Answer:

Sensor/transducer: bimetallic thermometer

Output: displacement of thermometer tip

Control Tstages: mercury contact switch (open:furnace off; closed:furnace on

Explanation:

for a standard room thermostat : This is the device that sets/determines the temperature of an enclosure.

Sensor/transducer: bimetallic thermometer: Bimetalic thermometer are used for measuring the temperature of the ambient air . bimetallic thermometer actually contains two metals. they undergo linear expansivity as the temperature of the room changes.in other words, they experience contraction and expansion with increase or decrease in temperature.The sensor is basically coupled with a transducer which turns the measured variable(Temperature) into something else, such as a movement on a dial or an electrical signal

Output: displacement of thermometer tip

Controller: mercury contact switch (open:furnace off; closed:furnace on)

once the contact switch is open the furnace can go off. when the contact switch is closed, the furnace will come up.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The correct answer is 'velocity'of liquid flowing out of an orifice is proportional to the square root of the 'height' of liquid above the center of the orifice.

Explanation:

Torricelli's theorem states that

$v_{exit}=\sqrt{2gh}$

where

$v_{exit}$ is the velocity with which the fluid leaves orifice

$h$ is the head under which the flow occurs.

Thus we can compare the given options to arrive at the correct answer

Velocity is proportional to square root of head under which the flow occurs.

A continuous random variable, X, whose probability density function is given by f(x) = ( λe−λx , if x ≥ 0 0, otherwise is said t

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

a) $F(x) = \lambda \int_0^{\infty} e^{-\lambda x} dx= -e^{-\lambda x} \Big|_0^{\infty} = 1- e^{-\lambda x} \$

b) $P(10 < X$

Explanation:

Previous concepts

The cumulative distribution function (CDF) F(x),"describes the probability that a random variableX with a given probability distribution will be found at a value less than or equal to x".

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution".

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest. We know on this case that $X\sim Exp(\lambda)$

And we know the probability denisty function for x given by:

$f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x} , x\geq 0$

In order to find the cdf we need to do the following integral:

$F(x) = \lambda \int_0^{\infty} e^{-\lambda x} dx= -e^{-\lambda x} \Big|_0^{\infty} = 1- e^{-\lambda x} \$

Part b

Assuming that $X \sim Exp(\lambda =0.1)$ , then the density function is given by:

$f(x) = 0.1 e^{-0.1 x} dx , x\geq 0$

And for this case we want this probability:

$P(10 < X$

And evaluating the integral we got:

$P(10 < X$

Ethics in production is a subset of business ethic that is meant to ensure that the production function or activities are not damaging to the consumer or the society. Like other ethics there is a certain code of conduct or standards to be followed, however ensuring that the ethics are complied with is often difficult.
