is made of a material with the yield strength of 325 MPa and ultimate strength of 500 MPa. The maximum allowed stress in service is expressed as a tensor 0 100 0 σ 100 0 0 MPa 0 0 Evaluate the safety factor SF for stress in this design. Write answer unitless rounding to 2 decimal places and enter decimals even if those are zeros.arrow_forward2. A single crystal of aluminum is oriented for a tensile test such that its slip plane normal makes an angle of 28.1° with the tensile axis. Three possible slip directions make angles of 62.4°, 72.0°, and 81.1° with the same tensile axis. (a) Which of these three slip directions is most favored? (b) If plastic deformation begins at a tensile stress of σ x = 1.95 MPa (280 psi), determine the critical resolved shear stress for aluminium. (c) If this single crystalspecimen is loaded under the new stress state: σ x =1.2 MPa σ y = -0.8 MPa, and τ xy = 0.6 MPa, howmuch is the resolve the shear stress along the most favored slip direction?arrow_forwardPlease explain how to do each part and tell me if my drawing is correct. thank youarrow_forward
