Why doesn’t the servant kill the child oedipus as he was ordered to do

1 answer:

6 0

The Servant does not kill the child Oedipus as he was ordered to do because "He pitied the child" based on the Oedipus Rex story. The servant was ordered to kill the child because of the prophecy that predicted King Laius' death. The king already had attempted to hurt Oedipus by piercing Oedipus's ankle. However, the servant did not finish the job and he rather saved the baby Oedipus.

A large heat pump should upgrade 5 MW of heat at 85°C to be delivered as heat at 150°C. Suppose the actual heat pump has a COP o

AysviL [449]

Answer:

W=2 MW

Explanation:

Given that

COP= 2.5

Heat extracted from 85°C

Qa= 5 MW

Lets heat supplied at 150°C = Qr

The power input to heat pump = W

From first law of thermodynamics

Qr= Qa+ W

We know that COP of heat pump given as

$COP=\dfrac{Qr}{W}$

$2.5=\dfrac{5}{W}$

W=2 MW

For Carnot heat pump

$COP=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-T_1}$

$2.5=\dfrac{T_2}{T_2-(273+85)}$

2.5 T₂ - 895= T₂

T₂=596.66 K

T₂=323.6 °C

Which of the following would require the filing of an EIS? a. expansion of an airport in a national park b. allowing snowmobiles

alekssr [168]

Answer:

d. All of the above would require an EIS.

Explanation:

A document prepared with the aim of describing the impacts of suggested operations on the environment is an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). There was a mistake. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is therefore a report describing the environmental effects resulting from a current action. All of the activities above would have an effect on the environment and therefore must fill an EIS

A wood pole with a diameter of 10 in. has a moisture content of 5%. The fiber saturation point (FSP) for this wood is 30%. The w

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

a) Δd(change in wood diameter) = 5%

b) The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter

C) new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in

Explanation:

Wood pole diameter = 10 inches

moisture content = 5%

FSP = 30%

A) The percentage change in the wood's diameter

note : moisture fluctuations from 5% to 30% causes dimensional changes in the wood but above 30% up to 55% causes no change. hence this formula can be used to calculate percentage change in the wood's diameter

Δd/d = 1/5(30 - 5)

Δd/d = 5%

Δd = 5%

B) would the wood swell or shrink

The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter

C) The new diameter of the wood

D2 = D + D( $\frac{M1}{100}$ )

D = initial diameter= 10 in , M1 = initial moisture content = 5%

therefore D2 = 10 + 10( 5/100 )

new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in
