A stainless steel tube with an outside diameter of 60 mm and a wall thickness of 7 mm is used as a compression member. If the axial normal stress in the member must be limited to 190 MPa, determine the maximum load P that the member can support.

If the thermal strain developed in polyimide film during deposition is given as 0.0044. assume room temperature is kept at 17.3 c, and thermal coefficient of expansion for the film and the substrate are 54 x 10^-6c^-1 and 3.3 x 10^-6c^-1respectively. calculate the deposition temperature.

Asimple rankine cycle uses water as the working fluid. the water enters the turbine at 10 mpa and 480c while the condenser operates at 6 kpa. if the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 80 percent while the pump has an isentropic efficiency of 70 percent determine the thermal efficiency

In general, how do thermosetting plastics compare to thermoplastics in mechanical and physical properties?
