Answer:

a) FALSE: the opportunity cost of an activity is the total value of all of the alternatives passed up

b) FALSE: OC is a subjective measure of cost - only the individual can estimate the expected costs/benefits himself

c) FALSE: Info is only gathered if the expected benefits from gatherings info exceeds the costs of getting the expected costs - people normally make choices based on limited and incorrect info because of convenience

d) TRUE: you can guess you will enjoy a movie and then find it too violent for your tastes

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is commonly known as the alternative option to a particular activity. It is necessary to collect as many vital information as possible. It is important to collect information for business purpose and personal reasons. A movie can be interesting and at the same time, contains horror violent scenes.

The intake and exhaust processes are not considered in the p-V diagram of Otto cycle. a) true b) false
vovangra [49]

Answer:

b) false

Explanation:

We know that Otto cycle is the ideal cycle for all petrol working engine.In Otto cycle all process are consider is ideal ,means there is no any ir-reversibility in the processes.

It consist four processes

1-2:Reversible adiabatic compression

2-3:Constant volume heat addition

3-4:Reversible adiabatic expansion

3-4:Constant volume heat rejection

Along with above 4 processes intake and exhaust processes are parallel to each other.From the P-v diagram we can see that all processes.

But actually in general we are not showing intake and exhaust line then it did not mean that in Otto cycle did not have intake and exhaust processes.

State the four advantages of levers
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Here are 2 sense i cant find 4

Explanation:

Levers are used to multiply force, In other words, using a lever gives you greater force or power than the effort you put in.

In a lever, if the distance from the effort to the fulcrum is longer than the distance from the load to the fulcrum, this gives a greater mechanical advantage.

The local atmospheric pressure is measured with a water barometer. If the water column is measured to be 30 ft, what is the atmo
ella [17]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

Explanation:

Given that

Local pressure (h)= 30 ft of water height     ( 1 ft= 0.3048 m)

We know that pressure in given by

  P=ρgh

We know that ρ of water is 1000\dfrac{kg}{m^3}

So pressure

P=1000(9.81)(9.144)

P=89.7026 \dfrac{N}{m^2}

We know that 1000 Pa=0.00986 atm

So P=0.885 atm

The atmospheric pressure in atm=0.885 atm

A transmission line (TL) of length L and conductance per unit length G' is connected to an ideal constant voltage generator V. T
Andru [333]

Answer:

The Current will decrease by a factor of 2

Explanation:

Given the conditions, it should be noted that the current in the circuit is determined by the LOAD. In other words, the amount of current generator will be producing depends upon the load connected to it.

Now, as the question says, the load is reduced to half its original value, we can write:

P1 = \sqrt{3} (V) (I1) Cos\alpha ----- (1)

P2 = \sqrt{3} (V) (I2) Cos\alpha\\

Since, P2 = P1/2,

P1/2 = \sqrt{3} (V) (I2) Cos\alpha ----- (2)\\

Dividing equations (1) and (2), we get,

P1 / (P1/2) = I1/ I2

I2 = I1 / 2\\

Hence, it is proved that the current in the transmission line will decrease by a factor of 2 when load is reduced to half.
