Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

In Engineering, safety is very essential and very important for all engineers to stick to.

A.) Wearing metal ring or bracelets.

When their is discharg of electrical charges, wearing of metal rings or braceletsb can allow charges to pass through them into the body which can eventually lead to electrical shock.

B.) Being barefoot

Being bare footed is very dangerous because someone can mistakenly step on naked wire which can lead to electrical shock.

C. Working on a damp concrete floor.

It is very hazardous to be working on a damp concrete floor because of the water moisture. It is very unsafe for any electrical job to be done on any wet area because water can conduct electricity which can lead to electrical shock.

d. Touching grounded conductors while working on electrical equipment

Grounded conductor can allow charges to flow through them. So, it is very unsafe to have them have contact with the body because of electrical charges.

e. Working on electrical equipment with sweaty hands

A sweaty hands contain some content of water which can conduct electricity and lead to electrical shock.

The speed of an aircraft is given to be 260 m/s in air. If the speed of sound at that location is 330 m/s, the flight of the air
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Ma=\frac{260}{330} \\Ma=0.7878

So, Ma < 1  Flow is Subsonic

Explanation:

Mach Number:

Mach Number is the ratio of speed of the object to the speed of the sound. It is used to categorize the speed of the object on the basis of mach number as sonic, supersonic and hyper sonic. (It is a unit less quantity)

Mach < 1       Subsonic

Mach > 1       Supersonic

Ma= Speed of the object/Speed of the sound

Ma=\frac{260}{330} \\Ma=0.7878

So, Ma < 1 Flow is Subsonic

A 1000 KVA three phase transformer has a secondary voltage of 208/120. What is the secondary full load amperage?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The three phase full load secondary amperage is 2775.7 A

Explanation:

Following data is given,

S = Apparent Power = 1000 kVA

No. of phases = 3

Secondary Voltage: 208 V/120 V <em>(Here 208 V is three phase voltage and 120 V is single phase voltage) </em>

<em>Since,</em>

<em />

<em />V_{1ph} =\frac{ V_{3ph}}{\sqrt{3} }\\V_{1ph) = \frac{208}{\sqrt{3} }\\<em />

V_{1ph} = 120 V

The formula for apparent power in three phase system is given as:

S = \sqrt{3} VI

Where:

S = Apparent Power

V = Line Voltage

I = Line Current

In order to calculate the Current on Secondary Side, substituting values in above formula,

1000 kVA = \sqrt{3} * (208) * (I)\\1000 * 1000 = \sqrt{3} * (208) * (I)\\I = \frac{1000 * 1000}{\sqrt{3} * (208) }\\ I = 2775.7 A

Carbon resistors often come as a brown cylinder with colored bands. These colored bands can be read to determine the manufacture
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

a) 4.7 kΩ, +/- 5%

b) 2.0 MΩ, +/- 20%

Explanation:

a) If the resistor has the following combination of color bands:

1) Yellow = 1st digit = 4

2) Violet = 2nd digit = 7

3) Red = multiplier = 10e2

4) Gold = tolerance = +/- 5%

this means that the resistor has 4700 Ω (or 4.7 kΩ), with 5% tolerance.

b) Repeating the process for the following combination of color bands:

1)  Red = 1st digit = 2

2) Black = 2nd digit = 0

3) Green = multiplier = 10e5

4) Nothing = tolerance = +/- 20%

This combination represents to a resistor of 2*10⁶ Ω (or 2.0 MΩ), with +/- 20% tolerance.

Rafel knows that lessons learned is a valuable aid to future projects. When should he and his team address
Arada [10]

Answer: Create lessons learned at the end of the project.

Explanation:

Lessons learned are the experiences that are gotten from a project which should be taken into account for the future projects. Lesson learned are created at the end of the project.

The main objective of the lessons learned is that they show both the positive experience and the negative experience of a project and this will help the future projects that will be undertaken.

You are in charge of ordering the concrete for a basement wall concrete pour. The wall forms are all set up and ready. The wall
choli [55]

Answer:

189.15cy

Explanation:

To understand this problem we need to understand as well the form.

It is clear that there is four wall, two short and two long.

The two long are \rightarrow 120ft5in+2(10ft)

The two long are \rightarrow 122ft1in=122.08ft

The two shors are \rightarrow 86ft4.5in = 86.375ft

The height and the thickness are 14ft and 0.83ft respectively.

So we only calculate the Quantity of concrete,

Q_c = [(2*122.08)+(2*86-375)]*14*0.833\\Q_c=4864.02ft^3

That in cubic yards is equal to 180.15 (1cy=27ft^3)

Hence, we need order 5% plus that represent with the quantity

Q_{ordered}=1.05*180.15=189.15cy
