Answer:

Out of the four options provided

option A. actuator

is correct

Explanation:

An actuator is the only device out of the four mentioned devices that provides power and ensures the motion in it in order to manipulate the movement of the moving parts of the damper or a valve used whereas others like ratio regulator are used to regulate air or gas ratio and none mof the 3 remaining options serves the purpose

In a hydroelectric power plant, water enters the turbine nozzles at 800 kPa absolute with a low velocity. If the nozzle outlets
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The answer is VN =37.416 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that:

Pressure (atmospheric) = 100 kPa

So. we solve for the maximum velocity (m/s) to which water can be accelerated by the nozzles

Now,

Pabs =Patm + Pgauge = 800 KN/m²

Thus

PT/9.81 + VT²/2g =PN/9.81  + VN²/2g

Here

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s

800/9.81 + 0

= 100/9.81 + VN²/19.62

Here,

9.81 * 2= 19.62

Thus,

VN²/19.62 = 700/9.81

So,

VN² =1400

VN =37.416 m/s

Note: (800 - 100) = 700

A specimen of a 4340 steel alloy with a plane strain fracture toughness of 54.8 Mpa root m is exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa. W
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

It will not  experience fracture when it is exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa.

Explanation:

Given

Klc = 54.8 MPa √m

a = 0.5 mm = 0.5*10⁻³m

Y = 1.0

This problem asks us to determine whether or not the 4340 steel alloy specimen will fracture when exposed to a stress of 1030 MPa, given the values of <em>KIc</em>, <em>Y</em>, and the largest value of <em>a</em> in the material. This requires that we solve for <em>σc</em> from the following equation:

<em>σc = KIc / (Y*√(π*a))</em>

Thus

σc = 54.8 MPa √m / (1.0*√(π*0.5*10⁻³m))

⇒ σc = 1382.67 MPa > 1030 MPa

Therefore, the fracture will not occur because this specimen can handle a stress of 1382.67 MPa before experience fracture.

Twenty distinct cars park in the same parking lot every day. Ten of these cars are US-made, while the other ten are foreign-made
Zina [86]

Answer:

Total no. of ways to line up cars is 20! = 2.43 c 10^18

Probability that the cars alternate is 0.00001 or 0.001%

Explanation:

Since, the position of a car is random.Therefore, number ways in which cars can line up is given as:

<u>No. of ways = 20! = 2.43 x 10^18</u>

For the probability that cars alternate, two groups will be formed, one consisting of US-made 10 cars and other containing 10 foreign made. The number of favorable outcomes for this can be found out as the arrangements of 2! between these groups multiplied by the arrangements of 10! for each group, due to the arrangements among the groups themselves.

Favorable Outcomes = 2! x 10! x 10!

Thus the probability of event will be:

Probability = Favorable Outcomes/Total No. of Ways

Probability = (2! x 10! x 10!)/20!

<u>Probability = 0.00001 = 0.001%</u>

Why doesn’t the servant kill the child oedipus as he was ordered to do
Anni [7]
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.

However, the servant did not finish the job and he rather saved the baby Oedipus.

The presence of free oxygen in the atmosphere is attributed mainly to Volcanic activity Development of plant life, especially al
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Development of plant life, especially algae

Explanation:

The main source of oxygen in the atmosphere is the photosynthesis process that produces sugars and oxygen by utilizing carbon dioxide and water.Tiny oceanic plants called phytoplanktons  have the ability to support life in water bodies for plants, animals and fish.The phytoplanktons consume most of the carbon dioxide in air and with the help of energy from the sun, they convert nutrients and carbon dioxide to complex organic compounds which are main source of plant  material. Phytoplanktons are responsible for oxygen in water which is approximated to be 50% of world's oxygen.Green-algae is a good example of phytoplankons.
