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.

A total of 245 kip force is applied to a set of 10 similar bolts. If the spring constant of each bolt is 0.4 Mlb/in and that of
zubka84 [21]

Answer: The net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip

Explanation:

Given that;

External load applied = 245 kip

number of bolts n = 10

External Load shared by each bolt (P_E) = 245/10 = 24.5 kip

spring constant of the bolt Kb = 0.4 Mlb/in

spring constant of members Kc = 1.6 Mlb/in

combined stiffness factor C = Kb / (kb+kc) = 0.4 / ( 0.4 + 1.6)  = 0.4 / 2 = 0.2 Mlb/in

Initial pre load Pi = 40 kip

now for Bolts; both pre load Pi and external load P_E are tensile in nature, therefore we add both of them

External Load on each bolt P_Eb = C × PE = 0.2 × 24.5 = 4.9 kip

So Total net Force on each bolt Fb = P_Eb + Pi

Fb = 4.9 kip + 40 kip

Fb = 44.9 kip

Therefore the net force in every bolt is 44.9 kip

Answer:

The Euler buckling load of a 160-cm-long column will be 1.33 times the Euler buckling load of an equivalent 120-cm-long column.

Explanation:

160 - 120 = 40

120 = 100

40 = X

40 x 100 / 120 = X

4000 / 120 = X

33.333 = X

120 = 100

160 = X

160 x 100 /120 = X

16000 / 120 = X

133.333 = X

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The question is not complete. We are supposed to find the average value of v_o.

Answer:

v_o,avg = 0.441V

Explanation:

Let t1 and t2 be the start and stop times of the output waveforms. Thus, from the diagram i attached, using similar triangles, we have;

3/(T/4) = 0.7/t1

So, 12/T = 0.7/t1

So, t1 = 0.7T/12

t1 = 0.0583 T

Also, from symmetry of triangles,

t2 = T/2 - t1

So, t2 = T/2 - 0.0583 T

t2 = 0.4417T

Average of voltage output is;

v_o,avg = (1/T) x Area under small triangle

v_o,avg = (1/T) x (3 - 0.7) x (T/4 - t1)

v_o,avg = (1/T) x (2.3) x (T/4 - 0.0583 T)

v_o,avg = (1/T) x 2.3 x 0.1917T

T will cancel out to give;

v_o,avg = 0.441V
