The column has a mass of 600 lb/ft and a force of 50 kips applied at the top. the diagonal brace has a 10 kip axial force that can be either tension or compression (note that in seismic and wind loading on buildings, braces experience both tension and compression). assume all elements are pin-connected at their ends, including the two supports. find the magnitude of maximum and minimum compression force in the column at point a.

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

Ajournal bearing has a journal diameter of 3.250 in with a unilateral tolerance of 20.003 in. the bushing bore has a diameter of 3.256 in and a unilateral tolerance of 0.004 in. the bushing is 2.8 in long and supports a 700-lbf load. the journal speed is 900 rev/min. find the minimum oil film thickness and the maximum film pressure for both sae 20 and sae 20w-30 lubricants, for the tightest assembly if the operating film temperature is 160°f. a computer code is appropriate for solving this problem.
