Answer:

Canopy

Explanation:

The canopy of a tree is sometimes also called its “crown.” This part of the tree is the uppermost part, made up of branches, stems, and leaves for a deciduous tree. ... For evergreen trees, the canopy would include the branches, stems, and needles.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average time required = 60 seconds

Therefore,

The maximum capacity that can be accommodated on the system, μ = 60 veh/hr

Average Arrival rate, λ = 30 vehicles per hour

Now,

The average time spent by the vehicle is given as

⇒ $\frac{1}{\mu(1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu})}$

thus,

on substituting the respective values, we get

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-\frac{30}{60})}$

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(1-0.5)}$

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{60(0.5)}$

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}$ hr/veh

Average time spent by the vehicle = $\frac{1}{30}\times60$ min/veh

[ 1 hour = 60 minutes]

thus,

Average time spent by the vehicle = 2 min/veh

Hence,

Option (d) 2 min/veh

I am standing on the upper deck of the football stadium. I have an egg in my hand. I am going to drop it and you are going to tr

Alina [70]

Answer:

Δx = 25 ft.

Explanation:

Assuming that the person on the ground starts running at the same time as the egg is dropped, we have two simultaneous trajectories:

1 ) Egg falling:

If the egg is dropped, and we neglect the air resistance, we can use the kinematic equation that relates the distance and fall time, as follows:

yf-y₀ = 1/2* g* t²

If we take the up direction as positive, we can solve for t as follows:

0-100 ft = 1/2* (-32.15 ft/s²)* t²

⇒ t = $\sqrt{(100*2)/32.15}$ = 2.5 sec.

2) Person on the ground running away:

In order to be able to run away, and then return to catch the egg, running at constant speed, he must run during exactly the half of the time that the egg is falling, i.e., 1.25 sec.

We can get the distance at which he can reach, applying the definition of velocity:

v = (xf-x₀) / (tfi-t₀)

If we choose t₀=0 and x₀ = 0 , we can solve for xf, as follows:

xf = v*t = 20 ft/sec*1.25 sec = 25 ft.

What is the definition of a duty cycle?

ira [324]

Answer:

$D=\frac{PW}{T}*100$

Explanation:

In electrical terms, is the ratio of time in which a load or circuit is ON compared to the time in which the load or circuit is OFF.

The duty cycle or power cycle, is expressed as a percentage of the activation time. For example, a 70% duty cycle is a signal that 70% of the time is activated and the other 30% disabled. Its equation can be expressed as:

$D=\frac{PW}{T}*100$

Where:

$D=Duty\hspace{3}Cycle$

$PW=Pulse\hspace{3}Active\hspace{3}Time$

$T=Period\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}Signal$

Here is a picture that will help you understand these concepts.
