Test: Structural of Metals & Alloys - 3 - Question 1

When atoms are displaced in two separate planes perpendicular to each other, the defect so produced is known as

Detailed Solution: Question 1

  • When atoms are displaced in two perpendicular planes, this creates a complex distortion in the crystal structure.
  • This type of defect is classified as a stacking fault, which occurs when the regular order of atomic layers is disrupted.
  • Stacking faults can lead to changes in the material's properties, such as strength and ductility.
  • Edge dislocations and screw dislocations involve different types of atomic displacements, while Schottky defects relate to vacancies.

Which of the following best defines planar density in crystallography?

Detailed Solution: Question 20

Answer:
b) Number of atoms centered on a specific crystallographic plane divided by the area of that plane

Solution:

  • Planar density refers to how many atoms are effectively present per unit area on a particular plane of a crystal.

  • It is calculated as:
    Planar Density = (Number of atoms centered on the plane) / (Area of the plane)

  • It helps to analyze slip systems, deformation, and mechanical properties in materials.
