Three boards, each 50 mm thick, are nailed together to form a beam that is subjected to a 1200-N vertical shear. Knowing that th

e allowable shearing force in each nail is 700 N, determine the largest permissible spacing s between the nails.

Answer:

Using equation

qs=F

q=VQ/I   V=1200

q=998.45 N

qs=F

s=F/q

s=700/998.45

spacing=s=0.701 m

Answer:

The question is incomplete. The mass of the board is needed in order to calculate the moment of inertia of the beam. 91.67 * 10⁶mm⁴ is used as the moment of inertia in the calculation below. You can always substitute to get your answer.

The spacing is  95.1mm

Explanation:

Given'

vertical shear V = 1200N

Shearing force = 700N

Thickness of each board = 50mm

The spacing can be calculated using the formula;

F = q * s---------------------------1

but, q = VQ/I---------------------------------2

Therefore,  F = VQ/I  * s ------------------------------3

where,

s = spacing

v = vertical shear

f = shearing force

I = moment of inertia

Making s subject formula in equation 3, we have

s = FI/VQ-------------------------------4

but Q = YA

A = area = 50 *(150)

Y = 75

therefore, Q = 75 *50*150

Q= 5.625* 10⁶mm⁴

Substituting into equation 4, we have

s = 700 * 91.67 *10⁶) / (1200*5.625* 10⁶)

   =  6.42*10¹⁰ /6.75*10⁸

  = 95.1mm

<span>F x L = W x X whereW=weight is total load = 80, L is length from fulcrum which is the unknown and what we are solving for. x= length we know. and F equals 50 force we know. So (W*X)/F=LL equals 64</span>

What are the consequences of sediment pollution?
Nonamiya [84]
Loss of habitats for fish, birds, and other wildlife. Sediment pollution is one of the leading causes of the loss of the wetlands, but it’s not just the wetlands. Changes in the nutrients in your water. The same problem that affects the fish in your area may also affect you. Other drinking water contamination.

Which statement best explains why sound waves cannot travel through space
Naddika [18.5K]
The vacuum of outer space has essentially zero air. Because sound is just vibrating air, space has no air to vibrate and therefore no sound. If you are sitting in a space ship and another space ship explodes, you would hear nothing. So, in order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. On Earth, sound travels to your ears by vibrating air molecules. In deep space, the large empty areas between stars and planets, there are no molecules to vibrate. There is no sound there.
