An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown

liquid is 1.5 m and the depth of the oil (specific weight = 8.5 kN/m3) floating on top is 5.0 m. A pressure gage connected to the bottom of the tank reads 65 kPa. What is the specific gravity of the unknown liquid?

Answer:

The specific weight of unknown liquid is found to be 15 KN/m³

Explanation:

The total pressure in tank is measured to be 65 KPa in the tank. But, the total pressure will be equal to the sum of pressures due to both oil and unknown liquid.

Total Pressure = Pressure of oil + Pressure of unknown liquid

65 KPa = (Specific Weight of oil)(depth of oil) + (Specific Weight of unknown liquid)(depth of unknown liquid)

65 KN/m² = (8.5 KN/m³)(5 m) + (Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m)

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m) = 65 KN/m² - 42.5 KN/m²

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid) = (22.5 KN/m²)/1.5 m

<u>Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid = 15 KN/m³</u>

What are supercapacitors ?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

A supercapacitor, also called an ultracapacitor, is a high-capacity capacitor with a capacitance value much higher than other capacitors, but with lower voltage limits, that bridges the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries.

A _____ satellite system employs many satellites that are spaced so that, from any point on the Earth at any time, at least one
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

d. low earth orbit (LEO)

Explanation:

This type of satellites form a constellation deployed as a series of “necklaces” in such a way that at any time, at least one satellite is visible by a receiver antenna, compensating the movement due to the earth rotation.

Opposite to that, a geostationary satellite is at an altitude that makes it  like a fixed point over the Earth´s equator, rotating synchronously with the Earth, so it is always visible in a given area.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Out of the four options provided

option A. actuator

is correct

Explanation:

An actuator is the only device out of the four mentioned devices that provides power and ensures the motion in it in order to manipulate the movement of the moving parts of the damper or a valve used whereas others like ratio regulator are used to regulate air or gas ratio and none mof the 3 remaining options serves the purpose

Write a iterative function that finds the n-th integer of the Fibonacci sequence. Then build a minimal program (main function) t
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Codes for each of the problems are explained below

Explanation:

PROBLEM 1 IN C++:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

//fib function that calculate nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

void fib(int n){

  // l and r inital fibonacci values for n=1 and n=2;

  int l=1,r=1,c;

 

  //if n==1 or n==2 then print 1.

  if(n==1 || n==2){

      cout << 1;

      return;

  }

  //for loop runs n-2 times and calculates nth integer of fibonacci sequence.

  for(int i=0;i<n-2;i++){

      c=l+r;

      l=r;

      r=c;

      cout << "(" << i << "," << c << ") ";

  }

  //prints nth integer of the fibonacci sequence stored in c.

  cout << "\n" << c;

}

int main(){

  int n; //declared variable n

  cin >> n; //inputs n to find nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

  fib(n);//calls function fib to calculate and print fibonacci number.

}

PROBLEM 2 IN PYTHON:

def fib(n):

   print("fib({})".format(n), end=' ')

   if n <= 1:

       return n

   else:

       return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)

if __name__ == '__main__':

   n = int(input())

   result = fib(n)

   print()

   print(result)
