Answer:

z = \frac{3-4.18}{1.19}=-0.992

z = \frac{5-4.18}{1.19}=0.689

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.992

And then we can conclude that the probability that someone watches between 3 and 5 hours a day is approximately 0.591 using a normal distribution

Explanation:

For this case we can define the random variable X as "hours that a person watches television". For this case we don't have the distribution for X but we have the following parameters:

\mu = 4.18,\sigma =1.19

We can assume that the distribution for X is normal

X \sim N(\mu = 4.18 , \sigma =1.19)

And we want to find this probability:

P(3

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac[X- \mu}{\sigma}

And we can find the z score for each limit and we got:

z = \frac{3-4.18}{1.19}=-0.992

z = \frac{5-4.18}{1.19}=0.689

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.992

And then we can conclude that the probability that someone watches between 3 and 5 hours a day is approximately 0.591 using a normal distribution

Differences between acidic and basic Bessemer process​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

In the acid processes, deoxidation can take place in the furnaces, leaving a reasonable time for the inclusions to rise into the sla*g and so be removed before casting. Whereas in the basic furnaces, deoxidation is rarely carried out in the presence of the sla*g, otherwise phosphorus would return to the metal.

To compute the energy used by a motor, multiply the power that it draws by the time of operation. Con- sider a motor that draws
ehidna [41]

Answer:

E=52000Hp.h

E=38724920Wh

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must multiply the engine power by the time factor expressed in h / year, to find this value you must perform the conventional unit conversion procedure.

Finally, when you have the result Hp h / year you convert it to Ftlb and Wh

E=(12.5hp)(\frac{16h}{day} )(\frac{5 days}{week} )(\frac{52week}{year} )\\

E=52000Hp.h

E=52000Hp.h(\frac{744.71Wh}{Hp.h} )\\

E=38724920Wh

E=52000Hph(\frac{1977378.4  ft lb}{1Hph}

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

Charging method .Constant current method​
mina [271]

Answer:

There are three common methods of charging a battery; constant voltage, constant current and a combination of constant voltage/constant current with or without a smart charging circuit.

Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage.  The current will then taper down to a minimum value once that voltage level is reached.  The battery can be left connected to the charger until ready for use and will remain at that “float voltage”, trickle charging to compensate for normal battery self-discharge.

Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating.  Charge times are relatively long with the disadvantage that the battery may overheat if it is over-charged, leading to premature battery replacement.  This method is suitable for Ni-MH type of batteries.  The battery must be disconnected, or a timer function used once charged.

Constant voltage / constant current (CVCC) is a combination of the above two methods.  The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level.  The current then reduces as the battery becomes fully charged.  The lead acid battery uses the constant current constant voltage (CC/CV) charge method. A regulated current raises the terminal voltage until the upper charge voltage limit is reached, at which point the current drops due to saturation.

Why do we care about a material's ability to resist torsional deformation?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

(A) Because the angle of twist of a material is often used to predict its shear toughness

Explanation:

In engineering, torsion is the solicitation that occurs when a moment is applied on the longitudinal axis of a construction element or mechanical prism, such as axes or, in general, elements where one dimension predominates over the other two, although it is possible to find it in diverse situations.

The torsion is characterized geometrically because any curve parallel to the axis of the piece is no longer contained in the plane initially formed by the two curves. Instead, a curve parallel to the axis is twisted around it.

The general study of torsion is complicated because under that type of solicitation the cross section of a piece in general is characterized by two phenomena:

1- Tangential tensions appear parallel to the cross section.

2- When the previous tensions are not properly distributed, which always happens unless the section has circular symmetry, sectional warps appear that make the deformed cross sections not flat.
