Answer:

The ground-fault circuit interrupter, or GFCI, is a fast-acting circuit breaker designed to shut off electric power in the event of a ground-fault within as little as 1/40 of a second.

The fracture strength of glass may be increased by etching away a thin surface layer. It is believed that the etching may alter

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we determine the initial fracture stress using the following expression;

(σf)₁ = 2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ ----- let this be equation 1

where; (σ₀)₁ is the initial fracture strength

( $p_t$ )₁ is the original crack tip radius

α₁ is the original crack length.

first, we determine the final crack length;

α₂ = α₁ - 16% of α₁

α₂ = α₁ - ( 0.16 × α₁)

α₂ = α₁ - 0.16α₁

α₂ = 0.84α₁

next, we calculate the final fracture stress;

the fracture strength is increased by a factor of 6;

(σ₀)₂ = 6( σ₀ )₁

Now, expression for the final fracture stress

(σf)₂ = 2(σ₀)₂ $[$ α₂/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$ ------- let this be equation 2

where ( $p_t$ )₂ is the etched crack tip radius

value of fracture stress of glass is constant

Now, we substitute 2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ from equation for (σf)₂ in equation 2.

0.84α₁ for α₂.

6( σ₀ )₁ for (σ₀)₂.

∴

2(σ₀)₁ $[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 2(6( σ₀ )₁) $[$ 0.84α₁/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

divide both sides by 2(σ₀)₁

$[$ α₁/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 6 $[$ 0.84α₁/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

$[$ 1/( $p_t$ )₁ $]^{1/2$ = 6 $[$ 0.84/( $p_t$ )₂ $]^{1/2$

$[$ 1/( $p_t$ )₁ $]$ = 36 $[$ 0.84/( $p_t$ )₂ $]$

1 / ( $p_t$ )₁ = 30.24 / ( $p_t$ )₂

( $p_t$ )₂ = 30.24( $p_t$ )₁

( $p_t$ )₂/( $p_t$ )₁ = 30.24

Therefore, the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

What does this middle button on the middle of my Chevrolet equinox steering wheel mean?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Depending on how new your vehicle is, to me it looks like some sort of turn on button for forward collision safety feature, but i'm not an expert with this particular vehicle. If you want a better answer, I strongly suggest looking at the owner's manual under which should be located in the front dash compartment on the passengers side. Once you have the manual, look in the appendix until you find controls (or something similar) then go to that page and read about your vehicles control buttons. Your answer should be in the manual.

Something that all automobile owners should do right after purchasing a new vehicle, is reading the owners manual. As boring as it may seem, reading the owner's manual will help you get used to your new car quicker and give you instructions on how to take care of your car so that it lasts.

Have a great day, and I wish you safe traveling for now and forever! :)

A plate and frame heat exchanger has 15 plates made of stainless steel that are 1 m tall. The plates are 1 mm thick and 0.6 m wi

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

14.506°C

Explanation:

Given data :

flow rate of water been cooled = 0.011 m^3/s

inlet temp = 30°C + 273 = 303 k

cooling medium temperature = 6°C + 273 = 279 k

flow rate of cooling medium = 0.02 m^3/s

Determine the outlet temperature

we can determine the outlet temperature by applying the relation below

Heat gained by cooling medium = Heat lost by water

= ( Mcp ( To - 6 ) = Mcp ( 30 - To )

since the properties of water and the cooling medium ( water ) is the same

= 0.02 ( To - 6 ) = 0.011 ( 30 - To )

= 1.82 ( To - 6 ) = 30 - To

hence To ( outlet temperature ) = 14.506°C
