Chapter 39, Problem 1SA

After draining gear oil from a transaxie, the technician notices that the oil has shiny, metallic particles in it. What does this indicate?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The condition it indicates if a shiny, metallic particle is draining oil from a transaxle.

Answer to Problem 1SA

It indicates the condition of excessive wear.

Explanation of Solution

Proper lubrication is required for longer transmission/transaxle life. The lubrication gear oil should be checked and replaced after required specified intervals of time. The condition of the draining oil gives a lot of indication about the parts and components of the transmission/transaxle. Thus, while draining the gear oil if it has some golden or shiny metallic particles in it, this indicates extensive internal wear or damage in the parts of a transaxle.

An aluminum rod of length L = 1m has mass density p = 2700 kg and Young's modulus E = 70 GPa. The rod is fixed at both ends. The exact natural eigenfrequencies of the rod are wexact E = √ ρ for n=1,2,3,. . . . 1. What is the minimum number of linear elements necessary to determine the fundamental frequency w₁ of the system? Discretize the rod in that many elements of equal length, assemble the global system of equations KU = w² MU, and find the fundamental frequency w₁. Compute the relative error e₁ = (w1 - wexact) /w exact Sketch the fundamental mode of vibration. 2. Use COMSOL to solve the same problem. Show the steps necessary to find the fundamental frequency and mode of the rod. What is the relative error using linear elements and a normal mesh?
A ball with a mass of 5.0 kg is hanging from a string and is initially at rest. A bullet with a mass of 10.0 g and a velocity of 200.0 m/s is fired at the ball. The bullet embeds itself inside the ball. How high (h) do the ball and the bullet rise? Gravitational acceleration: g=9.81g = 9.81g=9.81 m/s².
