Why does the auto industry prefer uniform (national) standards for automobile emissions as opposed to regionally varying standar

ds? Are uniform standards beneficial to everyone?
Engineering
1 answer:
WINSTONCH [101]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

For automobile emission, a uniform standard is preferred, because no unnecessary advantage is given by it to any company that is located in particular states where the regional standards are less severe.

Since pollution has its impact across the states and in the whole of the USA, then there should be uniform standards across all the states. It will also invalidate the impact of regional standards as a factor in the selection of plant locations for the automobile company. It means that a state offering less valid emission standards, will attract more companies to herself and it will be against the other states who care more about the natural environment. It can make more states to opt for the permissive emission standards, that will be more harmful to the USA as a country, than the good. So, a uniform standard is preferred to eliminate it as a factor in plant location decisions.

Yes, uniform standards are beneficial to everyone, because it will bring effective control upon the pollution level because there will be no state where the culprit firm can hide. Besides, it is more effective as efforts done towards environment conservation.

Answer:

Common Uses: Boxwood is well-suited for carving and turning, and the tree's diminutive size restricts it to smaller projects. Some common uses for Boxwood include: carvings, chess pieces, musical instruments (flutes, recorders, woodwinds, etc.), rulers, handles, turned objects, and other small specialty items.If you want a small, compact, low-growing shrub to form a hedge that serves as an accent or border along your walkway, fence line or planting beds, dwarf boxwood varieties are the best pick. The "Dwarf English" boxwood (Buxus sempervirens “Suffruticosa”) creates a border hedge approximately 1 to 2 feet in height.

An add tape of 101 ft is incorrectly recorded as 100 ft for a 200-ft distance. What is
baherus [9]

Answer:

the correct distance is 202 ft

Explanation:

The computation of the correct distance is shown below:

But before that correction to be applied should be determined

= (101 ft - 100 ft) ÷ (100 ft) × 200 ft

= 2 ft

Now the correct distance is

= 200 ft +  2 ft

= 202 ft

Hence, the correct distance is 202 ft

The same would be relevant and considered too

A 1 m wide continuous footing is designed to support an axial column load of 250 kN per meter of wall length. The footing is pla
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

correct option is (A) 0.5

Explanation:

given data

axial column load = 250 kN per meter

footing placed =  0.5 m

cohesion = 25 kPa

internal friction angle =  5°

solution

we know angle of internal friction is 5° that is near to 0°

so it means the soil is almost cohesive soil.

and for  a pure cohesive soil

N_{\gamma } = 0

and we know formula for N_{\gamma } is

N_{\gamma } = (Nq - 1 ) × tan(Ф)   ..................1

so here Ф is very less  N_{\gamma } should be nearest to zero

and its value can be 0.5

so correct option is (A) 0.5

A piston-cylinder assembly has initially a volume of 0.3 m3 of air at 25 °C. Mass of the air is 1 kg. Weights are put on the pis
kogti [31]

Answer:

n=2.32

w= -213.9 KW

Explanation:

V_1=0.3m^3,T_1=298 K

V_2=0.1m^3,T_1=1273 K

Mass of air=1 kg

For polytropic process  pv^n=C ,n is the polytropic constant.

  Tv^{n-1}=C

  T_1v^{n-1}_1=T_2v^{n-1}_2

298\times .3^{n-1}_1=1273\times .1^{n-1}_2

n=2.32

Work in polytropic process given as

       w=\dfrac{P_1V_1-P_2V_2}{n-1}

      w=mR\dfrac{T_1-T_2}{n-1}

Now by putting the values

w=1\times 0.287\dfrac{289-1273}{2.32-1}

w= -213.9 KW

Negative sign indicates that work is given to the system or work is done on the system.

For T_V diagram

  We can easily observe that when piston cylinder reach on new position then volume reduces and temperature increases,so we can say that this is compression process.
