Which statements describe how the Fed responds to high inflation? Check all that apply.

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:
• it charges banks more interest
• it sells more securities
• it decreases the money supply

In response to high inflation, the Fed charges banks more interests and pays the banks less interests. It also sells not securities.

Answer:

As there was no attached picture, I will explain how to take the measurement of liquids in any buret which you can then apply to the specific question

Explanation:

A buret is a laboratory apparatus used to precisely measure the volume of liquids (usually alkalise or bases) used in a titration experiment. The standard buret has a capacity of 50 ml and graduated in 0.1ml though burets with smaller capacities exist.

From the question, your buret is filled to the top (0.00ml) with liquid. It is very important when taking buret readings to place the buret below your eye level so that the bottom meniscus (lower part of the liquid) can be read.

To take the buret reading, note your initial buret reading (in this case 0.00ml) then titrate the liquid base in the buret against the acid by opening the tap located at the bottom of the buret.

When the titration or reaction is complete, note the final reading against the calibration of buret. You can do this by observing the lower meniscus of the liquid remaining in the buret. (Remember to keep the buret at eye level to avoid parallax error),

The difference between your final buret reading and the initial buret reading gives you the precise volume of liquid used in the reaction.

A pump operating at steady state receives liquid water at 20°C, 100 kPa with a mass flow rate of 53 kg/min. The pressure of the

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Input Power = 6.341 KW

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate enthalpy of the water at inlet and exit state.

At inlet, water is at 20° C and 100 KPa. Under these conditions from saturated water table:

Since the water is in compresses liquid state and the data is not available in compressed liquid chart. Therefore, we use approximation:

h₁ = hf at 20° C = 83.915 KJ/kg

s₁ = sf at 20° C = 0.2965 KJ/kg.k

At the exit state,

P₂ = 5 M Pa

s₂ = s₁ = 0.2965 K J / kg.k (Isentropic Process)

Since Sg at 5 M Pa is greater than s₂. Therefore, water is in compresses liquid state. Therefore, from compressed liquid property table:

h₂ = 88.94 KJ/kg

Now, the total work done by the pump can be calculated as:

Pump Work = W = (Mass Flow Rate)(h₂ - h₁)

W = (53 kg/min)(1 min/60 sec)(88.94 KJ/kg - 83.915 KJ/kg)

W = 4.438 KW

The efficiency of pump is given as:

efficiency = η = Pump Work/Input Power

Input Power = W/η

Input Power = 4.438 KW/0.7

<u>Input Power = 6.341 KW</u>

Mekhanik [1.2K]

def calculate_pay(total_worked_hours, rate_per_hour):

if total_hours_worked > 40:

# anything over 40 hours earns the overtime rate

overtimeRate = 2 * rate _per_hour

return (40 * rate_per_hour) + ((total_worked_hours - 40) * overtimeRate

else:

# if you didn't work over 40 hours, there is no overtime

overtime = 0

return total_worked_hours * rate_per_hour

Explanation:

First we create the calculate_pay function which will takes 2 parameters.

Secondly ,inside the function we check if the total_worked_hours is greater than 40 and then return the pay by calculating with the help of formula for work over 40 hours.
If the total work hour is less than 40 then we return the pay by multiplying the total_worked_hours with rate_per_hour.
