Answer:

M = 281.25 lb*ft

Explanation:

Given

W<em>man</em> = 150 lb

Weight per linear foot of the boat: q = 3 lb/ft

L = 15.00 m

M<em>max</em> = ?

Initially, we have to calculate the Buoyant Force per linear foot (due to the water exerts a uniform distributed load upward on the bottom of the boat):

∑ Fy = 0  (+↑)     ⇒    q'*L - W - q*L = 0

⇒       q' = (W + q*L) / L

⇒       q' = (150 lb + 3 lb/ft*15 ft) / 15 ft

⇒       q' = 13 lb/ft   (+↑)

The free body diagram of the boat is shown in the pic.

Then, we apply the following equation

q(x) = (13 - 3) = 10   (+↑)

V(x) = ∫q(x) dx = ∫10 dx = 10x   (0 ≤ x ≤ 7.5)

M(x) = ∫10x dx = 5x²  (0 ≤ x ≤ 7.5)

The maximum internal bending moment occurs when x = 7.5 ft

then

M(7.5) = 5(7.5)² = 281.25 lb*ft

For the same cross-sectional area, which column provides the higher buckling load: a circular bar or a circular tube?
juin [17]

Answer:

Circular tube

Explanation:

Now for better understanding lets take an example

Lets take

Diameter of solid bar= 4\sqrt{2} cm

Outer diameter of tube =6 cm

Inner diameter of tube=2 cm

So from we can say that both tubes have equal cross sectional area.

We know that buckling load is given as P = \dfrac{\pi ^2EI}{L_e^2}      

If area moment of inertia(I) is high then buckling load will be high.

We know that  area moment of inertia(I)

For circular tube I = \dfrac{\pi }{64}(D_o^4-D_i^4)

For circular bar I = \dfrac{\pi }{64}D^4  

Now by putting the values

    For circular tube I=62.83 cm^4

  For circular bar I=50.26 cm^4

So we can say that for same cross sectional area the  area moment of inertia(I) is high for tube as compare to bar.So buckling load  will be higher in tube as compare to bar.

The 10 foot wide circle quarter gate AB is articulated at A. Determine the contact force between the gate and the smooth surface
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}

Explanation:

Given that

R=8 ft

Width= 10 ft

We know that hydro statics force given as

  F=ρ g A X

ρ is the density of fluid

A projected area on vertical plane

X is distance of center mass of projected plane from free surface of water.

Here

X=8/2  ⇒X=4 ft

A=8 x 10=80  ft^2

So now putting the values

F=ρ g A X

F=62.4(32.14)(80)(4)

F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}

Takt time is the rate at which a factory must produce to satisfy the customer's demand. a)- True b)- False
laila [671]

Answer: a)True

Explanation: Takt time is defined as the average time difference between  the production of the two consecutive unit of goods by the manufacturer and this rate is matched with the demand of the customer. This is the time which is calculated to find the acceptable time for which the goods unit must be produced  by the factory to meet the needs of the customer. Therefore , the statement is true that takt time is the rate at which a factory must produce to satisfy the customer's demand.
