Native Americans who used spears to hunt were using wedges. In the third century BC, the Greek scientist Archimedes invented a way to lift water, called the Archimedes screw. It was used to water crops and to move water out of ships.

Answer:The idea of a simple machine originated with the Greek philosopher Archimedes around the 3rd century BC, who studied the Archimedean simple machines: lever, pulley, and screw. He discovered the principle of mechanical advantage in the lever.

According to fire regulations in a town, the pressure drop in a commercial steel, horizontal pipe must not exceed 2.0 psi per 25
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

6.37 inch

Explanation:

Thinking process:

We need to know the flow rate of the fluid through the cross sectional pipe. Let this rate be denoted by Q.

To determine the pressure drop in the pipe:

Using the Bernoulli equation for mass conservation:

\frac{P1}{\rho } + \frac{v_{2} }{2g} +z_{1}  = \frac{P2}{\rho } + \frac{v2^{2} }{2g} + z_{2} + f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}

thus

\frac{P1-P2}{\rho }  = f\frac{l}{D} \frac{v^{2} }{2g}

The largest pressure drop (P1-P2) will occur with the largest f, which occurs with the smallest Reynolds number, Re or the largest V.

Since the viscosity of the water increases with temperature decrease, we consider coldest case at T = 50⁰F

from the tables

Re= 2.01 × 10⁵

Hence, f = 0.018

Therefore, pressure drop, (P1-P2)/p = 2.70 ft

This occurs at ae presure change of 1.17 psi

Correlating with the chart, we find that the diameter will be D= 0.513

                                                                                                      = <u>6.37 in Ans</u>

Calculate the radius of gyration for a bar of rectangular cross section with thickness t and width w for bending in the directio
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a)R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

Explanation:

Thickness = t

Width = w

Length od diagonal =sqrt (t² +w²)

Area of raectangle = A= tW

Radius of gyration= r= sqrt( I/A)

a)

Moment of inertia in the direction of thickness I = w t³/12

R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)

Moment of inertia in the direction of width I = t w³/12

R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)

Moment of inertia in the direction of diagonal I= (w t³/12)cos 45=( wt³/12)x 1/sqrt (2)

R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.
