Gas is kept in a 0.1 m diameter cylinder under the weight of a 100 kg piston that is held down by a spring with a stiffness k =

5 kN / m. If the gauge pressure of the gas is 300 kPa, how much is the spring compressed?

Answer:

The spring is compressed by 0.275 meters.

Explanation:

For equilibrium of the gas and the piston the pressure exerted by the gas on the piston should be equal to the sum of  weight of the piston and the force the spring exerts on the piston

Mathematically we can write

Force_{pressure}=Force_{spring}+Weight_{piston}

we know that

Force_{pressure}=Pressure\times Area=300\times 10^{3}\times \frac{\pi \times 0.1^2}{4}=750\pi Newtons

Weight_{piston}=mass\times g=100\times 9.81=981Newtons

Now the force exerted by an spring compressed by a distance 'x' is given by Force_{spring}=k\cdot x=5\times 10^{3}\times x

Using the above quatities in the above relation we get

5\times 10^{3}\times x+981=750\pi \\\\\therefore x=\frac{750\pi -981}{5\times 10^{3}}=0.275meters

1. The construction process begins with which of the following stages?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

c) site preparation

Explanation:

A construction process can be defined as a series of important physical events (processes) that must be accomplished during the execution of a construction project.

Generally, in the construction of any physical asset such as offices, hospitals, schools, stadiums etc, the first step of the construction process is site preparation. Site preparation refers to processes such as clearing, blasting, levelling, landfilling, surveying, cutting, excavating and demolition of all unwanted objects on a piece of land, so as to make it ready for use.

This ultimately implies that, site preparation should be the first task to be accomplished in the construction process.

Hence, the construction process typically begins with site preparation before other activities such as the laying of foundation can be done.

Additionally, construction costs can be defined as the overall costs associated with the development of a built asset, project or property. The construction costs is classified into two (2) main categories and these are; capital and operational costs.

with a digital system, if you have measured incorrectly and use too low of a kvp for adequate penetration, what do you need to d
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The x-ray beam's penetrating power is regulated by kVp (beam quality). Every time an exposure is conducted, the x-rays need to be powerful (enough) to sufficiently penetrate through the target area.

<h3>How does kVp impact the exposure to digital receptors?</h3>

The radiation's penetration power and exposure to the image receptor both increase as the kVp value is raised.

<h3>Exposure to the image receptor is enhanced with an increase in kVp, right?</h3>

Due to an increase in photon quantity and penetrability, exposure at the image receptor rises by a factor of five of the change in kVp, doubling the intensity at the detector with a 15% change in kVp.
