Answer:

height ≈ 60.60 m

Explanation:

The surveyor is trying to find the height of the hill . He takes a sight on the top of the hill and finds the angle of elevation is 40°. The distance from the hill where he measured the angle of elevation of 40° is not known.

Now he moves 150 m on level ground directly away from the hill and take a second sight from this point and measures the angle of elevation as 22°. This illustration forms a right angle triangle. The opposite side of the triangle is the height of the hill. The adjacent side of the triangle which is 150 m is the distance on level ground directly away from the hill.

Using tangential ratio,

tan 22° = opposite/adjacent

tan 22° = h/150

h = 150 × tan 22°

h = 150 × 0.40402622583

h = 60.6039338753

height ≈ 60.60 m

Blababa [14]

Answer:

(a) Precipitation hardening

(1) The strengthening mechanism involves the hindering of dislocation motion by precipitates/particles.

(2) The hardening/strengthening effect is not retained at elevated temperatures for this process.

(4) The strength is developed by a heat treatment.  

(b) Dispersion strengthening

(1) The strengthening mechanism involves the hindering of dislocation motion by precipitates/particles.  

(3) The hardening/strengthening effect is retained at elevated temperatures for this process.

(5) The strength is developed without a heat treatment.

In the engineering design and prototyping process, what is the advantage of drawings and symbols over written descriptions?
MrMuchimi

The advantages that can be associated to

drawings and symbols over written descriptions in engineering design and prototyping process are;

Communicate design ideas as well as technical information to engineers.

Symbols and drawings can be universal which means it is easy to interpret any where by professionals.

  • An engineering drawing serves as complex dimensional object and symbol use by engineer to communicate.

  • Drawings and symbols makes it easier to communicate design ideas and technical information to engineers and and how the process will go.

Therefore, drawings and symbols is universal to all engineer unlike written one.

A coal fired power plant geneartes 2.4 lbs. of CO2 per kWh. A lighting system consumes 300,000kWh per year. A corporation is con
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The perceived economic impact of CO2 generated per year by lighting sstem is $8164.67.

Explanation:

The CO2 requirement for the plant is:

Amount of CO2 per year = (2.4 lb / KWh)(300,000 KWh)

Amount of CO2 per year = (720000 lb)(1 ton/ 2204.62 lb)

Amount of CO2 per year = 326.59 ton

The perceived economic impact of CO2 generated per year will then be:

Economic Impact = ($25 / ton)(326.59 ton)

<u>Economic Impact = $8164.67</u>
