Two 0.5 cm-diameter rods of 1020 steel (σts = 395 mpa) are to be joined with a silver braze alloy 0.025 cm thick (σys = 145 mpa) to produce one long rod. the ultimate strength of this brazed structure is found to be approximately 345 mpa. if it is necessary to reduce the diameter of the rods to 0.25 cm with no change to the braze joint itself, will the strength (in mpa units) increase, decrease, or remain the same? if it changes, by how much?

The y form of iron is known as: a) ferrite b) cementite c) perlite d) austenite

Afour cylinder four-stroke in-line engine has a stroke of 160mm, connecting rod length of 150mm, a reciprocating mass of 3kg and its firing order is 1-3-4-2. the spacing between cylinders is 100mm. i. show that the engine is in balance with regard to the primary inertia forces and primary 3. a and secondary inertia couples. li determine the out of balance secondary inertia force ii. propose ways of balancing this out of balance force and discuss the challenges that will arise
