The elevation might be higher causing more rain

Answer:

It's because the moisture in the air condenses much quicker at a higher elevation. When the air condenses, rain clouds are formed. The side the air comes from is called the windward side, which is where there is more rainfall.

A well insulated turbine operates at steady state. Steam enters the turbine at 4 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 3015.4 kJ/kg an

Anarel [89]

Answer:

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW

Explanation:

given data

pressure = 4 MPa

specific enthalpy h1 = 3015.4 kJ/kg

velocity v1 = 10 m/s

pressure = 0.07 MPa

specific enthalpy h2 = 2431.7 kJ/kg

velocity v2 = 90 m/s

mass flow rate = 11.95 kg/s

solution

we apply here thermodynamic equation that

energy equation that is

$h1 + \frac{v1}{2} + q = h2 + \frac{v2}{2} + w$

put here value with

turbine is insulated so q = 0

so here

$3015.4 *1000 + \frac{10^2}{2} = 2431.7 * 1000 + \frac{90^2}{2} + w$

solve we get

w = 579700 J/kg = 579.7 kJ/kg

and

W = mass flow rate × w

W = 11.95 × 579.7

W = 6927.415 kW

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW

Two thousand pieces will flow through from the first machine A to the final machine F based on the given sequence of operations.

Vlad1618 [11]

The total number of trips that the vehicle has to make based on the given sequence of operation is 120 trips.

"Your question is not complete, it seems to be missing the following information;"

The sequence of operation is A - E - D - C - B - A - F

The given parameters;

number of pieces that will flow from the first machine A to machine F, = 2,000 pieces
initial unit load specified in the first machine, L₁ = 50
final unit load, L₂ = 100
the capacity of the vehicle = 1 unit load

The given sequence of operation of the vehicle;

A - E - D - C - B - A - F

the vehicle makes 6 trips for 100 unit loads

The total number of trips that the vehicle has to make, in order to transport the 2000 pieces of the load given, is calculated as follows.

100 unit loads ----------------- 6 trips

2000 unit loads --------------- ?

$= \frac{2000}{100} \times 6\\\\= 120 \ trips$

Thus, the total number of trips that the vehicle has to make based on the given sequence of operation is 120 trips.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

b. the supremacy clause

Explanation:

This is clearly a violation of the supremacy clause of the constitution. The supremacy clause makes the constitution and federal laws made under the constitutional authority the supreme law of the united state. And in a case where there is a conflicting state law, as we have here with Oregon, the federal law is supposed to take priority.

So in this case where the federal law and the state law do not agree, the feral law has the power to override the law of the state. So oregon has violated the supremacy clause
