A client wants Mila’s team to maximize the energy efficiency of their new office building. The client is interested in acquiring

a large plot of land for the new building in a suburban area north of a major city. From the city, the main access to this area is by a couple of major roads that have heavy traffic at almost all times of day. The client’s current building is easier to access and large enough for projected staffing needs, but it is also old, ugly, and high in maintenance costs. How should Mila’s team best approach this project while adhering to principles of green building?
Agree to build on the land the client is interested in acquiring and concentrate on maximizing the efficiency advantages of the new building.

Persuade the client to tear down the existing building instead and build a new high-efficiency building from the ground up in the same spot.

Persuade the client to renovate their existing building both aesthetically and in terms of efficiency and utility of function.

Find a different location for the new building in a more advantageous spot both in terms of transportation access but also in taking advantage of daylighting.

Answer:

Persuade the client to renovate their existing building both aesthetically and in terms of efficiency and utility of function.

Explanation:

Just would not make sense to tear the building down just to rebuild it when it can be restored.

Answer:

equivalent stiffness is 136906.78 N/m

damping constant is 718.96 N.s/m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 120 kg

amplitude = 120 N

frequency = 320 r/min

displacement = 5 mm

to find out

equivalent stiffness and damping

solution

we will apply here frequency formula that is

frequency ω = ω(n) √(1-∈ ²)      ......................1

here  ω(n) is natural frequency i.e = √(k/m)

so from equation 1

320×2π/60 = √(k/120) × √(1-2∈²)

k × ( 1 - 2∈²) = 33.51² ×120

k × ( 1 - 2∈²) = 134752.99    .....................2

and here amplitude ( max ) of displacement is express as

displacement = force / k  ×  (  \frac{1}{2\varepsilon \sqrt{1-\varepsilon ^2}})

put here value

0.005 = 120/k   ×  (  \frac{1}{2\varepsilon \sqrt{1-\varepsilon ^2}})  

k ×∈ × √(1-2∈²) = 1200       ......................3

so by equation 3 and 2

\frac{k\varepsilon \sqrt{1-\varepsilon^2})}{k(1-2\varepsilon^2)} = \frac{12000}{134752.99}

\varepsilon^{2} - \varepsilon^{4}  = 7.929 * 10^{-3} - 0.01585 * \varepsilon^{2}

solve it and we get

∈ = 1.00396

and

∈ = 0.08869

here small value we will consider so

by equation 2 we get

k × ( 1 - 2(0.08869)²) = 134752.99

k  = 136906.78 N/m

so equivalent stiffness is 136906.78 N/m

and

damping is express as

damping = 2∈ √(mk)

put here all value

damping = 2(0.08869) √(120×136906.78)

so damping constant is 718.96 N.s/m

Would be much appreciated if someone could help with this will give brainiest.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:   both mm and inches on each dimension in a sketch (with the main dimension in one format and the other in brackets below it), in the way you can have dual dimensions shown when detailing an idw view.

personally think it would look a mess/cluttered with even more text all over the sketch environment, but everyone's differenent.

If it's any help - you know you can enter dimensions in either format?  If you're working in mm you can still dimension a line and type "2in" and vice-versa.  Probably know this already, but no harm saying it, just in case.

You can enter the units directly in or mm and Inventor will convert to current document settings (which  you can change - maybe someone can come up with a simple toggle icon to toggle the document settings).  Tools>Document Settings>Units

Unlike SolidWorks when you edit the dimension the original entry shows in the dialog box so it makes it easy to keep track of different units even if they aren't always displayed.  (SWx does the conversion or equation and then that is what you get.)

I work quite a bit in inch and metric and combination (ex metric frame motor on inch machine) and it doesn't seem to be a real difficulty to me.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

answers:

1. Chemical engineering is most difficult because it's a mix of physics, chemistry and math

2. Stoichiometry is so important because it shows how materials react, interact and play off each other

3. Yes I think consumers would notice if process control standards were not met. for example medicines, when people take Tylenol or cold pills, if the amount of time it took to kick it becomes longer, people will become aware that the product is not consistent and reliable.

4. i have no idea sorry :(

5. This is explaining how there are rules and regulations to make the workplace safe. it can be accomplished by following those rules and regulations
