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

A loop of wire is in a magnetic field such that its axis is parallel with the field direction. Which of the following would resu
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

All the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.

Explanation:

The induced emf in a conductor is directly proportional to the rate of change of flux.

emf = -\frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\where;\\\\\phi \ is \ magnetic \ flux\\\\\phi = BA\ cos \theta

where;

A is the area of the loop

B is the strength of the magnetic field

θ is the angle between the loop and the magnetic field

<em>Considering option </em><em>A</em>, moving the loop outside the magnetic field will change the strength of the magnetic field and consequently result in an induced emf.

<em>Considering option </em><em>B</em>, a change in diameter of the loop, will cause a change in the magnetic flux and in turn result in an induced emf.

Option C has a similar effect with option A, thus both will result in an induced emf.

Finally, <em>considering option</em> D, spinning the loop such that its axis does not consistently line up with the magnetic field direction will<em> </em>change the angle<em> </em>between the loop and the magnetic field. This effect will also result in an induced emf.

Therefore, all the given options will result in an induced emf in the loop.

What is the acceleration experiance by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest
lina2011 [118]

Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed  =  (27 - 0)  =  27 m/s
Time for the change = 10 s

Magnitude of acceleration =  (27 m/s) / (10 s)  =  2.7 m/s²  .

Dovator [93]
Speed is the same as the initial: 25m/s.

*if* you need vectors though:

final velocity = (25*cos(35), -25*sin(35) ) m/s

An object is observed for a time interval of 20 seconds. From time 6.7 s the object experiences a Force of 106 N that lasts unti
shusha [124]

Answer:

1654 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse experienced by an object is equal to the product between the force exerted on the object and the time during which the force lasts:

I=F\Delta t

where:

I is the impulse

F is the force exerted on the object

\Delta t is the time during which the force is applied

For the object in this problem, we have

F=106 N (force applied)

\Delta t= 15.6 s (time interval)

Therefore, the impulse experienced by the object is:

I=(106)(15.6)=1654 kg m/s
