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.

A computer has a two-level cache. Suppose that 60% of the memory references hit on the first level cache, 35% hit on the second

Andreyy89

Answer:

t=14ns

Explanation:

We make the relation between the specific access time and the memory percentage in each level, so

$60\% \Rightarrow 60/100 = 0.60\\35\% \Rightarrow 35/100 = 0.35\\05\% \Rightarrow 05/100 = 0.05$

$t= 0.6(5) + 0.35(5+15) + 0.05(5+15+60)\\t= 0.6(5) + 0.35(20) + 0.05(80)\\t= 3 + 7 + 4\\t= 14 ns$

Average Access Time is 14 nsec.

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)

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

A rigid tank having 25 m3 volume initially contains air having a density of 1.25 kg/m3, then more air is supplied to the tank fr

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

$\Delta m = 102.25\,kg$

Explanation:

The mass inside the rigid tank before the high pressure stream enters is:

$m_{o} = \rho_{air}\cdot V_{tank}$

$m_{o} = (1.25\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})$

$m_{o} = 31.25\,kg$

The final mass inside the rigid tank is:

$m_{f} = \rho \cdot V_{tank}$

$m_{f} = (5.34\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})$

$m_{f}= 133.5\,kg$

The supplied air mass is:

$\Delta m = m_{f}-m_{o}$

$\Delta m = 133.5\,kg-31.25\,kg$

$\Delta m = 102.25\,kg$
