A strain gauge, having a gauge factor of 2, is mounted on a rectangular steel bar (E = 200. 10°KN/m”). The bar is 3 cm wide and 1 cm high and is subjected a tensile force of 30 kN. Determine the resistance change of
the strain gauge if the resistance of the gauge was 120 2 in the absence of the axial load.
Solution

Which of the following ziegler nichols tuning methods the response of the controller to a step input should exhibit an s-shaped curve? a)-open loop mode b)-closed loop mode c)-both modes (open & closed) d)-none of the modes (open & closed)

Air is compressed isentropically from an initial state of 300 k and 101 kpa to a final temperature of 1000 k. determine the final pressure using the following approaches: (a) approximate analysis (using properties at the average temperature) (b) exact analysis

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?
