Answer:

answer below:

Explanation:

Before the Industrial Revolution, transportation relied on animals (like horses pulling a cart) and boats. Travel was slow and difficult. It could take months to travel across the United States in the early 1800s before industrial revolution

The Industrial Revolution completely changed the way people traveled and how goods were transported.

the problem of traveling upstream was solved during the industrial revolution by the steam engine. in order to make better use of water transportation, canals were build to connect rivers, lakes and oceans. the invention of the railroad and the steam powered locomotive opened up a whole new world in transportation. even with steamboats and railroads, people still needed a better wat to travel between rivers and train stations. a new process called the "macadam " process was used to create smooth gravel roads

I hope this helps a bit.

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$z_{2} = 91.640\,m$

Explanation:

The phenomenon can be modelled after the Bernoulli's Principle, in which the sum of heads related to pressure and kinetic energy on ground level is equal to the head related to gravity.

$\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}= z_{2}+\frac{P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g}$

The velocity of water delivered by the fire hose is:

$v_{1} = \frac{(300\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot(\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.3\,m)^{2}}$

$v_{1} = 0.267\,\frac{m}{s}$

The maximum height is cleared in the Bernoulli's equation:

$z_{2}= \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}$

$z_{2}= \frac{1\times 10^{6}\,Pa-101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa}{(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} + \frac{(0.267\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}$

$z_{2} = 91.640\,m$

A simple undamped spring-mass system is set into motion from rest by giving it an initial velocity of 100 mm/s. It oscillates wi

____ [38]

Answer:

f=1.59 Hz

Explanation:

Given that

Simple undamped system means ,system does not consists any damper.If system consists damper then it is damped spring mass system.

Velocity = 100 mm/s

Maximum amplitude = 10 mm

We know that for a simple undamped system spring mass system

$V_{max}=\omega A$

now by putting the values

$V_{max}=\omega A$

100 = ω x 10

ω = 10 rad/s

We also know that

ω=2π f

10 = 2 x π x f

f=1.59 Hz

So the natural frequency will be f=1.59 Hz.
