Answer:
A block and tackle is characterized by the use of a single continuous rope to transmit a tension force around one or more pulleys to lift or move a load. Its mechanical advantage is the number of parts of the rope that act on the load. The mechanical advantage of a tackle dictates how much easier it is to haul or lift the load.

Hope this helps- have a good day ^w
Answer:
The solution and complete explanation for the above question and mentioned conditions is given below in the attached document.i hope my explanation will help you in understanding this particular question.
Explanation:
Answer:
- #include <iostream>
- using namespace std;
- void printLarger(int a, int b){
-
- if(a > b){
- cout<<a;
- }else{
- cout<<b;
- }
- }
- int main()
- {
- printLarger(4, 5);
- return 0;
- }
Explanation:
The solution code is written in C++.
Firstly define a function printLarger that has two parameters, a and b with both of them are integer type (Line 5). In the function, create an if condition to check if a bigger than b, print a to terminal (Line 7-8). Otherwise print b (Line 9-10).
In the main program, test the function by passing 4 and 5 as arguments (Line 16) and we shall get 5 printed.
Answer:
maximum allowable electrical power=4.51W/m
critical radius of the insulation=13mm
Explanation:
Hello!
To solve this heat transfer problem we must initially draw the wire and interpret the whole problem (see attached image)
Subsequently, consider the heat transfer equation from the internal part of the tube to the external air, taking into account the resistance by convection, and conduction as shown in the attached image
to find the critical insulation radius we must divide the conductivity of the material by the external convective coefficient

Concentrating solar power (CSP) plants use mirrors to concentrate the sun's energy to drive traditional steam turbines or engines that create electricity. The thermal energy concentrated in a CSP plant can be stored and used to produce electricity when it is needed, day or night. Today, roughly 1,815 megawatts (MWac) of CSP plants are in operation in the United States.
Parabolic Trough
Parabolic trough systems use curved mirrors to focus the sun’s energy onto a receiver tube that runs down the center of a trough. In the receiver tube, a high-temperature heat transfer fluid (such as a synthetic oil) absorbs the sun’s energy, reaching temperatures of 750°F or higher, and passes through a heat exchanger to heat water and produce steam. The steam drives a conventional steam turbine power system to generate electricity. A typical solar collector field contains hundreds of parallel rows of troughs connected as a series of loops, which are placed on a north-south axis so the troughs can track the sun from east to west. Individual collector modules are typically 15-20 feet tall and 300-450 feet long.
Compact Linear Fresnel Reflector
CLFR uses the principles of curved-mirror trough systems, but with long parallel rows of lower-cost flat mirrors. These modular reflectors focus the sun's energy onto elevated receivers, which consist of a system of tubes through which water flows. The concentrated sunlight boils the water, generating high-pressure steam for direct use in power generation and industrial steam applications.
