Answer:

Explanation:

Total Stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance and the braking distance, such that ;

d=dr + db =1.47St +[ ( Si 2- Sf2 ) / 30(F/0.01G) ]

In this case, the reaction time, t, is the AASHTO standard, or 2. 5 s. The friction factor, F, is based upon the standard AASHTO deceleration rate of 11.2 ft/s2 (F = 11.2/32.2 = 0.348) and the speed is given as 40 mph.

d = 1.47x60x2.5+ [ (60^2-40^2) / 30x 0.348 ]

d = 220.5 + ( (3600-1600) / 10.44 )

d = 220.5 + 191.57

d = 412.07ft.

Since the sign can be seen clearly at 120 ft.

Then the position of the sign should be,

= 412.07 - 120

= 292.07 ft

Explanation:

Dual home host - it is referred to as the firewall that is incorporated with two or more networks. out of these two networks, one is assigned to the internal network and the other is for the network. The main purpose of the dual-homed host is to ensure that no Internet protocol traffic is induced between both the network.

The most simple example of a dual-homed host is a computing motherboard that is provided with two network interfaces.

The ???? − i relationship for an electromagnetic system is given by ???? = 1.2i1/2 g where g is the air-gap length. For current
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a) The mechanical force is -226.2 N

b) Using the coenergy the mechanical force is -226.2 N

Explanation:

a) Energy of the system:

\lambda =\frac{1.2*i^{1/2} }{g} \\i=(\frac{\lambda g}{1.2} )^{2}

\frac{\delta w_{f} }{\delta g} =\frac{g^{2}\lambda ^{3}  }{3*1.2^{2} }

f_{m}=- \frac{\delta w_{f} }{\delta g} =-\frac{g^{2}\lambda ^{3}  }{3*1.2^{2} }

If i = 2A and g = 10 cm

\lambda =\frac{1.2*i^{1/2} }{g} =\frac{1.2*2^{1/2} }{10x10^{-2} } =16.97

f_{m}=-\frac{g^{2}\lambda ^{3}  }{3*1.2^{2} }=-\frac{16.97^{3}*2*0.1 }{3*1.2^{2} } =-226.2N

b) Using the coenergy of the system:

f_{m}=- \frac{\delta w_{f} }{\delta g} =-\frac{1.2*2*i^{3/2}  }{3*g^{2} }=-\frac{1.2*2*2^{3/2} }{3*0.1^{2} } =-226.2N

Please help i am give brainliest i really need help guys no links please ???
devlian [24]

Explanation:

The wind is an actual form of solar energy. winds are caused by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the earth, and the earth's surface irregularities. The wind is capture in a wind turbine which provides a renewable energy source, the wind makes the rotor spin, as the rotor spins the movement of the blades drives a generator that creates energy, also known as wind power. The average wind efficiency of turbines is between 35-45%.

Advantages of wind power

- Wind power is cost-effective

- wind creates jobs

- wind enables US industry growth and US competitiveness

-it's a clean fuel source
