A balloon has a volume of 4.0 L when at sea level (1.0 atm) at room temperature 0f 28 . C What will be its volume when inflated with inflated with the same amount of gas at an elevation where the atmospheric pressure is 700 mm Hg at 28 . C

Critique Bombardier’s choice of Al-alloy 2198-T8 for the fuselage of the A220/Cseries. In your answer you must: • explain the main design drivers for fuselage skin material selection, • state which of the alloys in Table Q1 would previously have been selected for this component and • suggest why Bombardier choose 2198-T8.

Calculate the dimension of unit cell of body-centered cubic(bcc) lattice and face-centered cubic(fcc) lattice. In the both cases consider the atomic mass/weight of the atom is 272.

Aluminium is used in food containers for different reasons: it provides a very good barrier to

protect food against light and air and preserves food quality; it is corrosion resistance; it can be

recycled and designed individually according to customers’ requirements; it can be produced

in different sizes and shapes due to its atomic bonding and its FCC crystalline structure.

However, in order to produce aluminium cans, manufacturers must strip-mine bauxite ore to

gain alumina. This method leaves behind liquid waste that can pollute soil and groundwater.

1. Suggest one other type of other crystalline solid (it can be polymer, ceramics, or other

metal), can replace aluminium as food packaging but with less impact on our soil and

groundwater. Justify your answer (cost of the material is not a factor)

2.suggestion,explain the mechanical properties of the material and relate

these properties to the atomic bonding and the crystalline structure of the material.

Compare these properties to aluminium.

A well-designed drill bit minimizes the risk of burning your fingers when you remove the bit from the drill. To achieve that goal, an important design objective is to minimize the heat flow along its length while simultaneously making sure the drill bit doesn’t mechanically fail during operation. Assume the maximum temperature generated at the drill bit tip is attained quickly and remains constant so that the temperature gradient, Δ𝑇, along the shaft is constant with time. The length, L, of the shaft is fixed but its radius, R, is variable.

a.Derive the material index for this application. Assume the heat, q, flow is:

𝑞=(𝜆Δ𝑇𝜋𝑅^2)/𝐿 where 𝜆 is the thermal conductivity,and the failure torque is:𝑇f=(𝜋𝑅^3𝜎y)/4 Start the problem by listing the objective, constraints and free variables
