What does the line strung between the batter boards represent?

2 answers:

7 0

Batter boards (or battre boards, Sometimes mispronounced as "battle boads") are temporary frames, set beyond the corners of a planned foundation at precise elevations. These batter boards are then used to hold layout lines (construction twine) to indicate the limits (edges and corners) of the foundation.

Batter boards are temporary boards set up so string lines can be attached between them. These lines represent the final height, length and depth of the slab. Drive some stakes into the ground next to the batter boards you just placed on the ground.

What are the factors of production in business? Land, labor, and capital land, capital, and interest land, labor, and customer b

kozerog [31]

Answer:

 Land, labor, and capital

Explanation:

The factors of production are the resources that are used to produce goods and services.

By definition resources are scarce.

Land includes everything that comes from the land, that can be used as raw material to produce other materials; for instance, water, minerals, wood.

Labor is the work done by anybody, not just at a factory but at any enterpise that produce a good or a service. For instance, the work done by a person in a bank or a restaurant.

Capital is the facilites (buildings), machinery, equipments, tools that the persons use to produce goods or services. For instance, a computer, a chemical reactor, or a pencil.

Nowadays, also entrepreneurship is included as a factor of production, since it is the innovative skill of the entrepeneurs to combine land, labor and capital what permit the production of good and services.

g A steel water pipe has an inner diameter of 12 in. and a wall thickness of 0.25 in. Determine the longitudinal and hoop stress

zvonat [6]

Answer:

a) $\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 0}$

b) $\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}$

Explanation:

Given that:

diameter d = 12 in

thickness t = 0.25 in

the radius = d/2 = 12 / 2 = 6 in

r/t = 6/0.25 = 24

24 > 10

Using the thin wall cylinder formula;

The valve A is opened and the flowing water has a pressure P of 200 psi.

So;

$\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

$\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = 0$

$\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{200(12)}{2(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}$

b)The valve A is closed and the water pressure P is 250 psi.

where P = 250 psi

$\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

$\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t}$

$\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{250*(12)}{2(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}$

$\sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t} \\ \\ \sigma _2 = \frac{250(12)}{4(0.25)}$

$\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}$

Assume the work done compressing the He gas is -63 kJ and the internal energy change of the gas is 79 kJ. What is the heat loss

klemol [59]

Answer:

Heat gain of 142 kJ

Explanation:

We can see that job done by compressing the He gas is negative, it means that the sign convention we are going to use is negative for all the work done by the gas and positive for all the job done to the gas. With that being said, the first law of thermodynamics equation will help us to solve this problem.

Δ $U = Q + W$ ⇒ $Q =$ Δ $U -W$

$Q = 79 - (-63) = 142 kJ$

Therefore, the gas gained heat by an amount of 142 kJ.
