Taya2010 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer is letter c, risk.

Explanation:

Risk <em>refers to the potential loss that a person may encounter for a specific action he chose.</em> This loss is considered <u>uncontrollable.</u> There are several kinds of risks according to different practice areas. These are: <em>Economic Risk, Insurance Risk, Security Risk, Finance Risk, Health Risk and the like.</em>

Example, when it comes to hospital setting, a nurse may encounter risks in providing care to his patient. If her patient has Tuberculosis (TB), then she is at risk of contracting the disease because of her exposure to the patient. Tuberculosis can be contracted through the air. Thus, the probability for the nurse to acquire the disease is high.

Thus, this explains the answer.

A 40 mph wind is blowing past your house and speeds up as it flows up and over the roof. If the elevation effects are negligible
Finger [1]

The pressure at the point on the roof where the speed is 60mph is 14.66 psi

<u>Explanation:</u>

The question follows Bernoulli's equation

P1 + 1/2 ρ V1² = P2 + 1/2 ρ V2²

V1 = 40 X 5280 / 3600 = 58.7 ft/s

V2 = 60 X 5280 / 3600 = 88 ft/s

P2 = P1 + 1/2 ( 0.00238 ) [(58.7)² - (88)²]

P2 - P1 = -5.12lb/ft²

The negative pressure created tends to lift the roof.

We know,

P1 = 14.7 psi = 2116.8 lb/ft²

P2 = 2116.8 - 5.12 lb/ft²

P2 = 2111.68 lb/ft²

P2 = 14.66 psi

Therefore, the pressure at the point on the roof where the speed is 60mph is 14.66 psi

A thick casting with a thermal diffusivity of 5 x 10-6 m2/s is initially at a uniform temperature of 150oC. One surface of the c
fredd [130]

Answer:

T_o = 141.81 ^0C

Explanation:

Given that;

Thermal diffusivity \alpha = 5 \times 10 ^{-6} m^2/s

Thermal conductivity k = 20 \ W/m.K

Heat transfer coefficient h = ( we are to assume the imposed surface temperature ) = 20 W/m².K

Initial temperature = 150 ° C = (150+273) K = 423 K

Then coolant temperature with which the casting is exposed to = 20° C = (20+273)K = 293 K

Time = 40 seconds

Length = 20mm = 0.02 m

The objective is to determine the  temperature at the surface  at a depth of 20 mm after 40 seconds.

Bi = \dfrac{hL}{k}

Bi = \dfrac{20*0.02}{20}

Bi == 0.02

\tau = \dfrac{\alpha t}{L^2}

\tau=  \dfrac{5*10^{-6 }* 40}{0.020^2}

\tau = 0.5

For a wall at 0.2 Bi

A_1 = 1.0311

\lambda _1 = 0.4328

Therefore;

\dfrac{T_o - T_{\infty}}{T_i - T_{\infty}}= A_1 e ^{-( \lambda_1^2 \ \tau)

\dfrac{T_o - 293 }{423 - 293}= 1.0311 \times e ^{-( 0.438^2 \times 0.5 )

\dfrac{T_o - 293 }{423 - 293}= 1.0311 \times e ^{-( 0.0959 )

\dfrac{T_o - 293 }{130}= 1.0311 \times 0.9085

\dfrac{T_o - 293 }{130}= 0.937

T_o - 293= 0.937 \times 130

T_o - 293= 121.81

T_o = 121.81+ 293

T_o = 414.81 \ K

T_o = (414.81 - 273)^0C

T_o = 141.81 ^0C

You are adjusting pH in the fed-batch bioreactor using a 1.5 Molar solution of Ca(OH)2 (Assume that in given conditions the base
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Final osmolarity = 866 mOsm

Explanation:

Starting cell culture medium = 320 mOsm

30 mL of 1600 mM NaOH into 1 L= (30 mL/1000) x 1600 = 48 mM

Osmolarity = osmoles / 1 L = (Mole x equivalent) / L = 48 x 2 = 96 mOsm

Feed solution = (300 mL / 1000 mL) 1500 mOsm = 450 mOsm

Total osmolarity = 320 + 96 + 450 = 866 mOsm

Hope this helps!

Answer the following either true (T) or false (F) (5 pts)
likoan [24]

Answer:

1. True

2. True

3. False

Explanation:

The office location is where the soil layer is not uniform. The thickness of the soil varies which could lead to doors being jammed. The engineer needs to estimate the differential in clay soil.

The inclined surface can hold less weight than a vertical surface. The capacity to hold the weight is due to the gravitational force which is exerted to the load.
