False.  Even though it sure feels like it, that's not what's happening.

In the design of wall and column forms, the two most important factors are which of the following? a. rate of placement of the c
Simora [160]

Answer:

c. length of the wall or column and the rate of placement of the concrete

Explanation:

when designing for wall and column form-works, it is of utmost important to know the length of the wall and the type of concrete placement to be used.

Concrete placement has methods and precaution to be taken when doing the  form work

if the concrete placement is manually (hand or funnel) the form work height should not be more than 1 m to enable easy compaction and vibration of concrete in the form.

Also, if the form work length is too long and it is not well reinforced, it tends to burg if the force apply during concrete placement or during vibration is much.

What did Thomson contribute to the model of atom
Ganezh [65]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>Electrons </em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Thomson contributed to the model of an atom by discovery of </u></em><em><u>electrons </u></em><em><u>and thus proving the existence of sub-atomic particles in an atom. </u></em>
  • <u><em>Thomson used cathode ray tube, and demonstrated that cathode rays were negatively charged.</em></u> According to his model normally known as the plum pudding in which he stated that an atom is composed of electrons as subatomic particles that are surrounded by positive charges to balance the electrons.

Show that rigid body rotation near the Galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant
irakobra [83]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to gravitational acceleration and centripetal acceleration. The equality between these two forces that maintains the balance will allow to determine how the rigid body is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density. Let's start with the gravitational acceleration of the Star, which is

a_g = \frac{GM}{R^2}

Here

M = \text{Mass inside the Orbit of the star}

R = \text{Orbital radius}

G = \text{Universal Gravitational Constant}

Mass inside the orbit in terms of Volume and Density is

M =V \rho

Where,

V = Volume

\rho =Density

Now considering the volume of the star as a Sphere we have

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi R^3

Replacing at the previous equation we have,

M = (\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho

Now replacing the mass at the gravitational acceleration formula we have that

a_g = \frac{G}{R^2}(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)\rho

a_g = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho

For a rotating star, the centripetal acceleration is caused by this gravitational acceleration.  So centripetal acceleration of the star is

a_c = \frac{4}{3} G\pi R\rho

At the same time the general expression for the centripetal acceleration is

a_c = \frac{\Theta^2}{R}

Where \Theta is the orbital velocity

Using this expression in the left hand side of the equation we have that

\frac{\Theta^2}{R} = \frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2

\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho R^2)^{1/2}

\Theta = (\frac{4}{3}G\pi \rho)^{1/2}R

Considering the constant values we have that

\Theta = \text{Constant} \times R

\Theta \propto R

As the orbital velocity is proportional to the orbital radius, it shows the rigid body rotation of stars near the galactic center.

So the rigid-body rotation near the galactic center is consistent with a spherically symmetric mass distribution of constant density

.You have always been impressed by the speed of the elevators in your apartment building. You wonder about the maximum accelerat
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

5.51 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial scale reading = 50 kg  

assume the greatest scale reading = 78.09 kg

<u>Determine the maximum acceleration for these elevators</u>

At rest the weight is = 50 kg

Weight ( F ) = mg = 50 * 9.81 = 490.5 N<u> </u>

<u> </u>At the 10th floor weight = 78.09 kg

Weight at 10th floor ( F ) = 78.09 * 9.81 = 766.11 N

F = change in weight

Change in weight( F ) = ma = 766.11 - 490.5 (we will take the mass as the starting mass as that mass is calculated when the body is at rest)

50 * a = 275.61

Hence the maximum acceleration ( a ) = 275.61 / 50 = 5.51 m/s^2
