Answer:

<em>55%</em>

Explanation:

hot reservoir = 1100 K

cold reservoir = 500 K

<em>This is a Carnot system</em>

For a Carnot system, maximum efficicency of the system is given as

Eff = 1 - \frac{Tc}{Th}

where Tc = temperature of cold reservoir = 500K

Th = temperature of hot reservoir = 1100 K

Eff = 1 - \frac{500}{1100}

Eff = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55 or<em> 55%</em>

Three communications channels in parallel have independent failure modes of 0.1 failure per hour. These components must share a
ozzi

Answer:

the MTTF of the transceiver is 50.17

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

failure modes = 0.1 failure per hour

system reliability = 0.85

mission time =  5 hours

Now, we know that the reliability equation for this situation is;

R(t) = [ 1 - ( 1 - e^{-0.1t )³] e^{-t/MTTF

so we substitute

R(5) = [ 1 - ( 1 - e^{-0.1(5) )³] e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85

[ 1 - ( 1 - e^{-0.5 )³] e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85

[ 1 - ( 0.393469 )³] e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85

[ 1 - 0.06091 ] e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85

0.9391 e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85  

e^{-5/MTTF = 0.85 / 0.9391

e^{-5/MTTF = 0.90512

MTTF = 5 / -ln( 0.90512 )

MTTF = 50.17

Therefore, the MTTF of the transceiver is 50.17
