Answer:
metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.
Explanation:
The four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing are metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.
i) Metals: Metals are solids made up of atoms held by matrix of electrons. They are good conductors of heat and electricity, ductile and strong.
ii) Composite: This is a combination of two or more materials. They have high strength to weight ratio, stiff, low conductivity. E.g are wood, concrete.
iii) Ceramics: They are inorganic, non-metallic crystalline compounds with high hardness and strength as well as poor conductors of electricity and heat.
iv) Polymers: They have low weight and are poor conductors of electricity and heat
Answer:
a) the object floats
b) the object floats
c) the object sinks
Explanation:
when an object is less dense than in the fluid in which it is immersed, it will float due to its weight and volume characteristics, so to solve this problem we must find the mass and volume of each object in order to calculate the density and compare it with that of water
a)
volumen for a cube
V=L^3
L=1.53in=0.0388m
V=0.0388 ^3=5.8691x10^-5m^3=58.69ml
density=m/v
density=13.5g/58.69ml=0.23 g/ml
The wooden block floats because it is less dense than water
b)
m=111mg=0.111g
density=m/v
density=0.111g/0.296ml=0.375g/ml
the metal paperclip floats because it is less dense than water
c)
V=0.93cups=220.0271ml
m=0.88lb=399.1613g
Density=m/v
density=399.1613/220.027ml=1.8141g/ml
the apple sinks because it is denser than water
Answer:
Yes, it is possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa in a condenser that is being cooled by river water that is entering at 20 °C because this temperature (20 °C) of the external cooling water is less than the saturation temperature of steam which is which is 45.81 °C, and heated by a boiler; as a result of this condition, coupled with the assumption that the turbine, pump, and interconnecting tube are adiabatic, and the condenser exchanges its heat with the external cooling river water, it possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa.
I’m sure the answer is correct and it is below
“ A catapult works because energy can be converted from one type to another and transferred from one object to another. ... This energy is stored in the launching device as potential, or stored, energy. The catapult you are about to make uses elastic potential energy stored in a wooden stick as you bend it.”
