The Hoover Dam is 221 m tall and 379 m wide. Approximating it as a flat plate, determine the effective resultant force on the da

m and where it acts. What is the gage pressure at the bottom of the dam? Assume water has a constant density of 1000 kg m^3 .

You want to find all files on your server that have either the SGID or SUID permission set. Which command should you use to obta

aalyn [17]

Answer:

For SGID you type this

$ find . -perm /4000

For SUID you type this

$ find . -perm /2000

Explanation:

Auxiliary file permissions, that are commonly referred to as “special permissions” in Linux are needed in order to easily find files which have SUID (Setuid) and SGID (Setgid) set.

After typing

$ find directory -perm /permissions

Then type the commands in the attachment below to obtain a list of these files with SGID and SUID.

The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁ and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0 (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º - F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒ Nef*Cos 12º - (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒ Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒ P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒ P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.

For a fluid with a Prandtl Number of 1000.0, the hydrodynamic layer is thinner than the thermal boundary layers. a) True b) Fals

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

(b)False

Explanation:

Given:

Prandtl number(Pr) =1000.

We know that $Pr=\dfrac{\nu }{\alpha }$

Where $\nu$ is the molecular diffusivity of momentum

$\alpha$ is the molecular diffusivity of heat.

Prandtl number(Pr) can also be defined as

$Pr=\left (\dfrac{\delta }{\delta _t}\right )^3$

Where $\delta$ is the hydrodynamic boundary layer thickness and $\delta_t$ is the thermal boundary layer thickness.

So if Pr>1 then hydrodynamic boundary layer thickness will be greater than thermal boundary layer thickness.

In given question Pr>1 so hydrodynamic boundary layer thickness will be greater than thermal boundary layer thickness.

So hydrodynamic layer will be thicker than the thermal boundary layer.

A 60-cm-high, 40-cm-diameter cylindrical water tank is being transported on a level road. The highest acceleration anticipated i

dlinn [17]

Answer:

$h_{max} = 51.8 cm$

Explanation:

given data:

height of tank = 60cm

diameter of tank =40cm

accelration = 4 m/s2

suppose x- axis - direction of motion

z -axis - vertical direction

$\theta$ = water surface angle with horizontal surface

$a_x =$ accelration in x direction

$a_z =$ accelration in z direction

slope in xz plane is

$tan\theta = \frac{a_x}{g +a_z}$

$tan\theta = \frac{4}{9.81+0}$

$tan\theta =0.4077$

the maximum height of water surface at mid of inclination is

$\Delta h = \frac{d}{2} tan\theta$

$=\frac{0.4}{2}0.4077$

$\Delta h 0.082 cm$

the maximu height of wwater to avoid spilling is

$h_{max} = h_{tank} -\Delta h$

= 60 - 8.2

$h_{max} = 51.8 cm$

the height requird if no spill water is $h_{max} = 51.8 cm$
