Answer:

here's an essay I wrote one this topic

Explanation:

The early 1970s saw price and wage freezes and high unemployment. The oil crisis of 1973 and 1979 served to help slow an already snail-paced economy, and by 1979, the U.S. was experiencing the worst inflation in 33 years.

A growing world market was not helping the economic transition as traditionally strong big businesses like automotive and steel lost market shares to Europe and Japan. At the beginning of the decade, the government bailed out Lockheed Martin with $250 million worth of loan guarantees. Later it did the same for Chrysler—to the tune of $1 billion.

Obviously, the old ways of doing business were failing. The seeds of concern about more efficient operations, more flexibility, and higher quality were taking root in this decade for the eventual growth of a new paradigm in manufacturing that would flourish in the 80s. As NCs and DNCs gained recognition and popularity, the benefits of faster, more accurate cutting began to make demands on traditional tooling, controls, inspection, and other facets of the manufacturing process. This led to the development of many new companies who were ready to meet the challenges of a transitioning decade and make the products that would fulfill the needs of a new world of manufacturing.

As manufacturers looked for inexpensive solutions to their problems, those in the machine tool industry responded with new, lower-cost technologies. GE Fanuc Automation for one developed its Mark Century 550 Series in 1970. The highly-reliable control system was marketed as a complex, low-cost NC and became popular in the worldwide market. It introduced new features like lathe canned cycles, spindle speed monitor, battery backed tool offset, RAM memory, and cutter compensation.

A light bar AD is suspended from a cable BE and supports a 20-kg block at C. The ends A and D of the bar are in contact with fri
babymother [125]

Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are  73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

T_{BE}-W=0 hence

T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N

Therefore, tension in the cable, T_{BE}=196.2 N

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0

24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0

D_x=73.575 N

Similarly,

A_x-D_y=0

A_x=73.575 N

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N

How are speed and acceleration related
erica [24]
R = distance

dr/dt speed or with a direction, velocity

d(dr/dt)/dt = the time derivative of the velocity is called acceleration.

Speed is a scalar. Acceleration is a vector.

A hydraulic jump is induced in an 80 ft wide channel.The water depths on either side of the jump are 1 ft and 10 ft.Please calcu
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

a) 42.08 ft/sec

b) 3366.33 ft³/sec

c) 0.235

d) 18.225 ft

e) 3.80 ft

Explanation:

Given:

b = 80ft

y1 = 1 ft

y2 = 10ft

a) Let's take the formula:

\frac{y2}{y1} = \frac{1}{5} * \sqrt{1 + 8f^2 - 1}

10*2 = \sqrt{1 + 8f^2 - 1

1 + 8f² = (20+1)²

= 8f² = 440

f² = 55

f = 7.416

For velocity of the faster moving flow, we have :

\frac{V_1}{\sqrt{g*y_1}} = 7.416

V_1 = 7.416 *\sqrt{32.2*1}

V1 = 42.08 ft/sec

b) the flow rate will be calculated as

Q = VA

VA = V1 * b *y1

= 42.08 * 80 * 1

= 3366.66 ft³/sec

c) The Froude number of the sub-critical flow.

V2.A2 = 3366.66

Where A2 = 80ft * 10ft

Solving for V2, we have:

V_2 = \frac{3666.66}{80*10}

= 4.208 ft/sec

Froude number, F2 =

\frac{V_2}{g*y_2} = \frac{4.208}{32.2*10}

F2 = 0.235

d) El = \frac{(y_2 - y_1)^3}{4*y_1*y_2}

El = \frac{(10-1)^3}{4*1*10}

= \frac{9^3}{40}

= 18.225ft

e) for critical depth, we use :

y_c = [\frac{(\frac{3366.66}{80})^2}{32.2}]^1^/^3

= 3.80 ft

marysya [2.9K]

GPS device  details are given below.

Explanation:

Even a simple GPS unit has a wide range of settings and features. Because every unit’s operation varies, this article won’t provide step-by-step details. Read the owner's manual to familiarize yourself with it.. If you’d like additional help, you can also sign up for a GPS navigation class at an REI store.

Though steps vary, all GPS receivers do the following basic functions:

Display position: A GPS tells you where you are by displaying your coordinates; it also shows your position on its base map or topo map.

Record tracks: When tracking is turned on, a GPS automatically lays down digital bread crumbs, called “track points,” at regular intervals. You use those later to retrace your steps or to evaluate the path you traveled.

Navigate point-to-point: A GPS directs you by giving you the direction and distance to a location, or “waypoint.” You can pre-mark waypoints by entering their coordinates at home. In the field you can have the unit mark a waypoint at a place you'd like to return to, such as the trailhead or your campsite. A GPS unit provides the bearing and distance “as the crow flies” to a waypoint. Because trails don’t follow a straight line, the bearing changes as you hike. The distance to travel also changes (decreasing, unless you’re heading the wrong direction) as you approach your goal.

Display trip data: This odometer-like function tells you cumulative stats like how far you’ve come and how high you’ve climbed.

GPS and your computer: GPS units come with a powerful software program that lets you manage maps, plan routes, analyze trips and more. Invest the time to learn it and to practice using all of its capabilities.

Here are some of the basic rights of animals.

- No experiments on animals.

- No breeding and killing animals for food or clothes or medicine.

- No use of animals for hard labor.

- No selective breeding for any reason other than the benefit of the animal.

- No hunting.

- No zoos or use of animals in entertainment.
