Answer: No, the mining process isn't faster when you know in advance that the land must be restored.

Explanation:

The mining process would be slower when mining companies know in advance that the land must be restored because they have to be more careful about their impact on the environment & avoid taking unnecessary damage to ruin the land which they know they must restore.

So, it's evident how this would slow down the mining process. If there were no obligations to restore land, the mining companies would just come at the mining space and run their mining process fast without big concerns for the consequences.

But the caution definitely slows them down.

You set a sensor to transmit the wind speed on top of a mountain. Which of these languages are you most likely to have used?

kifflom [539]

The programming language that is most likely used to transmit the wind speed is: B. SQL.

SQL is an acronym for structured query language and it can be defined as a domain-specific programming language that is designed and developed for the management of various data that are saved in a relational or structured database.

This ultimately implies that, a structured query language (SQL) can be used to communicate with a database in accordance with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards.

In conclusion, the programming language that is most likely used to transmit the wind speed is SQL.

The design specifications of a 1.2-m long solid circular transmission shaft require that the angle of twist of the shaft not exc

Verizon [17]

Answer:

c = 18.0569 mm

Explanation:

Strategy

We will find required diameter based on angle of twist and based on shearing stress. The larger value will govern.

Given Data

Applied Torque

T = 750 N.m

Length of shaft

L = 1.2 m

Modulus of Rigidity

G = 77.2 GPa

Allowable Stress

г = 90 MPa

Maximum Angle of twist

∅=4°

∅=4* $\pi$ /180

∅=69.813 *10^-3 rad

Required Diameter based on angle of twist

∅=TL/GJ

∅=TL/G* $\pi$ /2*c^4

∅=2TL/G* $\pi$ *c^4

c= $\sqrt[4]{2TL/\pi G }$ ∅

c=18.0869 *10^-3 rad

Required Diameter based on shearing stress

г = T/J*c

г = [T/(J* $\pi$ /2*c^4)]*c

г =[2T/(J* $\pi$ *c^4)]*c

c=17.441*10^-3 rad

Minimum Radius Required

We will use larger of the two values

c= 18.0569 x 10^-3 m

c = 18.0569 mm

An inventor claims to have invented a heat engine that operates between the temperatures of 627°C and 27°C with a thermal effici

Oksana_A [137]

Answer Explanation:

the efficiency of the the engine is given by=1- $\frac{T_2}{T_1}$

where T₂= lower temperature

T₁= Higher temperature

we have given efficiency =70%

lower temperature T₂=27°C=273+27=300K

higher temperature T₁=627°C=273+627=900K

efficiency=1- $\frac{T_2}{T_1}$

=1- $\frac{300}{900}$

=1-0.3333

=0.6666

=66%

66% is less than 70% so so inventor claim is wrong

What is the minimum efficiency of a functioning current-model catalytic converter? a. 60% b. 75% c. 80% d. 90%

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

d. 90%

Explanation:

As we know that internal combustion engine produce lot's of toxic gases to reduce these toxic gases in the environment a device is used and this device is know as current modeling converter.

Generally the efficiency of current model catalytic converter is more than 90%.But the minimum efficiency this converter is 90%.

So option d is correct.

d. 90%
