Answer:
yes
- electric and/or hybrid cars
- microwave ovens
- LED lighting
- low-power electronics
Explanation:
Advances in technology and changes in social organization have brought about reductions in energy use on many fronts.
- hybrid/electric vehicles have reduced transportation energy needs
- microwave ovens have reduced cooking energy needs
- LED lighting has reduced lighting energy needs
- low-power electronics have reduced the energy cost of technology and entertainment
- heat pumps and insulated windows have reduced energy needs for home heating and cooling
- zoning laws have reduced the need for travel to work and shopping areas
Answer:
The value of v2 in each case is:
A) V2=3v for only Vs1
B) V2=2v for only Vs2
C) V2=5v for both Vs1 and Vs2
Explanation:
In the attached graphic we draw the currents in the circuit. If we consider only one of the batteries, we can consider the other shorted.
Also, what the problem asks is the value V2 in each case, where:

If we use superposition, we passivate a battery and consider the circuit affected only by the other battery.
In the first case we can use an equivalent resistance between R2 and R3:

And


In the second case we can use an equivalent resistance between R2 and (R1+R4):

And


If we consider both batteries:

Answer:
The critical length of surface flaw = 6.176 mm
Explanation:
Given data-
Plane strain fracture toughness Kc = 29.6 MPa-m1/2
Yield Strength = 545 MPa
Design stress. =0.3 × yield strength
= 0.3 × 545
= 163.5 MPa
Dimensionless parameter. Y = 1.3
The critical length of surface flaw is given by
= 1/pi.(Plane strain fracture toughness /Dimensionless parameter× Design Stress)^2
Now putting values in above equation we get,
= 1/3.14( 29.6 / 1.3 × 163.5)^2
=6.176 × 10^-3 m
=6.176 mm
