Answer:

Explanation:

The World Health Organization declared a global health emergency on Thursday as the coronavirus outbreak spread well beyond China, where it emerged last month.

The move reversed the organization’s decision just a week ago to hold off such a declaration. Since then, there have been thousands of new cases in China and clear evidence of human-to-human transmission in several other countries, including the United States.

All of which warranted a reconsideration by the W.H.O.’s emergency committee, officials said.

The declaration “is not a vote of no confidence in China,” said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the W.H.O.’s director-general. “On the contrary, the W.H.O. continues to have confidence in China’s capacity to control the outbreak.”

Two loads connected in parallel draw a total of 2.4 kW at 0.8 pf lagging from a 120-V rms, 60-Hz line. One load absorbs 1.5 kW a

stealth61 [152]

Answer: a) 0.948 b) 117.5µf

Explanation:

Given the load, a total of 2.4kw and 0.8pf

V= 120V, 60 Hz

P= 2.4 kw, cos θ= 80

P= S sin θ - (p/cos θ) sin θ

= P tan θ(cos^-1 (0.8)

=2.4 tan(36.87)= 1.8KVAR

S= 2.4 + j1. 8KVA

1 load absorbs 1.5 kW at 0.707 pf lagging

P= 1.5 kW, cos θ= 0.707 and θ=45 degree

Q= Ptan θ= tan 45°

Q=P=1.5kw

S1= 1.5 +1.5j KVA

S1 + S2= S

2.4+j1.8= 1.5+1.5j + S2

S2= 0.9 + 0.3j KVA

S2= 0.949= 18.43 °

Pf= cos(18.43°) = 0.948

b.) pf to 0.9, a capacitor is needed.

Pf = 0.9

Cos θ= 0.9

θ= 25.84 °

(WC) V^2= P (tan θ1 - tan θ2)

C= 2400 ( tan (36. 87°) - tan (25.84°)) /2 πf × 120^2

f=60, π=22/7

C= 117.5µf

(Signal Property) Under what condition is a discrete-time signal x[????] or a continuous-time signal x(????) periodic? Determine

Cloud [144]

Answer:

a. 2x/3

b. 8

Explanation:

fundamental period can be defined to mean that at after every period of 2π radians or 360° the value of graph is repeated. For such functions the fundamental period is the period after which they repeat themselves.

It van also be looked as The fundamental period of cos(θ) is 2π. That is (for example) cos(0) to cos(2π) represents one full period.

The 10 foot wide circle quarter gate AB is articulated at A. Determine the contact force between the gate and the smooth surface

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}$

Explanation:

Given that

R=8 ft

Width= 10 ft

We know that hydro statics force given as

F=ρ g A X

ρ is the density of fluid

A projected area on vertical plane

X is distance of center mass of projected plane from free surface of water.

Here

X=8/2 ⇒X=4 ft

A=8 x 10=80 $ft^2$

So now putting the values

F=ρ g A X

F=62.4(32.14)(80)(4)

$F = 641,771.52 \dfrac{lb-ft}{s^2}$

What is the connection between the air fuel ratio and an engine running rich/poor? please give clear examples and full sentances

gavmur [86]

Explanation:

Air fuel ratio:

Air fuel ratio is the ratio of mass of air to the mass of fuel.So we can say that

$Air\ fuel\ ratio=\dfrac{mass\ of\ air}{mass\ of\ fuel}$

As we know that fuel burn in the presence of air that is why we have to maintain a proper amount of air fuel ratio.

When we need more power then we have supply more fuel and to burn this fuel ,require a specified amount of air.So for different loading condition of engine different air fuel ratio is required.

When air is less and fuel is more then it is called rich air fuel ratio .when air is more and fuel is less then it is called poor air fuel ratio.

According to the decreasing order of toughness. list the following materials (note: the steels are assumed to have no cold work

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.

Explanation:

Toughness:

Toughness can be define as the are of load -deflection diagram up to fracture point.

Modulus of toughness can be defines as the area of stress-strain diagram up to fracture point.Modulus of toughness is the property of material.

So the decreasing order of toughness can be given as follows

1090 Steel >1040 Steel > Pure aluminium >Diamond.
