Are the wooden pillars shown in the image below, a dead load?

Engineering
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

no

Explanation:

it's not a dead load because when load is put on the pillars it's not fully straining it's been slowly getting to be heavier in that period of time before it falls

1. A glass window of width W = 1 m and height H = 2 m is 5 mm thick and has a thermal conductivity of kg = 1.4 W/m*K. If the inn
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

1. \dot Q=19600\ W

2. \dot Q=120\ W

Explanation:

1.

Given:

  • height of the window pane, h=2\ m
  • width of the window pane, w=1\ m
  • thickness of the pane, t=5\ mm= 0.005\ m
  • thermal conductivity of the glass pane, k_g=1.4\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • temperature of the inner surface, T_i=15^{\circ}C
  • temperature of the outer surface, T_o=-20^{\circ}C

<u>According to the Fourier's law the rate of heat transfer is given as:</u>

\dot Q=k_g.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

here:

A = area through which the heat transfer occurs = 2\times 1=2\ m^2

dT = temperature difference across the thickness of the surface = 35^{\circ}C

dx = t = thickness normal to the surface = 0.005\ m

\dot Q=1.4\times 2\times \frac{35}{0.005}

\dot Q=19600\ W

2.

  • air spacing between two glass panes, dx=0.01\ m
  • area of each glass pane, A=2\times 1=2\ m^2
  • thermal conductivity of air, k_a=0.024\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • temperature difference between the surfaces, dT=25^{\circ}C

<u>Assuming layered transfer of heat through the air and the air between the glasses is always still:</u>

\dot Q=k_a.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

\dot Q=0.024\times 2\times \frac{25}{0.01}

\dot Q=120\ W

When do design engineers start on the design improvement step?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

  as soon as there is a design to improve

Explanation:

As a design engineer, I started on the "design improvement" step as soon as I had an initial conceptual design.

__

Then, I started that step again when my boss told me, "make it better."

_____

The more interesting question is, "when do you <em>stop</em> the design improvement step?" (Judging by the constant barrage of software updates, that answer is, "never.")

What is the net force acting on a car cruising at a constant velocity of 70 km/h (a) on a level road and (b) on an uphill road?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

a) zero b) zero

Explanation:

Newton's first law tells us that a body remains at rest or in uniform rectilinear motion, if a net force is not applied on it, that is, if there are no applied forces or If the sum of forces acting is zero. In this case there is a body that moves with uniform rectilinear motion which implies that there is no net force.
