2 strain gauges with a nominal resistance of 120 ohms (each)and a gauge factor of 2.10 are used in a half bridge (resistances R1 and R3 in fig. 8.5 in the text), with other unstrained resistors being 120 ohms. Supply voltage is 5 V. Calculate the micro strain if the output voltage is 20 mV.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.

The drive force for diffusion is 7 fick's first law can be used to solve the non-steady state diffusion. a)-true b)-false

Shafts are machine elements that are used to a) carry axial loads b) direct shear loads c) transmit power d) rotate at constant speed e) none of the above circular and square shafts subjected to the same torque under the same circum behave a) the same way b) almost the same way
