Answer:

Racking is the term used for when buildings tilt as their structural components are forced out of plumb. This is most commonly caused by wind forces exerting horizontal pressure, but it can also be caused by seismic stress, thermal expansion or contraction, and so on.

Rotating magnetic field inside a set of conducting wires is a simple description of a what

Advocard [28]

Answer:

hii there

It is called an electromagnet. The strength of the magnetic field produced is determined by the amount of current passing through the conductor. The rotating magnetic field is the rotor and the windings in which current is produced are in the fixed stator.

What is the mode of operation of a ramp digital voltimeter

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The operating principle of a ramp type digital voltmeter is to measure the time that a linear ramp voltage takes to change from level of input voltage to zero voltage (or vice versa).

A horizontal curve on a two-lane road is designed with a 2,300-ft radius, 12-ft lanes, and a 65-mph design speed. Determine the

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

distance = 22.57 ft

superelevation rate = 2%

Explanation:

given data

radius = 2,300-ft

lanes width = 12-ft

no of lane = 2

design speed = 65-mph

solution

we get here sufficient sight distance SSD that is express as

SSD = 1.47 ut + $\frac{u^2}{30(\frac{a}{g}\pm G)}$ ..............1

here u is speed and t is reaction time i.e 2.5 second and a is here deceleration rate i.e 11.2 ft/s² and g is gravitational force i.e 32.2 ft/s² and G is gradient i.e 0 here

so put here value and we get

SSD = 1.47 × 65 ×2.5 + $\frac{65^2}{30(\frac{11.2}{32.2}\pm 0)}$

solve it we get

SSD = 644 ft

so here minimum distance clear from the inside edge of the inside lane is

Ms = Rv ( 1 - $cos (\frac{28.65 SSD}{Rv})$ ) .....................2

here Rv is = R - one lane width

Rv = 2300 - 6 = 2294 ft

put value in equation 2 we get

Ms = 2294 ( 1 - $cos (\frac{28.65 \times 664}{2294})$ )

solve it we get

Ms = 22.57 ft

and

superelevation rate for the curve will be here as

R = $\frac{u^2}{15(e+f)}$ ..................3

here f is coefficient of friction that is 0.10

put here value and we get e

2300 = $\frac{65^2}{15(e+0.10)}$

solve it we get

e = 2%

A cylindrical brass rod has a length of 5.00cm extending from a holder and a diameter of 4.50mm. Its Young's modulus is 98.0GPa.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

elongation of the brass rod is 0.01956 mm

Explanation:

given data

length = 5 cm = 50 mm

diameter = 4.50 mm

Young's modulus = 98.0 GPa

load = 610 N

to find out

what will be the elongation of the brass rod in mm

solution

we know here change in length formula that is express as

δ = $\frac{PL}{AE}$ ................1

here δ is change in length and P is applied load and A id cross section area and E is Young's modulus and L is length

so all value in equation 1

δ = $\frac{PL}{AE}$

δ = $\frac{610*50}{\frac{\pi}{4} * 4.50^2 * 98*10^3}$

δ = 0.01956 mm

so elongation of the brass rod is 0.01956 mm
