(b) A capacitor is made of three layers A-B-A insulators in parallel. It is known that the capacitor is a round shape with diameter of 50 mm. An electric field E= 9.3 x 10^
V/m is applied to store charge of 25 x 10" C on each plate. By knowing that the
material A has the dielectric constant of 2.3 and the layers distance of A is 4.3 mm
and B is 2.8 mm, determine the dielectric constant of B.

Aturning operation is performed with following conditions: rake angle of 12°, a feed of 0.35 mm/rev, and a depth of cut of 1.1 mm. the work piece is aluminum alloy 6061 with t6 heat treatment (a16061-t6). the resultant chip thickness was measured to be 1.0 mm. estimate the cutting force, fc. use shear stress of 207 mpa and coefficient of friction on the tool face of 0.6.

Abarometer contains mercury with a density of 13600 kg/m3. atmospheric conditions are 95.8 kpa and 20 °c at 20 °c, the vapor pressure of the mercury is 0.000173 kpa. the column of mercury will rise to a height of most nearly. select one: a)- 0.38 m b)- 0.82 m c)- 0.48 m d)- 0.72 m

Tom is having a problem with his washing machine. he notices that the machine vibrates violently at a frequency of 1500 rpm due to an unknown rotating unbalance. the machine is mounted on 4 springs each having a stiffness of 10 kn/m. tom wishes to add an undamped vibration absorber attached by a spring under the machine the machine working frequency ranges between 800 rpm to 2000 rpm and its total mass while loaded is assumed to be 80 kg a) what should be the mass of the absorber added to the machine so that the natural frequency falls outside the working range? b) after a first trial of an absorber using a mass of 35 kg, the amplitude of the oscillation was found to be 10 cm. what is the value of the rotating unbalance? c) using me-3.5 kg.m, find the optimal absorber (by minimizing its mass). what would be the amplitude of the oscillation of the absorber?
