scoundrel [369]3 years ago

Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

num_boys = int(input("Enter number of boys :"))

num_girls = int(input("Enter number of girls :"))

budget = int(input("Enter the number of dollars spent per school year :"))

try:

dollarperstudent = budget/(num_boys+num_girls)

print("Dollar spent per student : "+str(dollarperstudent))#final result

Discuss the difference between the observed and calculated values. Is this error? If yes, what is the source?
Scrat [10]

Answer and Explanation:

In any experiment, the observed values are the actual values obtained in any experiment.

The calculated values are the values that are measured by using the observed values in a formula.

The observed values are primary values whereas the calculated values are the secondary values as calaculations are made using observed values.

Yes, if the observed values are of low accuracy.

The values should be recorded with proper care and attention in order to avoid any error.

The gas expanding in the combustion space of a reciprocating engine has an initial pressure of 5 MPa and an initial temperature
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

a). Work transfer = 527.2 kJ

b). Heat Transfer = 197.7 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

P_{1} = 5 Mpa

T_{1} = 1623°C

                       = 1896 K

V_{1} = 0.05 m^{3}

Also given \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = 20

Therefore, V_{2} = 1  m^{3}

R = 0.27 kJ / kg-K

C_{V} = 0.8 kJ / kg-K

Also given : P_{1}V_{1}^{1.25}=C

   Therefore, P_{1}V_{1}^{1.25} = P_{2}V_{2}^{1.25}

                     5\times 0.05^{1.25}=P_{2}\times 1^{1.25}

                     P_{2} = 0.1182 MPa

a). Work transfer, δW = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}-P_{2}V_{2}}{n-1}

                                  \left [\frac{5\times 0.05-0.1182\times 1}{1.25-1}  \right ]\times 10^{6}

                              = 527200 J

                             = 527.200 kJ

b). From 1st law of thermodynamics,

Heat transfer, δQ = ΔU+δW

   = \frac{mR(T_{2}-T_{1})}{\gamma -1}+ \frac{P_{1}V_{1}-P_{2}V_{2}}{n-1}

  =\left [ \frac{\gamma -n}{\gamma -1} \right ]\times \delta W

  =\left [ \frac{1.4 -1.25}{1.4 -1} \right ]\times 527.200

  = 197.7 kJ
