You have a solid square copper ground support, 2 inch per side X 6 inches tall, and it is loaded axially (long axis)with 1600 pounds (force). You have instrumented one rectangular flat of the support with 2 strain gages (half bridge construction). The strain gages are made from modified Karma - Alloy K, that has a nominal resistance R0 = 350Ω, and that has a gage factor GF = 2.107.

a. Look up the Modulus and Poisson’s Ratio of Copper.
b. What would be the change in resistance of a longitudinal strain gage, and a transverse strain gage, under these conditions?
c. If the bridge excitation is VEXC = 10 volts, what are the ∆V outputs of the Wheatstone bridge, for 2 εL, 2 εT , and 1 εT & 1 εL
d. If you change to a Full Bridge design (four strain gages), what is the ∆V output of the bridge circuit?
e. Locate the strain gages in a Wheatstone Bridge schematic to give a - ∆V (minus delta V) output for compression!

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
