Answer:

In series:

$\frac{1}{r} = \frac{1}{r_{1} } + \frac{1}{r _{2} } + \frac{1}{r_{3} }$

$\frac{1}{r} = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{8} \\ \\ \frac{1}{r} = \frac{13}{24} \\ \\ r = \frac{24}{13} \\ { \underline{r = 1.85 \: Ω}}$

In parallel:

$r = r _{1} + r _{2} + r _{3} \\ r = 4 + 6 + 8 \\ r = 18Ω$

Answer:

It made information easily accessible and ensured individuals became more vast in subject topics of interest.

Explanation:

Information revolution is different and unique and it came with the advent of computers and the internet. A lot of information is stored there which is too large and complex for the human brain.This helped people to access information without much stress as informations about almost every subject is on the Internet.

Individuals can check the informations up and become more vast in interested topics.

A 100 ft long steel wire has a cross-sectional area of 0.0144 in.2. When a force of 270 lb is applied to the wire, its length in

blondinia [14]

Answer:

(a) The stress on the steel wire is 19,000 Psi

(b) The strain on the steel wire is 0.00063

Explanation:

Given;

length of steel wire, L = 100 ft

cross-sectional area, A = 0.0144 in²

applied force, F = 270 lb

extension of the wire, e = 0.75 in

Part (A) The stress on the steel wire;

δ = F/A

= 270 / 0.0144

δ = 18750 lb/in² = 19,000 Psi

Part (B) The strain on the steel wire;

σ = e/ L

L = 100 ft = 1200 in

σ = 0.75 / 1200

σ = 0.00063

Part (C) The modulus of elasticity of the steel

E = δ/σ

= 19,000 / 0.00063

E = 30,000,000 Psi

A hawser is wrapped two full turns around a bollard. By exerting an 80-lb force on the free end of the hawser, a dockworker can

Brut [27]

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a) ln(T2/T1)=μβ β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb T1=80 lb μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns

Shows a closed tank holding air and oil to which is connected a U-tube mercury manometer and a pressure gage. Determine the read

damaskus [11]

Answer:

$P_2-P_1=27209h$

Explanation:

For pressure gage we can determine this by saying:

The closed tank with oil and air has a pressure of P₁ and the pressure of oil at a certain height in the U-tube on mercury is p₁gh₁. The pressure of mercury on the air in pressure gauge is p₂gh₂. The pressure of the gage is P₂.

$P_1+p_1gh_1=p_2_gh_2+P_2$

We want to work out P₁-P₂: Heights aren't given so we can solve it in terms of height: assuming h₁=h₂=h

$P_1-P_2=p_1gh_1-p_2gh_2=(55)\cdot{32.2}h-845\cdot{32.2}h$

$P_2-P_1=27209h$
