A 227 pound compressor is supported by four legs that contact the floor of a machine shop. At the bottom of each leg there is a

circular pad formed from a synthetic material to dampen vibration. The synthetic material will support up to a maximum pressure of 42 psi before deforming. What is the minimum diameter to avoid deforming the material?

Answer:

1.312 in

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Weight of the compressor, W = 227 pound

Number of legs = 4

Maximum pressure = 42 psi

Now,

Let F be the force taken by the legs

Therefore,

W = 4F

or

227 pound = 4F

or

F = 56.75 pounds

Also,

Force = Pressure × Area

or

56.75 pounds = 42 psi × πr²                      [ r is the diameter of one leg]

or

r² = 0.4301

or

r = 0.656

therefore,

diameter = 2r = 2 × 0.656

= 1.312 in

______process in sheet metal is used for producing fluid tight joints. A - Hemming B- Seaming C-Beading D-Roll forming
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

Seaming is an operation in which the edges are folded over another part to achieve the tight fit.

Seaming is generally used to join other parts together.

So, seaming is generally used for producing fluid-tight joints.

This process is used in the food industry on canned goods, metal roofing, and in the automotive industry.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

#Initialise a tuple

team_names = ('Rockets','Raptors','Warriors','Celtics')

print(team_names[0])

print(team_names[1])

print(team_names[2])

print(team_names[3])

Explanation:

The Python code illustrates or printed out the tuple team names at the end of a season.

The code displayed is a function that will display these teams as an output from the program.

In which of the following branches of engineering is the practice not restricted?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) civil engineering.

Explanation:

Civil engineering is a professional engineering program that deals with the construction, design, and maintenance of all the natural and man-made environments including dams, buildings, railways, and roads.

Civil engineering is the branch of engineering that is the practice not restricted because civil engineer is not restricted to academic profession but practice in designing and construction can make someone a professional civil engineer.

Hence, the correct answer is "a)."

The extruder head in a fused- deposition modeling setup has a diameter of 1.25 mm (0.05 in) and produces layers that are 0.25mm
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The time taken will be "1 hour 51 min". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Number of required layers:

= \frac{38}{0.25}

= 152 \ layers

Diameter (d):

= 1.25 mm

Velocity (v):

= 40 mm/s

Now,

The area of one layer will be:

= 38\times 38 \ mm^2

= 1444 \ mm^2

The area covered every \second will be:

= d\times v

= 1.25\times 40

= 50 \ mm^2

The time required to deposit one layer will be:

= \frac{1444}{50}

= 28.88 \ sec

The time required for one layer will be:

= 15 \ sec

∴ Total times required for one layer will be:

= 15+28.88

= 43.88 \ sec

So,

Number of layers = 152

Therefore,

Total time will be:

= 152\times 43.88

= 6669.76 \ sec

= 1 \ hour \ 51 \ min
