Answer:

Find explanation below.

Explanation:

Sustainable fishing and forestry practice are measures taken t ensure that the fishes and forests are preserved for future generations. Continuous lumbering and fishing can result to a depletion of these resources and in the worst scenario, their extinction. So it lies on both the fishers or lumberers and consumers to take preventive measures. As consumers of these resources we can help in solving these challenges by;

1. Limiting our consumption of these resources. We can seek alternatives to them as the case may be.

2. Secondly we should take our time to learn about these natural life and the dangers they face. This would help us in choosing sources that adhere to conservative practices.

Answer:

The reason why many sustainable fishing and forestry practice depend on the actions of consumers like me is:

<u>The offer is aimed at satisfying the demand for these products</u>.

Explanation:

Sustainable fishing and forestry are based on allowing future generations to access the same products that we currently have, for this reason, a sustainable fishing practice can be waiting for fish to reproduce, in order to not to overexploit them and thus to extinguish them, however, as mentioned in the answer, the offer is aimed at satisfying the demand, therefore, <u>if consumers like me demand sea products even though they are not in the breeding season or without providing the time for the ecosystem to recover the extracted products, the supply will be forced to supply the demand despite the extinction of a species; The same applies to sustainable forestry, if they carry out reforestation work on wood products in proportions 10-1 (10 plants planted for each tree cut) or higher, but the consumer does not provide the prudent time to obtain wood products again, the indiscriminate felling in order to supply the product required by the consumer</u>.

Five bolts are used in the connection between the axial member and the support. The ultimate shear strength of the bolts is 320

lesya [120]

Answer:

The minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN is 45.7 milimeters.

Explanation:

The complete statement of this question is "Five bolts are used in the connection between the axial member and the support. The ultimate shear strength of the bolts is 320 MPa, and a factor of safety of 4.2 is required with respect to fracture. Determine the minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN"

Each bolt is subjected to shear forces. In this case, safety factor is the ratio of the ultimate shear strength to maximum allowable shear stress. That is to say:

$n = \frac{S_{uts}}{\tau_{max}}$

Where:

$n$ - Safety factor, dimensionless.

$S_{uts}$ - Ultimate shear strength, measured in pascals.

$\tau_{max}$ - Maximum allowable shear stress, measured in pascals.

The maximum allowable shear stress is consequently cleared and computed: ( $n = 4.2$ , $S_{uts} = 320\times 10^{6}\,Pa$ )

$\tau_{max} = \frac{S_{uts}}{n}$

$\tau_{max} = \frac{320\times 10^{6}\,Pa}{4.2}$

$\tau_{max} = 76.190\times 10^{6}\,Pa$

Since each bolt has a circular cross section area and assuming the shear stress is not distributed uniformly, shear stress is calculated by:

$\tau_{max} = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{V}{A}$

Where:

$\tau_{max}$ - Maximum allowable shear stress, measured in pascals.

$V$ - Shear force, measured in kilonewtons.

$A$ - Cross section area, measured in square meters.

As connection consist on five bolts, shear force is equal to a fifth of the applied load. That is:

$V = \frac{P}{5}$

$V = \frac{450\,kN}{5}$

$V = 90\,kN$

The minimum allowable cross section area is cleared in the shearing stress equation:

$A = \frac{4}{3}\cdot \frac{V}{\tau_{max}}$

If $V = 90\,kN$ and $\tau_{max} = 76.190\times 10^{3}\,kPa$ , the minimum allowable cross section area is:

$A = \frac{4}{3} \cdot \frac{90\,kN}{76.190\times 10^{3}\,kPa}$

$A = 1.640\times 10^{-3}\,m^{2}$

The minimum allowable cross section area can be determined in terms of minimum allowable bolt diameter by means of this expression:

$A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}$

The diameter is now cleared and computed:

$D = \sqrt{\frac{4}{\pi}\cdot A}$

$D =\sqrt{\frac{4}{\pi}\cdot (1.640\times 10^{-3}\,m^{2})$

$D = 0.0457\,m$

$D = 45.7\,mm$

The minimum allowable bolt diameter required to support an applied load of P = 450 kN is 45.7 milimeters.

Applications of fleming hand rule

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Fleming hand rule represents the direction of current in a generator's windings and induced current as a conductor is attached to a circuit such that it moves in a magnetic field.

Explanation:

Fleming hand rule represents the direction of current in a generator's windings and induced current as a conductor is attached to a circuit such that it moves in a magnetic field.

Fleming hand rule is used in the case of electric motors and electric generators.

Fleming hand rule is used to determine the following:

1. Direction of torque

2. Angular velocity

3. Angular acceleration

An aircraft is in a steady level turn at a flight speed of 200 ft/s and a turn rate about the local vertical of 5 deg/s. Thrust

notka56 [123]

Answer:

L= 50000 lb

D = 5000 lb

Explanation:

To maintain a level flight the lift must equal the weight in magnitude.

We know the weight is of 50000 lb, so the lift must be the same.

L = W = 50000 lb

The L/D ratio is 10 so

10 = L/D

D = L/10

D = 50000/10 = 5000 lb

To maintain steady speed the thrust must equal the drag, so

T = D = 5000 lb

-Mn has a cubic structure with a0 = 0.8931 nm and a density of 7.47 g/cm3. -Mn has a different cubic structure, with a0 = 0.63

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The percentage volume change is -3.0%

Explanation: We are to determine the percentage change that will occurs is alpha-Mn is transformed to beta-Mn

Value are defined as;

Cubic structure (a0) for alpha-Mn = 0.8931nm = 0.8931e-9m = 7.1236e-28cm3

Cubic structure (a0) for beta-Mn = 0.6326nm = 0.6326e-9m = 2.5316e-28cm3

Density of alpha-Mn = 7.47g/cm3

Density of beta-Mn = 7.26g/cm3

Atomic weight of Mn = 54.938g/mol

Atomic radius of Mn = 0.112nm

STEP1: CALCULATE THE ATOM NUMBER PER CELL IN THE ALPHA-Mn;

Atom per cell = (density × cubic structure × Avogadro's constant) ÷ (atomic weight ) × 100000

(7.47× 7.1236e-28 × 6.02e23) ÷ 54.938 = 58.31

Therefore the number of Atom in alpha-Mn is 58.31 atom per cell

STEP2: CALCULATE THE NUMBER OF ATOM PER CELL IN THE BETA-Mn

Atom per cell = (density × cubic structure × Avogadro's constant) ÷ (atomic weight) × 1000000

(7.26 × 2.5316e-28 × 6.02e23) ÷ 54.938 = 20.14

Therefore the number of Atom in beta-Mn is 20.14 atom per cell

STEP3: CALCULATE THE PERCENTAGE VOLUME OF ALPHA-Mn AND BETA-Mn

V% = [(volume of atom × number of atom per cell) ÷ volume of unit cell] × 1000

For Alpha-Mn:

[(1.4049e-30 × 58.31) ÷ 7.1236e-28] × 1000 = 114.998%

For Beta-Mn:

[(1.4049e-30 × 20.14) ÷ 2.5316e-28] × 1000 = 111.766%

STEP4: CALCULATE THE CHANGE IN PERCENTAGE VOLUME FOR ALPHA TO TRANSFORM TO BETA

change = final state - initial state

Therefore;

Change = 111.766 - 114.998 = -3.23%

Therefore for a transformation of Alpha-Mn to Beta-Mn they will be a decrease in volume
