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

3. If nothing can ever be at absolute zero, why does the concept exist?
Tanzania [10]

The absolute zero in temperature refers to the minimal possible temperature. It is the temperature at which the molecules of a system stop moving, so it is a really useful reference point.

<h3>Why absolute zero can't be reached?</h3>

It would mean that we need to remove all the energy from a system, but to do this we need to interact with the system in some way, and by interacting with it we give it "some" energy.

Actually, from a quantum mechanical point of view, the absolute zero has a residual energy (so it is not actually zero) and it is called the "zero point". This happens because it must meet <u>Heisenberg's uncertainty principle</u>.

So yes, the absolute zero can't be reached, but there are really good approximations (At the moment there is a difference of about 150 nanokelvins between the absolute zero and the smallest temperature reached). Also, there are a lot of investigations near the absolute zero, like people that try to reach it or people that just need to work with really low temperatures, like in type I superconductors.

So, concluding, why does the concept exist?

  • Because it is a reference point.
  • It is the theoretical temperature at which the molecules stop moving, defining this as the <u>minimum possible temperature.</u>

What level of wildfire risk do people living in Boulder have?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The risk of catastrophic wildfire is a real and serious threat facing those who reside in the forested areas of Boulder County. Dating back to the Black Tiger Fire of 1989, wildfires have collectively destroyed some 250 homes or other structures, burned over 16,000 acres, and threatened the lives and properties of thousands of mountain residents. In an attempt to mitigate the loss of life and property in Boulder County, the Land Use Department has included wildfire mitigation measures in the planning review and building permit process.

What happens in double transverse wishbone front suspension when brakes are applied.
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

When the brakes are applied the in the typical double transverse wishbone front suspension,  it "drives" the car ground due to the setting of the link-type system pivot points on the lower wishbone are have parallel alignment to the road

Explanation:

In order to minimize the car's reaction to the application of the brakes, the front and rear pivot are arranged with the lower wishbone's rear pivot made to be higher than the front pivot as such the inclined wishbone torque results in an opposing vertical force to the transferred extra weight from the back due to breaking.
