What does this middle button on the middle of my Chevrolet equinox steering wheel mean?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Depending on how new your vehicle is, to me it looks like some sort of turn on button for forward collision safety feature, but i'm not an expert with this particular vehicle. If you want a better answer, I strongly suggest looking at the owner's manual under which should be located in the front dash compartment on the passengers side. Once you have the manual, look in the appendix until you find controls (or something similar) then go to that page and read about your vehicles control buttons. Your answer should be in the manual.

Something that all automobile owners should do right after purchasing a new vehicle, is reading the owners manual. As boring as it may seem, reading the owner's manual will help you get used to your new car quicker and give you instructions on how to take care of your car so that it lasts.

Have a great day, and I wish you safe traveling for now and forever! :)

Briefly discuss if it would be better to operate with pumps in parallel or series and how your answer would change as the steepn
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

1) In series, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) In parallel, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

Explanation:

1) Pump in series:

When two or more pumps are connected in series, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective heads at the same flow rate as shown in the first diagram attached.

In the first diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3.

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the head of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the head of a single pump flowing at the same rate.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

Now, since the flowrate is constant, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) Pump in parallel:

When two or more pumps are connected in parallel, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective flow rates at same head as shown in the second diagram attached.

In the second diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the flow rate of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the flow rate of a single pump.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

In this case, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

A. A 3-kg plastic tank that has a volume of 0.2 m^3 is lled with liquid water. Assuming the density of water is 1000 kg=m^3, det
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) The weight of the combined system is the sum of the weight of the water and the weight of the tank

m_{water}=V_{tank}.\rho_{wtaer}\\\\m_{water}=0.2m^3*1000kg/m^3\\\\m_{water}=200 \ kg\\\\m_{total} = m_{water}+m_{tank}\\\\But\ m_{tank}=3kg,therefore:\\\\m_{total} =200kg+3kg\\\\m_{total} =203\ kg\\\\weight_{total}=m_{total}g\\\\weight_{total}=203kg*9.81m/s^2\\\\weight_{total}=1991.43\ N

b) Since the weight of a system can be divided into smaller portions, hence weight is an extensive property.

c) When analyzing the acceleration of gases as they flow through a nozzle, the geometry of the nozzle which is an open system can be chosen as our system.

d) Given that:

\rho_{water}=1000kg/m^3\\\\1kg/m^3=0.062428lb/ft^3\\\\1000kg/m^3=1000kg/m^3*\frac{0.062428lb/ft^3}{kg/m^3}=62.43lb/ft^3\\ \\\rho=SG*\rho_{water}=1.03*62.43=64.272lb/ft^3\\\\P=P_{atm}+\rho g H\\\\P=14.7\ psia+64.272\ lb/ft^3*32.2\ ft/s^2*175\ ft*\frac{1\ ft^2}{12^2\ in^2}*\frac{1\ lbf}{32.2\ lbm.ft/s^2}  \\\\P=92.8\ psia

g If the rails are originally laid in contact, what is the stress in them on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0
Anettt [7]

A) The amount of space must be left between adjacent rails if they are just to touch on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C is; 0.6048 cm

B) The stress in the rails on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C is; 86.4 × 10⁶ Pa

<h3>Linear Thermal Expansion</h3>

We are given;

Length; L = 14 m

Initial Temperature; T_i = −5 °C

Final Temperature; T_f = 31 °C

The formula for Linear Thermal Expansion is;

ΔL = L_i * α * ΔT

where;

L_i is initial length

α is thermal expansion

ΔL is change in length

ΔT is change in temperature

Now, the thermal expansion of steel from online tables is α = 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ C⁻¹

Thus;

ΔL = 14 * 1.2 × 10⁻⁵  * (31 - (-5))

ΔL = 6.048 × 10⁻³ m = 0.6048 cm

The formula to get the stress is;

σ = Y * α  * ΔT

where;

Y is young's modulus of steel = 20 × 10¹⁰ Pa

α is thermal expansion

ΔT is change in temperature

Thus;

σ = 20 × 10¹⁰ × 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ × (31 - (-5))

σ = 86.4 × 10⁶ Pa

The complete question is;

Steel train rails are laid in 14.0-m long segments placed end to end. The rails are laid on a winter day when their temperature is −5 °C.

(a) How much space must be left between adjacent rails if they are just to touch on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C?

(b) If the rails are originally laid in contact, what is the stress in them on a summer day when their temperature is 31.0 °C?

Consider this example of a recurrence relation. A police officer needs to patrol a gated community. He would like to enter the g
SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.
