- Question
The stability triangle is used to describe
- Correct Answer
- The stability triangle is used to describe the movement of center of gravity of a load vehicle like trucks If the load is not balanced then it moves and may tip over it If you were to raise a lift truck up and look at its underside, you would see that the support points for the truck are located at points A, B, and C The triangle formed between points A, B, and C is called the Stability Triangle The lift truck will not tip over as long as the center of gravity remains inside the triangle The center of gravity is the point within a lift truck where there is equal weight all around it

Correct Answer: The most commonly thought of hazard in construction. This hazard includes radiation, extreme temperatures, noise, and vibration.
Explanation:
A physical hazard is defined as "A factor within the environment that can harm the body without necessarily touching it."
Vibration and noise are examples of physical hazards.
Physical hazards include but aren't limited to electricity, radiation, pressure, noise, heights and vibration amongst many others.
Correct Answer: a pair of scissors
Explanation:
Any of the basic mechanical devices for applying a force are called simple machines.
There are 6 basic simple machines; the lever, the wheel and axle, the inclined plane, the wedge, the pulley, and the screw. Several of these simple machines are related to each other. But, each has a specific purpose in the world of doing work.
Correct Answer: Both A & B
Correct Answer: Sun
Correct Answer: geothermal energy
Explanation:
Based on conventionality in deriving energy, energy sources could be classified as
Conventional ::
coal, oil, hydro, nuclear, etc... sources which can be used up or exhaustible.
(and)
Non - conventional ::
solar, wind, tidal, geothermal, biogas, etc... sources which are not exhausted.
Among the given options, Geothermal energy is the alternative energy source among all the choices that are given in the question, that is exhaustible.
Correct Answer: Aluminium
Explanation:
Materials that usually allow electricity to pass through them are called Good conductors of electricity.
Conductors conduct electrical current very easily because of their free electrons.
Examples are :: Aluminium, Gold, Copper, Silver
Materials that do not allow or oppose electrical current & make poor conductors are called Insulators.
Examples are :: Glass, Plastic, Wood, Air,...
Correct Answer: Both A & B
Explanation:
Land breezes are more common during winter and fall season. It occurs as it becomes night, the air on the land colls fast and air on the water surface are warmth than that and begin to rise.
Correct Answer: lead-37%, tin-63%
Correct Answer: Both A & B
Explanation:
At any given speed, momentum is directly proportional to mass of an object.
Correct Answer: TRUE
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that in any closed system the mass of the system is neither created nor destroyed over time i.e, the mass cannot be changed overtime.
Hence, the given statement is true.
