What might cause a shotgun to explode?

2 answers:

5 0

When you pull the trigger to shoot a shotshell from a shotgun or a cartridge from a rifle or handgun, the firing pin strikes the primer in the base of the cartridge or shotshell. This causes the primer to explode. The spark from the primer ignites the gunpowder, which burns rapidly and converts to a gas.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

83.6%

Explanation:

On its current schedule, the plant can theoretically produce ...

(30 pc/h/machine)(10 machine)(8 h/shift)(2 shift/day)(5 day/wk)(50 wk/yr)

= (30)(10)(8)(2)(5)(50) pc/yr = 1,200,000 pc/yr

On the proposed schedule, this production becomes ...

(30 pc/mach)(10 mach)(8 h/sh)(3 sh/da)(6 da/wk)(51 wk/yr)

= (30)(10)(8)(3)(6)(51) pc/yr = 2,203,200 pc/yr

The increase in capacity is ...

(2,203,200/1,200,000 -1) × 100% = 83.6% . . . capacity increase

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The number of parts per shift did not change. Only the number of shifts per year changed. It went up by a factor of (3/2)(6/5)(51/50) = 1.836. Hence the 83.6% increase in capacity.

We have to assume that maintenance and repair are done as effectvely as before in the reduced down time that each machine has.

Calculate the number of atoms per cubic meter in Metal B (units atoms/m^3). Write your answer with 4 significant figures metal:

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

7,217*10^28 atoms/m^3

Explanation:

Metal: Vanadium
Density: 6.1 g/cm^3
Molecuar weight: 50,9 g/mol

The Avogadro's Number, 6,022*10^23, is the number of atoms in one mole of any substance. To calculate the number of atoms in one cubic meter of vanadium we write:

1m^3*(100^3 cm^3/1 m^3)*(6,1 g/1 cm^3)*(1 mol/50,9g)*(6,022*10^23 atoms/1 mol)=7,217*10^28 atoms

Therefore, for vanadium we have 7,217*10^28 atoms/m^3

A 5-mm-thick stainless steel strip (k = 21 W/m•K, rho = 8000 kg/m3, and cp = 570 J/kg•K) is being heat treated as it moves throu

Drupady [299]

Answer:

The temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

Explanation:

The characteristic length of the strip is given by;

$L_c = \frac{V}{A} = \frac{LA}{2A} = \frac{5*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.0025 \ m$

The Biot number is given as;

$B_i = \frac{h L_c}{k}\\\\B_i = \frac{80*0.0025}{21} \\\\B_i = 0.00952$

$B_i$ < 0.1, thus apply lumped system approximation to determine the constant time for the process;

$\tau = \frac{\rho C_p V}{hA_s} = \frac{\rho C_p L_c}{h}\\\\\tau = \frac{8000* 570* 0.0025}{80}\\\\\tau = 142.5 s$

The time for the heating process is given as;

$t = \frac{d}{V} \\\\t = \frac{3 \ m}{0.01 \ m/s} = 300 s$

Apply the lumped system approximation relation to determine the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace;

$T(t) = T_{ \infty} + (T_i -T_{\infty})e^{-t/ \tau}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (20 -930)e^{-300/ 142.5}\\\\T(t) = 930 + (-110.85)\\\\T_{(t)} = 819.15 \ ^0 C$

Therefore, the temperature of the strip as it exits the furnace is 819.15 °C

k0ka [10]

Answer:

point_dist = math.sqrt((math.pow(x2 - x1, 2) + math.pow(y2 - y1, 2))

Explanation:

The distance formula is the difference of the x coordinates squared, plus the difference of the y coordinates squared, all square rooted. For the general case, it appears you simply need to change how you have written the code.

point_dist = math.sqrt((math.pow(x2 - x1, 2) + math.pow(y2 - y1, 2))

Note, by moving the 2 inside of the pow function, you have provided the second argument that it is requesting.

You were close with your initial attempt, you just had a parenthesis after x1 and y1 when you should not have.

Cheers.
