Who has the authority to declare a "global emergency"?​

Engineering

lyudmila [28]2 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The World Health Organization declared a global health emergency on Thursday as the coronavirus outbreak spread well beyond China, where it emerged last month.

The move reversed the organization’s decision just a week ago to hold off such a declaration. Since then, there have been thousands of new cases in China and clear evidence of human-to-human transmission in several other countries, including the United States.

All of which warranted a reconsideration by the W.H.O.’s emergency committee, officials said.

The declaration “is not a vote of no confidence in China,” said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the W.H.O.’s director-general. “On the contrary, the W.H.O. continues to have confidence in China’s capacity to control the outbreak.”

A light bulb is switched on and within a few minutes its temperature becomes constant. Is it at equilibrium or steady state.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The temperature attains equilibrium with the surroundings.  

Explanation:

When the light bulb is lighted we know that it's temperature will go on increasing as the filament of the bulb has to  constantly dissipates energy during the time in which it is on. Now this energy is dissipated as heat as we know it, this heat energy is absorbed by the material of the bulb which is usually made up of glass, increasing it's temperature. Now we know that any object with temperature above absolute zero has to dissipate energy in form of radiations.

Thus we conclude that the bulb absorbs as well as dissipates it's absorbed thermal energy. we know that this rate is dependent on the temperature of the bulb thus it the temperature of the bulb does not change we can infer that an equilibrium has been reached in the above 2 processes i.e the rate of energy absorption equals the rate of energy dissipation.

Steady state is the condition when the condition does not change with time no matter whatever the surrounding conditions are.

What is the velocity of flow in an asphalt channel that has a hydraulic radius of 3.404 m, length of 200 m and bed slope of 0.00
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The velocity of flow is 10.0 m/s.

Explanation:

We shall use Manning's equation to calculate the velocity of flow

Velocity of flow by manning's equation is given by

V=\frac{1}{n}R^{2/3}S^{1/2}

where

n = manning's roughness coefficient

R = hydraulic radius

S = bed slope of the channel

We know that for an asphalt channel value of manning's roughness coefficient = 0.016

Applying values in the above equation we obtain velocity of flow as

V=\frac{1}{0.016}\times 3.404^{2/3}\times 0.005^{1/2}\\\\\therefore V=10.000m/s

Consider a resistor made of pure silicon with a cross-sectional area pf 0.5 μm2, and a length of 50 μm. What is the resistance o
lukranit [14]

Answer: 24 pA

Explanation:

As pure silicon is a semiconductor, the resistivity value is strongly dependent of temperature, as the main responsible for conductivity, the number of charge carriers (both electrons and holes) does.

Based on these considerations, we found that at room temperature, pure silicon resistivity can be approximated as 2.1. 10⁵  Ω  cm.

The resistance R of a given resistor, is expressed by the following formula:

R = ρ L / A

Replacing by the values for resistivity, L and A, we have

R = 2.1. 10⁵ Ω  cm. (10⁴ μm/cm). 50 μm/ 0.5 μm2

R = 2.1. 10¹¹ Ω

Assuming that we can apply Ohm´s Law, the current that would pass through this resistor for an applied voltage of 5 V, is as follows:

I = V/R = 5 V / 2.1.10¹¹ Ω = 2.38. 10⁻¹¹ A= 24 pA

A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa √m (50 ksi √in.). If, during
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

0.024 m = 24.07 mm

Explanation:

1) Notation

\sigma_c = tensile stress = 200 Mpa

K = plane strain fracture toughness= 55 Mpa\sqrt{m}

\lambda= length of a surface crack (Variable of interest)

2) Definition and Formulas

The Tensile strength is the ability of a material to withstand a pulling force. It is customarily measured in units (F/A), like the pressure. Is an important concept in engineering, especially in the fields of materials and structural engineering.

By definition we have the following formula for the tensile stress:

\sigma_c=\frac{K}{Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}}   (1)

We are interested on the minimum length of a surface that will lead to a fracture, so we need to solve for \lambda

Multiplying both sides of equation (1) by Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}

\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}=K   (2)

Sequaring both sides of equation (2):

(\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda})^2=(K)^2  

\sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi\lambda=K^2   (3)

Dividing both sides by \sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi we got:

\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{K}{Y\sigma_c}]^2   (4)

Replacing the values into equation (4) we got:

\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{55 Mpa\sqrt{m}}{1.0(200Mpa)}]^2 =0.02407m

3) Final solution

So the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture, would be 24.07 mm or more.
