Technician A says that proper footwear may include both leather and steel-toed shoes. Technician B says that leather-soled shoes
Amanda [17]

Given:

We have given two statements.

Statement 1: Proper footwear may include both leather and steel-toed shoes.

Statement 2:  Leather-soled shoes provide slip resistance.

Find:

Which statement is true.

Solution:

A slip-resistant outsole is smoother and more slip-resistant than other outsole formulations when exposed to water and oil. A smoother outsole in rubber ensures a slip-resistant shoe can handle a slippery floor more effectively.

Slip resistant shoes have an interlocked tread pattern that does not close the water in, enabling the slip resistant sole to touch the floor to provide better slip resistance.

Leather-soled shoes don't provide slop resistance.

Therefore, both the Technicians are wrong.

Given below are the measured streamflows in cfs from a storm of 6-hour duration on a stream having a drainage area of 185 mi^2.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

33.56 ft^3/sec.in

Explanation:

Duration = 6 hours

drainage area = 185 mi^2

constant baseflow = 550 cfs

<u>Derive the unit hydrograph using the inverse procedure </u>

first step : calculate for the volume of direct runoff hydrograph using the details in table 2 attached below

Vdrh = sum of drh *  duration

        = 29700 * 6 hours ( 216000 secs )

        = 641,520,000 ft^3.

next step : Calculate the volume of runoff in equivalent depth

Vdrh / Area = 641,520,000  / 185 mi^2

                    = 1.49 in

Finally derive the unit hydrograph

Unit of hydrograph = drh /  volume of runoff in equivalent depth

                                = 50 ft^3 / 1.49 in  =  33.56 ft^3/sec.in

A small pad subjected to a shearing force is deformed at the top of the pad 0.08 in. The height of the pad is 1.38 in. What is t
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The shear strain is 0.05797 rad.

Explanation:

Shear strain is the ratio of change in dimension along the shearing load direction to the height of the plate under application of shear load. Width of the plate remains same. Length of the plate slides under shear load.

Step1

Given:

Height of the pad is 1.38 in.

Deformation at the top of the pad is 0.08 in.

Calculation:

Step2

Shear strain is calculated as follows:

tan\phi=\frac{\bigtriangleup l}{h}

tan\phi=\frac{0.08}{1.38}

tan\phi= 0.05797

For small angle of \phi, tan\phi can take as\phi.

\phi = 0.05797 rad.

Thus, the shear strain is 0.05797 rad.

The maximum stress that a bar will withstand before failing is called • Rapture Strength • Yield Strength • Tensile Strength • B
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: Rupture strength

Explanation: Rupture strength is the strength of a material that is bearable till the point before the breakage by the tensile strength applied on it. This term is mentioned when there is a sort of deformation in the material due to tension.So, rupture will occur before whenever there are chances of failing and the material is still able to bear stresses before failing.
