Define professionalism.
The definition of professionalism.
Explanation of Solution
The act of pursuing the behavior of punctuality, integrity, honesty, doing the job correctly and accurately without any error, being honest with the public and clients is called professionalism.
A professional person is always punctual in his daily routines, he gets the job done on time. A professional person keeps the balance between professional work life and normal life, he does not mix them up.
Professionalism creates the fire of being expert in any field in which one is working. It creates a competence behavior in the person who is trying to pursue it.
A professional person does not repeat the same mistake twice because he thinks repeating a mistake twice is not a mistake but a habit and professionalism does not allow the person to indulge with that behavior that he thinks as bad.
There are many traits of professionalism which are as follow:
- 1. Competence
- 2. Aesthetics and appearance
- 3. Specialization in work
- 4. Specialization in ethics
- 5. Balance between work life and personal life.

- The system shown below is in statics equilibrium. Cable OB lies in the xy plane and makes a 30° angle with the positive x-axis. Cable OA lies along the negative y-axis. If the weight of the load being supported is 100 lb, determine the magnitude of the forces in all four cables: OA, OB, OC, and OD.arrow_forwardThis is a mechanics/statics problem involving finding internal reactions, V(x) and M(x). Please refer to image for details. I'm not sure about where to take cuts and how to formulate the equations as a function of x. For my support Reactions I got Ay = 1008.33 lb, By = 1416.67 lb and Cy = 175 lb. and for the first cut V(x) = 1008.33 -250(x) and M(x) = 1008.33x - 125x^2. I'm struggling with the equations for the 2nd and 3rd cut.arrow_forwardAs shown in the figure below, a ring is used to suspend a load and is supported by Cable OA and Spring OB. Given that the tension in Cable OA is 400 N, what is the weight of the load being supported? Assume the system is in static equilibrium.arrow_forward
- 4. (a) State the conditions that must be met to ensure dynamic balance is achieved for long rotors. (b) A rotor carries three out-of-balance discs in planes A, B and C as shown in Figure 4. The out-of- balance mass x radius products of the rotor discs are tabulated in Table 4. The shaft is to be dynamically balanced by adding balancing masses in planes P and Q, spaced along the shaft at a distance da = 800 mm. Determine the magnitude mara and angular position of the balancing mass x radius product that must be added to plane Q.

- please solve and show workarrow_forwardWater is boiling in a 25 cm diameter aluminum pan (k=237 W/mK) at 95 degrees C. Heat is transferred steadily to the boiling water in the pan through its .5 cm thick flat bottom at a rate of 800 W. if the inner surface temp of the bottom of the pan is 108 degrees C determine the boiling heat transfer coefficent on the inner surface of the pan and the outer surface temp of the bottom of the pan.arrow_forwardplease solve and show workarrow_forward

The molar concentrations of hydrogen in the membrane at the innner and outer surfaces are determined to be 0.045 and 0.002 kmol/m^3 respectiveley. The binary diffusion coefficent of hydrogen in plastic at the operation temp is 5.3*10^-10 m^2/s. Determine the mass flow rate of hydrogen by diffusion through the membrane under steady conditions if the thickeness of the membrane is 2mm and 0.5 mm.arrow_forwardCalculate the vertical cross section moment of inertia for Orientations 1 and 2. State which number is the higher moment of inertia using equation 1. Given: b1=1 in, h1=1.5 in, b2=1.5 in, h2=1 in, t=0.0625 in.
