Answer:

Prevent electrical shock

Grounding is a non current carrying conductor mainly used to guard against hazards due to leakage in electric circuits

Explanation:

The grounding refers to the connection of an electrical equipment exposed metallic parts to the ground to serve as a source of current flow in the event of an insulation failure will cause the fuses to trip thereby isolating or removing electric power from the device

Grounding also prevents the accumulation of static electricity which can be a source of fire in inflammable areas.

What is the term for removing refrigerant in any condition from a system and storing it in an external container without necessa

Vlad [161]

Answer:

The term you are looking for is recovery. The process of recovering refrigerant is to remove some or all the refrigerants of a system and deposit it in an external storing for further processing or storage. This recovered refrigerant won´t be used again in the system in any near time period.

If the refrigerant is removed to be instantly processed and cleaned to be reutilized in the same system, this action is known as recycling.

If the bolt head and the supporting bracket are made of the same material having a failure shear stress of 'Tra;i = 120 MPa, det

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

P=361.91 KN

Explanation:

given data:

brackets and head of the screw are made of material with T_fail=120 Mpa

safety factor is F.S=2.5

maximum value of force P=??

solution:

to find the shear stress

T_allow=T_fail/F.S

=120 Mpa/2.5

=48 Mpa

we know that,

V=P

Area for shear head:

A(head)=π×d×t

=π×0.04×0.075

=0.003×πm^2

Area for plate:

A(plate)=π×d×t

=π×0.08×0.03

=0.0024×πm^2

now we have to find shear stress for both head and plate

For head:

T_allow=V/A(head)

48 Mpa=P/0.003×π ..(V=P)

P =48 Mpa×0.003×π

=452.16 KN

For plate:

T_allow=V/A(plate)

48 Mpa=P/0.0024×π ..(V=P)

P =48 Mpa×0.0024×π

=361.91 KN

the boundary load is obtained as the minimum value of force P for all three cases. so the solution is

P=361.91 KN

A bar having a length of 5 in. and cross-sectional area of 0. 7 in.2 is subjected to an axial force of 8000 lb. If the bar stret

The modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi

Explanation:

Given -

Length, l = 5in

Force, P = 8000lb

Area, A = 0.7in²

δ = 0.002in

Modulus of elasticity, E = ?

We know,

Modulus of elasticity, E = σ / ε

Where,

σ is normal stress

ε is normal strain

Normal stress can be calculated as:

σ = P/A

Where,

P is the force applied

A is the area of cross-section

By plugging in the values, we get

σ = $\frac{8000 X 10^-^3}{0.7}$

σ = 11.43ksi

To calculate the normal strain we use the formula,

ε = δ / L

By plugging in the values we get,

ε = $\frac{0.002}{5}$

ε = 0.0004 in/in

Therefore, modulus of elasticity would be:

$E = \frac{11.43}{0.004} \\\\E = 28.6 X 10^3 ksi$

Thus, modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi
