Answer:

<h2> The overall reliability of the system is 88%</h2>

Explanation:

When solving for the reliability of a complex machine, that is a machine that has more than one component, the reliability of the machine is the products of all individual components.

Given the

reliabilities of 98%,

96%, and

94%

Converting to decimals we have

98/100= 0.98

96/100= 0.96

94/100= 0.94

The product of all reliability is

0.98* 0.96 0.94= 0.88

now converting back to percent we have

0.88*100= 88%

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following
torisob [31]

Given:

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following for air at 300 K and engine oil at 380 K. Assume the free stream velocity is 3 m/s.

To Find:

a. The distance from the leading edge at which the transition will occur.

b. Expressions for the momentum and thermal boundary layer thicknesses as a function of x for a laminar boundary layer

c. Which fluid has a higher heat transfer

Calculation:

The transition from the lamina to turbulent begins when the critical Reynolds

number reaches 5\times 10^5

(a).  \;\text{Rex}_{cr}=5 \times 10^5\\\\\frac{\rho\;vx}{\mu}=5 \times 10^5\\\text{density of of air at}\;300K=1.16  \frac{kg}{m\cdot s}\\\text{viscosity of of air at}\;300K=1.846 \times 10^{-5} \frac{kg}{m\cdot s} \\v=3m/s\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{5\times 10^5 \times 1.846 \times 10^{-5} }{1.16 \times 3} =2.652 \;m \;\text{for air}\\(\text{similarly for engine oil at 380 K for given}\; \rho \;\text{and} \;\mu)\\

(b).\; \text{For the lamina boundary layer momentum boundary layer thickness is given by}:\\\frac{\delta}{x} =\frac{5}{\sqrt{R_e}}\;\;\;\;\quad\text{for}\; R_e(c). \frac{\delta}{\delta_t}={P_r}^{\frac{r}{3}}\\\text{For air} \;P_r \;\text{equivalent 1 hence both momentum and heat dissipate with the same rate for oil}\; \\P_r >>1 \text{heat diffuse very slowly}\\\text{So heat transfer rate will be high for air.}\\\text{Convective heat transfer coefficient will be high for engine oil.}

What is the measurement of this square?<br> A.075<br> B. 1.75<br> C. 0.34
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

0.75 in

Explanation:

The 1 inch measure has 16 divisions.

Find the measure of 1 division as: 1/16 = 0.0625 in

The side length of the square has 12 divisions

1 division = 0.0625 in

12 divisions = 0.0625*12 = 0.75 in

The correct answer choice is A. 0.75.

Answer choices B is incorrect because from the diagram, it is clear that the side length of this square is less that 1 inch.

Answer choice C is incorrect because 0.34 in will mean 0.34/0.0625 divisions. This is 5 divisions, yet the square side length covers 12 divisions.

What are three common hazardous
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

  1. SNOW SQUALLS - Squalls are substantial snow showers that cause white-out conditions. A couple of squalls are conceivable at the beginning of today through mid-evening. The most elevated possibility is north of the expressway.
  2. COLD - Because of away from and a new cover of day off, have plunged to the youngsters and 20s. There are frigid untreated surfaces.
  3. WINDS – One can expect supported breezes 15-25 mph this evening, with blasts to 40 mph. Solid breezes, alongside temperatures during the 30s, will create wind chills during the 20s.
  4. FOG - Perceivability is improving, however parts of Lancaster, Lebanon, Schuylkill, Berks, and Dauphin Provinces have decreased perceivability. With temperatures beneath freezing, mist can stick to the streets and produce frigid conditions.

Explanation:

An effect day in Pennsylvania is a day that highlights climate that will probably upset your typical every day calendar or schedule. At the point when the News 8 Tempest Group accept climate arrives at this limit, a yellow triangle with a shout imprint will show up on the figure demonstrating the climate will cause an effect. You may likewise observe the symbol utilized during a day-part figure when the News 8 Tempest Group accepts certain times may have a greater amount of an effect than others. An effect day's climate isn't viewed as outrageous or serious, perilous climate.  

Light downpour, day off, ice during a morning or night drive would be instances of effect climate. Most Pennsylvania workers can deal with driving in light downpour, day off, ice, however light downpour, day off, ice at the pinnacle of busy time can upset travel or cause mishaps because of the high volume of drivers. Thick mist over the Valley which could likewise modify a drive would be delegated an effect day.  

Moderate cold throughout the fall, winter, spring months, or warmth in the mid year months that may constrain open air presentation to the components would get this assignment.  

The Susquehanna Valley is a significant agrarian community for the locale. Pre-summer or late-summer ice or freezes that could harm or murder vegetation would fit into this class.  

Days that component consume bans from delayed droughts combined with solid breeze blasts likewise would be considered to conceivably make an effect a day ahead.

A set of civil construction plans shows a distance of 131 meters across the front of a piece of property. You need to convert th
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

429.5 ft

Explanation:

We are told that;

1 ft = 0.305 meters

We want to convert 131 meters to ft, by proportion we have;

Distance = (131 × 1)/0.305

Distance = 429.5082 ft

We want to approximate to the nearest tenth of a foot.

This gives us;

Distance = 429.5 ft
