It is uncommon for electrocution to cause crane incidents: False.

<h3>What is electrocution?</h3>

Electrocution can be defined as a process through which a certain amount of electric current (electricity) passes through the body of a living organism, thereby, leading to death or severe injury.

According to the occupational safety and health administration (OSHA), it is very common for electrocution to cause crane incidents and accidents when adequate safety precautions are not adopted.

Ceramics has the weakness of resisting high compression force but low tensile force. a)-True b)-False

Nesterboy [21]

Answer: b) False

Explanation:Ceramic is brittle in nature therefore it has a tendency that it is strong during the compression and it tends to be weak during the high tensile forces. While the tensile forces are applied , ceramics are not able to yield the stress and cause breakage of the material due to high tension but does not face any fault during the compression.

Three identical fatigue specimens (denoted A, B, and C) are fabricated from a nonferrous alloy. Each is subjected to one of the

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

B A and C

Explanation:

Given:

Specimen σ $_{max}$ σ $_{min}$

A +450 -150

B +300 -300

C +500 -200

Solution:

Compute the mean stress

σ $_{m}$ = (σ $_{max}$ + σ $_{min}$ )/2

σ $_{mA}$ = (450 + (-150)) / 2

= (450 - 150) / 2

= 300/2

σ $_{mA}$ = 150 MPa

σ $_{mB}$ = (300 + (-300))/2

= (300 - 300) / 2

= 0/2

σ $_{mB}$ = 0 MPa

σ $_{mC}$ = (500 + (-200))/2

= (500 - 200) / 2

= 300/2

σ $_{mC}$ = 150 MPa

Compute stress amplitude:

σ $_{a}$ = (σ $_{max}$ - σ $_{min}$ )/2

σ $_{aA}$ = (450 - (-150)) / 2

= (450 + 150) / 2

= 600/2

σ $_{aA}$ = 300 MPa

σ $_{aB}$ = (300- (-300)) / 2

= (300 + 300) / 2

= 600/2

σ $_{aB}$ = 300 MPa

σ $_{aC}$ = (500 - (-200))/2

= (500 + 200) / 2

= 700 / 2

σ $_{aC}$ = 350 MPa

From the above results it is concluded that the longest fatigue lifetime is of specimen B because it has the minimum mean stress.

Next, the specimen A has the fatigue lifetime which is shorter than B but longer than specimen C.

In the last comes specimen C which has the shortest fatigue lifetime because it has the higher mean stress and highest stress amplitude.

IgorC [24]

The largest, low-cost airline carrier in the world that recently canceled thousands of flights for reasons partially disputed by the federal aviation administration (FAA) is Southwest Airlines.

Southwest Airlines canceled 2,500 flights in just a few days.

According to Southwest Airlines, the cause of the cancellation is due to air traffic control problems and disruptive weather.

While FAA claimed that nothing like a reported case of air traffic and staffing shortages.

Southwest Airlines is the world's largest low-cost carrier and has its main office is located in Dallas, Texas.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is "Southwest Airlines."
