A rectangular open box, 25 ft by 10 ft in plan and 12 ft deep weighs 40 tons. Sufficient amount of stones is placed in the box a
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

44.95 tonnes

Explanation:

According to principle of buoyancy the object will just sink when it's weight is more than the weight of the liquid it displaces

It is given that empty weight of box = 40 tons

Let the mass of the stones to be placed be = M tonnes

Thus the combined mass of box and stones = (40+M) tonnes..........(i)

Since the box will displace water equal to it's volume V we have volume of box = 25ft*10ft*12ft= 3000ft^{3}

Volume= 84.95m^{3}

Since 1ft^{3} =0.028m^{3}

Now the weight of water displaced = Weight =\rho \times Volumewhererho is density of water = 1000kg/m^{3}

Thus weight of liquid displaced = \frac{84.95X1000}{1000}tonnes=84.95 tonnes..................(ii)

Equating i and ii we get

40 + M = 84.95

thus Mass of stones = 44.95 tonnes

An engineering firm just lost one of their larger customers. The firm president says that the solution to this problem is to fir
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The engineers disagreed because their jobs were on the line

The ethical factors are:

The reason for the customer dumping the business is yet to be figured out

The need to keep cost to the lowest ebb in order to keep maintain profitability at the expense of employees' welfare

The are several ways of growing customer base which  are yet to be exploited.

Explanation:

The engineers disagree because there is no direct connection between the company's loss of the customer and their proposed layoff of the engineers,at least no one strong evidence has been given by the president.

The ethical factors inherent in this case are as follows:

The reason for the customer dumping the business is yet to be figure out

The need to keep cost to the lowest ebb in order to keep maintain profitability.

The are several ways of growing customer base which  are yet to be exploited.

There is  a need for a fact-finding exercise to establish the main motive behind losing such customer,without which the company can run into more troubles in future,otherwise the company would keep firing its good hands each time a customer dumps it.

Also,the president had resulted into such decision in order to maintain company's margins,where then lies ethics of welfare economics?Welfare economics is about looking beyond margins and looking at issues from a wider perspective of fulfilling the needs of employees in order for them to put in their best performance,at least by granting them job safety.

The company could have also grown business by investing in new technology that sets it apart from competitors instead of just jumping into the conclusions of sacking employees in a business where the company's strength lies in quality of engineers that it has.

A light bulb is switched on and within a few minutes its temperature becomes constant. Is it at equilibrium or steady state.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The temperature attains equilibrium with the surroundings.  

Explanation:

When the light bulb is lighted we know that it's temperature will go on increasing as the filament of the bulb has to  constantly dissipates energy during the time in which it is on. Now this energy is dissipated as heat as we know it, this heat energy is absorbed by the material of the bulb which is usually made up of glass, increasing it's temperature. Now we know that any object with temperature above absolute zero has to dissipate energy in form of radiations.

Thus we conclude that the bulb absorbs as well as dissipates it's absorbed thermal energy. we know that this rate is dependent on the temperature of the bulb thus it the temperature of the bulb does not change we can infer that an equilibrium has been reached in the above 2 processes i.e the rate of energy absorption equals the rate of energy dissipation.

Steady state is the condition when the condition does not change with time no matter whatever the surrounding conditions are.
