- a 300n girl and an 400n boy stand on a 16m platform supported by posts A and B. The platform itself weighs 200N. What are the forces exerted by the supports on the platform?arrow_forwardC A cylindrical piece of steel 38 mm (1½ in.) in diameter is to be quenched in moderately agi- tated oil. Surface and center hardnesses must be at least 50 and 40 HRC, respectively. Which of the following alloys satisfy these requirements: 1040, 5140, 4340, 4140, and 8640? Justify your choice(s).arrow_forwardUsing the isothermal transformation diagram for a 1.13 wt% C steel alloy (Figure 10.39), determine the final microstructure (in terms of just the microconstituents present) of a small specimen that has been subjected to the following time-temperature treatments. In each case assume that the specimen begins at 920°C (1690°F) and that it has been held at this temperature long enough to have achieved a complete and homogeneous austenitic structure. (a) Rapidly cool to 250°C (480°F), hold for 103 s, then quench to room temperature. (b) Rapidly cool to 775°C (1430°F), hold for 500 s, then quench to room temperature. (c) Rapidly cool to 400°C (750°F), hold for 500 s, then quench to room temperature. (d) Rapidly cool to 700°C (1290°F), hold at this temperature for 105 s, then quench to room temperature.
