Answer:
a) W = 25.5 lbf
b) W = 150 lbf
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of astronaut = 150 lbm
local gravity = 5.48 ft/s^2
a) weight on spring scale
it can be calculated by measuring force against local gravitational force which is equal to weight of body
W = mg
b) As we know that beam scale calculated mass only therefore no change in mass due to variation in gravity
thus W= 150 lbf
Answer:
Logic NOR Gate Equivalent
The Boolean expression for a logic NOR gate is denoted by a plus sign, ( + ) with a line or Overline, ( ‾‾ ) over the expression to signify the NOT or logical negation of the NOR gate giving us the Boolean expression of: A+B = Q.
Answer: c. The VW engineers involved were ethically obligated to hold paramount the health, welfare and safety of the public even if their supervisors directed them to implement software and hardware that enabled cheating on the emissions testing software.
Explanation: The National Society of professional Engineers, NSPE define the code of ethics which must guide engineers in their duty. These codes act as principles of personal conduct, towards the public and their employers.
One of the areas covered by these codes is overriding importance of the safety and health of the public to any other factor. In addition, engineers are to avoid deception and maintain the reputation of their profession. These cannot be sacrificed for the financial gain of their employers or explained away by saying they are following the direction of their employers. While they have certain responsibilities to their employers, the health welfare and safety of the public is more important.
Answer: No
Explanation:
Length= 2cm= 20mm
Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.
It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm
Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.
