Drip irrigation

Drip irrigation is one of the most efficient types of irrigation systems. The efficiency of applied and lost water as well as meeting the crop water need ranges from 80% to 90%

The density of a certain type of steel is 8.1 g/cm3. What is the mass of a 100 cm3 chunk of this steel

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

810 g

Explanation:

Mass is the product of density and volume:

m = ρV

m = (8.1 g/cm³)(100 cm³) = 810 g

The mass of the chunk is 810 grams.

Primary Creep: slope (creep rate) decreases with time

Igoryamba

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Creep is known as the time dependent deformation of structure due to constant load acting on the body.

Creep is generally seen at high temperature.

Due to creep the length of the structure increases which is not fit for serviceability purpose.

When time passes structure gain strength as the structure strength increases with time so creep tends to decrease.

When we talk about Creep rate for new structure the creep will be more than the old structure i.e. the creep rate decreases with time.

A rich industrialist was found murdered in his house. The police arrived at the scene at 11:00 PM. The temperature of the corpse

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The dude was killed around 6:30PM

Explanation:

Newton's law of cooling states:

$T = T_m + (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}$

where,

$T_0$ = initial temp

$T_m$ = temp of room

$T$ = temp after t hours

$k$ = how fast the temp is changing

$t$ = time (hours)

$T_0 = 31$ because the body was initlally 31ºC when the police found it

$T_m = 22$ because that was the room temp

$T = 30$ because the body temp drop to 30ºC after 1 hour

t = 1 because that's the time it took for the body temp to drop to 30ºC

$k=???$ we don't know k so we must solve for this

rearrange the equation to solve for k

$T = T_m + (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}$

$T - T_m= (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}$

$\frac{T - T_m}{(T_0-T_m)}= e^{kt}$

$ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})=kt$

$\frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{t}=k$

plug in the numbers to solve for k

$k = \frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{t}$

$k = \frac{ln(\frac{30 - 22}{31-22})}{1}$

$k=ln(\frac{8}{9})$

Now that we know the value for k, we can find the moment the murder occur. A crucial information that the question left out is the temperature of a human body when they're still alive. A living human body is about 37ºC. We can use that as out initial temperature to solve this problem because we can assume that the freshly killed body will be around 37ºC.

$T_0 = 37$ because the body was 37ºC right after being killed
