Answer

given,

oil barrel weight  = 1.5 k N = 1500 N

weight of the barrel = 110 N

Assuming volume of barrel = 0.159 m³

weight of oil = 1500-110

                     = 1390 N

specific\ weight = \dfrac{weight}{volume}

specific\ weight = \dfrac{1390}{0.159}

            = 8742.14 N/m³

mass = \dfrac{weight}{g}

mass = \dfrac{1390}{9.8}

              = 141.84 kg

density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}

density = \dfrac{141.84}{0.159}

                    = 892.05 kg/m³

Specific\ gravity = \dfrac{density\ of\ oil}{density\ of\ water}

Specific\ gravity = \dfrac{892.05}{1000}

                    = 0.892

Why does the auto industry prefer uniform (national) standards for automobile emissions as opposed to regionally varying standar
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Explanation:

For automobile emission, a uniform standard is preferred, because no unnecessary advantage is given by it to any company that is located in particular states where the regional standards are less severe.

Since pollution has its impact across the states and in the whole of the USA, then there should be uniform standards across all the states. It will also invalidate the impact of regional standards as a factor in the selection of plant locations for the automobile company. It means that a state offering less valid emission standards, will attract more companies to herself and it will be against the other states who care more about the natural environment. It can make more states to opt for the permissive emission standards, that will be more harmful to the USA as a country, than the good. So, a uniform standard is preferred to eliminate it as a factor in plant location decisions.

Yes, uniform standards are beneficial to everyone, because it will bring effective control upon the pollution level because there will be no state where the culprit firm can hide. Besides, it is more effective as efforts done towards environment conservation.

The statement that is NOT true about the concept of a boundary layer on an object is: a. the Reynolds number is greater than uni
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Option E

Explanation:

All the given statements are true except the velocity gradients normal to the flow direction are small since these are not normally small. It's true that viscous effects are present only inside the boundary layer and the fluid velocity equals the free stream velocity at the edge of the boundary layer. Moreover, Reynolds number is greater than unity and the fluid velocity is zero at the surface of the object.

Which statement about tensile stress is true? A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a t
svp [43]

Answer:

A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a tensile stress on the object.

Explanation:

Tensile stress is referred as a deforming force, in which force acts perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart, attempting to elongate it.

The tensile stress is a type of normal stress, in which a perpendicular force creates the stress to an object’s surface.

Hence, the correct option is "A."
