Answer: yes

Explanation: ontop of a tall building, you drop a small peace of metal covered in zinc. it is possible to be very dangerus because of gravity. some one walking on the side walk who gets hit in the head can get a concusion maybe even a brain injury.

Explain all the characteristics of computer<br>​
Sedaia [141]
They are as follows-

Speed
Accuracy
Storage
Versatility
Diligence
Automation
Reliability
Power of Remembering

Let us understand each characteristic in brief:-

Speed – Speed of a computer means the time it takes to complete any given task. The computer works at a very lightning speed. For example, a computer takes a second to calculate 3 million calculations rather than a human which takes years. Hence nowadays the speed of the computer is measured in terms of microseconds, Nanoseconds, and even in Pico seconds instead of seconds or milliseconds.


Accuracy – The computers are programmed and designed in such a manner that their results are almost 100% accurate. It performs all the tasks with the same accuracy. There are very few chances of uncertainty in results and even though an error occurs, it can happen either due to wrong input data or unreliable programs by a programmer. Such errors are referred to as Garbage In Garbage Out (GIGO) which means, if you provide wrong instructions to the computer then you get wrong results.


Versatility – Along with being accurate and diligent a computer is also a versatile device. It can perform several types of tasks at a time if they are reduced to a certain set of logical steps. A computer can be used for many purposes at different places such as booking air and rail tickets, weather forecasting, listening to music, and playing games. Also at a time, one can pay his utility bills and can make a monthly budget too. It can prepare documents, data sheets and also can make models of houses, dams, etc.
Diligence – The ability of a computer to perform tasks without getting tired is known as diligence. Computers are highly reliable, they do not get fed up, exhausted, or lack concentration. They can work for hours and hours unlike humans and can give accurate or error-free results. For example, humans will start feeling tired after 2 -3 hours and will lack concentration whereas a computer will keep on working until the results are achieved.
Automation – Automation means working automatically. A computer can work on its own without the intervention of the person using it. Programs can be made for the computer to perform the task and based on the sequence it executes the tasks and gives accurate results. In case an error occurs, it gives error messages too and registers the logs.
Reliability – High reliability of a computer depends on low failure rate and easy maintenance. The results given out by the computer are reliable as the accuracy is almost 100%.
Power of Remembering – The computer has the power of storing data or information for several years. It cannot lose the data on its own. A person can retrieve the data whenever required and the data remains the same after a number of years also. It gives the freedom to the user to decide on how much data to store and how much to remove.

A lake is fed by a polluted stream and a sewage outfall. The stream and sewage wastes have a decay rate coefficient (k) of 0.5/d
joja [24]

Solution :

Given :

k = 0.5 per day

$C_s = 10 \ mg/L \ ; \ \ Q_s= 40 \ m^3/s$

$C_{sw} = 100 \ ppm \ ; \ \ Q_{sw}= 0.5 \ m^3/s$

Volume, V $= 200 \ m^3$

Now, input rate = output rate + KCV ------------- (1)

Input rate  $= Q_s C_s + Q_{sw}C_{sw}$

                $=(40 \times 10) + (0.5\times 100)$

                $= 2 \times 10^5 \ mg/s$

The output rate $= Q_m C_{m}$

                          = ( 40 + 0.5 ) x C x 1000

                          $=40.5 \times 10^3 \ C \ mg/s$

Decay rate = KCV

∴$KCV =\frac{0.5/d \times C \  \times 200 \times 1000}{24 \times 3600}$

            = 1.16 C mg/s

Substituting all values in (1)

$2 \times 10^5 = 40.5 \times 10^3 \ C+ 1.16 C$

C = 4.93 mg/L

Explain working of Laser Doppler Vibrometer with diagram.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

A laser-Doppler vibrometer  identifies the Doppler effect or shift of laser light reflected from the sample object

Explanation:

A laser-Doppler vibrometer (e.g. Micro Motion Analyzer 400 from Polytec) identifies the Doppler effect or shift of laser light reflected from the sample object .At a beam splitter, a laser beam is partitioned into a measuring beam  and a reference beam that deflects 90 ° upwards and transmit to the reference mirror "RM." Both beams come back to the beam splitter.

Find the magnitude of the steady-state response of the system whose system model is given by dx(t)/dt+ x(t)-f(t), where f(t) 2co
NISA [10]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Find the magnitude of the steady-state response of the system whose system model is given by

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)

where f(t) = 2cos8t.  Keep 3 significant figures

Answer: The steady state output x(t) = 0.2481 cos( 8t - 45° )

Explanation:

Given that;

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)  where f(t) = 2cos8t

dx(t)/dt + x(t) = f(t)

we apply Laplace transformation on both sides

SX(s) + x(s) = f(s)

(S + 1)x(s) = f(s)

f(s) / x(s) = S + 1

x(s) / f(s) = 1 / (S + 1)

Therefore

transfer function = H(s) = x(s)/f(s) = 1/(S+1)

f(t) = 2cos8t →   [ 1 / ( S + 1 ) ]   →  x(t) = Acos(8t - ∅ )

A = Magnitude of steady state output

S = jw

S = j8

so

A = 2 × 1 / √( 8² + 1 ) = 2 / √ (64 + 1 )

A = 2/√65 = 0.2481

∅ = tan⁻¹( 1/1) = 45°

therefore The steady state output x(t) = 0.2481 cos( 8t - 45° )
