Answer:

a) the two-way concrete joist framing system

Explanation:

A waffle slab is also known as ribbed slab, it is a slab which as waffle like appearance with holes beneath. It is adopted in construction projects that has long length, length more than 12m. The waffle slab is rigid, therefore it is used in building that needs minimal vibration.

The explosion of a hydrogen bomb can be approximated by a fireball with a temperature of 7200 K, according to a report published

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

a

The rate of radiation of the energy is $E_r = 1.523747635*10^9 W/m^2$

b

The irradiation is $G =46.177\ kW/m^2$

c

The amount of energy absorbed is $E_B = 461.772 KJ$

d

The oak Tree would catch fire because the temperature of the blast(7200 K) is higher than the flammability limit (650 K) of the oak tree and secondly the thickness is very small

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The temperature is $T = 7200K$

The diameter of the ball is $d = 1.5 km = 1.5 *1000 = 1500m$

Hence the radius = $= \frac{1500}{2} = 750m$

The total energy radiated can be mathematically represented as

$E = \sigma A T^4$

Where $\sigma$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant $\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = 5.67*10^{-8} W \ \cdot m^{-2} K^{-4}$

A is the area of a sphere = $\pi d^2 = 3.142 * 1500^2 = 7.069500 *10 ^6\ m^2$

Substituting values we have

$E = 5,67*10^{-8} * 7.069500*10^6 * 7200^4$

$=1.077*10^{15} W$

Now the state of the energy is mathematically represented as

$Rate \ of \ energy \ radiation (E_r)= \frac{E}{A} = \sigma T^4$

$= 5.67*10^{-8} * 7200^2$

$= 1.523747635*10^9 W/m^2$

A sketch illustrating the b part of the question is shown on the first uploaded image

looking at the height at which the blast occurs(16km) as compared to the height of the wall we notice that the height of the wall is negligibly small

from the diagram x can be calculated as follows

$x = \sqrt{40^2 + 16^2}$

$= 43.0813 Km$

This value of x represents the radius of the blast(assuming it is spherical ) when it is at that wall

Now the irradiation G is mathematically represented as

$G = \frac{E}{4 \pi r^2}$

Here r = 43.0813 Km = 43.0813 × 1000 = 43081.3 m

$G= \frac{1.077*10^15}{4 \pi (431081.3^2)}$

$G =46.177\ kW/m^2$

Generally the amount of energy absorbed can be mathematically represented as

$Amount \ of \ energy \ absorbed \ (E_B ) = G * t$

Where t is the time taken

Therefore $E_B = 46.177 *10 = 461.77 KJ$

Which of these energy technologies does not rely on a generator to produce electricity?

Phantasy [73]

<u>Wind turbine</u> does not rely on a generator to produce electricity. Thus, the correct option is option A.

<h3>What is a generator?</h3>

A generator is a device used in the production of electricity that transforms motive power, which is mechanical energy, or fuel-based power, which is chemical energy, into electric power for use in an external circuit.

Steam turbines, gas turbines, water turbines, internal combustion engines, wind turbines, and even hand cranks can all be used to generate mechanical energy. Michael Faraday, a British scientist, created the Faraday disk, the first electromagnetic generator, in 1831. For electric power grids, generators supply almost all of the energy.

Photovoltaic and fuel cell powered generators, in addition to electromechanical designs, use solar power and hydrogen-based fuels, respectively, to produce electrical output.

Which of the following statements about glycogen metabolism is FALSE?

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Glycogen is the primary energy source for muscle and liver cells.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a readily mobilized storage form of glucose. It is a very large, branched polymer of glucose residues that can be broken down to yield glucose molecules when energy is needed. Most of the glucose residues in glycogen are linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Branches at about every tenth residue are created by α-1,6-glycosidic bonds.

Glycogen is not as reduced as fatty acids are and consequently not as energy rich. Why do animals store any energy as glycogen? Why not convert all excess fuel into fatty acids? Glycogen is an important fuel reserve for several reasons. The controlled breakdown of glycogen and release of glucose increase the amount of glucose that is available between meals. Hence, glycogen serves as a buffer to maintain blood-glucose levels. Glycogen's role in maintaining blood-glucose levels is especially important because glucose is virtually the only fuel used by the brain, except during prolonged starvation. Moreover, the glucose from glycogen is readily mobilized and is therefore a good source of energy for sudden, strenuous activity. Unlike fatty acids, the released glucose can provide energy in the absence of oxygen and can thus supply energy for anaerobic activity.
