Best Answer

Making employees work without any protection from airborne particles while the workplace undergoes extensive renovation would be an OSHA violation only if the concentration of the airborne particles was greater than the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL). While there are a few rough rules of thumb for assessing particle concentration, the only sure way of determining whether the OSHA PEL is being exceeded is to measure the amount of particles in the air.

Is mass is extensive or intensive?

Mass is an extensive property. Because it depends upon on no of particles. No particles changes mass changes.

An air shower is an extensive cascade of ionized particles formed by the entry of a cosmic ray into the atmosphere.


Is potential energy intensive or extensive property?

an intensive property is the one that is independent from the mass of number of particles in a system while an extensive proeprty depends on them. Energy (e.g. heat) is a property that depend on the mass or the number of particles in a system. In other words, energy is an extensive property.

Why internal energy is extensive?

Enthalpy is an extensive quantity because an extensive quantity depends on the size of the molecule or the number of moles (how much of the molecule you have). Therefore think of a handful of gunpower vs. a storage room full of gunpower. Which reaction will have more enthalpy change? Yes, the room full of gunpower because there is more gunpowder in the reaction. This is an example of why enthalpy is an extensive quantity. Hope you understand now.

Is copper tubing an extensive property or intensive property?

The question is ridiculous. An extensive property is one that depends on the size or number of particles in a system such as mass or volume. An intrinsic property is one that doesn't depend on size or number of particles like density, specific heat capacity or boiling point.So, knowing that... you must agree. This question is ridiculous. Copper tubing is no more a property of a system than a pickup truck is an flavor of soda.


Is mass an extensive physical property?

Mass is not an intensive property, it is an extensive property, i.e. the mass of a system made of two parts A and B is equal to the mass of A plus the mass of B. An intensive property (e.g. pressure or temperature) is one in which the value of the property for the entire system is equal to the value of the property for any of the subsystems. So, you probably wanted to ask why mass is an extensive property. This is a consequence of the law of gravity and of the fact that forces add up to make a resultant force. The total gravitational force upon a body X by two other bodies A and B is the sum of the force exerted by A and the force exerted by B. It's as if we have a combined body with the mass of A plus the mass of B, and thus mass is extensive.

Do you need a safety mask for metal grinding?

When grinding metal you should wear eye protection. A mask to filter metal particles from the air you breath may be appropriate if you are doing work that will release very small metal particles, and if the metal is chemically hazardous.
