Answer:

Electrical conductivity or specific conductance is the reciprocal of electrical resistivity. It represents a material's ability to conduct electric current. It is commonly signified by the Greek letter σ (sigma), but κ (kappa) (especially in electrical engineering) and γ (gamma) are sometimes used.

While discussing what affects the amount of pressure exerted by the brakes: Technician A says that the shorter the line, the mor

harina [27]

Answer:

Only Technician B is right.

Explanation:

The cylindrical braking system for a car works through the mode of pressure transmission, that is, the pressure applied to the brake pedals, is transmitted to the brake pad through the cylindrical piston.

Pressure applied on the pedal, P(pedal) = P(pad)

And the Pressure is the applied force/area for either pad or pedal. That is, P(pad) = Force(pad)/A(pad) & P(pedal) = F(pedal)/A(pedal)

If the area of piston increases, A(pad) increases and the P(pad) drops, Meaning, the pressure transmitted to the pad reduces. And for most cars, there's a pressure limit for the braking system to work.

If the A(pad) increases, P(pad) decreases and the braking force applied has to increase, to counter balance the dropping pressure and raise it.

This whole setup does not depend on the length of the braking lines; it only depends on the applied force and cross sectional Area (size) of the piston.

1. The construction process begins with which of the following stages?

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

c) site preparation

Explanation:

A construction process can be defined as a series of important physical events (processes) that must be accomplished during the execution of a construction project.

Generally, in the construction of any physical asset such as offices, hospitals, schools, stadiums etc, the first step of the construction process is site preparation. Site preparation refers to processes such as clearing, blasting, levelling, landfilling, surveying, cutting, excavating and demolition of all unwanted objects on a piece of land, so as to make it ready for use.

This ultimately implies that, site preparation should be the first task to be accomplished in the construction process.

Hence, the construction process typically begins with site preparation before other activities such as the laying of foundation can be done.

Additionally, construction costs can be defined as the overall costs associated with the development of a built asset, project or property. The construction costs is classified into two (2) main categories and these are; capital and operational costs.

A cylindrical drill with radius 4 is used to bore a hole through the center of a sphere of radius 5. Find the volume of the ring

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The volume of the ring shaped solid that remains is 21 unit^3.

Explanation:

The total volume of the sphere is given as:

Volume of Sphere = (4/3)πr^3

where, r = radius of sphere

Volume of Sphere = (4/3)(π)(5)^3

Volume of Sphere = 523.6 unit^3

Now, we find the volume of sphere removed by the drill:

Volume removed = (Cross-sectional Area of drill)(Diameter of Sphere)

Volume removed = (πr²)(D)

where, r = radius of drill = 4

D = diameter of sphere = 2*5 = 10

Therefore,

Volume removed = (π)(4)²(10)

Volume removed = 502.6 unit^3

Therefore, the volume of ring shaped solid that remains will be the difference between the total volume of sphere, and the volume removed.

Volume of Ring = Volume of Sphere - Volume removed

Volume of Ring = 523.6 - 502.6

<u>Volume of Ring = 21 unit^3</u>
