Q1. A hypothetical metal has a density of 19.40 g/cm3, and an atomic weight of 183.95 g/mol.

Calculate the atomic radius of this metal IF the crystal structure of the metal is:
a. Simple Cubic (SC)
b. Body-centered Cubic (BCC)
c. Face-centered Cubic (FCC)

Q2. The wear resistance of a steel shaft is to be improved by hardening its surface by increasing the
nitrogen content within an outer surface layer as a result of nitrogen diffusion into the steel; the
nitrogen is to be supplied from an external nitrogen-rich gas at an elevated and constant
temperature. The initial nitrogen content of the steel is 0.005 wt%, whereas the surface
concentration is to be maintained at 0.5 wt%. For this treatment to be effective, a nitrogen content of
0.1 wt% must be established at a position 0.5 mm below the surface. The preexponential and
activation energy for the diffusion of nitrogen in iron are 5 × 10−7 𝑚2 ⁄𝑠 and 77,000 J/mol,
respectively. Specify an appropriate heat treatment in terms of temperature and time for a
temperature of
a. 575 °𝐶
b. 725 °𝐶

deformed in tension. Using the load–elongation data shown in the following table, complete parts (a)
through (f).
a. Plot the data as engineering stress versus engineering strain.
b. Compute the modulus of elasticity.
c. Determine the yield strength at a strain offset of 0.002.
d. Determine the tensile strength of this alloy.
e. Compute the modulus of resilience.
f. What is the ductility, in percent elongation?

Q4. A large tower is to be supported by a series of steel wires; it is estimated that the load on each
wire will be 26,600 N. Determine the minimum required wire diameter, assuming a factor of safety
of 1.5 and a yield strength of 1570 MPa for the steel.

Q5. Consider 15.0 kg of austenite containing 0.5 wt% C and cooled to just below 727 °C.
a. What is the proeutectoid phase?
b. How many kilograms each of total ferrite and cementite form?
c. How many kilograms each of pearlite and the proeutectoid phase form?
d. Schematically sketch and label the resulting microstructure.
