Answer:

The density of the copper is higher than aluminium. Hence it is heavier compared to aluminium conductors it requires strong structures and hardware to bear the weight. More ductile and has high tensile strength.

...

Aluminium & Copper properties.

Property Copper (Cu) Aluminium (Al)

Density (g/cm3) 8.96 2.70

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The loop invariant has to satisfy some amount of requirements to be of good use. Another complex factor as to why a loop is the question of loop termination. A loop that doesn’t terminate can’t invariably be correct, and in fact the computation in whatever form amounts to nothing. The total axiomatic description of a while construct will have to involve all of the following to be true, in which I is the loop invariant:

P => I

{I and B} S {I}

(I and (not B)) => Q

Then the loop terminates

Why is the reflection step in the engineering process the most important step?

Monica [59]

Reflection helps designers to learn from their experiences, to integrate and co-ordinate different aspects of a design situation, to judge the progress of the design process, to evaluate interactions with the design context, and to plan suitable future design activities.

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.

A lake has a carrying capacity of 10,000 fish. At the current level of fishing, 2,000 fish per year are taken with the catch uni

arlik [135]

Answer:

The population size would be $p' = 5000$

The yield would be $MaxYield = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year$

Explanation:

So in this problem we are going to be examining the application of a population dynamics a fishing pond and stock fishing and objective would be to obtain the maximum sustainable yield and and the population of the fish at the obtained maximum sustainable yield, so basically we would be applying an engineering solution to fishing

So the current yield which is mathematically represented as

$\frac{dN}{dt} = \frac{2000}{1 \ year }$

Where dN is the change in the number of fish

and dt is the change in time

So in order to obtain the solution we need to obtain the rate of growth

For this we would be making use of the growth rate equation which is

$r = \frac{[\frac{dN}{dt}] }{N[1-\frac{N}{K} ]}$

Where N is the population of the fish which is given as 4,000 fishes

and K is the carrying capacity which is given as 10,000 fishes

r is the growth rate

Substituting these values into the equation

$r = \frac{[\frac{2000}{year}] }{4000[1-\frac{4000}{10,000} ]} =0.833$

The maximum sustainable yield would be dependent on the growth rate an the carrying capacity and this mathematically represented as

$Max Yield = \frac{rK}{4} = \frac{(10,000)(0.833)}{4} = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year$

So since the maximum sustainable yield is 2082 then the the population need to be higher than 4,000 so in order to ensure a that this maximum yield the population size denoted by $p'$ would be

$p' = \frac{K}{2} = \frac{10,000}{2} = 5000\ fishes$
