Ashort wooden post (3.5 in x 3.5 in) is required to support an entirely compressive load of 4000 lb. determine the stress in the post for the following lumber species: (a) southern yellow pine (b) parallam psl column

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

1kg of water contained in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series from an initial state where the pressure is 3.0 bar and the temperature is 150°c process 1-2: the water is compressed isothermally to a volume of 0.25 m^3 with 120 kj of work being done to the system. process 2-3: the water is heated at constant volume to a final pressure of 10 bar. a. find the change in internal energy for the system. b. calculate the amount of heat transferred, in kj. c. sketch both processes on a t-v diagram. (196.33 kj/kg, 76.33 kj)

Figure out the odd statement about ceramics in the following (a) good insulators of heat and electricity (b) usually less desire than metals (c) ductile in nature (d) contains both metallic and nonmetallic elements
