Disadvantage: <span>Living outside the city makes having a car almost a requirement. Businesses, schools, services, and recreational areas are all spread out at a distance, not to mention the need to commute to work.

Advantage: </span><span>The cost of a house with a yard in the suburbs is often less than the cost of a condominium or quality apartment in the city. </span>

If gravity between the Sun and Earth suddenly vanished, Earth would continue moving in
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Earth would continue moving by uniform motion, with constant velocity, in a straight line

Explanation:

The question can be answered by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which states that:

"an object keeps its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external net force different from zero"

This means that if there are no forces acting on an object, the object stays at rest (if it was not moving previously) or it continues moving with same velocity (if it was already moving) in a straight line.

In this problem, the Earth is initially moving around the Sun, with a certain tangential velocity v. When the Sun disappears, the force of gravity that was keeping the Earth in circular motion disappears too: therefore, there are no more forces acting on the Earth, and so by the 1st law of Newton, the Earth will continue moving with same velocity v in a straight line.

A fan is to accelerate quiescent air to a velocity of 12.5 m/s at a rate of 9 m3/s. Determine the minimum power that must be sup
Reika [66]

Answer:

= 829.69 Watt

≅ 830 Watt

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of air flow = 12.5m/s

Rate of flow of air = 9m³/s

Density of air = 1.18kg/m³

power by kinetic energy = 1/2(mv²)

mass = density × volume

m = 1.18 × 9

  = 10.62 kg/s

power = 1/2 mV²

           = 1/2 (10.62 × 12.5²)

           = 829.69 Watt

The internal shear force V at a certain section of a steel beam is 80 kN, and the moment of inertia is 64,900,000 . Determine th
Luba_88 [7]

Here is the complete question

The internal shear force V at a certain section of a steel beam is 80 kN, and the moment of inertia is 64,900,000 . Determine the horizontal shear stress at point H, which is located L  = 20 mm below the centriod

The missing image which is the remaining part of this question is attached in the image below.

Answer:

The horizontal shear stress at point H is  \mathbf{\tau_H \approx  42.604 \ N/mm^2}

Explanation:

Given that :

The internal shear force V  =  80 kN = 80 × 10³ N

The moment of inertia = 64,900,000

The length = 20 mm below the centriod

The horizontal shear stress  \tau can be calculated by using the equation:

\tau = \dfrac{VQ}{Ib}

where;

Q = moment of area above or below the point H

b = thickness of the beam = 10  mm

From the centroid ;

Q = Q_1 + Q_{2}

Q = A_1y_1 + A_{2}y_{2}  

Q = ( ( 70 × 10) × (55) + ( 210 × 15) (90 + 15/2) ) mm³

Q = ( ( 700) × (55) + ( 3150 ) ( 97.5)  ) mm³

Q = ( 38500 +  307125 ) mm³

Q = 345625 mm³

\tau_H = \dfrac{VQ}{Ib}

\tau_H = \dfrac{80*10^3  * 345625}{64900000*10 }

\tau_H = \dfrac{2.765*10^{10}}{649000000 }

\tau_H = 42.60400616 \ N/mm^2

\mathbf{\tau_H \approx  42.604 \ N/mm^2}

The horizontal shear stress at point H is  \mathbf{\tau_H \approx  42.604 \ N/mm^2}

If the period of a clock signal is 500 ps, the frequency is:_____
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the signal is 2 GHz

Explanation:

Given;

period of the clock signal, T = 500 ps = 500 x 10⁻¹² s

the frequency of the signal is given by;

F= \frac{1}{T}\\\\F = \frac{1}{500*10^{-12}}\\\\F = 2*10^{9} \ Hz

F = 2 GHz

Therefore, the frequency of the signal is 2 x 10⁹ Hz or 2 GHz
