2. A F-22 Raptor has just climbed through an altitude of 9,874 m at 1,567 kph when a disk

The pressure difference across the sensor housing will be "95 kPa".

According to the question, the values are:

Altitude,

9874

Speed,

1567 kph

Pressure,

122 kPa

The temperature will be:

→ $T = 15.04-[0.00649(9874)]$

→ $= 15.04-64.082$

→ $= -49.042^{\circ} C$

now,

→ $P_o = 101.29[\frac{(-49.042+273.1)}{288.08} ]^{(5.256)}$

→ $= 27.074$

hence,

→ The pressure differential will be:

= $122-27$

= $95 \ kPa$

Thus the above solution is correct.

What steps would you take to design an improved toothpaste container?

algol [13]

Answer:

A. Identify the need, recognize limitations of current toothpaste containers, and then brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing

Explanation:

To design an improved toothpaste container, we must identify the needs of the customer, one of the major need is to make the container attractive to the sight. This is the first thing that will prompt a customer to wanting to buy the product (The reflectance/appearance).

Then recognize the limitation of the current design, what needed change. This will help in determining what is needed to be included and what should be removed based on identified customers need.

The last step is to brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing designs. Get ideas from other colleagues because there is a saying that two heads are better than one. This will help in coming to a reasonable conclusion on the new design after taking careful consideration of people's opinion.

A steel bar 110 mm long and having a square cross section 22 mm on an edge is pulled in tension with a load of 89,000 N, and exp

iragen [17]

Answer:

Elastic modulus of steel = 202.27 GPa

Explanation:

given data

long = 110 mm = 0.11 m

cross section 22 mm = 0.022 m

load = 89,000 N

elongation = 0.10 mm = 1 × $10^{-4}$ m
