Answer the following questions regarding material condition modifiers.
(a) What are the three material condition modifiers?
(b) Which one is the default if nothing is specified?
(c) Which one(s) can provide “bonus” tolerance?
(d) Which of the following is increased by a bonus tolerance? (Select one.)
- i. A size dimension.
- ii. A ± tolerance of a size dimension.
- iii. A basic dimension locating a feature.
- iv. A size of a tolerance zone controlling a feature.
(e) To which of the following can a material condition modifier symbol be applied? (Select one.)
- i. A size dimension.
- ii. A ± tolerance of a size dimension.
- iii. A tolerance of a geometric characteristic controlling a feature of size.
- iv. A tolerance of a geometric characteristic controlling any feature.
(f) Which material condition modifier should be considered if the goal is to ensure a minimum clearance fit for a bolt in a hole, but to give greater manufacturing flexibility if the hole is produced with a greater clearance?
(g) Which material condition modifier should be considered if the goal is to provide a consistent press fit between interchangeable parts?
(h) Which material condition modifier should be considered if the goal is to ensure a minimum wall thickness for a casting, but to give greater manufacturing flexibility if the wall is produced with a greater thickness?

- 1. How is the location tolerance of Position different from the other 11 GD&T tolerances? Pick two (2) other tolerance and contrast write about those two in detail relative to Position tolerancing. 2. Form tolerances, elaborate how they are different from Orientation tolerancesarrow_forwardI tried 33.7oC and also 50.517oC but it still says it is incorrect (view attached screenshot). I appreciate your efforts, but unfortunately it says it is still wrong. Any more ideas of what the correct answer might be? I really want to understand how to solve this problem correctly.

(Enter Number ONLY) 1) Hooke's Law 2) Creep 3) Impact Strength 4) Proportional Limit 5) Fatigue 6) Elastic The tendency of a solid material to move slowly or deform permanently under the influence of mechanical stresses below the yield strength of the material. The behavior of materials that deform when loaded but return to their original shape after the load is removed. The linear relationship between stress and strain in the elastic region below the proportional limit. The phenomenon where cracks propagate under loads less than the yield stress due to cyclic loading. The material property determined using the Charpy or Izod test.
