TRUE OR FALSE
1.) In rheology, food materials of higher viscosity have higher resistance to flow.
2.) Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a unit mass of an object one degree higher without change of phase
3.) Surface area, is related to size but also depends on particle shape.
4.) Size can be correlated with weight given that the material has more or less uniform composition.
5.) Latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat that must be removed to convert water to ice and is also the same as the amount of heat added to convert ice to water.
True or False
1. Inhalation is the most common way for a chemical to enter the body.
2. The first step of caring for a worker suffering from smoke inhalation is to provide the worker with 100% oxygen.
3. The employer is responsible for developing a written permit space program and ensuring its accessibility to relevant employees and contractors.
4. Even if a smoke inhalation victim is not negatively affected in the short term, symptoms can progress at a later date and lead to illness or even death.

Thank you!!!arrow_forwardplease help solve A-F. thank you You are an engineer working on a project and your prototype has failed prematurely. You question whether or not a key component of the prototype was manufactured with the correct material. There are two way to check for the material properties. The first way is to have a material certification done to confirm the exact material composition. This will take some time. The second method to confirm the material properties is to make an ASTM test sample and test for the material properties. This tensile test was completed on a test sample with an initial diameter of .501” and an initial length of 2”. The Load-Deflection data for this tensile test is below.

- Modified true of false. Write True if the statement is true. Otherwise, write False and change the underline words to make the statement true. 1 Pa= 1 N•m2 The term fluid refers to liquids and gases. The velocity head in fluid flow has units of meter. Bernoulli’s equation can be derived from the law of conservation of energy. The continuity principle is an expression of the law of conservation of energy. An object displaces 30 N of water. The buoyant force of water on the object is 30 N. As a result of a Bernoulli’s principle, a hydraulic press can lift large masses with a small force. The flow rate of a fluid in a pipe is the speed of the fluid multiplied by the cross-sectional area of the pipe. A horizontal pipe has a constriction. For water flowing from a wide pipe to the constricted pipe, the flow rate decreases. Block A has a density of p. Block B has three times the mass of Block A but has the same volume. The density of block B is 3p.arrow_forwardGuardrail is an example of protective equipment which prevent people from falling.
