Load Maximum Safety

AI Thread Summary

The ultimate strength of the round steel rod is 620.000 MPa, and with a required safety factor of 3.000, the maximum permissible load can be calculated by dividing the ultimate strength by the safety factor. The diameter of the rod is 3.000 cm, which allows for the calculation of the cross-sectional area using the formula for the area of a circle. The maximum load is then determined by multiplying the allowable stress by the cross-sectional area. The user initially sought help but later indicated they solved the problem independently. This illustrates the importance of understanding safety factors in engineering applications.

Could i get some help with this one please

The ultimate strength of a round steel rod is 620.000 MPa. If a factor of safety of 3.000 is required, what is the maximum permissible load for the rod if it has a diameter of 3.000 cm?

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Power of a thin lens in a medium is 1/fₘ or μₘ/fₘ ?'

Here is what I tried This question was actually asked in one of our engineering entrances. The answer was 1D. My teachers say that we have to use μₘ/fₘ to get to this answer. I cannot understand why. I'll be really glad if you could tell me the exact definition of power (numerically) that works in all scenarios.

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
