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.

Water is flowing at a rate of 0.15 ft3/s in a 6 inch diameter pipe. The water then goes through a sudden contraction to a 2 inch
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Head loss=0.00366 ft

Explanation:

Given :Water flow rate Q=0.15 \frac{ft^{3}}{sec}

         D_{1}= 6 inch=0.5 ft

        D_{2}=2 inch=0.1667 ft

As we know that Q=AV

A_{1}\times V_{1}=A_{2}\times V_{2}

So V_{2}=\frac{Q}{A_2}

     V_{2}=\dfrac{.015}{\frac{3.14}{4}\times 0.1667^{2}}

     V_{2=0.687 ft/sec

We know that Head loss due to sudden contraction

           h_{l}=K\frac{V_{2}^2}{2g}

If nothing is given then take K=0.5

So head lossh_{l}=(0.5)\frac{{0.687}^2}{2\times 32.18}

                                    =0.00366 ft

So head loss=0.00366 ft

because not all substances react the same to temperature changes. If you heat a metal and an organic substance and you turn the temperature up, the organic substance like water will react (boil) while most metals need higher temperature to react.
