Q:What is machinery and transport equipment? Give an example of what this is.Information from the CIA world factbook.

It means that the particular country makes it's money by exporting equipment and transport equipment. Machinery could be anything from industrial machines to farm equipment. Transport equipment can be anything from planes and ships to buses and trucks.

Q:Does Santa Claus use any modern machinery in his workshop?

No, santa is all about tradition and doing things the old way. He doesn't need to update as the elves have multiplied over the years there is no shortage of hands to do the work.

Q:I enlisted in the navy and choose to Machinery Repairmen (MRs) for my rating. It seems good and I felt confident to do the job because I qualified for it in the first place. I'm just worried because I know nothing about it beforehand. Will I be taught everything I need to know to become a MR? I know that nor every job is easy in the navy but is this particular rating hard? I'm looking forward to becoming a (MR). I really want to have a great career in the Navy and I want to be able to perform my job up to standards.

I've always thought MRs were the expert fixers and fabricators on the ship; really good at making things. It's a rating that requires lots of skill to it to make worse. If you like lathes, you're in luck. They'll teach you everything you need to know in A-school. It's a hard rating because it's an engineering rate, so lots of hard work associated with it. Advancement is easy up to second class, then impossible beyond that.

Q:I don't know which to do. What advances better? Also i would plan on trying to get into OCS before im 34 and be an officer in one of these jobs, which one?

Storekeeper is logistics quartermaster, and there is always room for growth and promotion in logistics, especially for an officer. I would move fast, however, if you're approaching the age cap, because no age waivers are being given. Also, your MOS will depend heavily on your ASVAB.

Q:How is cantilever technology used in heavy machinery?

anytime the load is extended out from beyond the structure, for example: 1 container cranes 2 shiploaders 3 ship unloaders 4 building a bridge over empty space (river, gully, road, railways) from both sides, especially evidenced in fixed stay bridges where the next segment is attached to the previous construction although the shooting bridge takes some of the loads 5 diving board at a pool

Q:mainly in construction.

Computerized machinery can cut labor costs by automating a lot of tasks. This a given worker produce more in the same time and is thus more efficient. It can also cut waste by reducing errors in measurements and assuring maximum use of raw materials.

Q:Where can I post pictures of an antique farm gear box and get replies as to :What is it? It was recently found under an old building. Everything seems to work freely.Ron

can you identify the manufacturer? McCormick, McCormick Farm-all was one of the earliest manufacturers of farm machinery, you may find flecks or red paint. there should be identifying marks, google the manufacturer, who ever it is. It should work freely; if it is as old as i am thinking it was made of cast iron.

Q:Farmers lack style and imagination. All they care about is profit. Why are there none who develope implements that are nice looking and truly distinctive? Don't they feel embarrassed riding such hideous looking contraptions?

Farming isn't about consumerism or style like the corporate world is. It is about making an honest living doing what you can. I am not a farmer but even I know that was one of the more pointless questions. Please don't be offended just try to see my point.

Q:I need solutions to questions at the end of chapters 7,8 and 11 of the Electric Machinery 5th edition by Fitzgerald. Does anyone still have? I know its quite 20 decades ago.

Q:A 20kw,200V shunt generator is operated at rated load. if the driving engine is developing 30bhp (break horse power), determine the iron and friction losses.PLease use all the given data above..thanksAnswer is IFL=1039W.Thanks a lot.

This is the answer I gave 3 other askers of the same question. brake horse power of an engine is the actual amount of horse power an engine can put out. Using 745.5 watts as a horse power, the engine will supply the equivalent of 30 times 745.7 watts at 30 brake horse power. This is 22,371watts. The generator is supplying 20 Kw or 20,000 watts. The difference in the engine output and the generator output is 22,371 minus 20,000 or 2.371 watts. I don't see how the answer is 1039 watts, if my calculations are correct. Perhaps someone else will have the answer you seek. I may be missing something in your question
