Answer:0.853

Explanation:

Given

Reliability of A is 0.90

Reliability of B is 0.80

Reliability of C is 0.99

B has a backup with reliability of 0.8

i.e. B has a component in parallel to it.

A,B& C is series.

B actual reliability is

R_b=1-\left ( 1-0.8\right )\left ( 1-0.8\right )

R_b=0.96

Thus R_{net} is given by

R_{net}=R_A\times R_B\times R_C

R_{net}=0.9\times 0.96\times 0.99

R_{net}=0.8553

exis [7]
The question for this problem would be the minimum headphone delay, in ms, that will cancel this noise.
The 200 Hz. period = (1/200) = 0.005 sec. It will need to be delayed by 1/2, so 0.005/2, that is = 0.0025 sec. So converting sec to ms, will give us the delay of:Delay = 2.5 ms.

15.One girl was involved in a bus crash. She told the police that she was seated in the last line of seats and that when the bus
Alona [7]

Answer: It is not likely.

Explanation:

When the bus is moving forward, all the objects inside of it also are moving forward.

Now, as the objects inside the buss are not fixed to the bus, if the bus suddenly stops the objects inside of it will keep moving forward, because of the conservation of the momentum, defined as the quantity of motion (Similar to when you are in a car and it suddenly stops, you can feel the forward impulse).

Then is not likely that, in a case where the bus stops suddenly, an object inside the bus flies backward in opposite direction to the previous movement of the bus.

Atoms that are bonded together to form a new material with new<br> properties and characteristics. .
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.

The engine of a 2000 kg Mercedes going up Pike’s Peak delivers energy to its drive wheel at the rate 100 kW . Neglecting air res
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of Mercedes engine = 2000 Kg

Power delivered = 100 kW

angle made with horizontal = 30°

acceleration due to gravity =  10 m/s²

largest speed car can sustain = ?

we know,

Power = Force x velocity

P = F x v

P = mg sinθ x v

P = mg sin 30° x v

P = 0.5 mg  x v

v = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3}{0.5\times 2000 \times 10}

v = 10 m/s

hence, the maximum velocity is equal to v = 10 m/s
