Answer:
44.95 tonnes
Explanation:
According to principle of buoyancy the object will just sink when it's weight is more than the weight of the liquid it displaces
It is given that empty weight of box = 40 tons
Let the mass of the stones to be placed be = M tonnes
Thus the combined mass of box and stones = (40+M) tonnes..........(i)
Since the box will displace water equal to it's volume V we have 
Now the weight of water displaced = 
is density of water = 1000kg/
Thus weight of liquid displaced = 
..................(ii)
Equating i and ii we get
40 + M = 84.95
thus Mass of stones = 44.95 tonnes
Answer:
Glazier
Explanation:
Glaziers are workers who specializes in cutting and installation of glass works.
They work with glass in various surfaces and settings, such as cutting and installing windows and doors, skylights, storefronts, display cases, mirrors, facades, interior walls, etc.
Thus, the type of worker the contractor will hire for this project is a Glazier
Answer:
a) 
b)
Explanation:
Given that:
diameter d = 12 in
thickness t = 0.25 in
the radius = d/2 = 12 / 2 = 6 in
r/t = 6/0.25 = 24
24 > 10
Using the thin wall cylinder formula;
The valve A is opened and the flowing water has a pressure P of 200 psi.
So;
b)The valve A is closed and the water pressure P is 250 psi.
where P = 250 psi
The free flow body diagram showing the state of stress on a volume element located on the wall at point B is attached in the diagram below
Answer:
b. The pirating streams are eroding headwardly to intersect more of the other streams’ drainage basins, causing water to be diverted down their steeper gradients.
Explanation:
From the Kaaterskill NY 15 minute map (1906), this shows two classic examples of stream capture.
The Kaaterskill Creek flow down the east relatively steep slopes into the Hudson River Valley. While, the Gooseberry Creek is a low gradient stream flowing down the west direction which in turn drains the higher parts of the Catskills in this area.
However, there is Headward erosion of Kaaterskill Creek which resulted to the capture of part of the headwaters of Gooseberry Creek.
The evidence for this is the presence of "barbed" (enters at obtuse rather than acute angle) tributary which enters Kaaterskill Creek from South Lake which was once a part of the Gooseberry Creek drainage system.
It should be noted again, that there is drainage divide between the Gooseberry and Kaaterskill drainage systems (just to the left of the word Twilight) which is located in the center of the valley.
As it progresses, this divide will then move westward as Kaaterskill captures more and more of the Gooseberry system.
