- 7You are designing props for a "western" movie. In the bar fight scene, one of the actresses must break a beer bottle over the head of an actor. Which of the material property(ies) for the bottle listed below is most important to get the scene correct without hurting the actor? A. The bottle material should have low hardness. B. The bottle material should have low toughness. C. The bottle material should have low yield strength. D. The bottle material should have low stiffness.B.

- 8You have been hired by a national defense agency to help design the sonar system for a new submarine. Your first project is to select a material to be used for a sonar detector which will be installed on an external wall of the submarine. The acoustic impedance of water is about 1.5 MPa-s/m. Which of the materials listed below would you select for the submarine's sonar detection panel and why? Acoustic Impedances: Material A: 0.5 MPa-s/m Material B: 1.8 MPa-s/m Material C: 3.5 MPa-s/m Material D: 4.5 MPa-s/m -Material D because it has the largest acoustic impedance mismatch with water and will transmit the most sound. -Material B because it has the smallest acoustic impedance mismatch with water and will reflect the most sound. -Material B because it has the smallest acoustic impedance mismatch with water and will transmit the most sound. -Material A because it has the largest acoustic impedance mismatch with water and will transmit the most sound. -Material A because it has the lowest acoustic impedance, which will maximize its acoustic transmission. -Material C becausMaterial B because it has the smallest acoustic impedance mismatch with water and will transmit the most sound.

D. ...describes the amount of reversible mechanical energy storage per volume possible in a given material.C. ...is the proportionality constant in Hooke's Law.
- 13When an object is intended to be deployed deep into the ocean's depths, which of the following materials constants would you use to help determine the amount of elastic compression it will experience? Shear Modulus Yield Strength Young's Modulus Impression Modulus Bulk Modulus ToughnessBulk Modulus
- 14Material A has a greater yield strength than Material B. Material B is stiffer than Material A. Material A and Material B have about the same elastic modulus. Materials A and Material B have about the same yield strength.Materials A and Material B have about the same yield strength.

- 15—The Modulus of Resilience

- 16—Toughness of Material

- 17—C

- 18—Materials B & C have about the same strain at break.

- 19—Foam B because it has the highest elastic modulus.
