What is technical communication, and what are some of the ways it can help people?

 

  1. What is technical communication, and what are some of the ways it can help people?
  2. What are some common types of technical documents? List at least five types the book mentions. Please also make up two specific examples of the kinds of technical communication that people may need to produce in the workplace (use specific professions in your examples, like engineer, computer programmer, nurse, dentist, etc).
  3. Describe some things that a writer can do to "focus on the reader" when writing and designing technical documents.
  4. Why is technical communication so often collaborative in nature?

1. Two large fixed parallel planes are 12mm apart. The space between the surfaces is
filled with oil viscosity 0.972 N.s/m2

. A flat thin plate 0.25m2

area moves through the

oil at a velocity of 0.3 m/s. Calculate the drag force:
i. When the plate is equidistant from both the planes, and
ii. When the thin plate is at a distance of 4 mm from one of the plane surfaces.

A cantilever, 2.6 m long, carryinga uniformly distributed load w along the entire length, is propped at its free end to the level of the fixed end. If the load on the prop is then 30 kN, calculate the value of w. Determine also the slope of the beam at the support. If any formula for deflection is used it must first be proved. E = 210GN/m2; I = 4 x 10-6m4.

Question 4) If the effective pressure of the water in the pipe is 3 atm and in the case of h1 = 1m, h2 = 0.5m, h3 = 1m, h4 = 2m and h5 = 0.1m, determine the relative density of the fluid. (Accept that ρoil = 850 kg / m3, ρwater = 1000 kg / m3, ρhg = 13600 kg / m3, g = 9.81 m / s2. Neglect the pressure from the air at the height of h2.)

08-5 Calculate and compare the hydraulic and TSS loadings (lb/d) from wastewater and stormwater for a 10-acre urban neighborhood. Assume the following:

*Wastewater: 5 houses/acre; 3.5 people/house; 50 gal/person/day; TSS = 200 mg/L

*Stormwater: 0.75 inch rainfall over 24 hours, 50% of rainfall runs off; TSS = 60 mg/L

Answer: WW load = 875 gpd, 14.6 lb/d; SW load = 101,820 gal/d, 51.0 lb/d
