composition that can make i) steels and ii) cast irons.
(c)(4 pts) At 1200^(@)C and 0.76wt.%C, specify the number of degrees of freedom (i.e.,
number of external variables)? What does this number mean?
(d)(6 pts ) Consider a 1090 steel, solution treated at 1100^(@)C and cooled to room
temperature. What are the phases present in this alloy, and relative amount of each
phase present in terms of mass fraction? Schematically sketch and label the resulting
microstructure of this alloy at room temperature.
