Answer: A. Water dam

B. Coal- fired generator

C. Solar panel array

D. Nuclear power reactor

F. Gasoline

Explanation:

Water dam is a source of hydroelectrical energy as the energy produced by the high speed water currents can be used to generate electrical energy.

Coal fired generator is a source thermal energy.

Solar panel array converts the heat energy from the sun into electrical energy.

Nuclear power reactor converts the thermal energy from the radiations generated after the fusion and fission reactions of the heavy atoms in a nuclear reactor. The thermal energy is converted into electrical energy.

Gasoline is a source of thermal energy which is used to run the machine or vehicle. This way thermal energy is converted into mechanical energy.

(35-39) A student travels on a school bus in the middle of winter from home to school. The school bus temperature is 68.0° F. Th

arlik [135]

Answer:

The net energy transfer from the student's body during the 20-min ride to school is 139.164 BTU.

Explanation:

From Heat Transfer we determine that heat transfer rate due to electromagnetic radiation ( $\dot Q$ ), measured in BTU per hour, is represented by this formula:

$\dot Q = \epsilon\cdot A\cdot \sigma \cdot (T_{s}^{4}-T_{b}^{4})$ (1)

Where:

$\epsilon$ - Emissivity, dimensionless.

$A$ - Surface area of the student, measured in square feet.

$\sigma$ - Stefan-Boltzmann constant, measured in BTU per hour-square feet-quartic Rankine.

$T_{s}$ - Temperature of the student, measured in Rankine.

$T_{b}$ - Temperature of the bus, measured in Rankine.

If we know that $\epsilon = 0.90$ , $A = 16.188\,ft^{2}$ , $\sigma = 1.714\times 10^{-9}\,\frac{BTU}{h\cdot ft^{2}\cdot R^{4}}$ , $T_{s} = 554.07\,R$ and $T_{b} = 527.67\,R$ , then the heat transfer rate due to electromagnetic radiation is:

$\dot Q = (0.90)\cdot (16.188\,ft^{2})\cdot \left(1.714\times 10^{-9}\,\frac{BTU}{h\cdot ft^{2}\cdot R^{4}} \right)\cdot [(554.07\,R)^{4}-(527.67\,R)^{4}]$

$\dot Q = 417.492\,\frac{BTU}{h}$

Under the consideration of steady heat transfer we find that the net energy transfer from the student's body during the 20 min-ride to school is:

$Q = \dot Q \cdot \Delta t$ (2)

Where $\Delta t$ is the heat transfer time, measured in hours.

If we know that $\dot Q = 417.492\,\frac{BTU}{h}$ and $\Delta t = \frac{1}{3}\,h$ , then the net energy transfer is:

$Q = \left(417.492\,\frac{BTU}{h} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\,h \right)$

$Q = 139.164\,BTU$

The net energy transfer from the student's body during the 20-min ride to school is 139.164 BTU.

This problem has been solved!

lisov135 [29]

Answer: a) 135642 b) 146253

Explanation:

1- the bankers algorithm tests for safety by simulating the allocation for predetermined maximum possible amounts of all resources, as stated this has the greatest degree of concurrency.

3- reserving all resources in advance helps would happen most likely if the algorithm has been used.

5- Resource ordering comes first before detection of any deadlock

6- Thread action would be rolled back much easily of Resource ordering precedes.

4- restart thread and release all resources if thread needs to wait, this should surely happen before killing the thread

2- only option practicable after thread has been killed.

Bii) ; No. Even if deadlock happens rapidly, the safest sequence have been decided already.

The 15-kg block A slides on the surface for which µk = 0.3. The block has a velocity v = 10 m/s when it is s = 4 m from the 10-k

sammy [17]

Answer:

s_max = 0.8394m

Explanation:

From equilibrium of block, N = W = mg

Frictional force = μ_k•N = μ_k•mg

Since μ_k = 0.3,then F = 0.3mg

To determine the velocity of Block A just before collision, let's apply the principle of work and energy;

T1 + ΣU_1-2 = T2

So, (1/2)m_a•(v_ao)² - F•s =(1/2)m_a•(v_a1)²

Plugging in the relevant values to get ;

(1/2)•(15)•(10)² - (0.3•15•9.81•4) =(1/2)(15)•(v_a1)²

750 - 176.58 = 7.5(v_a1)²

v_a1 = 8.744 m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum;

Σ(m1v1) = Σ(m2v2)

Thus,

m_a•v_a1 + m_b•v_b1 = m_a•v_a2 + m_b•v_b2

Thus;

15(8.744) + 10(0) = 15(v_a2) + 10(v_b2)

Divide through by 5;

3(8.744) + 2(0) = 3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2)

Thus,

3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2) = 26.232 - - - (eq1)

Coefficient of restitution has a formula;

e = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(v_a1 - v_b1)

From the question, e = 0.6.

Thus;

0.6 = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(8.744 - 0)

0.6 x 8.744 = (v_b2 - v_a2)

(v_b2 - v_a2) = 5.246 - - - (eq2)

Solving eq(1) and 2 simultaneously, we have;

v_b2 = 8.394 m/s

v_a2 = 3.148 m/s

Now, to find maximum compression, let's apply conservation of energy on block B;

T1 + V1 = T2 + V2

Thus,

(1/2)m_b•(v_b2)² + (1/2)k(s_1)² = (1/2)m_b•(v_b'2)² + (1/2)k(s_max)²

(1/2)10•(8.394)² + (1/2)1000(0)² = (1/2)10•(0)² + (1/2)(1000)(s_max)²

500(s_max)² = 352.29618

(s_max)² = 352.29618/500

(s_max)² = 0.7046

s_max = 0.8394m

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Wind energy is converted to Mechanical energy which is then converted in to electrical energy

Explanation:

In a wind mill the following energy conversions take place

a) Wind energy is converted into Mechanical energy (rotation of rotor blades)

b) Mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy (by using electric motor)

This electrical energy is then used for transmission through electric lines.

Which principle of the software engineering code of ethics has gilbert violated?.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Judgement

Explanation:

Gilbert is required by the Judgement Principle to "disclose those conflicts of interest that cannot reasonably be avoided or escaped." Since Gilbert professionally believes that the software meets specifications, secures documents, and satisfies user requirements, it is not clear if he violated any principle. However, he could have informed his client of his interest in the software and also presented other software packages of different companies from which the client could make its independent choice.
