Suppose an assembly requires five components from five different vendors. To guarantee starting the assembly on time with 90 per

cent confidence, what must the service level be for each of the five components? (Assume the same service level for each component).

Answer:

The service level for each component must be 97.91%

Explanation:

If we want a 90% confidence of starting on time, that means we need

P_{\mbox{starting on time}}=P_{\mbox{every component being ready on time}}=0.9\\

As the probability of each component being ready is independent from the others, that means that the probability of the 5 components being ready is equal to multiply each probability:

0.9=P_{\mbox{component 1 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 2 ready on time} } *\\ P_{\mbox{component 3 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 4 ready on time} } *\\P_{\mbox{component 5 ready on time} }

The probability of being ready on time is equal to the service level (in fraction), and all 5 are equal so we can say:

0.9=(\mbox{service level(in fraction)})^5\\\\\sqrt[5]{0.9} =\mbox{service level(in fraction)}=0.9791\\\mbox{In percentage}: \mbox{service level (in fraction)}*100 = 97.91\%

Answer:

McDonald’s announced recently that they are going through some major menu changes, and will be nixing some unnecessary ingredients. They also are finally listening to us, and will stop using chickens that are injected with growth-promoting antibiotics, along with dairy products raised with the growth hormone rbST but they still are using a lot of factory farmed meat and the beef is still raised with antibiotics.

McDonald’s even said they might add kale to their menu, by putting it in salads or in a smoothie. I LOVE kale, and I hope they don’t find a way to ruin it. You know the saying, “You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig”. So, they need to do a lot more than just add kale to their menu before I’d ever eat there. The problem is that millions are still eating there and consuming several questionable food additives that McDonald’s could remove entirely if they really wanted to.

An automotive fuel has a molar composition of 85% ethanol (C2H5OH) and 15% octane (C8H18). For complete combustion in air, deter
slava [35]

Answer:

a) 1

b) 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) 32.43 MJ/kg ,  1980.39 MJ/Kmol

Explanation:

molar mass of  ethanol (C2H5OH) = 46 g/mol

molar mass of   octane (C8H18) = 114 g/mol

therefore the moles of ethanol and octane

ethanol =  0.85 / 46

octane = 0.15 / 114

a) determine the molar air-fuel ratio and air-fuel ratio by mass

attached below

mass of air / mass of fuel = 12.17 / 1 = 12.17

b ) Determine the lower heating value

LHV  of  ( C2H5OH) = 26.8 * 46 = 1232.8 MJ/kmol

LHV  of (C8H18). = 44.8 mj/kg * 114 kg/kmol = 5107.2 MJ/Kmol

LHV ( MJ/kmol)  for fuel mixture = 0.85 * 1232.8 + 0.15 * 5107.2 = 1813.96 MJ/kmol

c) Determine higher heating value  ( HHV )

HHV of (C2H5OH) = 29.7 * 46 = 1366.2 MJ/kmol

HHV of C8H18 = 47.9 MJ/kg * 114 = 5460.6 MJ/kmol

HHV  in MJ/kg  = 0.85 * 29.7 + 0.15 * 47.9  = 32.43 MJ/kg

HHV in  MJ /kmol  =  0.85 * 1366.2 + 0.15 * 5460.8 = 1980.39 MJ/Kmol

technician a says an out-of-round drum can cause a pulsating brake pedal. technician b says an out-of-round drum can cause the b
denis-greek [22]

According to the question of the pulsating brake pedal, both A and B are correct.

What causes brake pulsation?

Brake pulsation is mainly caused by warped rotors/brake discs. Excessive hard braking or quick stops, which can significantly overheat the discs, are the primary causes of deformed rotors. When the discs overheat, the composition of the metal disc material changes, resulting in imperfections in the metal's surface. Hotspots are noticeable irregularities. They appear as discoloured areas of the disc material, which are often bluish or blackish in appearance. The brake pedal is the pedal which you press with your foot to slow or stop a vehicle. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the system automatically delivers the appropriate pressure required to prevent colliding with the vehicle in front.

How do technological artifacts affect the way that you live?
Maslowich

Answer:

Artefacts can influence our actions in several ways. They can be instruments, enabling and facilitating actions, where their presence affects the number and quality of the options for action available to us. They can also influence our actions in a morally more salient way, where their presence changes the likelihood that we will actually perform certain actions. Both kinds of influences are closely related, yet accounts of how they work have been developed largely independently, within different conceptual frameworks and for different purposes. In this paper I account for both kinds of influences within a single framework. Specifically, I develop a descriptive account of how the presence of artefacts affects what we actually do, which is based on a framework commonly used for normative investigations into how the presence of artefacts affects what we can do. This account describes the influence of artefacts on what we actually do in terms of the way facts about those artefacts alter our reasons for action. In developing this account, I will build on Dancy’s (2000a) account of practical reasoning. I will compare my account with two alternatives, those of Latour and Verbeek, and show how my account suggests a specification of their respective key concepts of prescription and invitation. Furthermore, I argue that my account helps us in analysing why the presence of artefacts sometimes fails to influence our actions, contrary to designer expectations or intentions.

When it comes to affecting human actions, it seems artefacts can play two roles. In their first role they can enable or facilitate human actions. Here, the presence of artefacts changes the number and quality of the options for action available to us.Footnote1 For example, their presence makes it possible for us to do things that we would not otherwise be able to do, and thereby adopt new goals, or helps us to do things we would otherwise be able to do, but in more time, with greater effort, etc

Explanation:

Technological artifacts are in general characterized narrowly as material objects made by (human) agents as means to achieve practical ends. ... Unintended by-products of making (e.g. sawdust) or of experiments (e.g. false positives in medical diagnostic tests) are not artifacts for Hilpinen.

A 1-w, 350-ω resistor is connected to 24 v. Is this resistor operating within its power rating?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

P_r = Power rating = 1 W

R = Resistance = 350\ \Omega

V = Voltage = 24\ \text{V}

Power is given by

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{24^2}{350}\\\Rightarrow P=1.65\ \text{W}

1.65\ \text{W}>1\ \text{W}

So

P>P_r

Hence, the resistor is not operating within its power rating.
