A horse had an accident and lost one of his legs, you trying to design a leg for that poor horse, you only having access to basic materials, you choose a polycrystalline steel that has a yield strength of 130 MPa, an ultimate compressive strength of 305 MPa, and an elastic modulus of 1 GPa. (M = 106, G=109 and a Pascal = N/m2) a. Consider the horse exerts a force of 1750 Newtons when standing pre-accident. What is the minimum cross sectional area of the prosthetic to prevent plastic deformation while the horse is standing b. Given an original length of 27 cm, what length will the prosthetic be under this force?

A windmill turns a series of slender rods fixed about one end (see formula below). They are initially 2 meters long, and go at a speed of 15 rpm. I suggested making the blades 1m long to reduce the cross-sectional area of the windmill, keeping the mass the same for mechanical stress consistency. How fast are the windmill blades going now, in revolutions per minute?

Find the total toughness energy for a metal that experiences both elastic and plastic deformations. The modulus of elasticity is 107.2 GPa, and elastic deformation terminates at a strain of 0.009. For plastic deformation, assume that the relationship between stress and strain is described by T = 1.66xKn, in which the values for K and n are 1453 MPa and 0.175, respectively. Furthermore, plastic deformation occurs between strain values of 0.009 and 0.67, at which point fracture occurs

A current problem in the U.S. Air Force is the neck/shoulder fatigue experienced by pilots. To be able to fly missions at night, the pilots wear night vision goggles, which are attached to the front of the helmet. Unfortunately, these are heavy, causing a large downward torque of the head, which must be counteracted by the neck muscles, which then fatigue. To alleviate this problem, many pilots have started attaching random lead weights to the back of the helmet. Find the appropriate weight that would best balance the head and minimize neck fatigue – You must show your free body diagram. Assumptions: a) center of gravity of goggles is 20 cm in front of neck pivot point, b) load of goggles1.0 kg mass, c) center of gravity of lead weight is 10 cm behind neck pivot point, d) load of bare helmet 3 kg mass, e) center of gravity of helmet is 2 cm in front of neck pivot, f) load of head 4.0 kg mass, and g) center of gravity of head is right at neck pivot point.
