A wood pole with a diameter of 10 in. has a moisture content of 5%. The fiber saturation point (FSP) for this wood is 30%. The w

ood shrinks or swells 1% (relative to the green dimensions) in the radial direction for every 5% change in moisture content below FSP. a. What would be the percent change in the wood's diameter if the wood's moisture is increased to 55%? b. Would the wood swell or shrink? c. What would be the new diameter?

Answer:

a) Δd(change in wood diameter) = 5%

b) The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter

C) new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in

Explanation:

Wood pole diameter = 10 inches

moisture content = 5%

FSP = 30%

A) The percentage change in the wood's diameter

note : moisture fluctuations from 5% to 30% causes dimensional changes in the wood but above 30% up to 55% causes no change. hence this formula can be used to calculate percentage change in the wood's diameter

Δd/d = 1/5(30 - 5)

Δd/d = 5%  

Δd = 5%

B) would the wood swell or shrink

The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter

C) The new diameter of the wood

D2 = D + D( \frac{M1}{100} )

D = initial diameter= 10 in , M1 = initial moisture content = 5%

therefore D2 = 10 + 10( 5/100 )

new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Companies are combining their online business activities with their existing physical presence in order to lower costs of their operations. When both these things are combined labor costs are reduced because with online presence the company has to have limited number of branches, inventory costs are reduced because additional inventories for every physical outlet is not required and delivery costs are reduced because now company don't have to supply the things to all the outlets on regular basis.

Trust of the people is also improved because mostly people are reluctant to order from the brands that only have their online store and donot have any physical presence. Value added services are provided by a company who have both online and offline presence like home delivery and customized offerings.
