What does a peak flow meter allow you to assess?

Engineering
1 answer:
Alex Ar [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  peak flow and any engineering considerations related thereto

Explanation:

It should be no surprise that a peak flow meter will report peak flow, sometimes with important maximum-value, time-constant, or bandwidth limitations. There are many engineering issues related to flow rates. A peak flow meter can allow you to assess those issues with respect to the flows actually encountered.

Peak flow can allow you to assess adequacy of flow and whether there may be blockages or impediments to flow that reduce peak levels below expected values. An appropriate peak flow meter can help you assess the length of time that peak flow can be maintained, and whether that delivers sufficient volume.

It can also allow you to assess whether appropriate accommodation is made for unexpectedly high flow rates. (Are buffers or overflow tanks of sufficient size? Is there adequate protection against possible erosion? Is there adequate support where flow changes direction?)

A large class with 1,000 students took a quiz consisting of ten questions. To get an A, students needed to get 9 or 10 questions
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

a. 0.11

b. 110 students

c. 50 students

d. 0.46

e. 460 students

f. 540 students

g. 0.96

Explanation:

(See attachment below)

a. Probability that a student got an A

To get an A, the student needs to get 9 or 10 questions right.

That means we want P(X≥9);

P(X>9) = P(9)+P(10)

= 0.06+0.05=0.11

b. How many students got an A on the quiz

Total students = 1000

Probability of getting A = 0.11 ---- Calculated from (a)

Number of students = 0.11 * 1000

Number of students = 110 students

So,the number of students that got A is 110

c. How many students did not miss a single question

For a student not to miss a single question, then that student scores a total of 10 out of possible 10

P(10) = 0.05

Total Students = 1000

Number of Students = 0.05 * 1000

Number of Students = 50 students

We see that 5

d. Probability that a student pass the quiz

To pass, a student needed to get at least 6 questions right.

So we want P(X>=6);

P(X>=) =P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)

=0.08+0.12+0.15+0.06+0.05=0.46

So, the probability of a student passing the quiz is 0.46

e. Number of students that pass the quiz

Total students = 1000

Probability of passing the quiz = 0.46 ----- Calculated from (d)

Number of students = 0.46 * 1000

Number of students = 460 students

So,the number of students that passed the test is 460

f. Number of students that failed the quiz

Total students = 1000

Total students that passed = 460 ----- Calculated from (e)

Number of students that failed = 1000 - 460

Number of students that failed = 540

So,the number of students that failed is 540

g. Probability that a student got at least one question right

This means that we want to solve for P(X>=1)

Using the complement rule,

P(X>=1) = 1 - P(X<1)

P(X>=1) = 1 - P(X=0)

P(X>=1) = 1 - 0.04

P(X>=1) = 0.96

A tank with some water in it begins to drain. The function v ( t ) = 46 − 3.5 t determines the volume of the water in the tank (
olchik [2.2K]

Answer with Explanation:

Part a)

The volume of water in the tank as a function of time is plotted in the below attached figure.

The vertical intercept of the graph is 46.

Part b)

The vertical intercept represents the volume of water that is initially present in the tank before draining begins.

Part c)

To find the time required to completely drain the tank we calculate the volume of the water in the tank to zero.

0=46-3.5t\\\\3.5=46\\\\\therefore t=\frac{46}{3.5}=13.143minutes

Part d)

The horizontal intercept represents the time it takes to empty the tank which as calculated above is 13.143 minutes.
