Why is the face of the claw on a claw hammer usually a smooth curve? Why isn't it straight or some other shape?

Answer:

The face of the claw on the claw hammer is usually a smooth curve so as to improve the ease with which nails are removed when removing nails because as the nail held between the V shaped split claw is being pulled out from the wood, it slides more and more towards cheek, reducing the distance of the nail from the cheek which is the fulcrum, thereby increasing the mechanical advantage because the location of the hand on the grip remains unchanged

Create a separate function file fieldtovar.m that receives a single structure as an input and assigns each of the field values t
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Explanation gives the answer

Explanation:

% Using MATLAB,

% Matlab file : fieldtovar.m

function varargout = fieldtovar(S)

% function that accepts single structure as input, assigning each

% of the field values to user-defined variables

fields = fieldnames(S); % get the field names of the input structure

% check if number of user-defined variables and number of fields in

% structure are equal

if nargout == length(fields)

% if equal assign each value of structure to user-defined varable

for i=1:nargout

varargout{i} = getfield(S,fields{i});

end

else

% if not equal display an error message

error('The number of output variables does not equal the number of fields');

end

end

%This brings an end to the program

Ignoring any losses, estimate how much energy (in units of Btu) is required to raise the temperature of water in a 90-gallon hot
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Q=36444.11 Btu

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature = 60° F

Final temperature = 110° F

Specific heat of water = 0.999 Btu/lbm.R

Volume of water = 90 gallon

Mass = Volume x density

1\ gallon = 0.13ft^3

Mass ,m= 90 x 0.13 x 62.36 lbm

m=729.62 lbm

We know that sensible heat given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

Now by putting the values

Q= 729.62 x 0.999 x (110-60) Btu

Q=36444.11 Btu

Which option should the engineers focus on as they develop the train in the following scenario?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

  Engineers can design a train with a regenerative braking system

Explanation:

Assuming the point of the question is that the engineers want to focus on using energy efficiently when starting and stopping, they would likely want to consider a regenerative braking system. Such a system can store energy during braking so that it can be used during starting, reducing the amount of energy that must be supplied by an outside power source.
