Answer:

The governing ratio for thin walled cylinders is 10 if you use the radius. So if you divide the cylinder´s radius by its thickness and your result is more than 10, then you can use the thin walled cylinder stress formulas, in other words:

if $\frac{radius}{thickness} >10$ then you have a thin walled cylinder

or using the diameter:

if $\frac{diameter}{thickness} >20$ then you have a thin walled cylinder

Alina [70]

Answer:

Δx = 25 ft.

Explanation:

Assuming that the person on the ground starts running at the same time as the egg is dropped, we have two simultaneous trajectories:

1 ) Egg falling:

If the egg is dropped, and we neglect the air resistance, we can use the kinematic equation that relates the distance and fall time, as follows:

yf-y₀ = 1/2* g* t²

If we take the up direction as positive, we can solve for t as follows:

0-100 ft = 1/2* (-32.15 ft/s²)* t²

⇒ t = $\sqrt{(100*2)/32.15}$ = 2.5 sec.

2) Person on the ground running away:

In order to be able to run away, and then return to catch the egg, running at constant speed, he must run during exactly the half of the time that the egg is falling, i.e., 1.25 sec.

We can get the distance at which he can reach, applying the definition of velocity:

v = (xf-x₀) / (tfi-t₀)

If we choose t₀=0 and x₀ = 0 , we can solve for xf, as follows:

xf = v*t = 20 ft/sec*1.25 sec = 25 ft.

Komok [63]

Answer:Antifreeze/coolant

Explanation: keeps your engine cool in warm weather and keeps it from freezing up in the winter. A 50-50 mix of full strength coolant and water generally protects to around -30 degrees Fahrenheit. Make sure you check with the supplier or your owner's manual for the correct formulation

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

✔️a healthy mind resides in a healthy body.

Explanation:

The seers were of the opinion that "a healthy mind resides in a healthy body."

Just like the English translation of a famous quotation from Thales, pre-Socratic Greek philosopher puts it "a sound mind in a sound body"; which tries to demonstrate the close connections that exists in bodily well-being and one's ability to enjoy life.

The seers were actually of the opinion that a healthy mind resides in a healthy body. It implies that there is connection between the body and the mind. When the body catches an illness, the mind and other parts of the body are affected. When our minds are not healthy, it affects the effective functioning of the body.

So, a healthy mind will definitely be found in a healthy body.

An escalator handles a steady load of 26 people per minute in elevating them from the first to the second floor through a vertic

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

Explanation:

The power needed to make the escalator working is obtained by means of the Work-Energy Theorem:

$\dot W = \dot U_{g}$

$\dot W = \dot n \cdot m_{p}\cdot g \cdot \Delta y$

$\dot W = \left(26\,\frac{persons}{min}\right)\cdot (124\,lbm)\cdot \left(32.174\,\frac{ft}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,lbf}{32.174\,\frac{lbm\cdot ft}{s^{2}} } \right)\cdot (27.5\,ft)$

$\dot W = 88660\,\frac{lbf\cdot ft}{min}\,\left(2.687\,hp\right)$

The mechanical efficiency of the escalator is:

$\eta = \frac{2.687\,hp}{3.8\,hp}\times 100\,\%$

$\eta = 70.711\,\%$

A 50 mm diameter shaft is subjected to a static axial load of 160 kN. If the yield stress of the material is 350 MPa, the ultima

zvonat [6]

In order to develop this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to fatigue and compression effort and Goodman equation, i.e, an equation that can be used to quantify the interaction of mean and alternating stresses on the fatigue life of a materia.

With the given data we can proceed to calculate the compression stress:

$\sigma_c = \frac{P}{A}$
