What materials have been used in the history of ship building?
Boats and ships can be made of just about anything as long as the vessel has an average density less than water and does not immediately dissolve (e.g. salt, paper pulp).
Most modern ships are made of steel or aluminum. Boats are made of metal, wood, plastic, or fiberglass. The earliest boats were made of logs or woven reeds.
What is the volume of a blast furnace?
Useful Volume of Blast Furnace is the volume of the furnace from the throat level to the level where the taphole is placed. This is known the way basically because that is the region where the useful products from Blast furnace are present.
Give several examples of where low carbon steel may be use?
Low carbon steels are the most common form of steel, containing approx. 0.05 to 0.15% of carbon. We can use it for:
- Car bodies
- Screw nuts
- Bolts
- Beams for buildings and bridges
- plate for line pipe
- automotiveheet applications
How is the flow of oil in a hydraulic system measured?
The flow of oil in an hydraulic system can be compaired to any water system; in both systems you will find the tank (place where the liquid is store), the conduits or channels through which the liquid will travel (pipes), the pump (to impulse the liquid through long distances or to de a job such as filling a cylinder (piston) or pushing hot or cold water through an air conditioning system in a building, filters (to ensure purity of the liquid), and finally you may have temperature controls. The oil characteristics of a hydraulic system are such that permits the oil to perform amazing work such as keeping a building structure level (this is the case at the outshore airport of Tokyo, which keeps sinking into the see bed and by means of hydraulic systems they turn the support of the structure hydraulic jacks as needed to keep the whole airport level.
The brakes in any car is another example of a hydraulic system where the flow of oil impulse by the brake pedal and or the ABS pump will force the pads of the brakes grab the wheel discs hindering the wheels from turning.
The power steering in any car is another example of oil flowing trough pipes to help the driver turn the car around.
What is the difference between AC and AD?
AC is alternating current and AD is Anno Domini or after Christ.
What is the difference between petroleum engineering and oil and gas engineering?
I think petroleum engineering has to do with the discovery of crude oil[hydrocarbons] in it's dark,sticky,viscous stage and lifting it to the surface and passing it to the refineries for the extraction of other components viz petroleum gases,petrol,kerosene . While gas and oil engineering has to do with reserving,distribution of refined oil and gas from crude oil to depots. Ismail Sani Ali.
What is made out of thermosetting?
The most familiar use of thermosetting plastic is the heat-resistant handle on metal cookware. It is also used for bottle caps, knobs and handles, and laminated counter tops. Thermosetting plastics retain their shape and strength even when heated.
What are the examples of electronic tools and equipments and their functions?
One example of a circuit device is a switch. It is used to stop and start current flow in a circuit.
What is the process of making laminated glass?
Laminated glass is produced by bonding two or more layers of ordinary annealed glass together with a plastic interlayer, usually polyvinyl butyral (PVB). The PVB is sandwiched by the glass which is passed through rollers to expel any air pockets and form the initial bond then heated to around 70

What is difference between AC and DC load line?
A dc load line is formed by joining the 2 points wherin the slope is equal to the inverse of the load resistance.. whereas the ac load lin has a different slope... and it intersects the dc load line at the quiescent point.
What are the reference or datum points on a cnc lathe machine?
depending on machine-x and z zero machine reference points are in the upper right hand corner(away from workpiece) whereas your programmable origin point used for your specific program is completely up to you.
Performance of a CPU s can be measured & compared in terms of its 'number of millions of instructions it could execute in a second' i.e., MIPS. Out of the number of MIPS, how much usefull/successfull instructions are executed by a CPU is called its 'throughput'.
Answer 2
- General: Productivity of a machine, procedure, process, or system over a unit period, expressed in a figure-of-merit or a term meaningful in the given context, such as output per hour, cash turnover, number of orders shipped.
- Computing: Measure of a computer system's overall performance in sending data through all its components, such as the processor, buses, storage devices. Throughput is more meaningful indicator of system performance than raw clock speed (now measured in giga hertz) advertised by computer vendors.
- Data communications: Measure of the efficiency of a network expressed as the data transfer rate of useful and non-redundant information. It depends on factors such as bandwidth, linecongestion, error correction, etc
What is the current carrying capacity of 240 Sq mm?
A 240 sq. mm. cable has a diameter of
d=square root of 4A/3.14
d= 2(square root of A/3.14)
= 2(square root of 240/3.14
=17.48 mm.
Therefore your cable has a capacity of only 515 amperes in free air. If installed in a duct with three conductors your conductor will have an ampacity of only 350 ampers.
Alternative AnswerThe answer is not straightforward, because it depends upon various factors such as the material from which the conductor is manufactured (copper or aluminium), the type of insulation employed, and the configuration of the cable (how many conductors), installation method, etc.
An Appendix to BS 7671:2008 Requirements for Electrical Installations, lists cable types according to these various factors, and specifies their current ratings.
What is the disadvantages of movable pulleys?
movable pulleys sometimes don't have a directional advantage so you have to pull up and you can't use a weight as the effort and whoever said this its wrong so next time USE THE TEXT BOOK STUPID PERSON sorry about this my friend can be mean.
What is Difference between static and dynamic website?
Static Websites
Static means "constant--never changing". A static website contains Web pages with fixed content. Each page is coded in HTML and displays the same information to every visitor.
Dynamic Websites
dynamic is "changing". You can make dynamic changes to a database without having to shutdown the instance and restart for the changes to take effect. However, if you do not update the control file, when you shutdown and startup, the dynamic change is gone--it wasn't permanent.
- A site whose construction is controlled by an application server processed by server side scripts.
Before use an ordinary rivet is just a short cylinder of metal. The two sheets to be joined are positioned as desired and then held together temporarily so that a hole can be bored through them slightly larger than the diameter of the rivet. The rivet is inserted so that part of it extends on each side of the two plates. Now these parts of the rivet can be simultaneously rounded over so that the two ends of the rivet make shapes like the cap of a mushroom on either side of the plates so that they can no longer be taken apart.
The link shows several finished examples.
The majority of air is comprised of nitrogen. N2 has an atomic mass of 28, then any gas with a molar mass greater than 28 will sink. Elemental gasses that fit this criteria is Chlorine, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
Difference between carbon steel and stainless steel knives?
It depends on the type of stainless steel you are referring to. Austenite and ferritic stainless is not heat treatable in which case carbon steel could be made far harder. However..martensitic stainless steels are heat treatable in which case they could be made harder depending on the alloy contents. Generally the more carbon a steel contains, the harder it can be made. Chromium; a key ingrediant in stainless steels, can also increase hardenability.
