Answer:

Production Function : TFSq = f { ingredient 1 ...... ing. i }

Increasing/ Constant/  Increasing Returns to Scale :

Output change > / = / < Input change respectively

Explanation:

Production Function is the relationship between production inputs & outputs, given technology. It denotes the maximum output that can be generated with given inputs.

Tutti Frutti Smoothie [TFS] quantity = Function of {Ingredient1.....ingredient i}

Returns to Scale represents change in output when all inputs change in same proportion.

  • Constant Returns to Scale [CRS] : Output Change = All inputs change
  • Increasing Returns to Scale [IRS] : Output Change > All inputs change
  • Negative Returns to Scale [NRS] : Output Change < All inputs change

When all inputs (ingredients) change by same proportion i.e get twice 2X :- If output of Tutti Frutti Smoothie increases by > 2X  i.e 3X - IRS.  If it increases equal ie 2X - CRS. If it increases lesser i.e 1.5X - CRS.

Pipe Diameter and Reynolds Number. An oil is being pumped inside a 10.0-mm-diameter pipe at a Reynolds number of 2100. The oil d
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The velocity in the pipe is 5.16m/s. The pipe diameter for the second fluid should be 6.6 mm.

Explanation:

Here the first think you have to consider is the definition of the Reynolds number (Re) for flows in pipes. Rugly speaking, the Reynolds number is an adimensonal parameter to know if the fliud flow is in laminar or turbulent regime. The equation to calculate this number is:

Re=\frac{\rho v D}{\mu}

where \rhois the density of the fluid, \mu is the viscosity, D is the pipe diameter and v is the velocity of the fluid.

Now, we know that Re=2100. So the velocity is:

v=\frac{Re*\mu}{\rho*D} =\frac{2100*2.1x10^{-2}Pa*s }{855kg/m^3*0.01m} =5.16m/s

For the second fluid, we want to keep the Re=2100 and v=5.16m/s. Therefore, using the equation of Reynolds number the diameter is:

D=\frac{Re*\mu}{\rho*v} =\frac{2100*1.5x10^{-2}Pa*s}{925kg/m^3*5.16m/s}=6.6 mm

An air-standard Diesel cycle engine operates as follows: The temperatures at the beginning and end of the compression stroke are
Vika [28.1K]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

An air-standard Diesel cycle engine operates as follows: The temperatures at the beginning and end of the compression stroke are 30 °C and 700 °C, respectively. The net work per cycle is 590.1 kJ/kg, and the heat transfer input per cycle is 925 kJ/kg. Determine the a) compression ratio, b) maximum temperature of the cycle, and c) the cutoff ratio, v3/v2.

Use the cold air standard assumptions.

Answer:

a) The compression ratio is 18.48

b) The maximum temperature of the cycle is 1893.4 K

c) The cutoff ratio, v₃/v₂ is 1.946

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Temperature at the start of a compression T₁ = 30°C = (30 + 273) = 303 K

Temperature at the end of a compression T₂ = 700°C = (700 + 273) = 973 K

Net work per cycle W_{net = 590.1 kJ/kg

Heat transfer input per cycle Qs = 925 kJ/kg

a) compression ratio;

As illustrated in the diagram below, 1 - 2 is adiabatic compression;

so,

Tγ^{Y-1 = constant { For Air, γ = 1.4 }

hence;

⇒ V₁ / V₂ = ( T₂ / T₁ )^{\frac{1}{Y-1}

so we substitute

⇒ V₁ / V₂ = (  973 K / 303 K  )^{\frac{1}{1.4-1}

= (  3.21122  )^{\frac{1}{0.4}

= 18.4788 ≈ 18.48

Therefore, The compression ratio is 18.48

b) maximum temperature of the cycle

We know that for Air, Cp = 1.005 kJ/kgK

Now,

Heat transfer input per cycle Qs = Cp( T₃ - T₂ )

we substitute

925 = 1.005( T₃ - 700 )

( T₃ - 700 ) = 925 / 1.005

( T₃ - 700 ) = 920.398

T₃ = 920.398 + 700

T₃ = 1620.398 °C

T₃ = ( 1620.398 + 273 ) K

T₃ = 1893.396 K ≈ 1893.4 K

Therefore, The maximum temperature of the cycle is 1893.4 K

c)  the cutoff ratio, v₃/v₂;

Since pressure is constant, V ∝ T

So,

cutoff ratio S = v₃ / v₂  = T₃ / T₂

we substitute

cutoff ratio S = 1893.396 K / 973 K

cutoff ratio S = 1.9459 ≈ 1.946

Therefore, the cutoff ratio, v₃/v₂ is 1.946

For this question you must write a java class called Rectangle and a client class called RectangleClient. The partial Rectangle
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Java program is given below. You can get .class after you execute java programs, You can attach those files along with .java classes given , Those .class files are generated ones.

Explanation:

//Rectangle.java class

public class Rectangle {

private int x;

private int y;

private int width;

private int height;

// constructs a new Rectangle with the given x,y, width, and height

public Rectangle(int x, int y, int w, int h)

{

this.x=x;

this.y=y;

this.width=w;

this.height=h;

}

// returns the fields' values

public int getX()

{

return x;

}

public int getY()

{

return y;

}

public int getWidth()

{

return width;

}

public int getHeight()

{

return height;

}

// returns a string such as “Coordinate is (5,12) and dimension is 4x8” where 4 is width and 8 is height. public String toString()

public String toString()

{

String str="";

//add x coordidate , y-coordinate , width, height and area to str and return

str+="Coordinate is ("+x+","+y+")";

str+=" and dimension is : "+width+"x"+height;

str+=" Area is "+(width*height);

return str;

}

public void changeSize(int w,int h)

{

width=w;

height=h;

}

}

======================

//main.java

class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

//System.out.println("Hello world!");

//create an object of class Rectangle

Rectangle rect=new Rectangle(5,12,4,8);

//print info of rect using toString method

System.out.println(rect.toString());

//chamge width and height

rect.changeSize(3,10);

//print info of rect using toString method

System.out.println(rect.toString());

}

}

==========================================================================================

//Output

Coordinate is (5,12) and dimension is : 4x8 Area is 32

Coordinate is (5,12) and dimension is : 3x10 Area is 30

A single-phase transformer circuit feeds a motor and lighting load of 50 kilowatts. At a power factor of .8, the KVA rating of t
AveGali [126]

The KVA rating of the step down transformer at the given power factor would be 62.5 kVA.

<h3>What is power factor of a transformer?</h3>

Power factor (PF) is the ratio of working power, measured in kilowatts (kW), to apparent power, measured in kilovolt amperes (kVA).

PF = working power / apparent power

PF =  kW/kVA

kVA = kW/PF

kVA = 50 kW/0.8

kVA = 62.5 kVA

Thus, the KVA rating of the step down transformer at the given power factor would be 62.5 kVA.
