The section should span between 10.9 and 13.4 cm (4.30 and 5.30 inches) as measured from the end supports and should be able to
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

hello below is missing piece of the complete question

minimum size = 0.3 cm

answer : 0.247 N/mm2

Explanation:

Given data :

section span : 10.9 and 13.4 cm

minimum load applied evenly to the top of span  : 13 N

maximum load for each member ; 4.5 N

lets take each member to be 4.2 cm

Determine the max value of P before truss fails

Taking average value of section span ≈ 12 cm

Given minimum load distributed evenly on top of section span = 13 N  

we will calculate the value of   by applying this formula

= \frac{Wl^2}{12}  =  (0.013 * 0.0144 )/ 12  =  1.56 * 10^-5

next we will consider section ; 4.2 cm * 0.3 cm

hence Z (section modulus ) = BD^2 / 6  

                                             = ( 0.042 * 0.003^2 ) / 6  = 6.3*10^-8

Finally the max value of P( stress ) before the truss fails

= M/Z = ( 1.56 * 10^-5 ) / ( 6.3*10^-8 )  

          = 0.247 N/mm2

Explain the conductivity results observed for ionic compounds in the solid state and in aqueous solution.i.Solid ionic compounds
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Aqueous solution of ionic compounds conduct electricity while solid ionic compounds don't.

Explanation:

Ionic compound conduct electricity when liquid or in aqueous solution that is resolved in water because the ionic bonds of the compound become weak and the ions are free to move from place to place.

Ionic compounds don't conduct electricity while in solid state because the ionic bonds are to strong and ions cannot move around with lack of space for movement which makes the electric conductivity zero.

According to the amortization table, Demarco and Tanya will pay a total of in interest over the life of their loan.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(Interest rate/number of payments)*$170000= interest for the first month.

Interest amounts for all the months of repayment plus $170000=Total loan cost

Explanation:

Interest is the amount you pay for taking a loan from a bank on top of the original amount borrowed.

Factors affecting how much interest is paid are; the principal amount, the loan terms, repayment schedule, the repayment amount and the rate of interest.

The interest paid=(rate of interest/number of payments to make)*principal amount borrowed.

You divide the interest with number of payments done in a year where monthly are divided by 12.Multiplying it by loan balance in the first month which is your principal amount gives the interest rate to pay for that month.

You new loan balance will be= Principal -(repayment-interest)

Do this for the period the loan should take.

Add all the interest amount to original borrowed amount to get total cost of the loan after the period of time.

A double-pane insulated window consists of two 1 cm thick pieces of glass separated by a 1.8 cm layer of air. The window measure
Elanso [62]

Answer:

(b). T = 22.55 ⁰C

(c). q = 557.8 W

Explanation:

we take follow a step by step process to solving this problem.

from the question, we have that

The two glass pieces is separated by a 1.8 cm distance layer of air.

the thickness of glass piece is 1 cm

width = 4 m

the height = 3 m

(a). the sketch of the thermal circuit is uploaded in the picture below.

(b).  the thermal resistance due to the conduction in the first glass plane is given thus;

R₁ = Lg / Kg A ................(1)

given that Kg rep. the thermal conductivity of the glass plane

A = conduction surface area

Lg = Thickness of glass plane4

taking the thermal conductivity of glass plane as Kg = 0.78 w/mk

inputting values into equation (1) we have,

R₁ = [1 (cm) ˣ 1 (m)/100 (cm)] / [(0.78 w/mk)(4m ˣ 3m)]

R₁ = 1.068 ˣ 10 ⁻³ k/w

Being that we have same thermal resistance in the first and second plane,

therefore R₁ = R₃ = 1.068 ˣ 10 ⁻³ k/w

⇒ Also the thermal resistance between air and glass as a result of the conduction by the layer is given thus

R₂ = La/KaA .....................(2)

given Ka = thermal conductivity of air

A = surface area

La = thickness of air

substituting values into the equation we have

R₂ = [1.8 (cm) ˣ 1 (m)/100 (cm)] / [(0.0262 w/mk)(4m ˣ 3m)]

R₂ = 5.73 ˣ 10⁻² k/w

Given the thermal resistance on the outer surface due to convection, we have

R₄ = 1/hA

inputting value gives R₄ = 1 / (12 w/m² ˣ 12m) = 6.94 ˣ 10⁻³k/w

R₄ = 6.94 ˣ 10⁻³k/w

Finally the sum total of thermal resistance = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄

R-total = 0.0663 kw

From this we can calculate the rate of heat loss

using  q = Ti - To / R-total ..............(3)

given Ti and To is the inside and outside temperature i.e. 27⁰C and -10⁰C

from equation (3),

q = 27- (-10) / 0.0063 = 557.8 W

q = 557.8 W  

⇒ Applying the heat transfer formula for inside surface glass temperature gives;

q = Ti - T₂ / R₃ + R₄

T₂ = Ti - q (R₃ + R₄)

T₂ = 27 - 557.8 (1.068ˣ10⁻³ + 6.94ˣ10⁻³ ) = 22.55°C

T₂ = 22.55°C

cheers i hope this helps
