Problem solving is the act of orderly searching for solutions to problem

The correct option that involves approaching a problem in a new way is the option;

Creative thinking

The reasons why creative thinking is the correct option is given as follows;

Finding new ways to approach a problem, involves considering alternatives to already known approaches to the problem

Given that the options to be considered are to be options which have not been applied, then the process does not involve;

Context: Which looks at the variables that relate the problem with setting or circumstance that aid understanding of the problem

Critical thinking; Which is based on the analysis of the known facts, but the new proposals are required

Perseverance; Which involves adherence to a particular option despite delay or difficulty

However;

Creative thinking; Creative thinking involves the consideration of a situation thing or problem in a new way or by approaching a task differently than what was considered a regular approach, which involves finding an unused or imaginative approach to a problem

Therefore;

The option that involves finding new ways to approach a problem is creative thinking

A bus travels the 100 miles between A and B at 50 mi/h and then another 100 miles between B and C at 70 mi/h.

stira [4]

Answer:

c. less than 60 mi/h

Explanation:

To calculate the average speed of the bus, we need to calculate the total distance traveled by the bus, as well as the total time of travel of the bus.

Total Distance Traveled = S = 100 mi + 100 mi

S = 200 mi

Now, for total time, we calculate the times for both speeds from A to b and then B to C, separately and add them.

Total Time = t = Time from A to B + Time from B to C

t = (100 mi)/(50 mi/h) + (100 mi)(70 mi/h)

t = 2 h + 1.43 h

t = 3.43 h

Now, the average speed of bus will be given as:

Average Speed = V = S/t

V = 200 mi/3.43 h

V = 58.33 mi/h

It is clear from this answer that the correct option is:

c. less than 60 mi/h

A 15-ft beam weighing 570 lb is lowered by means of two cables unwinding from overhead cranes. As the beam approaches the ground

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

I. Tension (cable A) ≈ 6939 lbf

II. Tension (cable B) ≈ 17199 lbf

Explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the data that we were given:

mass of beam (m) = 570 lb, deceleration (cable A) = -20 ft/s², deceleration (cable B) = -2 ft/s²,

g = 32.17405 ft/s²

The tension on an object is given by the product of mass of the object by gravitational force plus/minus the product of mass by acceleration.

Mathematically represented thus:

T = mg + ma

where:

T = tension, m = mass, g = gravitational force,

a = acceleration

I. For Cable A, we have:

T = mg + ma = (570 * 32.17405) + [570 * (-20)]

T = 18339.2085 - 11400 = 6939.2085

T ≈ 6939 lbf

II. For Cable B, we have:

T = mg + ma = (570 * 32.17405) + [570 * (-2)]

T = 18339.2085 - 1140 = 17199.2085

T ≈ 17199 lbf

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation, the parameter n is known to have a value of 2. If, after

kotegsom [21]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation, the parameter n is known to have a value of 2. If, after 100 s, the reaction is 40% complete, how long (total time in seconds) will it take the transformation to go to 95% completion

y = 1 - exp( -ktⁿ )

Answer: the time required for 95% transformation is 242.17 s

Explanation:

First, we calculate the value of k which is the dependent variable in Avrami equation

y = 1 - exp( -ktⁿ )

exp( -ktⁿ ) = 1 - y

-ktⁿ = In( 1 - y )

k = - In( 1 - y ) / tⁿ

now given that; n = 2, y = 40% = 0.40, and t = 100 s

we substitute

k = - In( 1 - 0.40 ) / 100²

k = - In(0.60) / 10000

k = 0.5108 / 10000

k = 0.00005108 ≈ 5.108 × 10⁻⁵

Now calculate the time required for 95% transformation

tⁿ = - In( 1 - y ) / k

t = [- In( 1 - y ) / k ]^1/n

n = 2, y = 95% = 0.95 and k = 5.108 × 10⁻⁵

we substitute our values

t = [- In( 1 - 0.95 ) / 5.108 × 10⁻⁵ ]^1/2

t = [2.9957 / 5.108 × 10⁻⁵]^1/2

t = [ 58647.22 ]^1/2

t = 242.17 s

Therefore the time required for 95% transformation is 242.17 s

Determine how much concrete you will need for a slab which is 50 feet by 30 feet wide and 1 foot thick

Levart [38]

Answer:

Amount of concrete need to make slab = 1,500 feet³

Explanation:

Given:

Length of slab = 50 feet

Width of slab = 30 feet

Height of slab = 1 feet

Find:

Amount of concrete need to make slab

Computation;

Amount of concrete need to make slab = Volume of cuboid

Volume of cuboid = (l)(b)(h)

Amount of concrete need to make slab = (50)(30)(1)

Amount of concrete need to make slab = 1,500 feet³
