An elastomeric bearing pad is subjected to a shear force V during a static loading test. The pad has dimensions a 5 150 mm and b 5 225 mm, and thickness t 5 55 mm. The lateral displacement of the top plate with respect to the bottom plate is 14 mm under a load P 5 16 kN. The shear modulus of elasticity G of the elastomer is approximately:
(A) 1.0 MPa
(B) 1.5 MPa
(C) 1.7 MPa
(D) 1.9 MPa
According to kinetic theory, a typical gas molecule in thermal equilibrium at room temperature has a kinetic energy K = 6.00 × 10?21 J, regardless of mass. Estimate the speed at room temperature of a hydrogen molecule H2 (m = 3.34 × 10?27 kg) and a xenon atom (m = 2.00 × 10?25 kg). [kB = 1.38 × 10?23 J/K]
