Answer:

C. Welded contacts on the thermostat

Explanation:

Any fault that keeps the heating element heating when it should not is a fault that will cause the symptom described. The details <em>depend on the design of the brewer</em> (not given).

"A short at the terminals" depends on what terminals are being referenced. The device on-off switch terminals are normally connected together when the brewer is turned on, so a short there may not be observable.

"Welded contacts on the thermostat" will have the observed effect if the thermostat is the primary means of ending the brewing cycle. If the thermostat of interest is an overheat protective device not normally involved in ending the brewing cycle, then that fault may not cause the observed symptom.

If the heating element is open-circuit, no heating will occur. A gasket leak may cause a puddle, but may have nothing to do with the end of the brewing cycle. (Loss of water can be expected to end boiling, rather than prolong it.)

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

critical stress required for the propagation is 27.396615 × $10^{6}$ N/m²

Explanation:

given data

specific surface energy = 0.90 J/m²

modulus of elasticity E = 393 GPa = 393 × $10^{9}$ N/m²

internal crack length = 0.6 mm

to find out

critical stress required for the propagation

solution

we will apply here critical stress formula for propagation of internal crack

( σc ) = $\sqrt{\frac{2E\gamma s}{\pi a}}$ .....................1

here E is modulus of elasticity and γs is specific surface energy and a is half length of crack i.e 0.3 mm = 0.3 × $10^{-3}$ m

so now put value in equation 1 we get

( σc ) = $\sqrt{\frac{2E\gamma s}{\pi a}}$

( σc ) = $\sqrt{\frac{2*393*10^9*0.90}{\pi 0.3*10^{-3}}}$

( σc ) = 27.396615 × $10^{6}$ N/m²

so critical stress required for the propagation is 27.396615 × $10^{6}$ N/m²

Which allows a user to run applications on a computing device? Group of answer choices Application software CSS Operating system

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The operating system

Explanation:

The job of the operating system is to manage system resources allowing the abstraction of the hardware, providing a simple user interface for the user. The operating system is also responsible for handling application's access to system resources.

For this purpose, the operating system allows a user to run applications on their computing device.

Cheers.

Radioactive wastes generating heat at a rate of 3 x 106 W/m3 are contained in a spherical shell of inner radius 0.25 m and outsi

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Inner surface temperature= 783K.

Outer surface temperature= 873K

Explanation:

Parameters:

Heat,e= 3×10^6 W/m^3

Inner radius = 0.25 m

Outside radius= 0.30 m

Temperature at infinity, T(¶)= 10°c = 273. + 10 = 283K.

Convection coefficient,h = 500 W/m^2 . K

Temperature of the surface= T(s) = ?

Temperature of the inner= T(I) =?

STEP 1: Calculate for heat flux at the outer sphere.

q= r × e/3

This equation satisfy energy balance.

q= 1/3 ×3000000(W/m^3) × 0.30 m

= 3× 10^5 W/m^2.

STEP 2: calculus the temperature for the surface.

T(s) = T(¶) + q/h

T(s) = 283 + 300000( W/m^2)/500(W/m^2.K)

T(s) = 283+600

T(s)= 873K.

TEMPERATURE FOR THE OUTER SURFACE is 873 kelvin.

The same TWO STEPS are use for the calculation of inner temperature, T(I).

STEP 1: calculate for the heat flux.

q= r × e/3

q= 1/3 × 3000000(W/m^3) × 0.25 m

q= 250,000 W/m^2

STEP 2:

calculate the inner temperature

T(I) = T(¶) + q/h

T(I) = 283K + 250,000(W/m^2)/500(W/m^2)

T(I) = 283K + 500

T(I) = 783K

INNER TEMPERATURE IS 783 KELVIN

Consider a N-channel enhancement MOSFET with VGS = 3V, Vt = 1 V, VDS = 10 V, and lambda =0 (channel length modulation parameter)

AveGali [126]

The current IDS is greater than 0 since the VGS has induced an inversion layer and the transistor is operating in the saturation region.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Since $V_{ds}$ > $V_{gs} - Vt$ because $V_{gs}$ > Vt.
By the saturation region the MOSFET is operating.
A specific source voltage and gate of NMOS, the voltage get drained during the specific level, the drain voltage is rises beyond where there is no effect of current during saturated region.
MOSFET is a transistor which is a device of semiconductor vastly used for the electronic amplifying signals and switching in the devices of electronics.
The core of this is integrated circuit.
It is fabricated and designed in an individual chips due to tiny sizes.
