Answer:

Difference : Balloon framing go through from foundation to top floor while Platform do not

advantages and disadvantages

Balloon framing : It has less vertical shrinkage  ( disadvantage )

platform framing : It has more vertical shrinkage and fire stops ( advantage )

platform framing : It is easier and safer to use

Reason for platform framing :

Due to these advantages Platform framing has become a better choice

<u><em>Little added fire stopping</em></u><u> </u>is required in platform framing because of double tap plate present which can act as as a fire stop

<u><em>Steel beam/ glue laminated wood beam </em></u>is preferred at foundation level because wood beam under the ground will most likely shrink over time

Explanation:

Differences : Balloon framing a form of building houses using a special kind of timber construction its studs start from the foundation and go to all the way to the last floor while in Platform framing the studs are interrupted by floor platforms ( i.e. they do not go through like in Balloon framing )

advantages and disadvantages

Balloon framing : It has less vertical shrinkage  ( disadvantage )

platform framing : It has more vertical shrinkage and fire stops ( advantage )

platform framing : It is easier and safer to use

Reason for platform framing :

Due to these advantages Platform framing has become a better choice

<u><em>Little added fire stopping</em></u><u> </u>is required in platform framing because of double tap plate present which can act as as a fire stop

<u><em>Steel beam/ glue laminated wood beam </em></u>is preferred at foundation level because wood beam under the ground will most likely shrink over time

Two cars are traveling along a straight line in the same direction, the lead car at 25 m/s and the other car at 35 m/s. At the m
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a. t_1=12.5\ s

b. a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2}  must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

c. t_2=2.5714\ s is the time taken to stop after braking

Explanation:

Given:

  • speed of leading car, u_1=25\ m.s^{-1}
  • speed of lagging car, u_{2}=35\ m.s^{-1}
  • distance between the cars, \Delta s=45\ m
  • deceleration of the leading car after braking, a_1=-2\ m.s^{-2}

a.

Time taken by the car to stop:

v_1=u_1+a_1.t_1

where:

v_1=0 , final velocity after braking

t_1= time taken

0=25-2\times t_1

t_1=12.5\ s

b.

using the eq. of motion for the given condition:

v_2^2=u_2^2+2.a_2.\Delta s

where:

v_2= final velocity of the chasing car after braking = 0

a_2= acceleration of the chasing car after braking

0^2=35^2+2\times a_2\times 45

a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2} must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

c.

time taken by the chasing car to stop:

v_2=u_2+a_2.t_2

0=35-13.61\times t_2

t_2=2.5714\ s  is the time taken to stop after braking

Why do the magnetic forces acting on the coil change as the current running through the coil changes?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: The changing magnetic field caused by the material's motion induces a current in the coil of wire proportional to the change in field. If a 0 is represented, the magnetic field does not change between the two domains of a bit, so no current is induced as the magnetic material passes the coil.

a place that is typically cold because of an increase in altitude would most likely have what type of climate? dry climate mild
Marta_Voda [28]
A place that is cold because of an increase in altitude has a mountain area climate or simply, mountain climate. An area that is high in altitude typically has a colder temperature because of the increased amount of rainfall they have. Also, air tends to cool as it rises in temperature.

A 180 g model airplane charged to 18 mC and traveling at 2.2 m/s passes within 8.6 cm of a wire, nearly parallel to its path, ca
viva [34]

Answer:

a=0.2*10^{-5}g

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=180=>0.18kg

Charge Q=18mC=18*10^-^3C

Velocity v=2.2m/s

Length of Wire L=8.6cm=>0.086

Current I=30A

Generally the equation for Magnetic Field of Wire B is mathematically given by

 B=\frac{\mu_0*I}{2\pi*l}

 B=\frac{4*3.14*10^-^7*I}{2*3.14*8.6}

 B=6.978*10^{-5}T

Generally the equation for Force on the plane F is mathematically given by

 F=qvB

Therefore

 ma=qvB

 a=\frac{qvB}{m}

 a=\frac{18*10^{-5}83.4*6.978*10^{-5}}{0.18kg}

 a=2.37*10^{-5}

Therefore in Terms of g's

 a=\frac{2.37*10^{-5}}{9.8}

 a=0.2*10^{-5}g
