Answer:

Improved/ advanced types of Actuators include servo systems, create a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion.

Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

Explanation:

An actuator control system is referred to as any electronic, electrical, or electromechanical system often used to activate an actuator, control the direction as well as extent and duration of its output. Actuator control systems could take the form of extremely simple, manually-operated, start-and-stop stations, either sophisticated or programmable computer systems. The more improved/ advanced types include servo systems that produce a large range of actuator motion in response to the changing needs of the operational environment or process. This type of actuator control system uses an interface arrangement that assimilates feedback from the process or mechanism and adjusts the actuator in the right way. Most actuator systems will include at least a set of travel limits that prevent the actuator destroying itself or the secondary mechanism.

Actuators are local or automated suppliers of working motion. They are used to changes, adjust, or move a secondary mechanism, where a physical operator cannot intervene directly. They are denoted by a large range of varying types using electrical and electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic power sources to create linear or rotary outputs. One element they all have in common is the actuator control system used to start, stop, and adjust the range, speed, and duration of the working motion.

Actuators can produce a linear motion, rotary motion or oscillatory motion which means they can create motion in one direction, in a circular motion or in opposite directions at regular intervals. Hydraulic and air cylinders can be classified as single-acting cylinders, meaning that the energy source result in movement in one direction and a spring is used for the other direction.

A block of ice weighing 20 lb is taken from the freezer where it was stored at -15"F. How many Btu of heat will be required to c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Heat required =7126.58 Btu.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m=20 lb

We know that

1 lb =0.45 kg

So 20 lb=9 kg

m=9 kg

Ice at -15° F and we have to covert it at 200° F.

First ice will take sensible heat at up to 32 F then it will take latent heat at constant temperature and temperature will remain 32 F.After that it will convert in water and water will take sensible heat and reach at 200 F.

We know that

Specific heat for ice C_p=2.03\ KJ/kg.K

Latent heat for ice H=336 KJ/kg

Specific heat for ice C_p=4.187\ KJ/kg.K

We know that sensible heat given as

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Heat for -15F to 32 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 2.03(32+15) KJ

Q=858.69 KJ

Heat for 32 Fto 200 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 4.187(200-32) KJ

Q=6330.74 KJ

Total heat=858.69 + 336 +6330.74 KJ

Total heat=7525.43 KJ

We know that 1 KJ=0.947 Btu

So   7525.43 KJ=7126.58 Btu

So heat required to covert ice into water is 7126.58 Btu.

Each cout statement has a syntax error. Type the first cout statement, and press Run to observe the error message. Fix the error
saul85 [17]

Answer:

1. cout << "Num: " << songNum << endl;

2. cout << songNum << endl;

3. cout << songNum <<" songs" << endl;

Explanation:

//Full Code

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main ()

{

int songNum;

songNum = 5;

cout << "Num: " << songNum << endl;

cout << songNum << endl;

cout << songNum <<" songs" << endl;

return 0;

}

1. The error in the first cout statement is that variable songnum is not declared.

C++ is a case sensitive programme language; it treats upper case and lower case characters differently.

Variable songNum was declared; not songnum.

2. Cout us used to print a Variable that has already been declared.

The error arises in int songNum in the second cout statement.

3. When printing more than one variables or values, they must be separated with <<
