Answer:

I'm going to make a list of everything you need to consider for the supervision and design of the bridge.

1. the materials with which you are going to build it.

2. the length of the bridge.

3. The dynamic and static load to which the bridge will be subjected.

4. How corrosive is the environment where it will be built.

5.wind forces

6. The force due to possible earthquakes.

7. If it is going to be built in an environment where snow falls.

8. The bridge is unique,so   the shape has a geometry that resists loads?.

9. bridge costs.

10. Personal and necessary machines.

11. how much the river grows

A negative pressure respirator brings fresh air to you through a hose<br>A) True<br>B)False​
madreJ [45]

Answer:FALSE

Explanation: A negative pressure respirator is a respiratory system which is known to have a low air pressure inside the mask when compared to the air pressure on the outside during Inhalation.

Most of the personal protective equipment (PPE) which are in use in various industries are examples of Negative pressure respirator device,any leak or damage done to the device will allow the inflows of harmful and toxic Air into the person's respiratory system. AIR SUPPLY SYSTEMS ARE KNOWN TO SUPPLY FRESH UNCONTAMINATED AIR THROUGH AIR STORED INSIDE COMPRESSED CYLINDERS OR OTHER SOURCES AVAILABLE.

A car accelerates from rest with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. The acceleration decreases linearly with time to zero in 15 s, afte
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: At time 18.33 seconds it will have moved 500 meters.

Explanation:

Since the acceleration of the car is a linear function of time it can be written as a function of time as

a(t)=5(1-\frac{t}{15})

a=\frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}\\\\\therefore \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}=5(1-\frac{t}{15})

Integrating both sides we get

\int \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}}dt=\int 5(1-\frac{t}{15})dt\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=v=5t-\frac{5t^{2}}{30}+c

Now since car starts from rest thus at time t = 0 ; v=0 thus c=0

again integrating with respect to time we get

\int \frac{dx}{dt}dt=\int (5t-\frac{5t^{2}}{30})dt\\\\x(t)=\frac{5t^{2}}{2}-\frac{5t^{3}}{90}+D

Now let us assume that car starts from origin thus D=0

thus in the first 15 seconds it covers a distance of

x(15)=2.5\times 15^{2}-\farc{15^{3}}{18}=375m

Thus the remaining 125 meters will be covered with a constant speed of

v(15)=5\times 15-\frac{15^{2}}{6}=37.5m/s

in time equalling t_{2}=\frac{125}{37.5}=3.33seconds

Thus the total time it requires equals 15+3.33 seconds

t=18.33 seconds

A world class runner can run long distances at a pace of 15 km/hour. That runner expends 800 kilocalories of energy per hour. a)
maks197457 [2]

Answer: a) 1.05kW b) 3.78MJ c) 5.3 bars

Explanation :

A)

Conversions give 900 kcal as 900000 x 4.2 J/cal {4.2 J/cal is the standard factor}

= 3780kJ

And 1 hour = 3600s

Therefore, Power in watts = 3780/3600 = 1.05kW = 1050W

B)

At 15km/hour a 15km run takes 1 hour.

1 hour is 3600s and the runner burns 1050 joule per second.

Energy used in 1 hour = 3600 x 1050 J/s

= 3780000 J or 3.78MJ

C)

1 mile = 1.61km so 13.1 mile is 13.1 x 1.61 = 21.1km

15km needs 3.78 MJ of energy therefore 21.1km needs 3.78 x 21.1/15 = 5.32MJ =5320 kJ

Finally,

1 Milky Way = 240000 calories = 4.2 x 240000 J = 1008000J or 1008kJ

This means that the runner needs 5320/1008 = 5.3 bars
