Answer:

Failure Rate

Explanation:

Failure rate is the frequency with which an engineered system or component fails, expressed for example in failures per hour.

It is often denoted by the Greek letter λ (lambda) and is important in reliability theory.

Failure rate is usually time dependent, and an intuitive corollary is that the rate changes over time versus the expected life cycle of a system

Which option should the engineers focus on as they develop the train in the following scenario?

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Engineers can design a train with a regenerative braking system

Explanation:

Assuming the point of the question is that the engineers want to focus on using energy efficiently when starting and stopping, they would likely want to consider a regenerative braking system. Such a system can store energy during braking so that it can be used during starting, reducing the amount of energy that must be supplied by an outside power source.

Six housing subdivisions within a city area are target for emergency service by a centralized fire station. Where should the new

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since there are six points, the minimum distance from all points would be the centroid of polygon formed by A,B,C,D,E,F

To find the coordinates of centroid of a polygon we use the following formula. Let A be area of the polygon.

$C_{x}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({x_{i} +x_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))$ where i=1 to N-1 and N=6

$C_{y}=\frac{1}{6A} sum(({y_{i} +y_{i+1})(x_{i}y_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_{i}))$

A area of the polygon can be found by the following formula $A=\frac{1}{2} sum(x_{i} y_{i+1} -x_{i+1} y_{i})$ where i=1 to N-1

$A=\frac{1}{2}[ (x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})+ (x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})+(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})+(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})+(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]$

A=0.5[(20×25 -25×15) +(25×32 -13×25)+(13×21 -4×32)+(4×8 -18×21)+(18×14 -25×8)

A=225.5 miles²

Now putting the value of area in Cx and Cy

$C_{x} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(x_{1}+x_{2})(x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})]+ [(x_{2}+x_{3})(x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})]+[(x_{3}+x_{4})(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})]+[(x_{4}+x_{5})(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})]+[(x_{5}+x_{6})(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]]$

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

$C_{x} =15.36$

For Cy

$C_{y} =\frac{1}{6A}[ [(y_{1}+y_{2})(x_{1} y_{2} -x_{2} y_{1})]+ [(y_{2}+y_{3})(x_{2} y_{3} -x_{3} y_{2})]+[(y_{3}+y_{4})(x_{3} y_{4} -x_{4} y_{3})]+[(y_{4}+y_{5})(x_{4} y_{5} -x_{5} y_{4})]+[(y_{5}+y_{6})(x_{5} y_{6} -x_{6} y_{5})]]$

putting the values of x's and y's you will get

$C_{y} =22.55$

So coordinates for the fire station should be (15.36,22.55)

Assume the work done compressing the He gas is -63 kJ and the internal energy change of the gas is 79 kJ. What is the heat loss

klemol [59]

Answer:

Heat gain of 142 kJ

Explanation:

We can see that job done by compressing the He gas is negative, it means that the sign convention we are going to use is negative for all the work done by the gas and positive for all the job done to the gas. With that being said, the first law of thermodynamics equation will help us to solve this problem.

Δ $U = Q + W$ ⇒ $Q =$ Δ $U -W$

$Q = 79 - (-63) = 142 kJ$

Therefore, the gas gained heat by an amount of 142 kJ.
