Write a function named is_float(s) that takes one argument that is a string. It returns True if string s represents a floating p

oint value and returns False otherwise. You are required to use try-except. The basic concept is to "try" to convert string s to a float and if it succeeds, return True, but if it fails (that is, an exception is raised), return False. Note that float() raises a ValueError exception.

Answer:

Explanation:

# Python Programme

#!/usr/bin/python

# Function definition is here

def is_float( str ):

try:

float(str)

return True

except ValueError:

return False

# Now you can call is_float function

print(is_float("3.45"))

print(is_float("3e4"))

print(is_float("abc"))

print(is_float("4"))

print(is_float(".5"))

Determine the total condensation rate of water vapor onto the front surface of a vertical plate that is 10 mm high and 1 m in th
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Q =  63,827.5 W

Explanation:

Given:-

- The dimensions of plate A = ( 10 mm x 1 m )

- The fluid comes at T_sat , 1 atm.

- The surface temperature, T_s = 75°C  

Find:-

Determine the total condensation rate of water vapor onto the front surface of a vertical plate

Solution:-

- Assuming drop-wise condensation the heat transfer coefficient for water is given by Griffith's empirical relation for T_sat = 100°C.

                            h = 255,310 W /m^2.K

- The rate of condensation (Q) is given by Newton's cooling law:

                           Q = h*As*( T_sat - Ts )

                           Q = (255,310)*( 0.01*1)*( 100 - 75 )

                           Q =  63,827.5 W

Correct Answer:

A. water pump

Explanation:

<em>Timing belt in a vehicle helps to ensure that crankshaft, pistons and valves operate together in proper sequence.</em> Timing belts are lighter, quieter and more efficient than chains that was previously used in vehicles.

<em>Most car manufacturers recommended that, when replacing timing belt, tension assembly, water pump, camshaft oil seal should also be replaced with it at same time. </em>
