Alloys of aluminium find use in aircraft industry because of its: B) low specific gravity.

<h3>What is an alloy?</h3>

An alloy simply refers to a homogenous mixture (substance) that is produced by melting or joining two or more chemical elements together, with at least one of the elements being a metal.  

Generally, some examples of the components of alloys include the following:

  • Carbon
  • Zinc
  • Silver
  • Tin
  • Aluminum

In the aircraft industry, alloys of aluminum typically find use because of its low specific gravity.

A rope is wrapped three and a half times around a cylinder. Determine the range of force T exerted on
Mademuasel [1]

The range of force exerted at the end of the rope is; 285.7 N to 1,000 N.

<h3>What is the Net horizontal force?</h3>

The net horizontal force of the cylinder when it is at equilibrium position can be found by applying Newton's second law of motion. Thus;

∑F = 0

F - μF_n = 0

We are given;

F_n = 5 kN = 5000 N

μ = 0.2

Thus;

F - 0.2(5,000) = 0

F - 1,000 = 0

F = 1,000 N

The strength of the applied force will be increasing as the number of turns of the rope increases. Thus;

Minimum force = Total force/number of turns of rope

Since rope is wrapped three and half times, then;

number of turns = 3.5

Thus;

minimum force = 1,000/3.5

minimum force = 285.7 N

Thus, the range of force exerted at the end of the rope is 285.7 N to 1,000 N.

A soil sample has a moist unit weight of 117 pcf, a moisture content of 17 percent, and soil particles with a specific gravity o
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(A) Dry unit weight. = 15.71 kN/m³ =100.91 pcf

(B) Porosity = 40.82 %

(C) Degree of saturation = 66.52 %

(D) Weight of water, in pounds per cubic foot, to be added to reach full saturation = 81.22 pcf

Explanation:

(A) γd =\frac{\gamma }{1+w} = \frac{18.379}{1+.17} = 15.71 KN/m³

(B) \gamma _d =\frac{G_{s}* \gamma _w }{1+e} therefore  1+e = \frac{G_{s}* \gamma _w }{\gamma _d } \frac{2.7*9.81}{15.71} = 1.69

Therefore e = 0.69 and

Porososity n = \frac{e}{1+e} =\frac{0.69}{1+0.69} × 100% = 40.82 %

(C)  S_{e}  = w*G_{s} therefore S =\frac{w*G_{s}}{e} = \frac{0.17*9.81}{0.69}×100 = 66.52 %

(D) \gamma _{sat} =\frac{(G_{s}+e) \gamma_{w}  }{1+e} = \frac{(2.7+0.69)9.81}{1+0.69} = 19.68 kN/m³

The required amount of water is found from γ =ρ×g

ρ mass of water = \frac{\gamma}{g}  = \frac{(19.68-18.38)\frac{kN}{m^{3} } }{9.81 kg\frac{m}{s^{2} } } *\frac{1000 N}{kN} *\frac{9.81 kg\frac{m}{s^{2} } }{N} = 1301 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }

1 kg/m³ = 0.062 pcf therefore 1301 kg/m³ = 1301 ×0.062 pcf or 81.22 pcf

If the resistance in a series circuit is 12 K Ohms, and the amperage is 0. 0063 amps, what is the voltage?
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The resistance “seen” by the 12-Volt battery is 500 ohms . The total resistance is the sum of the resistors R1 and R2. Each resistor will drop a calculable amount of voltage. This voltage is given by Ohm's Law.
