You are NASA. Build a space station on Mars that could support humans to live in for an extended period of time.

Design a plan for ""your yard"" (no matter where you live) that will capture and utilize rainwater. You can prepare the plan in

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u><em>General Considerations</em></u>

The design of the yard will affect the natural surface and subsurface drainage pattern of a watershed or individual hillslope. Yard drainage design has as its basic objective the reduction or elimination of energy generated by flowing water. The destructive power of flowing water increases exponentially as its velocity increases. Therefore, water must not be allowed to develop sufficient volume or velocity so as to cause excessive wear along ditches, below culverts, or along exposed running surfaces, cuts, or fills.

A yard drainage system must satisfy two main criteria if it is to be effective throughout its design life:

1. It must allow for a minimum of disturbance of the natural drainage pattern.

2.It must drain surface and subsurface water away from the roadway and dissipate it in a way that prevents excessive collection of water in unstable areas and subsequent downstream erosion

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given below, where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished. Find

Nataly_w [17]

The change in annual cost when Q is increased from 340 to 341 is -1.23 and the instantaneous rate of change when Q = 340 is -1.25

<h3>How to find the Instantaneous rate of change?</h3>

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given as;

C = (1012000/Q) + 7.5Q

where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished.

Now, the change in C can be calculated by evaluating the cost function at Q = 340 and Q = 341

Change in C = [1,012,000/341 + 7.5*341] - [1,012,000/340 + 7.5*340] ≈ -1.23

Instantaneous rate of change in C is first order derivative C':

C'(Q) = -1,012,000/(Q²) + 7.5

C'(340) = -1,012,000/(340²) + 7.5 ≈ -1.25

Write a function named "read_prices" that takes one parameter that is a list of ticker symbols that your company owns in their p

ohaa [14]

Answer:

import pandas pd

def read_prices(tickers):

price_dict = {}

# Read ingthe ticker data for all the tickers

for ticker in tickers:

# Read data for one ticker using pandas.read_csv

# We assume no column names in csv file

ticker_data = pd.read_csv("./" + ticker + ".csv", names=['date', 'price', 'volume'])

# ticker_data is now a panda data frame

# Creating dictionary

# for the ticker

price_dict[ticker] = {}

for i in range(len(ticker_data)):

# Use pandas.iloc to access data

date = ticker_data.iloc[i]['date']

price = ticker_data.iloc[i]['price']

price_dict[ticker][date] = price

return price_dict

A 4-stroke Diesel engine with a displacement of Vd = 2.5x10^-3m^3 produces a mean effective pressure of 6.4 bar at the speed of

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

Explanation:

Given that

$V_d=2.5\times 10^{-3} m^3$

Mean effective pressure = 6.4 bar

Speed = 2000 rpm

We know that power is the work done per second.

So

$P=6.4\times 100\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\times \dfrac{2\pi \times2000}{120}$

We have to notice one point that we divide by 120 instead of 60, because it is a 4 cylinder engine.

P=167.55 KW

So the power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

About ceramics: Only can be optically opaque or semi-transparent. a) True b)-False

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: True

Explanation: Ceramics have the property that when the band gap present between the atoms are larger than the light energy then the tend to become opaque because the light scattering is caused . They also show the property of being translucent when there are chances of the light to get a path through the surface of ceramic so they get the light at some parts e.g.porcelain .Therefore the statement given is true that ceramics can be optically opaque or semi-transparent(translucent).
