Explanation:

Probiotics are a combination of live beneficial bacteria and/or yeasts that naturally live in your body. Bacteria is usually viewed in a negative light as something that makes you sick. However, you have two kinds of bacteria constantly in and on your body — good bacteria and bad bacteria.

Using a harmless strain of E. coli that colonizes the liver, the researchers programmed the bacteria to produce a luminescent signal that can be detected with a simple urine test.

A flywheel made of Grade 30 cast iron (UTS = 217 MPa, UCS = 763 MPa, E = 100 GPa, density = 7100 Kg/m, Poisson's ratio = 0.26) h

hram777 [196]

Answer:

N = 38546.82 rpm

Explanation:

$D_{1}$ = 150 mm

$A_{1}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}$

= 17671.45 $mm^{2}$

$D_{2}$ = 250 mm

$A_{2}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}$

= 49087.78 $mm^{2}$

The centrifugal force acting on the flywheel is fiven by

F = M ( $R_{2}$ - $R_{1}$ ) x $w^{2}$ ------------(1)

Here F = ( -UTS x $A_{1}$ + UCS x $A_{2}$ )

Since density, $\rho = \frac{M}{V}$

$\rho = \frac{M}{A\times t}$

$M = \rho \times A\times t$ $M = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( D_{2}^{2}-D_{1}^{2} \right )\times t$

$M = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( 250^{2}-150^{2} \right )\times 37$

$M = 8252963901$

∴ $R_{2}$ - $R_{1}$ = 50 mm

∴ F = $763\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}-217\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}$

F = 33618968.38 N --------(2)

Now comparing (1) and (2)

$33618968.38 = 8252963901\times 50\times \omega ^{2}$

∴ ω = 4036.61

We know

$\omega = \frac{2\pi N}{60}$

$4036.61 = \frac{2\pi N}{60}$

∴ N = 38546.82 rpm

1. Design a circuit, utilizing set/reset coils where PB 1 starts Motor 1 and PB2 stops Motor 1. Pressing and releasing either pu

lianna [129]

Answer:

Circuit attached with explanation

Explanation:

Hi Dear,

A circuit is attached for your reference.

When you press "start" PB, the supply reaches the motor starter relay coil "M" that is also in parallel with the "start" PB which allows the motor to remain ON even when you release "start" PB as supply to relay coil is directly from supply "L" through "M".

To stop motor just press "stop" PB and the circuit breaks which de-energize the relay coil and the motor stops.

Hope this finds easy to you.

1. A team of students have designed a battery-powered cooler, which promises to keep beverages at a high-drinkability temperatur

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Minimum electrical power required = 3.784 Watts

Minimum battery size needed = 3.03 Amp-hr

Explanation:

Temperature of the beverages, $T_L = 36^0 F = 275.372 K$

Outside temperature, $T_H = 100^0F = 310.928 K$

rate of insulation, $Q = 100 Btu/h$

To get the minimum electrical power required, use the relation below:

$\frac{T_L}{T_H - T_L} = \frac{Q}{W} \\W = \frac{Q(T_H - T_L)}{T_L}\\W = \frac{100(310.928 - 275.372)}{275.372}\\W = 12.91 Btu/h\\1 Btu/h = 0.293071 W\\W = 12.91 * 0.293071\\W_{min} = 3.784 Watt$
