Answer:
Atlantis benefited from lessons learned in the construction and testing of Enterprise, Columbia and Challenger. ... The Experience gained during the Orbiter assembly process also enabled Atlantis to be completed with a 49.5 percent reduction in man hours (compared to Columbia).
Explanation:
Answer:
u_e = 9.3 * 10^-8 J / m^3 ( 2 sig. fig)
Explanation:
Given:
- Electric Field strength near earth's surface E = 145 V / m
- permittivity of free space (electric constant) e_o = 8.854 *10^-12 s^4 A^2 / m^3 kg
Find:
- How much energy is stored per cubic meter in this field?
Solution:
- The solution requires the energy density stored between earth's surface and the source of electric field strength. The formula for charge density is given by:
u_e = 0.5*e_o * E^2
- Plug in the values given:
u_e = 0.5*8.854 *10^-12 *145^2
u_e = 9.30777 * 10^-8 J/m^3

As a whistle-blower, one of your aim is to guide against unethical dealings of other people , hence you are creating an environment that uphold ethical conduct,
In addition, whistle-blowing will disclose all imminent dangers to the software community thereby preventing security breaches.
Answer:
Among the different types of excavation protection system, as a way of preventing accidents against cave-ins, the sloping involves cutting back the trench wall at an angle inclined away from the excavation. Shoring requires installing aluminum hydraulic or other types of supports to prevent soil movement and cave-ins. Shielding protects workers by using trench boxes or other types of supports to prevent soil cave-ins (OSHA). In addition, the regulations do not allow employees to work on excavations where there is an accumulation of water. If this occurs, water on the site must be constantly removed by suitable equipment preventing water from accumulating. The entry of surface water into the excavations must also be prevented by means of diversion ditches, dam, or other suitable means.
Explanation:
Answer:
b. The pirating streams are eroding headwardly to intersect more of the other streams’ drainage basins, causing water to be diverted down their steeper gradients.
Explanation:
From the Kaaterskill NY 15 minute map (1906), this shows two classic examples of stream capture.
The Kaaterskill Creek flow down the east relatively steep slopes into the Hudson River Valley. While, the Gooseberry Creek is a low gradient stream flowing down the west direction which in turn drains the higher parts of the Catskills in this area.
However, there is Headward erosion of Kaaterskill Creek which resulted to the capture of part of the headwaters of Gooseberry Creek.
The evidence for this is the presence of "barbed" (enters at obtuse rather than acute angle) tributary which enters Kaaterskill Creek from South Lake which was once a part of the Gooseberry Creek drainage system.
It should be noted again, that there is drainage divide between the Gooseberry and Kaaterskill drainage systems (just to the left of the word Twilight) which is located in the center of the valley.
As it progresses, this divide will then move westward as Kaaterskill captures more and more of the Gooseberry system.
