The available options are:

a. Want for a television set

b. Want for medical attention

c. Want for friendship

d. Want for new clothing

Answer:

Want for friendship

Explanation:

Given that economic want is what humans desire to have or possess such that they pay money to acquire them.

Hence, from the available options "want for friendship " is not economic want because it can't be bought with money, while other options can be bought with money or monetary transaction.

A saturated 1.5 ft3 clay sample has a natural water content of 25%, shrinkage limit (SL) of 12% and a specific gravity (GS) of 2

Svetllana [295]

$79 f t^{3}$ is the volume of the sample when the water content is 10%.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given Data:

$V_{1}=100\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}$

First has a natural water content of 25% = $\frac{25}{100}$ = 0.25

Shrinkage limit, $w_{1}=12 \%=\frac{12}{100}=0.12$

$G_{s}=2.70$

We need to determine the volume of the sample when the water content is 10% (0.10). As we know,

$V \propto[1+e]$

$\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}=\frac{1+e_{2}}{1+e_{1}}$ ------> eq 1

$e_{1}=\frac{w_{1} \times G_{s}}{S_{r}}$

The above equation is at $S_{r}=1$ ,

$e_{1}=w_{1} \times G_{s}$

Applying the given values, we get

$e_{1}=0.25 \times 2.70=0.675$

Shrinkage limit is lowest water content

$e_{2}=w_{2} \times G_{s}$

Applying the given values, we get

$e_{2}=0.12 \times 2.70=0.324$

Applying the found values in eq 1, we get

$\frac{V_{2}}{100}=\frac{1+0.324}{1+0.675}=\frac{1.324}{1.675}=0.7904$

$V_{2}=0.7904 \times 100=79\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}$

Firefighters are holding a nozzle at the end of a hose while trying to extinguish a fire. The nozzle exit diameter is 8 cm, and

ivanzaharov [21]

Question

Determine the average water exit velocity

Answer:

53.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Volume flow rate, $Q=16 m^{3}/min$

Diameter d= 8cm= 0.08 m

Assumptions

The flow is jet flow hence momentum-flux correction factor is unity
Gravitational force is not considered
The flow is steady, frictionless and incompressible
Water is discharged to the atmosphere hence pressure is ignored

We know that Q=AV and making v the subject then

$V=\frac {Q}{A}$ where V is the exit velocity and A is area

Area, $A=\frac {\pi d^{2}{4}$ where d is the diameter

By substitution

$V=\frac {16\times 4}{\pi 0.08^{2}}=3183.098862 m/min$

To convert v to m/s from m/s, we simply divide it by 60 hence

$V=\frac {3183.098862 m/min}{60 s}=53.0516477 m/s\approx 53.05 m/s$

a buyer can purchase 70 screwdrivers ten 4-inch length twelve 6 inch length twenty 8-inch length are needed. how many heavy 24-i

jasenka [17]

Answer:

28 , 24-inch screwdrivers

Explanation:

The total number of screwdrivers that can be purchased is = 70

4 - inch length screwdrivers = 10

6- inch length screwdrivers = 12

8- inch length screwdrivers = 20

Total = 20 +12 +10 = 42

Remaining = 70-42 = 28

So, heavy 24-inch screwdrivers = 28
