Answer:

The cost of increased rates of accidents/injuries due to road accidents associated with cycling.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is referred to as an alternative cost which is the value of the other choose left out while settling for a better alternative. External cost will be the cost a society has to bear as a result of a private cost. A successful biking company in a community can led to increased rates of accidents due to road accidents associated with cycling. In addition, the society will have to bear the costs of the threats presented by dangerous car drivers who posse more danger to cyclists as compared to trucks/car drivers.

Based on the pattern, what are the next two terms of the sequence? 9,94,916,964,9256,... A. 91024,94096 B. 9260,91028 C. 9260,92

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The answer is "Option A".

Explanation:

Series:

$9, 94, 916, 964, 9256, ........$

Solving the above series:

$\to 9\\ \to 9(4) =94\\\to 9 (4^2) = 9(16) =916\\\to 9 (4^3) = 9(64) =964\\\to 9 (4^4) = 9(256) =9256\\\to 9 (4^5) = 9(1024) =91024\\\to 9 (4^6) = 9(4096) =94096\\$

So, the series is: $9, 94, 916, 964, 9256, 91024, 94096, .................$

An open vat in a food processing plant contains 500 L of water at 20°C and atmospheric pressure. If the water is heated to 80°C,

tester [92]

Answer:

percentage change in volume is 2.60%

water level rise is 4.138 mm

Explanation:

given data

volume of water V = 500 L

temperature T1 = 20°C

temperature T2 = 80°C

vat diameter = 2 m

to find out

percentage change in volume and how much water level rise

solution

we will apply here bulk modulus equation that is ratio of change in pressure to rate of change of volume to change of pressure

and we know that is also in term of change in density also

E = $-\frac{dp}{dV/V}$ ................1

And $-\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{d\rho}{\rho}$ ............2

here ρ is density

and we know ρ for 20°C = 998 kg/m³

and ρ for 80°C = 972 kg/m³

so from equation 2 put all value

$-\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{d\rho}{\rho}$

$-\frac{dV}{500*10^{-3} } = \frac{972-998}{998}$

dV = 0.0130 m³

so now % change in volume will be

dV % = $-\frac{dV}{V}$ × 100

dV % = $-\frac{0.0130}{500*10^{-3} }$ × 100

dV % = 2.60 %

so percentage change in volume is 2.60%

and

initial volume v1 = $\frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*l(i)$ ................3

final volume v2 = $\frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*l(f)$ ................4

now from equation 3 and 4 , subtract v1 by v2

v2 - v1 = $\frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*(l(f)-l(i))$

dV = $\frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*dl$

put here all value

0.0130 = $\frac{\pi }{4} *2^2*dl$

dl = 0.004138 m

so water level rise is 4.138 mm

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a) the two-way concrete joist framing system

Explanation:

A waffle slab is also known as ribbed slab, it is a slab which as waffle like appearance with holes beneath. It is adopted in construction projects that has long length, length more than 12m. The waffle slab is rigid, therefore it is used in building that needs minimal vibration.
