Question Continuation

int factorial(int n) {

if(n == 0)

return 1;

else

return n * factorial(n - 1);

}

Provide a brief explanation why this recursive function works.

Show all steps involved in calculating factorial(3) using the function defined.

Answer:

1. Brief explanation why this recursive function works.

First, the recursive method factorial is defined.

This is the means through with the machine identifies the method.

The method is defined as integer, the machine will regard it as integer.

When the factorial is called from anywhere that has access to it, which in this case is within the factorial class itself. This means you can call it from the main method, or you can call it from the factorial method itself. It's just a function call that, well, happens to call itself.

2. Steps to calculate factorial(3)

1 First, 3 is assigned to n.

2. At line 2, the machine checks if n equals 0

3. If yes, the machine prints 1

4. Else; it does the following from bottom to top

factorial(3):

return 3*factorial(2);

return 2*factorial(1):

return 1;

Which gives 3 * 2 * 1 = 6

5. Then it prints 6, which is the result of 3!

A liquid's viscosity increases with increasing temperature. a)-True b)-False
olasank [31]

Answer:

b) False

Explanation:

Viscosity:

   Viscosity is a fluid property and comes in the picture when fluid in the motion.In Simple words viscosity is the frictional force offered by fluid between the fluid layer.Viscosity provides a resistant to flow of fluid.

Generally viscosity are of two types

1.Dynamics viscosity

2.Kinematics viscosity

Generally in liquids when temperature of fluid is increases then molecular force between fluid particle goes to decreases.Due to this viscosity of liquids will decrease.

So our option b is right.

What are the factors of production in business? Land, labor, and capital land, capital, and interest land, labor, and customer b
kozerog [31]

Answer:

  • <em><u> Land, labor, and capital </u></em>

Explanation:

The <em>factors of production </em>are the resources that are used to produce goods and services.

By definition resources are scarce.

<em>Land</em> includes everything that comes from the land, that can be used as raw material to produce other materials; for instance, water, minerals, wood.

<em>Labor</em>  is the work done by anybody, not just at a factory but at any enterpise that produce a good or a service. For instance, the work done by a person in a bank or a restaurant.

<em>Capital</em> is the facilites (buildings), machinery, equipments, tools that the persons use to produce goods or services. For instance, a computer, a chemical reactor, or a pencil.

Nowadays, also entrepreneurship is included as a <em>factor of production</em>, since it is the innovative skill of the entrepeneurs to combine land, labor and capital what permit the production of good and services.

What was the role of the rotors in the enigma machine?.
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Implements a reordering of the letters of the alphabet.

Explanation: GIVE ME 5 STARS AND a HEART!!!                                      Those contacts are wired across the rotor so that each contact on the left connects to the contact on the right in some scrambled arrangement. Each rotor, therefore, implements a reordering of the letters of the alphabet, which mathematicians call a permutation.

A 10.2 mm diameter steel circular rod is subjected to a tensile load that reduces its cross- sectional area to 52.7 mm^2. Determ
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The percentage ductility is 35.5%.

Explanation:

Ductility is the ability of being deform under applied load. Ductility can measure by percentage elongation and percentage reduction in area. Here, percentage reduction in area method is taken to measure the ductility.

Step1

Given:

Diameter of shaft is 10.2 mm.

Final area of the shaft is 52.7 mm².

Calculation:

Step2

Initial area is calculated as follows:

A=\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}

A=\frac{\pi\times(10.2)^{2}}{4}

A = 81.713 mm².

Step3

Percentage ductility is calculated as follows:

D=\frac{A_{i}-A_{f}}{A_{i}}\times100

D=\frac{81.713-52.7}{81.713}\times100

D = 35.5%.

Thus, the percentage ductility is 35.5%.
