A steel plate d × b is sandwiched rigidly between two timber joists each D × B/2 in section. The moment of resistance of the beam for the same maximum permissible stress $$\sigma $$ in timber and steel will be (where Young's modulus of steel is m times that of the timber).
Simplify : $${{{5 \over 3} \times {7 \over {51}}{\text{ of }}{{17} \over 5} - {1 \over 3}} \over {{2 \over 9} \times {5 \over 7}{\text{ of }}{{28} \over 5} - {2 \over 3}}}$$
A steel strap is serving as a support for the steam pipe. The strap is welded to the pipe and bolted to the ceiling. The junction between the support strut and the ceiling is adiabatic, and the outside temperature of steam pipe is 105 degree Celsius. The strut AB is 60 cm high and AD = BC = 12.5 cm. It is 0.3 cm thick. Workout the rate at which heat is lost to the surrounding air by the support strut. It may be assumed that thermal conductivity for steel is 45 W/m degree, the total outside surface coefficient is 17 W/m2 degree and the surrounding air is at 32 degree Celsius
In the order of the chronological development, the longwall support systems are arranged as
P Powered support
Q Link bar and friction support
R Frame support
S Hydraulic support
The transfer function of a discrete time LTI system is given by

Refractory timber catches fire readily while non-refractory timber does not catch fire readily.
When a part of the timber is affected by dry rot, the unaffected portion of the timber should be painted with a solution of _________
A steel ball (density ρsteel = 7200 kg/m3) is placed in an upward moving liquid AI (density ρal = 2360 kg/m3, viscosity μAl = 1 × 10-3 Pa.s and Reynolds number = 5 × 105). The force (F) exerted on the steel ball is expressed as F = fπR2(ρAl V2/2)
where, f is friction factor (= 0.2), v is the velocity of liquid AI and R is the radius of steel ball.
The force exerted on the steel ball is
