B) Draw the Stress-Strain diagram for tensile test in mild steel 4 1 L2

A- Limit of proportionality; It is the

 SET A

point
where the linear nature of the stress-strain graph ceases
□ B -Elastic limit; It is the limiting point for the condition that material behaves
elastically, but Hooke’s law does not apply. For most practical purposes it can be
often assumed that limit of proportionality and elastic limits are the same
□ Beyond the elastic limits, there will be some permanent deformation or
permanent set when the load is removed
□ C (Upper Yield point), D (Lower yield point)à Points after which strain
increases without a correspondingly high increase in load or stress
□ E- Ultimate or maximum tensile stress; Point where the necking starts
F- Fracture point

lateral dimension of the bar is found to be changed to 7.9985 mm x 7.9985 mm. If
the modulus of rigidity of the material is 0.8 x 105 N/mm2, determine the Poisson’s
ratio and Modulus of Elasticity.

(ii) Simplify any 4 types of mechanical properties of materials 4 1 L1

Strength:
Definition: Strength refers to the ability of a material to withstand an applied
force without failure.
Types:
Tensile Strength: The maximum stress a material can withstand while being
stretched or pulled before breaking.
Compressive Strength: The maximum stress a material can withstand while
being squeezed or compressed before failing.
Shear Strength: The maximum stress a material can withstand before rupturing
when subjected to shear forces.
Importance: Strength is vital in determining whether a material is suitable for a
specific application, ensuring structural integrity and safety.
Hardness:
 SET A
Definition: Hardness is the resistance of a material to indentation or scratching.
Types:
Mohs Hardness: A scale based on the ability of one material to scratch another,
ranging from 1 (softest) to 10 (hardest).
Brinell Hardness: The resistance of a material to indentation, measured by
applying a known force with a spherical indenter and measuring the resulting
impression's diameter.
Rockwell Hardness: Measures the depth of penetration of an indenter into the
material under a specific load.
Importance: Hardness is crucial for assessing a material's wear resistance and
its ability to withstand abrasive forces.
Elasticity:

Definition: Elasticity refers to a material's ability to deform under stress and

return to its original shape when the stress is removed.
Types:
Young's Modulus (Modulus of Elasticity): Measures the stiffness of a material
and its ability to deform elastically under tension or compression.
Shear Modulus (Modulus of Rigidity): Measures a material's resistance to
shearing deformation.
Bulk Modulus: Measures a material's resistance to uniform compression.
Importance: Elasticity determines how a material responds to loading and
influences its ability to absorb energy without permanent deformation.
Ductility and Toughness:

Definition: Ductility is the ability of a material to deform plastically under tensile

stress before fracture. Toughness is the ability of a material to absorb energy
and deform plastically before fracturing.
Importance: Ductility is essential for forming processes, allowing materials to be
shaped into desired forms. Toughness is critical for applications where impact
resistance is important, preventing sudden brittle fracture.
Examples: Steel is often both ductile and tough, making it suitable for a wide
range of structural applications.

8 B) A U-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure of water in a pipeline, Which 12 1 L4
is in excess of the atmospheric pressure. The right limb of the manometer contains
mercury and is open to the atmosphere. The contact between water and mercury is
in the left limb. Determine the pressure of water in the main line, if the difference
in the level of mercury in the limbs of the U-tube is 10 cm and the free surface of
mercury is in the level with the centre of the pipe. If the pressure of water in the
pipeline is reduced to 9810 N/m2, calculate the new difference in the level of
mercury. Sketch the arrangements in both cases.
