Answer:

R = 4.75 lb  (↑)

Explanation:

Number of books = n = 19

Weight of each book = W = 1 lb

Length of the bookshelf = L = 40 inches

We can get the value of the distributed load as follows

q = n*W/L = 19*1 lb/ 40 inches = 0.475 lb/in

then the reactions at 4 ends (supports) of the bookshelf are

R = (q/2)/2 = 4.75 lb

We can see the bookshelf in the pic.

A controller on an electronic arcade game consists of a variable resistor connected across the plates of a 0.227 μF capacitor. T
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

R min = 28.173 ohm

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm

Explanation:

given data

capacitor = 0.227 μF

charged to 5.03 V

potential difference across the plates =  0.833 V

handled effectively = 11.5 μs to 6.33 ms

solution

we know that resistance range of the resistor is express as

V(t) = V_o \times e^{t\RC}    ...........1

so R will be

R = \frac{t}{C\times ln(\frac{V_o}{V})}    ....................2

put here value

so for t min 11.5 μs

R = \frac{11.5}{0.227\times ln(\frac{5.03}{0.833})}

R min = 28.173 ohm

and

for t max 6.33 ms

R max = \frac{6.33}{11.5} \times 28.173  

R max = 1.55 × 10^{4}  ohm

A 2-cm-diameter vertical water jet is injected upward by a nozzle at a speed of 15 m/s. Determine the maximum weight of a flat p
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:58.28 N

Explanation:

Given data

dia. of nozzle \left ( d\right )=2 cm

initial velocity\left ( u\right )=15 m/s

height\left ( h\right )=2m

Now velocity of jet at height of 2m

v^2-u^2=2gh

v^2=15^2-2\left ( 9.81\right )\left ( 2\right )

v=\sqrt{185.76}=13.62 m/s

Now\ forces\ on\ plate\ are\ weight\left ( Downward\right ) and jet\ force\left ( upward\right )

equating them

W=\left ( \rho Av\right )v

W=10^{3}\times \frac{\pi}{4}\left ( 0.02\right )^2\times 13.62^2

W=58.28 N

What are the three elementary parts of a vibrating system?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

the three part are mass, spring, damping

Explanation:

vibrating system consist of three elementary system namely

1) Mass - it is a rigid body due to which system experience vibration and kinetic energy due to vibration is directly proportional to velocity of the body.

2) Spring -  the part that has elasticity and help to hold mass

3) Damping - this part considered to have zero mass and  zero elasticity.

Six forces act on a beam that forms part of a building's
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

<h2> FA = 13 kN </h2><h2>FG = 15.3 kN</h2>

Explanation:

write each force in terms of magnitude and directions  

Fx = F sin Ф

Fy = F cos Ф

where Ф is to be measured from x axis.

∑F at y = o

FAy + FBy + FCy + FDy + FEy + FGy = 0

∑F at x = o

FAx + FBx + FCx + FDx + FEx + FGx = 0

Let  

FA = FA sin (110)   +   FA cos (110)

FB = 20 sin (270)  +  20 cos (270)

FC = 16 sin (140)    +  16 cos (140)

FD = 9 sin (40)       +  9 cos (40)

FE = 20 sin (270)    +  20 cos (270)

FG = FG sin (50)     +  FG cos (50)

add x and y forces:

FAx + FBx + FCx + FDx + FEx + FGx = 0

FAy + FBy + FCy + FDy + FEy + FGy = 0

FA sin (110)  + 0  + 16 sin (140)  + 9 sin (40)  + 0   + FG sin (50) = 0

FA cos (110) - 20 + 16 cos (140) + 9 cos (40) - 20 + FG cos (50 = 0

FA sin (110)  + 0  + 10.285  + 5.785  + 0   + FG sin (50) = 0

FA cos (110) - 20 - 12.257 + 6.894 - 20 + FG cos (50) = 0

FA sin (110)  + 16.070 + FG sin (50) = 0        

FA cos (110) - 45.363 + FG cos (50) = 0

solving for FA, and FG

FA = 13 kN

FG = 15.3 kN
