Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

29 percent

Explanation:

The transportation sector is the highest contributing factor to greenhouse gas emissions in the world. Vehicles such as cars, motorcycles, airplanes, ships etc all emit these gases which causes global warming.

Electric cars is known not to little or zero direct emission and known to be safer. It however emits nitrogen oxide which is fog like in a very minute quantity.

Determine the number of sheets of plywood needed to lay the subfloor of a building that measures 24' wide and 64' long. what is
skad [1K]

Answer:

  • 48 pieces
  • 1536 ft²

Explanation:

The 24' dimension is 6 times the 4' dimension of a 4×8 ft piece of plywood. The 64' dimension is 8 times the 8' dimension of a 4×8 ft piece of plywood.

Hence, it will take 6×8 = 48 pieces of plywood to cover the floor.

The area of the floor is the product of its dimensions:

  24' × 64' = 1536 ft²

Let S = { p q |p, q are prime numbers greater than 0} and E = {0, −2, 2, −4, 4, −6, 6, · · · } be the set of even integers. . Pr
Finger [1]

Answer:

prove that | S | = | E | ; every element of S there is an Image on E , while not every element on E has an image on S

Explanation:

Given that S = { p q |p, q are prime numbers greater than 0}

                    E = {0, −2, 2, −4, 4, −6, 6, · · · }

To prove  by constructing a bijection from S to E

detailed  solution attached below

After the bijection :

<em>prove that | S | = | E |</em> :  every element of S there is an Image on E , while not every element on E has an image on S

∴ we can say sets E and S are infinite sets

Water flows near a flat surface and some measurements of the water velocity, u, parallel to the surface, at different heights y
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a) since u from equation1 and u from equation2 are not the same ( 1.7825 ft/s ≠ 3.165 ft/s ) then this equation is not valid for any system of units.

b) The velocity according to the equation at y=0 is equal to 0.81 ft/sec but since the fluid is flowing on flat surface which is stationary, this value is wrong hence the equation is NOT CORRECT

Explanation:

Given that;

range ⇒ 0 < y < 0

1ft is given by the equation u = 0.81 + 9.2y + (4.1 × 10³y³)

so u=velocity of water at different layers

y= height of the layer

a)

consider BG system of units

u(ft/s) = 0.81 + 9.2y + (4.1 × 10³y³)

and consider y=0.05 ft

u = 0.81 + 9.2(0.5) + (4.1 × 10³(0.5³)

u = 0.81 + 0.46 + 0.5125

u = 1.7825 ft/s lets say this is equation 1

now consider the SI system units

u(m/s) = 0.81 + 9.2y + (4.1 × 10³y³)

also consider y=0.05ft

1ft = 3.048×10⁻¹ (from conversion table)

so 0.05ft = 0.01524m

we substitute

u(m/s) = 0.81 + 9.2(0.01524m) + (4.1 × 10³(0.01524m)³)

u = 0.81 + 0.1402 + 1.4512×10⁻²

u = 0.9647 m/s

1m/s = 3.281 ft per seconds ( conversion table)

so

0.9647 m/s = 0.9647(3.281)

u = 3.165 ft/s lets say this is equation 2

now since u from equation1 and u from equation2 are not the same ( 1.7825 ft/s ≠ 3.165 ft/s ) then this equation is not valid for any system of units.

b)

we know that the velocity of water at the surface contact is zero

u=0

so from the equation

u = 0.81 + 9.2y + (4.1 × 10³y³)

at y = 0

u = 0.81 + 9.2(0) + (4.1 × 10³(0)³)

u = 0.81 ft/s

The velocity according to the above equation at y=0 is 0.81 ft/sec but since the fluid is flowing on flat surface which is stationary this value is wrong hence the equation is NOT CORRECT

A photovoltaic panel of dimension 2m×4m is installed on the
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Simply put, a solar panel works by allowing photons, or particles of light, to knock electrons free from atoms, generating a flow of electricity. Solar panels actually comprise many, smaller units called photovoltaic cells. (Photovoltaic simply means they convert sunlight into electricity. The attached diagram give an ilustsration of the photovotaic pannel mounted on a roof top.

Solution

To Determine the electric power generated for

a) A still summer day.

E = A * r * H * PR

E = Total Amount of Energy in kilowatt

A = Total Surface Area

r = efficiency Rating

H = global radiation value

PR = Performance Ratio

kwh = watt * Time/1000

kwh = 100 * 35/1000

3.5

b)

kwh = watt * Time/1000

kwh = 30 *15/1000

4.5
