Answer:

D. By pressing gradually

Explanation:

When driving, the ideal way to apply pressure onto pedals is by pressing gradually as when you press the pedal more fuel goes into the engine and the speed of the car increases. Because of that, when you are driving it is better to have a steady increase in the pressure because that allows you to maintain the control of the car and avoid risky situations.

On July 23, 1983, Air Canada Flight 143 required 22,300 kg of jet fuel to fly from Montreal to Edmonton. The density of jet fuel

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

20, 083 L

Explanation:

The mistake was the result of not using units when converting the 7862 l to Kg. They used the density in pounds hence they multiplied by 1.77 Lb/L and obtained 13597 Lb not Kg as they assumed.

To obtain the amount needed to refuel they subtracted this quantity from the 22,300 Kg required for the trip again obtaining the wrong quantity of 8703 Kg and they converted this to liters by dividing the density to get 4916 L and then placed then 5000 L of fuel

The quantity required was

7862 L * 1.77 Lb/L = 13915.74 Lb (pounds not kilos)

then converting this pounds to Kg by multiplying by 0.454 Kg/L one gets

6173 Kg on board

Amount Required

( 22,300 -6173) : 16127 Kg

16127 Kg/ 0.803 Kg/L = 20083 L

Explain what a margin of safety is in driving as well as how it can help minimize risk.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

A safety margin is the space left between your vehicle and the next to provide room, time and visibility at every instant

Explanation:

A safety margin is defined as an allowance given between your vehicle and the next vehicle in front to provide enough room, visibility and time to move in a safe manner to prevent the occurrence of an accident at anytime the frontal vehicle suddenly stops or slows down

Safety margins help minimize risks in the following way

1) A common knowledge of safety margins, improves predictability among road users, thereby minimizing the risk traffic accidents caused due to late communication

2) The use of safety margins helps minimize the risk due to a change in driving conditions such as when the road becomes more slippery from being covered with fluid that is being wetted

3) Safety margin can help prevent the occurrence of an accident between vehicles due to failure of a car system, such as a punctured tire or failed breaking system

4) Safety margin helps to protect road users from the introduction of obstacles on the main roads such as ongoing road construction, broken down vehicles, road blockage by vehicles involved in an accident etc

5) Safety margin help protect road users from being involved in an accident due to the loss of driving focus of the driver of the frontal vehicle

1. Which of the following will cause a spark knock?

zlopas [31]

Answer:

I couldn't find options for your question online, but I can give you an explanation so you can choose the correct option.

Explanation:

A spark knock is a form of unpredictable behavior that occurs in combustion, that is, in the chemical reaction that occurs between oxygen and an oxidizable material. Such combustion is usually manifested by incandescence or flame.

The spark knock is a detonation that occurs when there is a lot of pressure in the fuel.

<u>Some situations in which this can happen are: </u>

Engine overloaded.
Maximum pressure in the cylinders.
Engine overheated.
Overheated air.
Long and excessive engine ignition timing.
Spark plug at high temperatures.

If you are interested only in the temperature range of 20° to 40°C and the ADC has a 0 to 3V input range, design a signal condit

mario62 [17]

Explanation:

Temperature range → 0 to 80'c

respective voltage output → 0.2v to 0.5v

required temperature range 20'c to 40'c

Where T = 20'c respective voltage

$\begin{aligned}v_{20} &=0.2+\frac{0.5-0.8}{80} \times 20 \\&=0.2+\frac{0.3}{80} \times 20 \\V_{20} &=0.275 v\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\text { when } T=40^{\circ} C & \text { . } \\v_{40} &=0.2+\frac{0.5-0.2}{80} \times 40 \\&=0.35 V\end{aligned}$

Therefore, Sensor output changes from 0.275v to 0.35volts for the ADC the required i/p should cover the dynamic range of ADC (ie - 0v to 3v)

so we have to design a circuit which transfers input voltage 0.275volts - 0.35v to 0 - 3v

Therefore, the formula for the circuit will be

$\begin{array}{l}v_{0}=\left(v_{i n}-0.275\right) G \\\sigma=\ldots \frac{3-0}{0.35-0.275}=3 / 0.075=40 \\v_{0}=\left(v_{i n}-0.275\right) 40\end{array}$

The simplest circuit will be a op-amp

NOTE: Refer the figure attached

Vs is sensor output

Vr is the reference volt, Vr = 0.275v

$\begin{aligned}v_{0}=& v_{s}-v_{v}\left(1+\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}\right) \\\Rightarrow & \frac{1+\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}}{2}=40 \\& \frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}=39 \quad \Rightarrow\end{aligned}$

choose R2, R1 such that it will maintain required ratio

The output Vo can be connected to voltage buffer if you required better isolation.

What is the thermal efficiency of this regeneration cycle in terms of enthalpies and fractions of total flow?

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

$\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}$

Explanation:

generally regeneration of cycle is used in the case of gas turbine. due to regeneration efficiency of turbine is increased but there is no effect on the on the net work out put of turbine.Actually in regeneration net heta input is decreases that is why total efficiency increase.

Now from T-S diagram

$W_{net}=W_{out}-W_{in}$
