1 answer:

3 0

<span>The earth gets most of its energy from the sun. The answer is letter B. This is because most of the living organisms on earth need sunlight to perform activities that would balance the ecosystem. Sunlight is the reason for the climate system on earth, the production of food through cellular respiration and many more.</span>

A 50 mm diameter steel shaft and a 100 mm long steel cylindrical bushing with an outer diameter of 70 mm have been incorrectly s

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The axial force is $P = 15.93 k N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter of the shaft steel is $d = 50mm$

The length of the cylindrical bushing $L =100mm$

The outer diameter of the cylindrical bushing is $D = 70 \ mm$

The diametral interference is $\delta _d = 0.005 mm$

The coefficient of friction is $\mu = 0.2$

The Young modulus of steel is $207 *10^{3} MPa (N/mm^2)$

The diametral interference is mathematically represented as

$\delta_d = \frac{2 *d * P_B * D^2}{E (D^2 -d^2)}$

Where $P_B$ is the pressure (stress) on the two object held together

So making $P_B$ the subject

$P_B = \frac{\delta _d E (D^2 - d^2)}{2 * d* D^2}$

Substituting values

$P_B = \frac{(0.005) (207 *10^{3} ) * (70^2 - 50^2))}{2 * (50) (70) ^2 }$

$P_B = 5.069 MPa$

Now he axial force required is

$P = \mu * P_B * A$

Where A is the area which is mathematically evaluated as

$\pi d l$

So $P = \mu P_B \pi d l$

Substituting values

$P = 0.2 * 5.069 * 3.142 * 50 * 100$

$P = 15.93 k N$

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 264- cm -long string that is fixed at both ends

miv72 [106K]

The three longest wavelengths for the standing waves on a 264-cm long string that is fixed at both ends are:

5.2 meters.
2.6 meters.
1.7meters.

Given data:

Length of the fixed string = 264cms = 2.64 meters

The wavelength for standing waves is given by:

λ = 2L/n

where,

λ is the wavelength
L is the length of the string

For n = 1,

λ = 2×2.6/1

= 5.2 meters

For n = 2,

λ = 2×2.6/2

= 2.6 meters

For n = 3,

λ = 2×2.6/3

= 1.7 meters

What conditions are typcial of the soil the deeper we dig into it?

Tems11 [23]

When we first dig into soil, it's nice and soft.( Depending on what soil it is; usually topsoil)

But when we go deeper into it, there are rocks and the soil is harder. There is bedrock at the bottom, subsoil in the middle, and topsoil at the top, which is where we walk.

At its maximum speed, a typical snail moves about 4.0 m in 5.0 min.

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance = 4.0m

Time = 5.0 mins = 300secs

Required

Average speed

Average speed = Distance/Time

Average speed = 4.0/300

Average speed = 0.01333m/secs

Hence the average speed of the snail is 0.01333m/s
