The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b

ase plate CD has been welded to the lower flange of the beam, and the end reaction of the beam is known to be 18 kips. The coefficient of static friction is 0.30 between two steel surfaces and 0.60 between steel and concrete. If the horizontal motion of the beam is prevented by the force Q, determine (a) the force P required to raise the beam, (b) the corresponding force Q

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁  and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0   (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º -  F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒   Nef*Cos 12º -  (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒   Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.

Answer:

a; P = 15.25 kips

b) Q = 5.4 kips

Explanation:

To understand scenerio, see attached image also.

Consider the forces acting on the system, F1 is the force acting against the direction of P, F2 acting in the along direction of P, N is at angle 12 degrees

Calculating F1, we have;

F1 = µ x 18 = 0.30 x 18 = 5.4 kips

F2 = = µ x N = 0.3N

To be in static condition, sum of forces would be equal to 0

18 = N cos 12 – F2 sin 12

Putting value of F2 and solving above equation for N;

N x 0.915 = 18

N = 19.65 kips

Now the wedge will move if, P > ( F1  + F2 cos 12 + N sin 12)

Putting the values;

P >= 15.25 kips

The corresponding force Q will be equal to F1 = 5.4 kips

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Explanation:

For ligation process the 1:3 vector to insert ratio is the good to utilize . By considering that we can take 1 ratio of vector and 3 ratio of insert ( consider different insert size ) and take 10 different vials of ligation ( each calculated using different insert size from low to high ) and plot a graph for transformation efficiency and using optimum transformation efficiency we can find out the insert size.

Radioactive wastes are temporarily stored in a spherical container, the center of which is buried a distance of 10 m below the e
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Outside temperature =88.03°C

Explanation:

Conductivity of air-soil from standard table

   K=0.60 W/m-k

To find temperature we need to balance energy

Heat generation=Heat dissipation

Now find the value

We know that for sphere

q=\dfrac{2\pi DK}{1-\dfrac{D}{4H}}(T_1-T_2)

Given that q=500 W

so

500=\dfrac{2\pi 2\times .6}{1-\dfrac{2}{4\times 10}}(T_1-25)

By solving that equation we get

T_2=88.03°C

So outside temperature =88.03°C

A 1 turn coil carries has a radius of 9.8 cm and a magnetic moment of 6.2 X 10 -2 Am 2. What is the current through the coil?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The current through the coil is 2.05 A

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the coil, N = 1

radius of the coil, r = 9.8 cm = 0.098 m

magnetic moment of the coil, P = 6.2 x 10⁻² A m²

The magnetic moment is given by;

P = IA

Where;

I is the current through the coil

A is area of the coil = πr² = π(0.098)² = 0.03018 m²

The current through the coil is given by;

I = P / A

I = (6.2 x 10⁻² ) / (0.03018)

I = 2.05 A

Therefore, the current through the coil is 2.05 A
