Step 1
Since the unit weight of the concrete for the beam is not given in the problem.
Usually the unit weight of concrete is assumed as either 24kN/m3 or 25kN/m3 .
In this problem the unit weight of concrete is assumed as 25kN/m3.
As per Imperial system 25kN/m3 = 0.161 kips/ft3.

Plot the power consumption of an electrical component with a resistance of 145 ohms. Vary the value of the current from zero to 4 amps. Discuss and plot the change in power consumption as the function of current drawn through the component.arrow_forward
