Historically, the introduction of technology has caused profound changes in the labor market and, temporarily at least, displace

d people from jobs. Discuss whether the introduction of extensive process automation is likely to have the same consequences for software engineers. If you don’t think it will, explain why not. If you think that it will reduce job opportunities, is it ethical for the engineers affected to passively or actively resist the introduction of this technology?

Technological advancement and the need for humanity to obtain faster and more efficient processes in all social sectors has caused a strong automation of several jobs that were previously done manually, by workers. The automation of these services, allows a faster, but efficient, more standardized and more economical production. This has hindered the entry of workers into the productive sector, causing major layoffs, competitions and wage cuts. Agricultural countries, such as Brazil, for example, even replace about 300 workers, with only one harvester machine, controlled by software and only one driver. This scenario is worrying for workers, but this only tends to grow and become more and more common in our society.

However, this substitution of human labor for automation is a reality for manual and manual labor, which is not the case for software engineering. Software engineering works with the creation, monitoring, specification and development of software (which are used in automation, including). These processes need to be carried out by human hands, which shows that automation will not negatively affect software engineers, at least at the moment we live in today.

Why do we care about a material's ability to resist torsional deformation?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

(A) Because the angle of twist of a material is often used to predict its shear toughness

Explanation:

In engineering, torsion is the solicitation that occurs when a moment is applied on the longitudinal axis of a construction element or mechanical prism, such as axes or, in general, elements where one dimension predominates over the other two, although it is possible to find it in diverse situations.

The torsion is characterized geometrically because any curve parallel to the axis of the piece is no longer contained in the plane initially formed by the two curves. Instead, a curve parallel to the axis is twisted around it.

The general study of torsion is complicated because under that type of solicitation the cross section of a piece in general is characterized by two phenomena:

1- Tangential tensions appear parallel to the cross section.

2- When the previous tensions are not properly distributed, which always happens unless the section has circular symmetry, sectional warps appear that make the deformed cross sections not flat.

D. projectile
Colt1911 [192]
Answer: parabola

Explanation:

•Parabolic Trajectory:

In conclusion, projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the fact that the downward force of gravity accelerates them downward from their otherwise straight-line, gravity-free trajectory.

Advantage of a sheave wheel in a shaft headgear<br>​
NikAS [45]

Answer:

sorry if wrong

Explanation:

One sheave means that you are using a single drum winder. They are the worst! Double drum winders control easier, brake better and are much more efficient. They save time ( two skips or cages) and can be clutched to perform faster shift transport. A single drum is slow, unbalanced and can be a nightmare if it trips out during hoisting. If the brake system is not perfect it can be a real hairy experience. For a runaway single drum, there is no counterbalance effect. It always runs to destruction. With a double drum, the driver still has a chance to control the winder to a certain extent and he has two sets of brakes to rely on. A single sheave could also mean a shaft with a single compartment. No second means of escape unless there are ladders or stairways. Not a very healthy situation.

Those are just a few points. I am sure much more can be said in favor of a double drum winder and two or more sheaves in the headgear. Most of the shafts I have worked at have multiple winders and up to ten compartments. They all have a small single drum service winder for emergencies and moves of personnel during shift times. They are referred to as the Mary - Annes. Apparently, the name originated in the U.K. where an aristocratic mine owner named the first such winder after his mistress.
