The efficiency of a transformer is mainly dependent on: a)- Core losses b)- Copper losses c)- Stray losses d)- Dielectric losses

Which type of inappropriate practice most likely occurred if a researcher takes credit for someone else’s idea and does not ackn

Rashid [163]

Answer: the answer is plagiarism.

Explanation: Plagiarism is the act of taking credit from someone else's works or ideas, without acknowledging the author. Conflict of interest occurs when an employee has interests that are at odds to each other, which isn't shown at the excerpt given in the exercise. Fabrication is the creation of intellectual property, also not shown in the exercise, and falsification is the creation of a scientific hypothesis that cannot be verified by lack of practical evidence, which is not the case described as well.

Five kilograms of air at 427°C and 600 kPa are contained in a piston–cylinder device. The air expands adiabatically until the pr

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The entropy change of the air is $0.240kJ/kgK$

Explanation:

$T_{1} =427+273K,T_{1} =700K\\P_{1} =600kPa\\P_{2} =100kPa$

$T_{2}$ is unknown

we can apply the following expression to find $T_{2}$

$-w_{out} =mc_{v} (T_{2} -T_{1} )$

$T_{2} =T_{1} -\frac{w_{out } }{mc_{v} }$

now substitute

$T_{2} =700K-\frac{600kJ}{5kg*0.718kJ/kgK} \\T_{2}=533K$

To find entropy change of the air we can apply the ideal gas relationship

Δ $s_{air}$ $=c_{p} ln\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } -Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }$

Δ $s_{air} =$ $1.005*ln(\frac{533}{700})-0.287* in(\frac{100}{600} )$

Δ $s_{air} =0.240kJ/kgK$

What is thermodynamics system? Briefly explain (i) control mass system (ii) control volume system. Comment briefly on control ma

olga2289 [7]

Explanation:

Thermodynamics system :

Thermodynamics system is a region or space in which study of matters can be done.The system is separated from surroundings by a boundary this boundary maybe flexible or fixed it depends on situations.The out side the system is called surroundings.

Generally thermodynamics systems are of three types

1.Closed system(control mass system)

Only energy transfer take place ,no mass transfer take place.

2.Open system(control volume system)

Both mass as well as energy transfer take place.

3.Isolated system

Neither mass or nor energy transfer take place.

At steady state ,property is did not changes with respect to time.

What motivated software engineers to move from the waterfall model to the incremental or spiral model

scoray [572]

Answer:

1. They needed to develop multiple components in software programs.

2. The ability to overlap the development to be more evolutionary in nature.

3. The need to be more risk-averse or the unwillingness to take risks led to the use of a spiral model.

Explanation:

Software development life cycle (SDLC) can be defined as a strategic process or methodology that defines the key steps or stages for creating and implementing high quality software applications.

In SDLC, a waterfall model can be defined as a process which involves sequentially breaking the software development into linear phases. Thus, the development phase takes a downward flow like a waterfall and as such each phase must be completed before starting another without any overlap in the process.

An incremental model refers to the process in which the requirements or criteria of the software development is divided into many standalone modules until the program is completed.

Also, a spiral model can be defined as an evolutionary SDLC that is risk-driven in nature and typically comprises of both an iterative and a waterfall model. Spiral model of SDLC consist of these phases; planning, risk analysis, engineering and evaluation.

What motivated software engineers to move from the waterfall model to the incremental or spiral model is actually due to the following fact;

They needed to develop multiple components in software programs.

The ability to overlap the development to be more evolutionary in nature.

The need to be more risk-averse or the unwillingness to take risks led to the use of a spiral model.
