A life cycle assessment (LCA) determines the environmental impact at all stages of a product's life cycle, including production,

usage, and disposal;
the LCA process includes procedures that gather and evaluate the inputs and outputs of materials, energy, and the related impact that can be directly assigned to the product or process at any point in its life cycle;
the main purpose of an LCA is to assess potential environmental impact in order to address issues before hazardous or irreversible effects are created;
LCAs include goal definitions, inventories, impact analyses, and improvement analyses, which enable companies to identify environmental issues and explore possible solutions to problems; and
inherency is the property of a life cycle that may hide hazardous or energy-consuming processes, creating a net total product that appears to be benign or efficient but in actuality does have negative impacts.

Explain the differences between planned and predictive maintenance.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Planned maintenance refers to any scheduled activity carried out to check a machine is working ok and diagnose procedures to fix it if need it. On the other hand, predictive mainteance is all the techniques which help to define if a machine requires or not maintenance activities so far.

Explanation:

Planned maintenance is based on preventive routines to ensure a machine is working in acceptable conditions and at the same time prevent them to change to risky values performing acticities like parts replacement, cleaning,  etc. The key of this maintenance is schedule, that is to say, is a maintenance that has to be carried out constantly each certain time. Predictive maintenance is different because it is used to define if a machie needs any kind of inspection or if, on the contrary, the machine can continue operating without any intervention. The good point about predictive maintenance is the capability of telling when a maintenance is required and when is no necessarily required which is ideal to save costs.

A Geostationary satellite has an 8kW RF transmission pointed at the earth. How much force does that induce on the spacecraft? (N
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The force induced on the aircraft is 2.60 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Power transmitted, P_{t} = 8 kW = 8000 W

Now, the force, F is given by:

P_{t} = Force(F)\times velocity(v) = Fv               (1)

where

v = velocity

Now,

For a geo-stationary satellite, the centripetal force, F_{c} is provided by the gravitational force, F_{G}:

F_{c} = F_{G}

\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = \frac{GM_{e}m{R^{2}}

Thus from the above, velocity comes out to be:

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM_{e}}{R}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.979\times 10^{24}}{42166\times 10^{3}}} = 3075.36 m/ s

where

R = R_{e} + H

R = \sqrt{GM_{e}(\frac{T}{2\pi})^{2}}

where

G = Gravitational constant

T = Time period of rotation of Earth

R is calculated as 42166 km

Now, from eqn (1):

8000 = F\times 3075.36

F = 2.60 N

Primary Creep: slope (creep rate) decreases with time
Igoryamba

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Creep is known as the time dependent deformation of structure due to constant load acting on the body.

Creep is generally seen at high temperature.

Due to creep the length of the structure increases which is not fit for serviceability purpose.

When time passes structure gain strength as the structure strength increases with time so creep tends to decrease.

When we talk about Creep rate for new structure the creep will be more than the old structure i.e. the creep rate decreases with time.
