Answer:

250.7mw

Explanation:

Volume of the reservoir = lwh

Length of reservoir = 10km

Width of reservoir = 1km

Height = 100m

Volume = 10x10³x10³x100

= 10⁹m³

Next we find the volume flow rate

= 0.1/100x10⁹x1/3600

= 277.78m³/s

To get the electrical power output developed by the turbine with 92 percent efficiency

= 0.92x1000x9.81x277.78x100

= 250.7MW

A lake has a carrying capacity of 10,000 fish. At the current level of fishing, 2,000 fish per year are taken with the catch uni
arlik [135]

Answer:

The population size would be p' = 5000

The yield would be    MaxYield = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year

Explanation:

So in this problem we are going to be examining the application of a  population dynamics a fishing pond and stock fishing and objective would be to obtain the maximum sustainable yield and and the population of the fish at the obtained maximum sustainable yield,  so basically we would be applying an engineering solution to fishing

 

    So the current  yield which is mathematically represented as

                               \frac{dN}{dt} =   \frac{2000}{1 \ year }

 Where dN is the change in the number of fish

            and dt is the change in time

So in order to obtain the solution we need to obtain the  rate of growth

    For this we would be making use of the growth rate equation which is

                                      r = \frac{[\frac{dN}{dt}] }{N[1-\frac{N}{K} ]}

  Where N is the population of the fish which is given as 4,000 fishes

          and  K is the carrying capacity which is given as 10,000 fishes

             r is the growth rate

        Substituting these values into the equation

                              r = \frac{[\frac{2000}{year}] }{4000[1-\frac{4000}{10,000} ]}  =0.833

The maximum sustainable yield would be dependent on the growth rate an the carrying capacity and this mathematically represented as

                      Max Yield  = \frac{rK}{4} = \frac{(10,000)(0.833)}{4} = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year

So since the maximum sustainable yield is 2082 then the the population need to be higher than 4,000 so in order to ensure a that this maximum yield the population size denoted by p' would be

                          p' = \frac{K}{2}  = \frac{10,000}{2}  = 5000\ fishes

4. The instant the ignition switch is turned to the start position,
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

D. Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized.

Explanation:

The instant the ignition switch is turned to the start position, "Both pull-in and hold-in windings are energized." This is because the moment the ignition switch is turned to the start position, voltage passes through to the S terminal of the solenoid.

The hold-in winding is attached to the case of the solenoid. Similarly, the pull-in winding is also attached to the starter motor. Thereby, the current will move across both windings by getting energized to generate a strong magnetic field.

A person holds her hand out of an open car window while the car drives through still air at 65 mph. Under standard atmospheric c
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

10.8\ \text{lb/ft^2}

101.96\ \text{lb/ft}^2

Explanation:

v_1 = Velocity of car = 65 mph = 65\times \dfrac{5280}{3600}=95.33\ \text{ft/s}

\rho = Density of air = 0.00237\ \text{slug/ft}^3

v_2=0

P_1=0

h_1=h_2

From Bernoulli's law we have

P_1+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2+h_1=P_2+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2+h_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00237\times 95.33^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=10.8\ \text{lb/ft^2}

The maximum pressure on the girl's hand is 10.8\ \text{lb/ft^2}

Now v_1 = 200 mph = 200\times \dfrac{5280}{3600}=293.33\ \text{ft/s}

P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00237\times 293.33^2\\\Rightarrow P_2=101.96\ \text{lb/ft}^2

The maximum pressure on the girl's hand is 101.96\ \text{lb/ft}^2
