Question

  1. mechanical engineering the following calculation must be performed to find the stress (in pounds per square inch) on a plunger. find this stress to the nearest thousand psi. \\(\frac{3000\sqrt{34}}{0.196}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the square root of 34

First, we find the value of $\sqrt{34}$. We know that $\sqrt{34}\approx5.83095$.

Step2: Multiply by 3000

Next, we multiply this value by 3000. So, $3000\times5.83095 = 17492.85$.

Step3: Divide by 0.196

Then, we divide the result by 0.196. So, $\frac{17492.85}{0.196}\approx89249.23$.

Step4: Round to the nearest thousand

Finally, we round 89249.23 to the nearest thousand. The thousands digit is 9, the hundreds digit is 2, which is less than 5, so we round down. So, 89249.23 rounded to the nearest thousand is 89000.

Answer:

89000
