You are asked to study the causal effect of hours spent on employee training (measured in hours per worker per week) in a manu

facturing plant on the productivity of its workers (output per worker per hour). Write in the box the option letter (a, b, c or d) on the right that best describes the statement on the left. Choose a random group of employees to receive ten hours per week in additional training for a period of four weeks. Then, estimate the difference in productivity between workers who received the additional training and those that did not

Explain with schematics the operating principle of solid state lasers.

alina1380 [7]

Explanation:

A solid state laser contains a cavity like structure fitted with spherical mirrors or plane mirrors at the end filled with a rigidly bonded crystal. It uses solid as the medium. It uses glass or crystalline materials.

It is known that active medium used for this type of laser is a solid material. This lasers are pumped optically by means of a light source which is used as a source of energy for the laser. The solid materials gets excited by absorbing energy in the form of light from the light source. Here the pumping source is light energy.

It is appropriate to use the following yield or failure criterion for ductile materials (a) Maximum shear stress or Tresca crite

Nataly [62]

Answer:

(b)Distortion energy theory.

Explanation:

The best suitable theory for ductile material:

(1)Maximum shear stress theory (Guest and Tresca theory)

It theory state that applied maximum shear stress should be less or equal to its maximum shear strength.

(2)Maximum distortion energy theory(Von Mises henkey's theory)

It states that maximum shear train energy per unit volume at any point is equal to strain energy per unit volume under the state of uni axial stress condition.

But from these two Best theories ,suitable theory is distortion energy theory ,because it gives best suitable result for ductile material.

Explain the process of energy conversion by describing how energy was converted from the windmill design brief. Discuss the diff

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Wind energy is converted to Mechanical energy which is then converted in to electrical energy

Explanation:

In a wind mill the following energy conversions take place

a) Wind energy is converted into Mechanical energy (rotation of rotor blades)

b) Mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy (by using electric motor)

This electrical energy is then used for transmission through electric lines.

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation (Equation 10.17), the parameter n is known to have a value

OleMash [197]

Answer:

t = 25.10 sec

Explanation:

we know that Avrami equation

$Y = 1 - e^{-kt^n}$

here Y is percentage of completion of reaction = 50%

t is duration of reaction = 146 sec

so,

$0.50 = 1 - e^{-k^146^2.1}$

$0.50 = e^{-k306.6}$

taking natural log on both side

ln(0.5) = -k(306.6)

$k = 2.26\times 10^{-3}$

for 86 % completion

$0.86 = 1 - e^{-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1}}$

$e^{-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1}} = 0.14$

$-2.26\times 10^{-3} \times t^{2.1} = ln(0.14)$

$t^{2.1} = 869.96$

t = 25.10 sec

Instead of running blood through a single straight vessel for a distance of 2 mm, one mammalian species uses an array of 100 tin

Marina CMI [18]

Solution:

Given that :

Volume flow is, $Q_1 = 1000 \ mm^3/s$

So, $Q_2= \frac{1000}{100}=10 \ mm^3/s$

Therefore, the equation of a single straight vessel is given by

$F_{f_1}=\frac{8flQ_1^2}{\pi^2gd_1^5}$ ......................(i)

So there are 100 similar parallel pipes of the same cross section. Therefore, the equation for the area is

$\frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}=1000 \times\frac{\pi d_2^2}{4}$

or $d_1=10 \ d_2$

Now for parallel pipes

$H_{f_2}= (H_{f_2})_1= (H_{f_2})_2= .... = = (H_{f_2})_{10}=\frac{8flQ_2^2}{\pi^2 gd_2^5}$ ...........(ii)

Solving the equations (i) and (ii),

$\frac{H_{f_1}}{H_{f_2}}=\frac{\frac{8flQ_1^2}{\pi^2 gd_1^5}}{\frac{8flQ_2^2}{\pi^2 gd_2^5}}$

$=\frac{Q_1^2}{Q_2^2}\times \frac{d_2^5}{d_1^5}$

$=\frac{(1000)^2}{(10)^2}\times \frac{d_2^5}{(10d_2)^5}$

$=\frac{10^6}{10^7}$

Therefore,

$\frac{H_{f_1}}{H_{f_2}}=\frac{1}{10}$

or $H_{f_2}=10 \ H_{f_1}$

Thus the answer is option A). 10
