- True or false Statics mechanics allows us to represent distributed loads as a concentrated force located at the centroid of the distributed load.arrow_forwardHelium has a molecular weight of 4.003. What is theweight of 2 m 3 of helium at 1 atm and 20 ° C?( a ) 3.3 N, ( b ) 6.5 N, ( c ) 11.8 N, ( d ) 23.5 N, ( e ) 94.2 Narrow_forwardConsider a hollow sphere of radii h and 3h, interior and exterior respectively. The mass density in the sphere is ρ = k / r, Kg / m³, where k is a constant, and r is the distance from the center of the sphere to an arbitrary point within it. If k = 3 m, find the gravitational field of the distribution at a point (P), on the x-axis, located at a distance of 4h, measured with respect to the center of the sphere. Ans: 5.655e-10arrow_forward

Water flows through a pipe of varying cross-section and varying elevation at the rate of 22.2m3/min. At one section of the pipe 3 m from the ground, the radius of the pipe is 36 cm and the pressure is 12 N/cm^2.What is the pressure at a section where the radius of the pipe is 18cm and is 0.7 m from the ground level?A. 136 123 N/m2 B. 50 N/cm2 C. 750 000 N/m2 D. 12 N/cm2arrow_forwardFluid runs through a drainage pipe with a 10-cm radius and a length of 30m (3000cm). The velocity of the fluid gradually decreases from the center of the pipe toward the edges as a result of friction with the walls of the pipe.

- A higher-order differential equation given as y" + p(x)y' g (x)y = O is a homogenous equation, even if p(x) = 0. A higher-order differential equation given as y" + p(x)y' + q(x)y = 0 is also a homogenous equation, even if g(x) = 0. O Only first statement is true. O Only second statement is true. O Both first and second statements are true. O Both first and second statements are false.arrow_forward12.
