Answer:

d. floor spans exceed that which is economical with site-cast or hollow-core slabs and exceed 60 feet.

Explanation:

Double tee slabs are prestressed concrete castings usually about 100 m to 150 m long. They are usually used in the construction industry in structures requiring a long floor span (or roof span) exceeding 60 feet in length, that is required to bear additional load (additional load carrying capability). Double tee slabs are usually employed in construction because they shorten construction time. reduce congestion at the construction site, and also reduce construction cost.

They are the required choice in construction when the cost of site casting or hollow-core slabs is no longer economical due to the length of the structure exceeding 60 feet.

An incompressible viscous fluid flows through a pipe with a flow rate of 1 mL/s. The pipe has a uniform diameter D0 and a length

Nataly [62]

Answer:

$Q_2 = 32$ mL/s

Explanation:

Given :

The flow is incompressible viscous flow.

The initial flow rate, $Q_1$ = 1 mL/s

Initial diameter, $D_1= D_0$

Initial length, $L_1=L_0$

The initial pressure difference to maintain the flow, $P_1=P_0$

We know for a viscous flow,

$\Delta P = \frac{32 \mu V L}{D^2}$

$\Delta P = \frac{32 \mu Q L}{\frac{\pi}{4}D^4}$

$Q \propto \Delta P \times D^4$

$\frac{Q_1}{Q_2}= \frac{P_1}{P_2} \times \left( \frac{D_1}{D_2} \right)^4$

$\frac{1}{Q_2}= \frac{P_0}{2P_0} \times \left( \frac{D_0}{2D_0} \right)^4$

$\frac{1}{Q_2}= \frac{1}{2} \times \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^4$

$\frac{1}{Q_2}= \frac{1}{32}$

∴ $Q_2 = 32$ mL/s

What should you use to keep battery terminals from corroding

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Apply battery-terminal grease to the terminals to help prevent corrosion. It's available at any auto parts store and usually comes in a little ketchup-like packet. Another great option is AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Metal Protector. It creates a protective coating on terminals that wards off corrosion.
