A 6-in diameter concrete test cylinder is subjected to a compressive
load P = 110 kips. The cylinder fails along a plane that makes an angle
of 62° to the horizontal. Determine the normal stress and shear stress on
the failure plane.

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

An air conditioning system consist of a 5 cm diameter pipe, operating at a pressure of 200 kpa. the air initially enters the pipe at 15°c with a velocity of 20 m/s and relative humidity of 80%. if the heat supply throughout the process is 960 w, determine the relative humidity and the temperature at the outlet
