Answer:

The temperature attains equilibrium with the surroundings.

Explanation:

When the light bulb is lighted we know that it's temperature will go on increasing as the filament of the bulb has to constantly dissipates energy during the time in which it is on. Now this energy is dissipated as heat as we know it, this heat energy is absorbed by the material of the bulb which is usually made up of glass, increasing it's temperature. Now we know that any object with temperature above absolute zero has to dissipate energy in form of radiations.

Thus we conclude that the bulb absorbs as well as dissipates it's absorbed thermal energy. we know that this rate is dependent on the temperature of the bulb thus it the temperature of the bulb does not change we can infer that an equilibrium has been reached in the above 2 processes i.e the rate of energy absorption equals the rate of energy dissipation.

Steady state is the condition when the condition does not change with time no matter whatever the surrounding conditions are.

A slab-milling operation is performed on a 0.7 m long, 30 mm-wide cast-iron block with a feed of 0.25 mm/tooth and depth of cut

denis23 [38]

Answer:

a) $T_m=1.787min$

b) $MRR=35259.7mm^3/min$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Cast-iron block Dimension:

Length $l=0.7m=>700mm$

Width $w=30mm$

Feed $F=0.25mm/tooth$

Depth $dp=3mm$

Diameter $d=75mm$

Number of cutting teeth $n=8$

Rotation speed $N=200rpm$

Generally the equation for Approach is mathematically given by

$x=\sqrt{Dd-d^2}$

$X=\sqrt{75*3-3^2}$

$X=14.69mm$

Therefore

Effective length is given as

$L_e=Approach +object Length$

$L_e=700+14.69$

$L_e=714.69mm$

Generally the equation for Machine Time is mathematically given by

$T_m=\frac{L_e}{F_m}$

Where

$F_m=F*n*N$

$F_m=0.25*8*200$

$F_m=400$

Therefore

$T_m=\frac{714.69}{400}$

$T_m=1.787min$

Generally the equation for Material Removal Rate. is mathematically given by

$MRR=\frac{L*B*d}{t_m}$

$MRR=\frac{700*30*3}{1.787}$

$MRR=35259.7mm^3/min$

Π/4 = 1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...

leva [86]

Answer: Pi= 4 - 4/3 + 4/5 - 4/7 + 4/9 ...

Explanation:

Is the same as the example,

If Π/4 = 1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...

Then

(Π/4 )*4= 4*(1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...)

Π =4 - 4/3 + 4/5 - 4/7 + 4/9 ...

The way to write this is

Sum(from n=0 to n=inf) of (-1)^n 4/(2n+1)

It is true about Metals and alloys: a)-They are good electrical and thermal conductors b)-They can be used as semi-conductors c)

ycow [4]

Answer:

(d) a and c are correct

Explanation:

METALS : Metal are those materials which has very high ductility, high modulus of elasticity, good thermal and electrical conductivity

for example : iron, gold ,silver, copper

ALLOYS: Alloys are those materials which are made up of combining of two or more than two metals these also have good thermal and electrical conductivity and me liable property

for example ; bronze and brass

so from above discussion it is clear that option (d) will be the correct option
