Scientists think convection currents are what cause earth's plates to move.  A convection current is caused by differences in temperature.  Mantle material close to earth's core is very hot.  Mantle material near the lithosphere is cooler.

(a). If the temperature of a substance is increased the density of it will also increased. The temperature is directly proportional to the density because the molecular activity of the substance will be affected by the temperature

The built-up beam is formed by welding together the thin plates of thickness 5 mm. determine the location of the shear center o.
atroni [7]

Answer:

The location of the shear center o is 0.033 or 33 m

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

The moment of inertia of the section is =  I = 0.05 * 0.4 ^3 /12 + 0.005 * 0.2 ^3/12

= 30 * 10 ^ ⁻⁶ m⁴

Now,

The first moment of inertia is

Q =ῩA = [ (0.1 -x) + x/2] (0.005 * x)

= 0.5x * 10 ^⁻³ - 2.5 x * 10⁻³ x²

Thus,

The shear flow is,

q =  VQ/I

so,

P =  (0.5x * 10 ^⁻³ - 2.5 x * 10⁻³ x²)/ 30 * 10 ^⁻⁶

P = (16.67 x - 83. 33  x²)

The shear force resisted by the shorter web becomes

Vw,₂ = 2∫ = ₀.₁ and ₀ = P (16.67 x - 83. 33  x²) dx = 0.11x

Then,

We take the moment at a point A

∑Mₐ = 0

- ( p * e)- (Vw₂ * 0.3 ) = 0

e =  0.11 p * 0.3/p

which gives us 0.033 m

= 33 m

Therefore the location of the shear center o is 0.033 or 33 m

Note: Kindly find an attached diagram to the question given above as part of the explanation solved with it.

During aerobic activity, if your heart rate is lower than the lower limit, you are ___________________.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Not pushing yourself hard enough is the answer since your heart rate doesn't even hit your lower minimum.
Pushing yourself to the limit is at your max heart rate.
Just at the right spot is at your max heart rate.
Pushing yourself too hard is above your max heart rate.
