A joint created by welding is __________ the original metal.
as strong or stronger than
The joint created by welding is as strong or stronger than the original metal.
On this circle, line segment CD is the:
radius
A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
A factor is a positive __________ that divides evenly into a given number.
integer
A factor is a positive integer that divides evenly into a given number. For example, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.
Solve 2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
2 + (5 + 2) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
P: 2 + (7) ÷ 5 x 3 - 42
E: 2 + 7 ÷ 5 x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{7}{5} \) x 3 - 16
MD: 2 + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{10}{5} \) + \( \frac{21}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31}{5} \) - 16
AS: \( \frac{31 - 80}{5} \)
\( \frac{-49}{5} \)
-9\(\frac{4}{5}\)
The fluid reservoir stores the __________ that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
brake fluid
The fluid reservoir stores the brake fluid that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
What type of current flows in only one direction in a circuit?
direct
Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of direct current (DC) is a battery.
What type of load creates different stresses at different locations on a structure?
non-uniformly distributed load
A concentrated load acts on a relatively small area of a structure, a static uniformly distributed load doesn't create specific stress points or vary with time, a dynamic load varies with time or affects a structure that experiences a high degree of movement, an impact load is sudden and for a relatively short duration and a non-uniformly distributed load creates different stresses at different locations on a structure.
When it comes to force, mass and acceleration have what kind of relationship?
linear
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that "The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object." This Law describes the linear relationship between mass and acceleration when it comes to force and leads to the formula F = ma or force equals mass multiplied by rate of acceleration.
