Answer:

Dr. Engelbart, who would later help develop the computer mouse and other personal computing technologies, theorized that as electronic circuits were made smaller, their components would get faster, require less power and become cheaper to produce — all at an accelerating pace

Why is it reasonable to say that no system is 100% efficient?

Virty [35]

Generally, frictional losses are more predominant for the machines being not 100% efficient. This friction leads to the loss of energy in the form of heat, into the surroundings. Some of the supplied energy may be utilised to change the entropy (measure of randomness of the particles) of the system.

List and describe three classifications of burns to the body.

DiKsa [7]

AnswerWhat Are the Classifications of Burns? Burns are classified as first-, second-, or third-degree, depending on how deep and severe they penetrate the skin's surface. First-degree burns affect only the epidermis, or outer layer of skin. The burn site is red, painful, dry, and with no blisters.

1. A team of students have designed a battery-powered cooler, which promises to keep beverages at a high-drinkability temperatur

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Minimum electrical power required = 3.784 Watts

Minimum battery size needed = 3.03 Amp-hr

Explanation:

Temperature of the beverages, $T_L = 36^0 F = 275.372 K$

Outside temperature, $T_H = 100^0F = 310.928 K$

rate of insulation, $Q = 100 Btu/h$

To get the minimum electrical power required, use the relation below:

$\frac{T_L}{T_H - T_L} = \frac{Q}{W} \\W = \frac{Q(T_H - T_L)}{T_L}\\W = \frac{100(310.928 - 275.372)}{275.372}\\W = 12.91 Btu/h\\1 Btu/h = 0.293071 W\\W = 12.91 * 0.293071\\W_{min} = 3.784 Watt$

V = 5 V

Power = IV

$W_{min} = I_{min} V\\3.784 = 5I_{min}\\I_{min} = \frac{3.784}{5} \\I_{min} = 0.7568 A$

If the cooler is supposed to work for 4 hours, t = 4 hours

$I_{min} = 0.7568 * 4\\I_{min} = 3.03 Amp-hr$

Minimum battery size needed = 3.03 Amp-hr

For a steel alloy it has been determined that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 h duration will raise the carbon concentration

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

135 hour

Explanation:

It is given that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 hour will raise the carbon concentration by 0.35 wt% at a point of 2 mm from the surface.

We have to find the time necessary to achieve the same concentration at a 6 mm position.

we know that $\frac{x_1^2}{Dt}=constant$ where x is distance and t is time .As the temperature is constant so D will be also constant

So $\frac{x_1^2}{t}=constant$

then $\frac{x_1^2}{t_1}=\frac{x_2^2}{t_2}$ we have given $x_1=2 mm\ ,t_1=15 hour\ ,x_2=6\ mm$ and we have to find $t_2$ putting all these value in equation

$\frac{2^2}{15}=\frac{6^2}{t_2}$

so $t_2=135\ hour$
