Give an example of one technology that is well matched to the needs of the environment, and one technology that is not.

A machine used to lift motorcycles consists of an electric winch pulling on one supporting cable of a block and tackle system. T

Kobotan [32]

Answer: So you are dealing with maximum and minimum weights and you want to know what MINIMUM number of supporting strands for this block and tackle system are needed I believe. If so you are dealing with economic imbalances Though we are not worrying about money Right? Right we need physics which Physics study matter and how it moves You would need 8 STRANDS

Travel Time Problem: Compute the time of concentration using the Velocity, Sheet Flow Method for Non-Mountainous Orange County a

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Total time taken = 0.769 hour

Explanation:

using the velocity method

for sheet flow ;

Tt = $\frac{0.007(nl)^{0.8} }{(Pl)^{5}s^{0.4} }$

Tt = travel time

n = manning CaH

Pl = 25years

L = how length ( ft )

s = slope

For Location ( 1 )

s = 0.045

L = 1000 ft

n = 0.06 ( from manning's coefficient table )

Tt1 = 0.128 hour

For Location ( 2 )

s = 2.5 %

L= 750

n = 0.13

Tt2 = 0.239 hour

For Location ( 3 )

s = 1.5%

L = 500 ft

n = 0.15

Tt3 = 0.237 hour

For Location (4)

s = 0.5 %

L = 250 ft

n = 0.011

Tt4 = 0.165 hour

hence the Total time taken = Tt1 + Tt2 + Tt3 + Tt4

= 0.128 + 0.239 + 0.237 + 0.165 = 0.769 hour

Two vertical, parallel clean glass plates are spaced a distance of 2mm apart. if the plates are placed in water, how high will t

Ulleksa [173]

Answer with Explanation:

The capillary rise in 2 parallel plates immersed in a liquid is given by the formula

$h=\frac{2\sigma cos(\alpha )}{\rho gd}$

where

$\sigma$ is the surface tension of the liquid

$\alpha$ is the contact angle of the liquid

$\rho$ is density of liquid

'g' is acceleratioj due to gravity

'd' is seperation between thje plates

Part a) When the liquid is water:

For water and glass we have

$\sigma =7.28\times 10^{-2}N/m$

$\alpha =0$

$\rho _{w}=1000kg/m^3$

Applying the values we get

$h=\frac{2\times 7.28\times 10^{-2}cos(0)}{1000\times 9.81\times 2\times 10^{-3}}=7.39mm$

Part b) When the liquid is mercury:

For mercury and glass we have

$\sigma =485.5\times 10^{-3}N/m$

$\alpha =138^o$

$\rho _{w}=13.6\times 10^{3}kg/m^3$

Applying the values we get

$h=\frac{2\times 485.5\times 10^{-3}cos(138)}{13.6\times 1000\times 9.81\times 2\times 10^{-3}}=-2.704mm$

The negative sign indicates that there is depression in mercury in the tube.

The extruder head in a fused- deposition modeling setup has a diameter of 1.25 mm (0.05 in) and produces layers that are 0.25mm

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The time taken will be "1 hour 51 min". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Number of required layers:

= $\frac{38}{0.25}$

= $152 \ layers$

Diameter (d):

= 1.25 mm

Velocity (v):

= 40 mm/s

Now,

The area of one layer will be:

= $38\times 38 \ mm^2$

= $1444 \ mm^2$

The area covered every \second will be:

= $d\times v$

= $1.25\times 40$

= $50 \ mm^2$

The time required to deposit one layer will be:

= $\frac{1444}{50}$

= $28.88 \ sec$

The time required for one layer will be:

= $15 \ sec$

∴ Total times required for one layer will be:

= $15+28.88$

= $43.88 \ sec$

So,

Number of layers = 152

Therefore,

Total time will be:

= $152\times 43.88$

= $6669.76 \ sec$

= $1 \ hour \ 51 \ min$

A spherical hot air balloon is initially filled with air having 120 kPa pressure and 24 °C temperature. Initial diameter of the

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

v = 1.076 m /s

Explanation:

Initial volume of balloon = 4/3 x 3.14 x (9.905/2)³

=508.56 m³

Final volume of balloon = 4/3 x 3.14 x (16.502/2)³

= 2351.73 m³

Increase in volume = 1843.17 m³

Cross sectional area of inlet A = 3.14 x( 1.458/2)²

A = 1.6687 m²

Volume rate of flow of air = cross sectional area x velocity of inflow

= 1 .6687 V [ V is velocity of inflow ]

Total time taken = Increase in volume / rate of flow of air

17.108 X 60 = 1843.17 / 1.6687 V

V = $\frac{1843.17}{1.6687\times17.108\times60}$

v = 1.076 m /s
