    (a) 210 MPa (b) 377.97 KN (c) 7363.108 mm³

    Explanation:

    Solution

    Given that

    Diameter (d) = 25 mm

    Height = 15 mm

    Tensile Strength = 175 MPa

    (a) We find the compacting pressure which is given below:

    (Pe) = 2Sth/d

    Here

    St = 175 MPa

    h = 15 mm

    d = 25 mm

    Pe = 2 * 175 * 15/25

    =210 MPa

    Pe = 210 MPa

    (b) We calculate for the press force (Fp) shown below:

    Fp = A * St

    A = 2πr (r+h)

    = 2π * 12.5 (12.5 + 5)

    A = 2159.84 mm²

    So,

    Fp = 2159.84 * 175

    Fp = 377.97 KN

    (c) We calculate for the initial volume of powder required which is given as:

    Vp = πr² h

    =π (12.5) ² * 15 mm³

    Vp = 7363.108 mm³
