Answer: Let us use the pickled file - DeckOfCardsList.dat.

Explanation: So that our possible outcome becomes

7♥, A♦, Q♠, 4♣, 8♠, 8♥, K♠, 2♦, 10♦, 9♦, K♥, Q♦, Q♣

HPC (High Point Count) = 16

A boy weighing 108-lb starts from rest at the bottom A of a 6-percent incline and increases his speed at a constant rate to 7 mi
baherus [9]

Answer:

88.18 W

Explanation:

The weight of the boy is given as 108 lb

Change to kg =108*0.453592= 48.988 kg = 49 kg

The slope is given as 6% , change it to degrees as

6/100 =0.06

tan⁻(0.06)= 3.43°

The boy is travelling at a constant speed up the slope = 7mi/hr

Change 7 mi/h to m/s

7*0.44704 =3.13 m/s

Formula for power P=F*v where

P=power output

F=force

v=velocity

Finding force

F=m*g*sin 3.43°

F=49*9.81*sin 3.43° =28.17

Finding the power out

P=28.17*3.13 =88.18 W

Which explanation best identifies why the company in the following scenario has decided against investing in solar energy?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The company found the cost of the required photovoltaic cells too expensive.

Explanation:

Solar energy can be used as an alternative source of supply for fuel. Solar energy is a renewable source of energy, that is it keeps on replenishing every day. Also solar energy does not require a lot of maintenance.

The cost required is starting a solar system is very high because one needs to buy solar panel, photovoltaic cells for batteries, inverters and so on.

From the question, the company decided against solar energy for the time being. This means that probably in the future they might consider it. Therefore it is as a result of the economic situation of the company that they have not set up a solar system because the cost of the required photovoltaic cells too expensive.

The cars of a roller-coaster ride have a speed of 19.0 km/h as they pass over the top of the circular track. Neglect any frictio
Dmitrij [34]

Complete Question

The cars of a roller-coaster ride have a speed of 19.0 km/h as they pass over the top of the circular track. Neglect any friction and calculate their speed v when they reach the horizontal bottom position. At the top position, the radius of the circular path of their mass centers is 21 m, and all six cars have the same mass.V = -18 m What is v?X km/h

Answer:

v=23.6m/s

Explanation:

Velocity v_c=18.0km/h

Radius r=21m

initial velocity uu=19=>5.27778

Generally the equation for Angle is mathematically given by

\theta=\frac{v_c}{2r}

\theta=\frac{18}{2*21}

\theta=0.45

\theta=25.7831 \textdegree

Generally

Height of mass

h=\frac{rsin\theta}{\theta}

h=\frac{21sin25.78}{0.45}

h=20.3m

Generally the equation for Work Energy is mathematically given by

0.5mv_0^2+mgh=0.5mv^2

Therefore

v=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}

v=\sqrt{=5.27778^2+2*9.81*20.3}

v=23.6m/s

A water pump delivers 3 hp of shaft power when operating. If the pressure differential between the outlet and the inlet of the p
Natali [406]

Answer:

Mechanical Efficiency =  83.51%

Explanation:

Given Data:

Pressure difference = ΔP=1.2 Psi

Flow rate = V=8ft^3/s\\

Power of Pump = 3 hp

Required:

Mechanical Efficiency

Solution:

We will first bring the change the units of given data into SI units.

P=1.2*6.895 = 8.274KPa\\V=8*0.00283=0.226 m^3/s\\P=3*0.746=2.238KW

Now we will find the change in energy.

Since it is mentioned in the statement that change in elevation (potential energy) and change in velocity (Kinetic Energy) are negligible.

Thus change in energy is

=(Mass * change in P)/density\\= \frac{M*P}{p}\\\\

As we know that Mass = Volume x density

substituting the value

Energy = Volume * density x ΔP / density

Change in energy = Volumetric flow x ΔP

Change in energy = 0.226 x 8.274 = 1.869 KW

Now mechanical efficiency = change in energy / work done by shaft

Efficiency = 1.869 / 2.238

Efficiency = 0.8351 = 83.51%
