Answer:

True

Explanation:

The reason this is true is that technology has a greater good other than just our phones, technology is how we can create anything from new medicine to a new microwave. So the answer is true because technology has more positive effects than negative effects.

False, there are negative side affects that have just as much if not more impact. One example of this is the effect on natural habit.

2. (Problem 4.60 on main book, diameters different) Water flows steadily through a fire hose and nozzle. The hose is 35 mm diame

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

coupling is in tension

Force = -244.81 N

Explanation:

Diameter of Hose ( D1 ) = 35 mm

Diameter of nozzle ( D2 ) = 25 mm

water gage pressure in hose = 510 kPa

stream leaving the nozzle is uniform

exit speed and pressure = 32 m/s and atmospheric

<u>Determine the force transmitted by the coupling between the nozzle and hose </u>

attached below is the remaining part of the detailed solution

Inlet velocity ( V1 ) = V2 ( D2/D1 )^2

= 32 ( 25 / 35 )^2

= 16.33 m/s

How would you design a wheelchair for wheelchair-using basketball players? Would you make it more or less massive?

emmainna [20.7K]

Less, if it’s too big: hard to control and maneuverability for shooting wouldn’t be that good. a smaller wheelchair allows for faster movement and control, along with easier shooting and upper body movement

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 46.2 MPa and the stress amplitude was 219 MPa.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

a)σ₁ = 265.2 MPa

b)σ₂ = -172.8 MPa

c) $Stress\ ratio =-0.65$

d)Range = 438 MPa

Explanation:

Given that

Mean stress ,σm= 46.2 MPa

Stress amplitude ,σa= 219 MPa

Lets take

Maximum stress level = σ₁

Minimum stress level =σ₂

The mean stress given as

$\sigma_m=\dfrac{\sigma_1+\sigma_2}{2}$

$2\sigma_m={\sigma_1+\sigma_2}$

2 x 46.2 = σ₁ + σ₂

σ₁ + σ₂ = 92.4 MPa --------1

The amplitude stress given as

$\sigma_a=\dfrac{\sigma_1-\sigma_2}{2}$

$2\sigma_a={\sigma_1-\sigma_2}$

2 x 219 = σ₁ - σ₂

σ₁ - σ₂ = 438 MPa --------2

By adding the above equation

2 σ₁ = 530.4

σ₁ = 265.2 MPa

-σ₂ = 438 -265.2 MPa

σ₂ = -172.8 MPa

Stress ratio

$Stress\ ratio =\dfrac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}$

$Stress\ ratio =\dfrac{-172.8}{265.2}$

$Stress\ ratio =-0.65$

Range = 265.2 MPa - ( -172.8 MPa)

Range = 438 MPa

What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley with 3 support ropes?

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The mechanical advantage is 3 to 1

Explanation:

A frictionless pulley with three support ropes carries equal tension on each of the ropes thus;

Tension in each pulley rope = T

Total tension in the 3 ropes = 3 × T = 3·T

Direction of the tension forces on each rope = Unidirectional

Total force provided by the 3 ropes = 3·T

Therefore, a force, T, applied at the end of the rope will result in a lifting force of 3·T

Hence, the mechanical advantage = 3·T to T which is presented as follows;

$Mechanical \ advantage = \dfrac{3 \cdot T}{T} = \dfrac{3}{1}$

The mechanical advantage = 3 to 1.
