What is the best type of ground to put a building on?
Firm ground not suffering from shrinkage or expansion. Rock is the firmest. Sandy ground will require piled foundations. Clay will require investigation into shrinkage with the seasons. Avoid building near tall trees - especially poplars that have large root networks that can affect the foundations over time.
A 24-foot ladder is placed against a vertical wall of a building with the bottom of the ladder standing on level ground 22 feet from the basse of the building?
56
Supports the weight of the building?
the bricks at the bottom supports it from tilting and falling to the ground unless there is an earthquake
How do you load calculate in building?
Building load is calculated by computing the volume of built masses and multiplying by standard weight. Divide it by the area of the surfaces of the masses which are touching the ground.
What should be the transformer to building separation distance for fire suppression?
Depends on size of transformer and type (dry,mineral oil, silicone) as well as ground slope and building construction.
If you were to take two identical objects and drop one off a building while at the same time throwing the other out horizontally off the same building which would hit the ground first?
It really depends on a few key factors: wind velocity, and how hard you throw the object horizontally off of the building.
2 balls dropped horizontally and vertically.Which ball strikes ground first why?
Please describe how you drop something 'horizontally'
Will a bullet travel the same distance straight up that it would horizontally?
No. The horizontal distance depends on how close the the ground the gun is. From the firing position, a bullet dropped to the ground will strike the ground in the same time as a bullet shot horizontally forward.
Which will hit the ground first a ball thrown horizontally at 2 meters per second off a building 20 m high or a ball dropped by a hand at the same height?
They should reach the ground together, since their initial vertical speed is the same, namely zero.
What are plants that grow horizontally on the ground are called?
Plants that grow horizontally on the ground are called "ground cover plants." These plants are often used in landscaping to cover bare soil, prevent erosion, and add aesthetic value to a garden or yard. Examples include creeping thyme, vinca, and moss.
Which fault moves ground horizontally?
A strike-slip fault moves ground horizontally. This type of fault occurs when rocks on either side of the fault slide past each other horizontally. The San Andreas Fault in California is a well-known example of a strike-slip fault.
A rock is dropped at the same instant that a ball in the same elevation is thrown horizontally which will have the greater speed when it reaches ground level?
The rock will have a greater speed when it reaches the ground level compared to the ball thrown horizontally because the rock will be accelerated by gravity as it falls vertically, while the ball thrown horizontally will only have its initial horizontal velocity.
What were the Swedish famous for building in America?
Swedish settlers in early North America introduced the style of log cabin construction that we typically associate with the term "log cabin" in which the logs were said horizontally and stacked rather than placed vertically in the ground.
Will an object travel farther if launched from a higher elevation for example will I travel farther horizontally if I jump horizontally from a higher elevation versus ground level?
Yes, an object will travel farther horizontally if launched from a higher elevation due to having more initial potential energy which can be converted into kinetic energy. This is known as the principle of conservation of energy. So, jumping horizontally from a higher elevation will allow you to travel farther than if you were to jump from ground level.
How do you signal you're turning left with your hand?
Hold your left arm out horizontally - with your palm perpendicular to the ground.
True or false an object that is dropped will hit the ground before an object that is thrown horizontally from the same height?
False, provided the drop occurs no sooner than the throw, and the ground is flat .
If gravity did not effect the path of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would travel horizontally?
If gravity did not affect a horizontally thrown ball, it would travel in a straight line horizontally at a constant velocity. Gravity only acts vertically, causing the ball to fall towards the ground, so without this vertical force, the horizontal motion would remain unaffected.
