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.

A cylindrical specimen of steel has an original diameter of 12.8 mm. It is tested in tension its engineering fracture strength i
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) The ductility = -30.12%

the negative sign means reduction

Therefore, there is 30.12% reduction

b) the true stress at fracture is 658.26 Mpa

Explanation:

Given that;

Original diameter d_{o} = 12.8 mm

Final diameter d_{f} = 10.7

Engineering stress  \alpha _{E} = 460 Mpa

a) determine The ductility in terms of percent reduction in area;

Ai = π/4(d_{o} )²  ; Ag = π/4(d_{f} )²

% = π/4 [ ( (d_{f} )² - (d_{o} )²) / ( π/4  (d_{o} )²) ]

= ( (d_{f} )² - (d_{o} )²) / (d_{o} )² × 100

we substitute

= [( (10.7)² - (12.8)²) / (12.8)² ] × 100

= [(114.49 - 163.84) / 163.84 ] × 100

= - 0.3012 × 100

= -30.12%

the negative sign means reduction

Therefore, there is 30.12% reduction

b) The true stress at fracture;

True stress  \alpha _{T} = \alpha _{E} ( 1 +  E_{E} )

E_{E}  is engineering strain

E_{E}  = dL / Lo

= (do² - df²) / df² = (12.8² - 10.7²) / 10.7² = (163.84 - 114.49) / 114.49

= 49.35 / 114.49  

E_{E} = 0.431

so we substitute the value of E_{E}  into our initial equation;

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 460 ( 1 +  0.431)

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 460 (1.431)

True stress  \alpha _{T} = 658.26 Mpa

Therefore, the true stress at fracture is 658.26 Mpa

Which regulations are related to guard rail height and dimensions and uniformity of stairs?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C.

structural safety

Explanation:

Guards protecting floor surfaces must be 36 inches in height, while guards for stairs must be 34 inches in height measured vertically from the tread nosing. A guard may also serve as the required handrail (34 to 38 inches high) provided the top rail meets the requirements for grip size.
