Answer:

In the absence of dark energy, a flat universe expands forever but at a continually decelerating rate, with expansion asymptotically approaching zero; with dark energy, the expansion rate of the universe initially slows down, due to the effects of gravity, but eventually increases, and the ultimate fate of the universe ...

Explanation:

I think it goes on forever.

I would say nothing, time is endless and the cycle of life is endless, not only on earth but almost anywhere, people try to find answers like what’s at the bottom of the ocean and stuff like that but there’s no point in finding out because it has no benefit, life is made for different reasons so there’s not one answer to it

What are the three most common types of relearn procedures?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The three types of relearn procedures are auto relearn, stationary and OBD.

Explanation:

In TPMS system, after the direct service like adjustment of air pressure, tire rotation or replacement of sensors etc, is performed then maximum vehicle often needs TPMS system relearn that needs to be performed.

For performing these relearn procedure, there are mainly three types:

auto relearn
stationary relearn
OBD

After applying the relearn process, the TPMS system will again be in proper function.

Which is not one of the primary characteristic of unit testing:

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Unit testing is a software development process in which the smallest testable parts of an application, called units, are individually and independently scrutinized for proper operation. This testing methodology is done during the development process by the software developers and sometimes QA staff. The main objective of unit testing is to isolate written code to test and determine if it works as intended.

Unit testing is an important step in the development process, because if done correctly, it can help detect early flaws in code which may be more difficult to find in later testing stages.

Unit testing is a component of test-driven development (TDD), a pragmatic methodology that takes a meticulous approach to building a product by means of continual testing and revision. This testing method is also the first level of software testing, which is performed before other testing methods such as integration testing. Unit tests are typically isolated to ensure a unit does not rely on any external code or functions. Testing can be done manually but is often automated. It might be helpful

As a global society with many political demarcations, what is the best way to preserve resources that are held in common? What s

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

kindly check the explanation section.

Explanation:

In order to be able to preserve resources that are common there is need for each countries in the world to agree and cooperate. Also, policies should be set and made the standard for all countries involved. The developed countries should come together with developing measures to make sure that there is mutual agreements between these countries to preserve common resources. For instance, the most common resource is the Ozone layer, the industrialization in developed countries causes the depletion of ozone.

The main problem that the kind of preservation entails is how to get money for countries that are not rich enough to follow the agreed laydown rules. Other problems are: differences in economies and each countries have their own ways of regulating and preserving resources.

An ideal Rankine cycle operates with turbine inlet steam at 90 bar and 500°C, and a condenser at 40 °C. Calculate the efficiency

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

40.8%

Explanation:

A rankine cycle is a generation cycle using water as a working fluid, when heat enters the boiler the water undergoes a series of changes in state and energy until generating power through the turbine.

This cycle is composed of four main components, the boiler, the pump, the turbine and the condenser as shown in the attached image

To solve any problem regarding the rankine cycle, enthalpies in all states must be calculated using the thermodynamic tables and taking into account the following.

• The pressure of state 1 and 4 are equal

• The pressure of state 2 and 3 are equal

• State 1 is superheated steam

• State 2 is in saturation state

• State 3 is saturated liquid at the lowest pressure

• State 4 is equal to state 3 because the work of the pump is negligible.

Once all enthalpies are found, the following equations are used using the first law of thermodynamics

Wout = m (h1-h2)

Qin = m (h1-h4)

Win = m (h4-h3)

Qout = m (h2-h1)

The efficiency is calculated as the power obtained on the heat that enters

Efficiency = Wout / Qin

Efficiency = (h1-h2) / (h1-h4)

first we calculate the enthalpies in all states

h1=3386kJ/Kg

h2=2073kJ/Kg

h2=h3=167.5kJ/Kg

we use the efficiency ecuation

$Efficiency =\frac{(h1-h2) }{(h1-h4)} =\frac{3386-2073}{3386-167.5} =0.408=40.8%$

A small hot surface at temperature Ti-430K having an emissivity 0.8 dissipates heat by radiation into a surrounding area at T2-4

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

389.6 W/m²

Explanation:

The power radiated to the surroundings by the small hot surface, P = σεA(T₁⁴ - T₂⁴) where σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴, ε = emissivity = 0.8. T₁ = temperature of small hot surface = 430 K and T₂ = temperature of surroundings = 400 K

So, P = σεA(T₁⁴ - T₂⁴)

h = P/A = σε(T₁⁴ - T₂⁴)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴ × 0.8 ((430 K )⁴ - (400 K)⁴)

h = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴ × 0.8 (34188010000 K⁴ - 25600000000 K⁴)

h = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²-K⁴ × 0.8 × 8588010000K⁴

h = 38955213360 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²

h = 389.55213360 W/m²

h ≅ 389.6 W/m²
