Answer: LED have the lowest cost of operation.

Explanation:

If we ignore the initial procurement cost of the items the operational cost of any device consuming electricity is given by

$Cost=Energy\times cost/unit$

Among the three item's LED consumes the lowest power to give the same level of brightness as compared to the other 2 item's thus LED's shall have the lowest operational cost.

Answer:

a) The required additional minterms for f so that f has eight primary implicants with two literals and no other prime implicant are $m_{2},m_{3},m_{7},m_{8},m_{11},m_{12},m_{13},m_{14}$ and $m_{15}$

b) The essential prime implicant are $c' d',a'b',ab$ and $cd$

c) The minimum sum-of-product expression for f are

$a'b' +ab +c'd'+cd+a'c',\\ a'b'+ab+c'd'+cd+a'd,\\a'b'+ab+c'd'+cd+bc' and \\ a'b'+ab+c'd' +cd+bd$

An 800-kg drag racer accelerates from rest to 390 km/hr in 5.8 s. What is the net impulse applied to the racer in the first 5.8

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Impulse =14937.9 N

tangential force =14937.9 N

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of car m= 800 kg

initial velocity u=0

Final velocity v=390 km/hr

Final velocity v=108.3 m/s

So change in linear momentum P= m x v

P= 800 x 108.3

P=86640 kg.m/s

We know that impulse force F= P/t

So F= 86640/5.8 N

F=14937.9 N

Impulse force F= 14937.9 N

We know that

v=u + at

108.3 = 0 + a x 5.8

$a=18.66\ m/s^2$

So tangential force F= m x a

F=18.66 x 800

F=14937.9 N

A cylinder with a 6.0 in. diameter and 12.0 in. length is put under a compres-sive load of 150 kips. The modulus of elasticity f

jeka94

Answer:

Final Length = 11.992 in

Final Diameter = 6.001 in

Explanation:

First we calculate the cross-sectional area:

Area = A = πr² = π(3 in)² = 28.3 in²

Now, we calculate the stress:

Stress = Compressive Load/Area

Stress = - 150 kips/28.3 in²

Stress = -5.3 ksi

Now,

Modulus of Elasticity = Stress/Longitudinal Strain

8000 ksi = -5.3 ksi/Longitudinal Strain

Longitudinal Strain = -6.63 x 10⁻⁴

but,

Longitudinal Strain = (Final Length - Initial Length)/Initial Length

-6.63 x 10⁻⁴ = (Final Length - 12 in)/12 in

Final Length = (-6.63 x 10⁻⁴)(12 in) + 12 in

<u>Final Length = 11.992 in</u>

we know that:

Poisson's Ratio = - Lateral Strain/Longitudinal Strain

0.35 = - Lateral Strain/(- 6.63 x 10⁻⁴)

Lateral Strain = (0.35)(6.63 x 10⁻⁴)

Lateral Strain = 2.32 x 10⁻⁴

but,

Lateral Strain = (Final Diameter - Initial Diameter)/Initial Diameter

2.32 x 10⁻⁴ = (Final Diameter - 6 in)/6 in

Final Diameter = (2.32 x 10⁻⁴)(6 in) + 6 in

<u>Final Diameter = 6.001 in</u>
