Answer:

a. 2.08, b. 1110 kJ/min

Explanation:

The power consumption and the cooling rate of an air conditioner are given. The COP or Coefficient of Performance and the rate of heat rejection are to be determined. <u>Assume that the air conditioner operates steadily.</u>

a. The coefficient of performance of the air conditioner (refrigerator) is determined from its definition, which is

COP(r) = Q(L)/W(net in), where Q(L) is the rate of heat removed and W(net in) is the work done to remove said heat

COP(r) = (750 kJ/min/6 kW) x (1 kW/60kJ/min) = 2.08

The COP of this air conditioner is 2.08.

b. The rate of heat discharged to the outside air is determined from the energy balance.

Q(H) = Q(L) + W(net in)

Q(H) = 750 kJ/min + 6 x 60 kJ/min = 1110 kJ/min

The rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1110 kJ for every minute.

Which system provides an easier way for people to communicate with a computer than a graphical user interface (GUI)?
Fed [463]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Natural language processing or NLP can be defined as an artificial intelligence that aids computers to understand, interpret, and manipulate human language. NLP is subfiled of many disciplines, for instance, artifical intelligence, linguistics, computer science, etc. NLP helps computers to interact with humans in their own language.

So, the easier way through which people can communicate with computers apart from GUI is NLP. Thus option C is correct.

Twenty-five wooden beams were ordered or a construction project. The sample mean and he sample standard deviation were measured
aksik [14]

Answer:

Correct option: B. 90%

Explanation:

The confidence interval is given by:

CI = [\bar{x} - z\sigma_{\bar{x}} , \bar{x}+z\sigma_{\bar{x}} ]

If \bar{x} is 190, we can find the value of z\sigma_{\bar{x}}:

\bar{x} - z\sigma_{\bar{x}}  = 188.29

190 - z\sigma_{\bar{x}}  = 188.29

z\sigma_{\bar{x}}  = 1.71

Now we need to find the value of \sigma_{\bar{x}}:

\sigma_{\bar{x}} = s / \sqrt{n}

\sigma_{\bar{x}} = 5/ \sqrt{25}

\sigma_{\bar{x}} = 1

So the value of z is 1.71.

Looking at the z-table, the z value that gives a z-score of 1.71 is 0.0436

This value will occur in both sides of the normal curve, so the confidence level is:

CI = 1 - 2*0.0436 = 0.9128 = 91.28\%

The nearest CI in the options is 90%, so the correct option is B.

The elevation of the end of the steel beam supported by a concrete floor is adjusted by means of the steel wedges E and F. The b
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a) P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) Q = 5.4 Kips

Explanation:

GIven

W = 18 Kips

μ₁ = 0.30

μ₂ = 0.60

a) P = ?

We get F₁  and F₂ as follows:

F₁ = μ₁*W = 0.30*18 Kips = 5.4 Kips

F₂ = μ₂*Nef = 0.6*Nef

Then, we apply

∑Fy = 0   (+↑)

Nef*Cos 12º -  F₂*Sin 12º = W

⇒   Nef*Cos 12º -  (0.6*Nef)*Sin 12º = 18

⇒   Nef = 21.09 Kips

Wedge moves if

P ≥ F₁ + F₂*Cos 12º + Nef*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 5.4 Kips + 0.6*21.09 Kips*Cos 12º + 21.09 Kips*Sin 12º

⇒  P ≥ 22.164 Kips

b) For the static equilibrium of base plate

Q = F₁ = 5.4 Kips

We can see the pic shown in order to understand the question.
