Answer: speed up food processing

speed up plant growth

Increase fuel efficiency

Explanation:

A catalyst simply refers to a substance that leads to an increase in the reaction rate when it's added to a substance. When the activation energy is reduced by catalysts, this.hwlpa on the speeding up of a reaction.

Therefore,the functions of catalysts include speed up food processing, speeding up plant growth and increase fuel efficiency

Answer:

Outside temperature =88.03°C

Explanation:

Conductivity of air-soil from standard table

K=0.60 W/m-k

To find temperature we need to balance energy

Heat generation=Heat dissipation

Now find the value

We know that for sphere

$q=\dfrac{2\pi DK}{1-\dfrac{D}{4H}}(T_1-T_2)$

Given that q=500 W

$500=\dfrac{2\pi 2\times .6}{1-\dfrac{2}{4\times 10}}(T_1-25)$

By solving that equation we get

$T_2$ =88.03°C

So outside temperature =88.03°C

Calculate the volume of a hydraulic accumulator capable of delivering 5 liters of oil between 180 and 80 bar, using as a preload

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1) $V_o = 10 liters$

2) $V_o = 12.26 liters$

Explanation:

For isothermal process n =1

$V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{(\frac{p_o}{p_1})^{1/n} -(\frac{p_o}{p_2})^{1/n}}$

$V_o = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1}}$

$V_o = 10 liters$

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

$\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25$

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.03

$actual \ volume = c1\times 10 = 10.3 liters$

b) for adiabatic process

n =1.4

volume of hydraulic accumulator is given as

$V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{[\frac{p_o}{p_1}]^{1/n} -[\frac{p_o}{p_2}]^{1/n}}$

$V_o = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1.4} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1.4}}$

$V_o = 12.26 liters$

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

$\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25$

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.15

$actual \volume = c1\times 10 = 11.5 liters$

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.
