Looking back, I was sure that I was going to die that November afternoon. Tornado watches in Alabama are as common as eggs are f

or breakfast. So much so, that I had begun to ignore them altogether. This disregard for Mother Nature’s power nearly proved fatal for me and my sister. As we approached a fresh red light on a main thoroughfare through Huntsville, I glanced at the sudden peculiar coloring of the sky. The unusual hue and the stillness of the air gave me a sudden sense of uneasiness. The light changed and we made the left turn that would lead us home. It was after the turn that everything around me seemed to be occurring in slow motion.

Describe in your own words the three strengthening mechanisms
TEA [102]

Answer:

a) Decreasing grain size decreases the amount of possible pile up at the boundary, increasing the amount of applied stress necessary to move a dislocation across a grain boundary. ... Grain sizes can range from about 100 μm (0.0039 in) (large grains) to 1 μm (3.9×10−5 in) (small grains).

b) Solid solution strengthening is a type of alloying that can be used to improve the strength of a pure metal. The technique works by adding atoms of one element (the alloying element) to the crystalline lattice of another element (the base metal), forming a solid solution.

c) Work hardening, also known as strain hardening, is the strengthening of a metal or polymer by plastic deformation. ... This strengthening occurs because of dislocation movements and dislocation generation within the crystal structure of the material.

Air flows at 45m/s through a right angle pipe bend with a constant diameter of 2cm. What is the overall force required to keep t
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

b)1.08 N

Explanation:

Given that

velocity of air V= 45 m/s

Diameter of pipe = 2 cm

Force exerted by fluid  F

F=\rho AV^2

So force exerted in x-direction

F_x=\rho AV^2

F_x=1.2\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.02^2\times 45^2

F=0.763 N

So force exerted in y-direction

F_y=\rho AV^2

F_y=1.2\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.02^2\times 45^2

F=0.763 N

So the resultant force R

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

R=\sqrt{0.763^2+0.763^2}

R=1.079

So the force required to hold the pipe is 1.08 N.

Many companies are combining their online business activities with an existing physical presence. In about 100 words, explain wh
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Companies are combining their online business activities with their existing physical presence in order to lower costs of their operations. When both these things are combined labor costs are reduced because with online presence the company has to have limited number of branches, inventory costs are reduced because additional inventories for every physical outlet is not required and delivery costs are reduced because now company don't have to supply the things to all the outlets on regular basis.

Trust of the people is also improved because mostly people are reluctant to order from the brands that only have their online store and donot have any physical presence. Value added services are provided by a company who have both online and offline presence like home delivery and customized offerings.
