Railroad tracks made of 1025 steel are to be laid during the time of year when the temperature averages 4C (40F). Of a joint spa
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

41.5° C

Explanation:

Given data :

1025 steel

Temperature = 4°C

allowed joint space = 5.4 mm

length of rails = 11.9 m

<u>Determine the highest possible temperature </u>

coefficient of thermal expansion ( ∝ ) = 12.1 * 10^-6 /°C

Applying thermal strain ( Δl / l )  = ∝ * ΔT

                                    ( 5.4 * 10^-3 / 11.9 )  = 12.1 * 10^-6 * ( T2 - 4 )

∴  ( T2 - 4 ) =  ( 5.4 * 10^-3 / 11.9 ) / 12.1 * 10^-6

hence : T2 = 41.5°C

Write a method called letterCount that takes two String arguments, one containing some text and the other containing a single le
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

I am writing a Python program.  Here is the function letterCount. This function takes two string arguments text and letter and return count of all occurrences of a letter in the text.

def letterCount(text, letter):  

 count = 0  # to count occurrences of letter in the text string

 for char in text:  # loop moves through each character in the text

   if letter == char: # if given letter matches with the value in char

     count += 1  # keeps counting occurrence of a letter in text

 return count # returns how many times a letter occurred in text

   

Explanation:

In order to see if this function works you can check by calling this function and passing a text and a letter as following:

print(letterCount('apples are tasty','a'))

Output:

3

Now lets see how this function works using the above text and letter values.

text = apples are tasty

letter = a

So the function has to compute the occurrences of 'a' in the given text 'apples are tasty'.

The loop has a variable char that moves through each character given in the text (from a of apples to y of tasty) so it is used as an index variable.

char checks each character of the text string for the occurrence of letter a.

The if condition checks if the char is positioned at a character which matches the given letter i.e. a. If it is true e.g if char is at character a of apple so the if condition evaluates to true.

When the if condition evaluates to true this means one occurrence is found and this count variable counts this occurrence. So count increments every time the occurrence of letter a is found in apples are tasty text.

The loop breaks when every character in text is traversed and finally the count variable returns all of the occurrences of that letter (a) in the given text (apples are tasty). As a occurs 3 times in text so 3 is returned in output.

The screen shot of program along with output is attached.

1. What are the base pairs?
Eduardwww [97]
1. A base pair is a fundamental unit of double-stranded nucleic acids consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds.

2.Proteins

3.DNA is made up of molecules called nucleotides. Each nucleotide contains a phosphate group, a sugar group and a nitrogen base. The four types of nitrogen bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C). The order of these bases is what determines DNA's instructions, or genetic code.

4. any of a group of basic proteins found in chromatin.

A hypereutectoid steel often presents hard and brittle cementite along the grain boundaries of pearlite. Which of the following
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

(d) Spheroidizing

Explanation:

Spheroidizing

 This is the heat treatment process for steel which having carbon percentage more than 0.8 %.As we know that a hard and brittle material is having carbon percentage more than 0.8 %.That is why this process is suitable for the hard materials.

In this process a hard and brittle materials convert into soft and ductile after this it improve the machine ability as well as improve the tool life.

In this process grain become spheroidal and these grains are ductile.
