Write the following decorators and apply them to a single function (applying multiple decorators to a single function): 1. The f
natita [175]

Answer:

Complete question is:

write the following decorators and apply them to a single function (applying multiple decorators to a single function):

1. The first decorator is called strong and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <strong> and </strong> to the argument of the decorator. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<strong>” + func() + “</strong>”

2. The decorator will return the wrapper per usual.

3. The second decorator is called emphasis and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <em> and </em> to the argument of the decorator similar to step 1. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<em>” + func() + “</em>.

4. Use the greetings() function in problem 1 as the decorated function that simply prints “Hello”.

5. Apply both decorators (by @ operator to greetings()).

6. Invoke the greetings() function and capture the result.

Code :

def strong_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<strong>{0}</strong>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

def em_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<em>{0}</em>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

@strong_decorator

@em_decorator

def Greetings(name):

return "{0}".format(name)

print(Greetings("Hello"))

Write the chemical equation of the polymerization reaction to synthesize PS
marin [14]

Explanation:

Styrene is  a vinyl monomer in which there is a carbon carbon double bond.

The polymerization of the styrene, which is initiated by using a free radical which reacts with the styrene and the compound thus forms react again and again to form polystyrene (PS).

The equation is shown below as:

\begin{matrix}& C_6H_5 \\&|\\n H_2C & =CH\end{matrix}        ⇒                \begin{matrix}&C_6H_5 \\&|\\ -[-H_2C & -CH-]-_n\end{matrix}

64A geothermal pump is used to pump brine whose density is 1050 kg/m3at a rate of 0.3 m3/s from a depth of 200 m. For a pump eff
grin007 [14]

Answer:

835,175.68W

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the required power input to the pump

First step is to calculate the power needed

Using this formula

P=V*p*g*h

Where,

P represent power

V represent Volume flow rate =0.3 m³/s

p represent brine density=1050 kg/m³

g represent gravity=9.81m/s²

h represent height=200m

Let plug in the formula

P=0.3 m³/s *1050 kg/m³*9.81m/s² *200m

P=618,030 W

Now let calculate the required power input to the pump

Using this formula

Required power input=P/μ

Where,

P represent power=618,030 W

μ represent pump efficiency=74%

Let plug in the formula

Required power input=618,030W/0.74

Required power input=835,175.68W

Therefore the required power input to the pump will be 835,175.68W

A rich industrialist was found murdered in his house. The police arrived at the scene at 11:00 PM. The temperature of the corpse
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The dude was killed around 6:30PM

Explanation:

Newton's law of cooling states:

    T = T_m + (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}

where,

T_0 = initial temp

T_m = temp of room

T = temp after t hours

k = how fast the temp is changing

t = time (hours)

T_0 = 31     because the body was initlally 31ºC when the police found it

T_m = 22   because that was the room temp

T = 30  because the body temp drop to 30ºC after 1 hour

t = 1 because that's the time it took for the body temp to drop to 30ºC

k=???   we don't know k so we must solve for this

rearrange the equation to solve for k

T = T_m + (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}

T - T_m= (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}

\frac{T - T_m}{(T_0-T_m)}= e^{kt}

ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})=kt

\frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{t}=k

plug in the numbers to solve for k

k = \frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{t}

k = \frac{ln(\frac{30 - 22}{31-22})}{1}

k=ln(\frac{8}{9})

Now that we know the value for k, we can find the moment the murder occur. A crucial information that the question left out is the temperature of a human body when they're still alive. A living human body is about 37ºC. We can use that as out initial temperature to solve this problem because we can assume that the freshly killed body will be around 37ºC.

T_0 = 37     because the body was 37ºC right after being killed

T_m = 22   because that was the room temp

T = 31  because the body temp when the police found it

k=ln(\frac{8}{9})   we solved this earlier

t = ???   we don't know how long it took from the time of the murder to when the police found the body

Rearrange the equation to solve for t

T = T_m + (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}

T - T_m= (T_0-T_m)e^{kt}

\frac{T - T_m}{(T_0-T_m)}= e^{kt}

ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})=kt

\frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{k}=t

plug in the values

t=\frac{ln(\frac{T - T_m}{T_0-T_m})}{k}

t=\frac{ln(\frac{31 - 22}{37-22})}{ln(8/9)}

t=\frac{ln(3/5)}{ln(8/9)}

t=\frac{ln(3/5)}{ln(8/9)}

t ≈ 4.337 hours from the time the body was killed to when the police found it.

The police found the body at 11:00PM so subtract 4.337 from that.

11 - 4.33 = 6.66 ≈ 6:30PM
