The cause of the Challenger disaster was that the seals had not been tested at extremely low temperatures, so some of the seals failed. This is a problem with the step/perform tests on the prototype/testing in the engineering design process.

The force on a cutting tool are 2600n vertically downward and 2100 horizontal. determine the resultant force acting on the tool and the angle at which it acts.

The mass flow rate of the fluid remains constant in all steady flow process. a)- true b)- false

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
