A concrete pump of 120-cy/hr max. output is used to place 250 cy of concrete. It is supplied by 8 cy transit-mix trucks arriving

to the site every 15 mins. Barring interruptions how many hours will the operation require, considering 80% efficiency factor.

8 0

Answer:

Completing the operation will require 9.765625 hours.

Explanation:

First, let's check which of the stages will be the process limitation:

Regarding the pump, it can perform up to 120 cy/h. The trucks will deliver 8 cy every 15 min, i.e., 32 cy/h, then this is the smaller capacity within the whole process.

Now, let's establish a simple relation:

Placement speed x Efficiency = Placed quantity / time,

solving for time. we have

t = \frac{q}{\epsilon s} = \frac{250 cy}{0.8\times 32\frac{cy}{h}} = \mathbf{9.765625 h}.

What would a series circuit be used for?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

a series circuit would be an odd choice to power a battery or light a lamp when a direct would be much more efficient, and it's not converting types of energy, so C is the best possible answer

A concave mirror has a focal length of 30.0 CM. an object is placed 15.0 CM from the mirror. what is the radius of curvature of
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

60 cm

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Focal length of a concave mirror as  30.0 cm
  • Object distance is 15.0 cm

We are required to determine the radius of curvature.

We need to know that the radius of a curvature is the radius of a circle from which the curved mirror is part.

We also need to know that the radius of curvature is twice the focal length of a curved mirror.

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × Focal length

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × 30 cm

                                 = 60 cm

Monica [59]

Answer:

a)  x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m

Explanation:

Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.

Given:

- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)

- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3  (our coordinate)

Find:

-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.

-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system

Solution:

- The position of horse according to radar gun:

                              v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2

- Separate variables:

                              dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt

- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0

                             x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

- time @ x = 2 :

                              2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

                              0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2

- solve for t:

                              t = 0.1875 s

- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s

                              x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3

                              x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
