Two technicians are discussing the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. Technician A says that the computer uses the IAT sensor

as a backup to the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. Technician B says that the powertrain control module (PCM) will subtract the calculated amount of fuel if the air measures hot. Who is correct

Both the technicians are correct.

Explanation

Intake air temperature sensor is used in engines of vehicles to monitor the temperature of air entering the engine.

They are basically made of thermistors whose electrical resistance changes according to temperature.

Depending upon the reading and accuracy of intake air temperature sensor, the power-train control module (PCM) will decide about the air and fuel mixture ratio in the engine.

The hot air in engine requires less fuel to operate the engine parts while cold air requires more fuel to operate the engine.

The ratio of air and fuel mixture should be maintained in the engine and it is done by PCM only after getting the input from IAT. So technician B is saying correct.

Also the IAT works as a backup to support the engine coolant temperature sensor by the computer.

As the IAT checks the temperature of outside air, it will help to change the coolant temperature of the engine based on the environment.

Thus technician A is also correct. So both the technicians are correct.

[4 points] Does the green LED emit light when you connect the banana plug wires across it? What does that say about the threshol
castortr0y [4]

Yes, the green LED emits light when we connect the banana plug wires across it.

This indicates that the threshold voltage is lower for the green LED light than the blue.

<u>Explanation</u>:

A banana plug is named for its resemblance to the shape of a banana. They are wider in the middle of the plug, and narrower at the top and bottom. The banana plug can be easily plugged or unplugged into the ports of speaker or receiver.

LED lights emit photons when it is applied with electrical charge. LED lights are more efficient and last longer than incandescent light bulbs. Green light is commonly provides the calming effect. It is generally used in hyper-pigmentation treatment.

A rectangular block of material with shear modulus G= 620 MPa is fixed to rigid plates at its top and bottom surfaces. Thelower
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

γ_{xy} =0.01, P=248 kN

Explanation:

Given Data:

displacement = 2mm ;

height = 200mm ;

l = 400mm ;

w = 100 ;

G = 620 MPa = 620 N//mm²;    1MPa = 1N//mm²

a. Average Shear Strain:

The average shear strain can be determined by dividing the total displacement of plate by height

γ_{xy} = displacement / total height

     = 2/200 = 0.01

b. Force P on upper plate:

Now, as we know that force per unit area equals to stress

τ = P/A

Also,  τ = Gγ_{xy}

By comapring both equations, we get

P/A = Gγ_{xy}   ------------ eq(1)

First we need to calculate total area,

A = l*w = 400 * 100= 4*10^4mm²

By putting the values in equation 1, we get

P/40000 = 620 * 0.01

P = 248000 N or 2.48 *10^5 N or 248 kN

Which measuring tool will be used to determine the diameter of a crankshaft journal?
guapka [62]

Answer:

The dial bore gauge measures the inside of round holes, such as the bearing journals. This one tool can measure 2″ up to 6″ diameter holes. Both tools are needed in order to check the interior and exterior dimensions of the crankshaft, rods and engine block journals, as well as the thickness of the bearings themselves.

Hope it's helpful to you
