Answer:

Explanation:

Ductile materials typically have a higher ultimate strength because they stretch absorbing more energy before breaking. While fragile materials snap in half before larger deformations due to larger loads occur.

It should be noted that when ductile materials stretch their section becomes smaller, and in that reduced section the stresses concentrate.

Answer:

$P = 150.335\,kPa$ (Option B)

Explanation:

The absolute pressure of the air-filled tank is:

$P = 101.3\,kPa + \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (5\,m)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,kPa}{1000\,Pa} \right)$

$P = 150.335\,kPa$

Convert 250 lb·ft to N.m. Express your answer using three significant figures.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

It will be equivalent to 338.95 N-m

Explanation:

We have to convert 250 lb-ft to N-m

We know that 1 lb = 4.45 N

So foe converting from lb to N we have to multiply with 4.45

So 250 lb = 250×4.45 =125 N

And we know that 1 feet = 0.3048 meter

Now we have to convert 250 lb-ft to N-m

So $250lb-ft=250\times 4.45N\times 0.348M=338.95N-m$

So 250 lb-ft = 338.95 N-m

Answer:The answer is Potassium!

Explanation: This is true because each label should tell you about the available amount of a certain element. The standard order is Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium. They are referred to by their standard abbreviations in the periodic table. One problem with fertilizer labels are that they are only required to disclose the amounts of macronutrients (or Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium.)
