BASICS OF STRENGTH OF MATERIAL

THIS ARE THE SOME IMPORTANT DEFINITION AND KEY POINT OF STRENGTH OF MATERIAL

 

Stress - The stress applied to the material is the force per unit area applied to the material 

{ the maximum stress a material can be stand before it breaks is called the breaking stress or ultimate tensile stress }

Formula for the stress is 

                                STRESS = FORCE/ AREA = F/A ( NM^-2 or PASCAL )

F = Force in newton (N)

A= Cross-sectional area in M^2

 

 

Strain - The ratio of extension to original length is called Strain it has no unit cause it is just a ratio of two length's measured meter's . 

STRAIN = Extension/length 

strain =  ΔL/L 

ΔL = Extension measured in meter 

L = Original length measured in meter

Stress - strain graph for ductile metal (like copper)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OA - Proportional limit Hook's law is applicable till A point

A - Elastic limit 

B - Yield stress point/ upper yield stress point 

C - Lower yield stress point

D - Ultimate stress point

E - Breaking  point breaking stress .

WHAT IS LIGHT EMMITING DIODE ?

LED is a very commonly used device nowadays we use it in various application because of its small size and,cheap prize its very popular among peoples . we use it even in special television set for screen as LED pixels which is useful for clarity for distance audience . basically it is a diode which is set to be in forward condition .   Full form of LED is LIGHT EMITTING DIODE . As evident from name it is diode who produce photon when voltage is given to it . this type of diode is not made by generally used semiconductor's like silicon and germanium it manufactured by arsenic phosphorus and gallium . various types of color can can be produced by changing quantities of material it made up of .  WORKING - Basically it is like a normal diode just difference with it produces light when a forward voltage applied to it . as we know  electron needs energy to jump from lower orbit to higher orbit ,  the working of LED is typically reverse of this process electr...

BEGINNING OF THERMODYNAMICS ?

Thermodynamics is the the science of energy . in which we study about how energy could  be converted into  primary interest with high efficiency . although The first commercially-successful engine that could supply continuous power to a machine, was the atmospheric engine , invented around 1712 , but there was not proper scientific explanation which can describe how system is running and at what condition's it could get more efficiency . First scientific formulation of thermodynamic was made by a french military Engineer Sadi Carnot often described as Father of Thermodynamic . He published his work in a book  - Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire and on Machines Fitted to Develop that Power .  He was the first person talked about how steam engine's or system efficiency could be increased by increasing the temperature difference between source body and sink body .  source body - Is the body from which system takes heat as input to convert it into p...
