Answer:

A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a tensile stress on the object.

Explanation:

Tensile stress is referred as a deforming force, in which force acts perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart, attempting to elongate it.

The tensile stress is a type of normal stress, in which a perpendicular force creates the stress to an object’s surface.

Hence, the correct option is "A."

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Define the coefficient of determination and discuss the impact you would expect it to have on your engineering decision-making b
scoundrel [369]

Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

ohaa [14]

Answer:

import pandas pd

def read_prices(tickers):

price_dict = {}

# Read ingthe ticker data for all the tickers

for ticker in tickers:

# Read data for one ticker using pandas.read_csv  

# We assume no column names in csv file

ticker_data = pd.read_csv("./" + ticker + ".csv", names=['date', 'price', 'volume'])

# ticker_data is now a panda data frame

# Creating dictionary

# for the ticker

price_dict[ticker] = {}

for i in range(len(ticker_data)):

# Use pandas.iloc  to access data

date = ticker_data.iloc[i]['date']

price = ticker_data.iloc[i]['price']

price_dict[ticker][date] = price

return price_dict
