What forces affect bridges?
Torsion, compression, and tension
What force is acted on by another?
Forces don't act on other forces - forces act on objects.
What is some examples of long range force?
Long range forces are forces that act over a long distance, like electric forces, magnetic forces, or gravity.Long range forces are forces that act over a long distance, like electric forces, magnetic forces, or gravity.Long range forces are forces that act over a long distance, like electric forces, magnetic forces, or gravity.Long range forces are forces that act over a long distance, like electric forces, magnetic forces, or gravity.
Is a body in motion stays in motion?
That depends. If no forces act on the object, it will. If forces do act on the objects, such forces may change the object's velocity.
When 2 forces act in the same direction do the forces cancel each other out?
No. When two forces act in the same direction, they can be added together. It is only when two identical forces act in opposite directions that they cancel each other out.
What forces act upon arch bridges?
Tension and compression are the two forces that act upon a bridge.
What are the two types of suspension bridges found in the world?
Cantilever bridgesCable stayed bridges
How much does a cantilever bridge cost?
cantilever bridges cost somewhere between a couple million to about $1 billion.
Is howrah bridge a cantilever bridge?
Yes, it is a cantilever bridge and it is one of the finest of such cantilever bridges of the world.Please see related links for some of the Howrah bridge technical details.
Did Romans build cantilever bridges?
from what i remember from 6th grade they didn't.
What are two types of cantilever bridge?
The Forth Railway Bridge in Scotland and the Quebec Bridge in Canada are both famous examples of cantilever bridges.
List three structures that make use of trusses?
bridges and cantilever and windows
What are the 6 types of bridges?
suspension, beam, cantilever, arch bridges. Hope this helps
5 famous cantilever bridges?
I only know one famous cantilever bridges. One is close to Chippiwa Park and another is by the water. TEHE Forth Bridge (Scotland): perhaps the world's most well-known thanks to its size and very distinctive shape.
Why do they build cantilever bridges?
because they cost only $1 million each and they are able to span long distances
What is Cable-stayed bridge function?
The cable-stayed bridge is a type of bridge that is optimal for spans longer than is practical for cantilever bridges, and shorter than is economical for suspension bridges.
How do forces act on truss bridges?
There are many forces acting on a truss bridge compression, tension, and torsion. The truss bridge uses equilateral triangles to spread out the stress of the load on these forces along the hold structure.
