Your family has asked you to estimate the operating costs of your clothes dryer for the year. The clothes dryer in your home has

a power rating of 2250 W. To dry one typical load of clothes the dryer will run for approximately 45 minutes. In Ontario, the cost of electricity is $0.11/kWh. Calculate the costs to run the dryer for your family for one year.

Answer:

The costs to run the dryer for one year are $ 9.03.

Explanation:

Given that the clothes dryer in my home has a power rating of 2250 Watts, and to dry one typical load of clothes the dryer will run for approximately 45 minutes, and in Ontario, the cost of electricity is $ 0.11 / kWh, to calculate the costs to run the dryer for one year the following calculation must be performed:

1 watt = 0.001 kilowatt

2250/45 = 50 watts per minute

45 x 365 = 16,425 / 60 = 273.75 hours of consumption

50 x 60 = 300 watt = 0.3 kw / h

0.3 x 273.75 = 82.125

82.125 x 0.11 = 9.03

Therefore, the costs to run the dryer for one year are $ 9.03.

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 tM = 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

Discuss three objectives of Tariff and elaborate on three characteristics of it
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Three objectives of a tariff are

1) To control trade between countries

2) To protect domestic industries

3) To provide a source of income

Three characteristics of a tariff are;

1) Adequate return

2) Attractive

3) Fairness

Explanation:

A tariff is an import or export tax placed on goods traded between countries, it serves to control the foreign trade between the two countries and to protect or develop local industry

A Tariff is an important source of income to countries

Three characteristics of a tariff are;

1) Adequate return

Proper return from the consumer should be factored in a tariff to account for the alternatives or normal expense pattern

2) Attractive

The tariff should be attractive to encourage consumption of electricity or complimentary goods

3) Fairness

Based on the consumption of related resources brought about by large scale utilization, large consumer tariff should be lower than those that consume less complementary resources.

A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor ack
Elza [17]

Answer:

D) AND gate.

Explanation:

Given that:

A certain printer requires that all of the following conditions be satisfied before it will send a HIGH to la microprocessor acknowledging that it is ready to print

These conditions are:

1. The printer's electronic circuits must be energized.

2. Paper must be loaded and ready to advance.

3. The printer must be "on line" with the microprocessor.

Now; if these conditions are met  the logic gate produces a HIGH output indicating readiness to print.

The objective here is to determine the basic logic gate used in this circuit.

Now;

For NOR gate;

NOR gate gives HIGH only when all the inputs are low. but the question states it that "a HIGH is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate". This already falsify NOR gate to be the right answer.

For NOT gate.

NOT gate operates with only one input and one output device but here; we are dealing with 3-input logic gate.

Similarly, OR gate gives output as a high if any one of the input signals is high but we need "a HIGH that is generated and applied to a 3-input logic gate".

Finally, AND gate output is HIGH only when all the input signal is HIGH and vice versa, i.e AND gate output is LOW only when all the input signal is LOW. So AND gate satisfies the given criteria that; all the three conditions must be true for the final signal to be HIGH.
