<h3><u>The distance between the two stations is</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u> km</u></h3>

$\\$

Explanation:

<h2>Given:</h2>

$a_1 \:=\:0.4\:m/s²$

$t_1 \:=\:60\:s$

$v_{i1} \:=\:0\:m/s$

$a_2 \:=\:0\:m/s²$

$t_2 \:=\:25\:min\:=\:1500\:s$

$a_3 \:=\:-0.8\:m/s²$

$v_{f3} \:=\:0\:m/s$

$\\$

<h2>Required:</h2>

Distance from Station A to Station B

$\\$

<h2>Equation:</h2>

$a\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:v_i}{t}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{v_i\:+\:v_f}{2}$

$v\:=\:\frac{d}{t}$

$\\$

<h2>Solution:</h2><h3>Distance when a = 0.4 m/s²</h3>

Solve for $v_{f1}$

$a\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:v_i}{t}$

$0.4\:m/s²\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:0\:m/s}{60\:s}$

$24\:m/s\:=\:v_f\:-\:0\:m/s$

$v_f\:=\:24\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $v_{ave1}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{v_i\:+\:v_f}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{0\:m/s\:+\:24\:m/s}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:12\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $d_1$

$v\:=\:\frac{d}{t}$

$12\:m/s\:=\:\frac{d}{60\:s}$

$720\:m\:=\:d$

$d_1\:=\:720\:m$

$\\$

<h3>Distance when a = 0 m/s²</h3>

$v_{f1}\:=\:v_{i2}$

$v_{i2}\:=\:24\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $v_{f2}$

$a\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:v_i}{t}$

$0\:m/s²\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:24\:m/s}{1500\:s}$

$0\:=\:v_f\:-\:24\:m/s$

$v_f\:=\:24\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $v_{ave2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{v_i\:+\:v_f}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{24\:m/s\:+\:24\:m/s}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:24\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $d_2$

$v\:=\:\frac{d}{t}$

$24\:m/s\:=\:\frac{d}{1500\:s}$

$36,000\:m\:=\:d$

$d_2\:=\:36,000\:m$

$\\$

<h3>Distance when a = -0.8 m/s²</h3>

$v_{f2}\:=\:v_{i3}$

$v_{i3}\:=\:24\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $v_{f3}$

$a\:=\:\frac{v_f\:-\:v_i}{t}$

$-0.8\:m/s²\:=\:\frac{0\:-\:24\:m/s}{t}$

$(t)(-0.8\:m/s²)\:=\:-24\:m/s$

$t\:=\:\frac{-24\:m/s}{-0.8\:m/s²}$

$t\:=\:30\:s$

$\\$

Solve for $v_{ave3}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{v_i\:+\:v_f}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:\frac{24\:m/s\:+\:0\:m/s}{2}$

$v_{ave}\:=\:12\:m/s$

$\\$

Solve for $d_3$

$v\:=\:\frac{d}{t}$

$12\:m/s\:=\:\frac{d}{30\:s}$

$360\:m\:=\:d$

$d_3\:=\:360\:m$

$\\$

<h3>Total Distance from Station A to Station B</h3>

$d\:= \:d_1\:+\:d_2\:+\:d_3$

$d\:= \:720\:m\:+\:36,000\:m\:+\:360\:m$

$d\:= \:37,080\:m$

$d\:= \:37.08\:km$

$\\$

<h2>Final Answer:</h2><h3><u>The distance between the two stations is </u><u>3</u><u>7</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u> km</u></h3>

A duo-servo break makes use of mechanical arrangements to multiply the braking force

The technician that gives the correct procedure of reassembly of duo-servo brake is Tech B, therefore;

Tech B only is correct

The process by which the above answer is arrived at

To reassemble a duo-servo brake, the first step is to reassemble on the brake shoe and parking brake cable, the parking brake lever. The star wheel assembly is then reassembled, and set aside after lubricating the floating end. The pads on the backing plate are lubricated and both brake shoes are then installed on the backing plate

Therefore, Tech A states that the brake shoes on the backing plate are reassembled first is not correct, while Tech B is correct

Answer:

$q=4.013\:\:kW\\\\T_1=278.91\:\:^{\circ}C\\\\T_2=275.82\:\:^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

$R_{conv,1}=(h_1\pi D_1L)^{-1}=(50*0.25*2)^{-1}=0.01273\:\:K/W\\\\R_{conv,2}=(h^2*4wL)^{-1}=(4*4*1)^{-1}=0.0625\:\:K/W\\\\R_{cond(2D)}=(Sk)^{-1}=(8.59*150)^{-1}=0.00078\:\:K/W$

So, heat rate can be calculated as follows:

$q=\frac{T_{\infty,1}-T_{\infty,2}}{R_{conv,1}+R_{conv,2}+R_{cond(2D)}} =\frac{330-25}{0.076} =4.013\:\:kW$

Surface temperatures can be calculated as follows:

$T_1=T_{\infty,1}-qR_{conv,1}=330-51.09=278.91\:\:^{\circ}C\\\\T_2=T_{\infty,2}+qR_{conv,2}=25+250.82=275.82\:\:^{\circ}C$

What steps would you take to design an improved toothpaste container?

algol [13]

Answer:

A. Identify the need, recognize limitations of current toothpaste containers, and then brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing

Explanation:

To design an improved toothpaste container, we must identify the needs of the customer, one of the major need is to make the container attractive to the sight. This is the first thing that will prompt a customer to wanting to buy the product (The reflectance/appearance).

Then recognize the limitation of the current design, what needed change. This will help in determining what is needed to be included and what should be removed based on identified customers need.

The last step is to brainstorm ideas on how to improve the existing designs. Get ideas from other colleagues because there is a saying that two heads are better than one. This will help in coming to a reasonable conclusion on the new design after taking careful consideration of people's opinion.
