An inventor tries to sell you his new heat engine that takes in 40 J of heat at 87°C on each cycle, expels 30 J at 27°C, and doe

s 10 J of work. Would it be wise to invest in this engine?

Answer:

NOT WISE

Explanation:

given,

T₁ = 87⁰C  =  273 + 87 = 360 K

T₂ = 27⁰C  =  273 + 27 = 300 K

work output given = 10 J

efficiency will be equal to :

   \eta = 1 - \dfrac{T_2}{T_1}\\\eta = 1 - \dfrac{300}{360}\\\eta = 0.166

output delivery =  η ₓ input

                          =  0.166 ₓ 40  

                          = 6.66 J

hence, the output of new engine  is less than the old one so, investing in new engine will not be feasible.

(D)<br> 13. Describe the differences between an impact socket and a conventional socket.
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The wall of an impact socket is around 50% thicker than that of a regular socket, making it suitable for use with pneumatic impact tools, whereas regular sockets should only be used on hand tools.

Explanation:

This allows the socket to remain securely attached to the impact wrench anvil, even under high stress situations.

For this problem, you may not look at any other code or pseudo-code (even if it is on the internet), other than what is on our w
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

(a)

(i) pseudo code :-

current = i

// assuming parent of root is -1

while A[parent] < A[current] && parent != -1 do,

if A[parent] < A[current] // if current element is bigger than parent then shift it up

swap(A[current],A[parent])

current = parent

(ii) In heap we create a complete binary tree which has height of log(n). In shift up we will take maximum steps equal to the height of tree so number of comparison will be in term of O(log(n))

(b)

(i) There are two cases while comparing with grandparent. If grandparent is less than current node then surely parent node also will be less than current node so swap current node with parent and then swap parent node with grandparent.

If above condition is not true then we will check for parent node and if it is less than current node then swap these.

pseudo code :-

current = i

// assuming parent of root is -1

parent is parent node of current node

while A[parent] < A[current] && parent != -1 do,

if A[grandparent] < A[current] // if current element is bigger than parent then shift it up

swap(A[current],A[parent])

swap(A[grandparent],A[parent])

current = grandparent

else if A[parent] < A[current]

swap(A[parent],A[current])

current = parent

(ii) Here we are skipping the one level so max we can make our comparison half from last approach, that would be (height/2)

so order would be log(n)/2

(iii) C++ code :-

#include<bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

// function to return index of parent node

int parent(int i)

{

if(i == 0)

return -1;

return (i-1)/2;

}

// function to return index of grandparent node

int grandparent(int i)

{

int p = parent(i);

if(p == -1)

return -1;

else

return parent(p);

}

void shift_up(int A[], int n, int ind)

{

int curr = ind-1; // because array is 0-indexed

while(parent(curr) != -1 && A[parent(curr)] < A[curr])

{

int g = grandparent(curr);

int p = parent(curr);

if(g != -1 && A[g] < A[curr])

{

swap(A[curr],A[p]);

swap(A[p],A[g]);

curr = g;

}

else if(A[p] < A[curr])

{

swap(A[p],A[curr]);

curr = p;

}

}

}

int main()

{

int n;

cout<<"enter the number of elements :-\n";

cin>>n;

int A[n];

cout<<"enter the elements of array :-\n";

for(int i=0;i<n;i++)

cin>>A[i];

int ind;

cout<<"enter the index value :- \n";

cin>>ind;

shift_up(A,n,ind);

cout<<"array after shift up :-\n";

for(int i=0;i<n;i++)

cout<<A[i]<<" ";

cout<<endl;

}

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Personal computers:

Personal computers may be useful and lead to productivity as using a computer an employee familiars with is a good thing. However, the disadvantages in some facilities especially ones dealing with customer and information security can include data theft, unauthorized data sharing, uses of internet connection for personal purposes, as this can slow down internet connection at the facility, distraction at work place etc.

Hard drive:

Due to large amount of data that can be stored on a hard drive, it might not be allowed in some facilities to avoid data theft and unauthorized transfer.

Music players:

This might be restricted to avoid distraction at work. Noice in places such as libraries would cause abnormality and poor service delivery. An employee with loud speaker at work would not only distracts himself but also other staffs and customers.

PSP Game Device and other game devices:

Playing games during working hour may jeopardize the productivity and therefore might be resctrited in some facilities and working places.

Electronic digital notepad:

Carrying a handheld electronic digital notepad to the work place can cause lack of concentration and division of attention on work and other personal activities. These can harm working harmony and business productivity.

Video recorder:

In some facilities, this device might not be allowed due to facility privacy and protection from unwanted navigation.

A 650-kN column load is supported on a 1.5 m square, 0.5 m deep spread footing. The soil below is a well-graded, normally consol
insens350 [35]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Determine the weight of footing

W_{f}=\gamma(L)(B)(D)

Where W_{f} is the weight of footing, γ is the unit weight of concrete,  L is the length of footing is the width of footing, and D is the depth of footing

Substitute 2 m \text { for } L, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 23.6 kN / m ^{3} for γ in the equation

\begin{aligned}W_{f} &=\left(23.6 kN / m ^{3}\right)(2 m )(1.5 m )(0.5 m ) \\&=35.4 kN\end{aligned}

Therefore, the weight of the footing is 35.4 kN

Determine the initial vertical effective stress.

\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}=\gamma(D+B)-u

Here,   \sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime} is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface  γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute 18 kN / m ^{3} \text { for } \gamma, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 0 for u in the equation

\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z p}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(1.5+0.5) m -0 \\&=36 kPa\end{aligned}

Therefore, the initial vertical stress is 36 kPa

Determine the vertical effective stress.

\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}=\gamma D

Here,   \sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime} is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface  γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute \(18 kN / m ^{3}\) for \(\gamma, 0.5 m\) for \(D\) and 0 for \(u\) in the equation.

\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z b}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(0.5 m )-0 \\&=9 kPa\end{aligned}

Therefore, the vertical stress at a depth below the ground surface is

9 kPa

Determine the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer,

I_{e p}=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{q-\sigma_{s 0}^{\prime}}{\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}}}

Here I_{e p} is the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer  \sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime} is initial vertical stress, \sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime} is vertical effective stress, and Q is bearing pressure

Substitute 36 kPa for \(\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}, 228.47\) kPa for \(q,\) and 9 kPa for \(\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}\) in the equation\begin{aligned}I_{\epsilon P} &=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{228.47 kPa -9 kPa }{36 kPa }} \\&=0.75\end{aligned}

Therefore the influence factor at the midpoint of the soil layer is 0.693
