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.

Answer:

Ammonia gas a hazardous gas to our health, when we are exposed to it for a long time. The gas is lighter than air, that means it's high concentration may not be noticed at the point of leakage, because it flows with the wind direction. Ammonia gas detector are used to determine the concentration of the gas at a particular place. We can use the dispersion modelling software program to know the exact position, where we can place the gas detector, which would be where evacuation is needed.

During evacuation, when the concentration of the gas has increased, a self-contained breathing apparatus should be used for breathing, and an encapsulated suit should be worn to prevent ammonia from reacting with our sweat or any other chemical burn. A mechanic ventilation will also be needed in the place of evacuation, so that the ammonia concentration in that area can be dispersed.
