Answer:
44.95 tonnes
Explanation:
According to principle of buoyancy the object will just sink when it's weight is more than the weight of the liquid it displaces
It is given that empty weight of box = 40 tons
Let the mass of the stones to be placed be = M tonnes
Thus the combined mass of box and stones = (40+M) tonnes..........(i)
Since the box will displace water equal to it's volume V we have 

Now the weight of water displaced =
is density of water = 1000kg/
Thus weight of liquid displaced =
..................(ii)
Equating i and ii we get
40 + M = 84.95
thus Mass of stones = 44.95 tonnes
Answer:
correct option is (A) 0.5
Explanation:
given data
axial column load = 250 kN per meter
footing placed = 0.5 m
cohesion = 25 kPa
internal friction angle = 5°
solution
we know angle of internal friction is 5° that is near to 0°
so it means the soil is almost cohesive soil.
and for a pure cohesive soil
= 0
and we know formula for
is
= (Nq - 1 ) × tan(Ф) ..................1
so here Ф is very less
should be nearest to zero
and its value can be 0.5
so correct option is (A) 0.5
Answer:
Ammonia gas a hazardous gas to our health, when we are exposed to it for a long time. The gas is lighter than air, that means it's high concentration may not be noticed at the point of leakage, because it flows with the wind direction. Ammonia gas detector are used to determine the concentration of the gas at a particular place. We can use the dispersion modelling software program to know the exact position, where we can place the gas detector, which would be where evacuation is needed.
During evacuation, when the concentration of the gas has increased, a self-contained breathing apparatus should be used for breathing, and an encapsulated suit should be worn to prevent ammonia from reacting with our sweat or any other chemical burn. A mechanic ventilation will also be needed in the place of evacuation, so that the ammonia concentration in that area can be dispersed.
