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.

A closed, 0.4-m-diameter cylindrical tank is completely filled with oil (SG 0.9)and rotates about its vertical longitudinal axis
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: p_{B} - p_{A} = 28800 Pa or 28.8 kPa

Explanation: To determine the pressure of a liquid in a rotating tank,it is used:

p = \frac{p_{fluid}.w^{2}.r^{2} }{2} - γfluid . z + c

where:

p_{fluid} is the liquid's density

w is the angular velocity

r is the radius

γfluid.z is the pressure variation due to centrifugal force.

For this question, the difference between a point on the circumference and a point on the axis will be:

p_{B} - p_{A} = \frac{p_{fluid}.w^{2}.r_{B} ^{2} }{2} - γfluid.z_{B} - (\frac{p_{fluid}.w^{2}.r_{A} ^{2} }{2} - γfluid.z_{A})

p_{B} - p_{A} = \frac{p_{fluid}.w^{2}}{2} (r_B^{2} - r_A^{2} ) - γfluid(z_{B} -z_{A})

Since there is no variation in the z-axis, z = 0 and that the density of oil is 0.9.10³kg/m³:

p_{B} - p_{A} = \frac{p_{fluid}.w^{2}}{2} (r_B^{2} - r_A^{2} )

p_{B} - p_{A} = \frac{0.9.10^3.40^2}{2}(0.2^2 - 0)

p_{B} - p_{A} = 28800

The difference in pressure between two points, one on the circumference and the other on the axis is p_{B} - p_{A} = 28800 Pa or 28.8 kPa

     int temp;

     for(int k = 0; k< n-1; k++) {

          // (n-k-1) to ignore comparisons of already compared iterations

                 if(A[ i ] > A[ i+1] ) {

                      // swapping occurs here

                      temp = A[ i ];

                      A[ i ] = A[ i+1 ];

                      A[ i + 1] = temp ;

                  }

          }
