State the mathematical expression to define the availability of equipment over a specified time and operational availability?

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

$Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{Down\ time+Up\ time}$

Explanation:

Availability:

It define as the probability of system which perform desired task before showing any failure .

The availability can be define as follows

$Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{Down\ time+Up\ time}$

Or we can say that

$Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{total\ time}$

Availability can also be express as

$Availability=\dfrac{MTBF}{MTBF+MTTR}$

Where MTBF is the mean time between two failure.

MTTR is the mean time to repair.

A _____ satellite system employs many satellites that are spaced so that, from any point on the Earth at any time, at least one

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

d. low earth orbit (LEO)

Explanation:

This type of satellites form a constellation deployed as a series of “necklaces” in such a way that at any time, at least one satellite is visible by a receiver antenna, compensating the movement due to the earth rotation.

Opposite to that, a geostationary satellite is at an altitude that makes it like a fixed point over the Earth´s equator, rotating synchronously with the Earth, so it is always visible in a given area.

Gas is kept in a 0.1 m diameter cylinder under the weight of a 100 kg piston that is held down by a spring with a stiffness k =

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The spring is compressed by 0.275 meters.

Explanation:

For equilibrium of the gas and the piston the pressure exerted by the gas on the piston should be equal to the sum of weight of the piston and the force the spring exerts on the piston

Mathematically we can write

$Force_{pressure}=Force_{spring}+Weight_{piston}$

we know that

$Force_{pressure}=Pressure\times Area=300\times 10^{3}\times \frac{\pi \times 0.1^2}{4}=750\pi Newtons$

$Weight_{piston}=mass\times g=100\times 9.81=981Newtons$

Now the force exerted by an spring compressed by a distance 'x' is given by $Force_{spring}=k\cdot x=5\times 10^{3}\times x$

Using the above quatities in the above relation we get

$5\times 10^{3}\times x+981=750\pi \\\\\therefore x=\frac{750\pi -981}{5\times 10^{3}}=0.275meters$
