Can a roof have a 8 by 12 pitch roof?
Yes, it can have any pitch, the pitch is the ratio of the number of units (usually inches) run (horizontal) to the number of units rise (vertical). The units of run is always 12 therefor if you measure over 12 inches then measure up at 90° that number represents the pitch. If you measure over 12 inches and measure up 8 you have an 8/12 pitch roof.
What unit would you use to measure width of a football pitch?
Yards if you work in imperial units or metres if you work in metric units
What are the units of measure for sound?
Sound is measured in dB ( Decibels) for intensity and or Hz ( Hertz) for frequency or pitch.
Is the pitch high or low if the frequency is low?
Pitch and frequency are simply different terms for the same thing and are directly proportional. The difference is that pitch is the subjective human perception while frequency is an objectively measured quantity in units of Hz.
What is the scientific name of volume?
Volume is a scalar quantity and in the International System of Units (SI), its unit is cubic meters (m^3).
Is it true that the loudness of different sounds compare in units called hertz?
No.. hertz relates to the frequency (pitch). The volume of a sound is measured in decibels.
Is it true that the loudness of different sounds is compared in units called hertz?
No.. hertz relates to the frequency (pitch). The volume of a sound is measured in decibels.
What is the correct Pitch per foot for in house 3inch diameter sewer pipe?
There is NO correct pitch... MINIMUM would normally be 1/8 per ft BUT then of course you cannot have as many drainage fixture units connected to this line.The total FU's allowed are based on pitch and diameter of the piping
Why is a cricket pitch the length that it is?
A cricket pitch is the central strip of the cricket field between the wickets. The pitch is 1 chain or 22 yards (20.12 m) long and 10 feet (3 m) wide. The surface is very flat and normally covered with extremely short grass though this grass is soon removed by wear at the ends of the pitch. The chain was commonly used with the mile to indicate land distances and in particular in surveying land for legal and commercial purposes. In medieval times, local measures were commonly used, and many units were adopted that gave manageable units; for example the distance from London to York could be quoted in inches, but the resulting huge number would be unmemorable. The locally used units were often inconsistent from place to place The pitch has very specific markings delineating the creases, as specified by the Laws of Cricket
Why use different units of measurement?
if you used Milimetres to measure a Football pitch it would take Years so you would you something more sensible and higher (Kilometres)
What is the size of sewer drains?
Size of any drain is calculated by fixture units (7.48 gallons) and pitch of pipe with many codes giving a bare min sizes
Relate pitch and frequency?
Well, the two things -pitch and -frequency are the same dimensionally [1/Time] , units 1/s=Hz but one will the the usage of word 'pitch' more often when one deals with 'sound' waves and for all other kind of waves 'frequency' is used in general. pitch for sound waves ('longitudinal' waves) corresponds very nearly to the repetition rate of sound waves.
