“Let us consider this iconic scene where our beloved Captain America proves himself worthy enough to lift Thor ‘s hammer (the Mjolnir). He is fighting Thanos at one end and giving his best to save the world. Adopt the following scenarios: |10 marks)”
The question then asks the students to “Find out the stress when [this] load is applied to throw the hammer. What is the stress at the handle of the hammer which has a diameter of 5/8 in.”
The question continues: Once the hammer hits Thanos, the hammer head remains in the elastic zone while the hammer moves to the plastic zone. Find out the strains for the hammer bead and the handle. What is the total elongation of the hammer (combination of the hammer head and the handle
When the hammer is then called back by the Cap (after hitting Thanos), segment AB will be restored elastically but BC wall follow the path line FG (Fig Te), Find the recovering strain and the remaining plastic strain
What is the permanent elongation of the bar (ie elongation of the bar after the load is removed) after this fight sequence.
