Explanation:
The human eye, as well as the light-sensitive chemicals on color photographic film, respond differently to light sources with different spectral distributions. Daylight lighting corresponds to the spectral distribution of the solar disk, which may be approximated as a blackbody at 5800K. Incandescent lighting from the usual household bulb corresponds approximately to the spectral distribution of a black body at 2900K. Calculate the band emission fractions for the visible region, 0.47 mu m to 0.65 mum, for each of the lighting sources. Calculate the wavelength corresponding to the maximum spectral intensity for each of the light sources
Answer:
a) at T = 5800 k
band emission = 0.2261
at T = 2900 k
band emission = 0.0442
b) daylight (d) = 0.50 μm
Incandescent ( i ) = 1 μm
Explanation:
To Calculate the band emission fractions we will apply the Wien's displacement Law
The ban emission fraction in spectral range λ1 to λ2 at a blackbody temperature T can be expressed as
F ( λ1 - λ2, T ) = F( 0 ----> λ2,T) - F( 0 ----> λ1,T )
Values are gotten from the table named: blackbody radiation functions
a) Calculate the band emission fractions for the visible region
at T = 5800 k
band emission = 0.2261
at T = 2900 k
band emission = 0.0442
attached below is a detailed solution to the problem
b)calculate wavelength corresponding to the maximum spectral intensity
For daylight ( d ) = 2898 μm *k / 5800 k = 0.50 μm
For Incandescent ( i ) = 2898 μm *k / 2900 k = 1 μm
.If aligned and continuous carbon fibers with a diameter of 6.90 micron are embedded within an epoxy, such that the bond strength across the fiber-epoxy interface is 17 MPa, and the shear yield strength of the epoxy is 68 MPa, compute the minimum fiber length, in millimeters, to guarantee that the fibers are conveying an optimum fraction of force that is applied to the composite. The tensile strength of these carbon fibers is 3960 MPa.
Answer:
the required minimum fiber length is 0.80365 mm
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Diameter D = 6.90 microns = 6.90 × 10⁻⁶ m
Bond strength ζ = 17 MPa
Shear yield strength ζ[tex]_y[/tex] = 68 Mpa
tensile strength of carbon fibers [tex]6t_{fiber[/tex] = 3960 MPa.
To determine the minimum fiber length we make use of the following relation;
L = ([tex]6t_{fiber[/tex] × D) / 2ζ
we substitute our given values into the equation;
L = ( 3960 × 6.90 × 10⁻⁶) / (2 × 17 )
L = 0.027324 / 34
L = 0.000803647 m
L = 0.000803647 × (1000) mm
L = 0.80365 mm
Therefore, the required minimum fiber length is 0.80365 mm

A tank has a gauge pressure of 552 psi. The cover of an inspection port on the tank has a surface area of 18 square inches. What is the total force the cover is experiencing.
Answer:
44197.55 N
Explanation:
From the question,
Pressure of the pressure guage (P) = Total force experienced by the cover (F)/Area of the cover (A)
P = F/A................ Equation 1
make F the subeject of the equation
F = P×A............... Equation 2
Given: P = 552 psi = (552×6894.76) = 3805907.52 N/m², A = 18 square inches = (18×0.00064516) = 0.01161288 m²
Substitute these values into equation 2
F = ( 3805907.52×0.01161288)
F = 44197.55 N

1) What is the cycle time for operation?
2) What is the theoretical minimum number of workstation?
Answer:
1) the cycle time for operation is 9.6 min
2) the theoretical minimum number of workstation is 5
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
production time per day = 480 minutes
average daily demand = 50
Given the data in the question;
1) cycle time for operation
this is simply referred to as the total time for the process from start to finish.
cycle time = production time per day / units demand per day
we substitute
cycle time = 480 min / 50
cycle time = 9.6 min
Therefore, the cycle time for operation is 9.6 min
2) theoretical minimum number of workstation.
theoretical minimum number of workstation = total task time / cycle time
Total task time = ( 4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 6 ) = 49 min
∴ theoretical minimum number of workstation = 49 min / 9.6 min
theoretical minimum number of workstation = 5.104 ≈ 5
Therefore, the theoretical minimum number of workstation is 5

Explanation:
La probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Si se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si comprarían el nuevo producto, ¿cuál es la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 adquieran el nuevo producto?
Answer:
La probabilidad pedida es [tex]0.820196[/tex]
Explanation:
Sabemos que la probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85. Sabemos también que se eligen 10 personas al azar y se les pregunta si comprarían el nuevo producto. Para responder a la pregunta, primero definiremos la siguiente variable aleatoria :
[tex]X:[/tex] '' Número de personas que adquirirán el nuevo producto de 10 personas a las que se les preguntó ''
Ahora bien, si suponemos que la probabilidad de que el nuevo producto tenga éxito se mantiene constante [tex](p=0.85)[/tex] y además suponemos que hay independencia entre cada una de las personas al azar a las que se les preguntó ⇒ Podemos modelar a [tex]X[/tex] como una variable aleatoria Binomial. Esto se escribe :
[tex]X[/tex] ~ [tex]Bi(n,p)[/tex] en donde [tex]''n''[/tex] es el número de personas entrevistadas y [tex]''p''[/tex] es la probabilidad de éxito (una persona adquiriendo el producto) en cada caso.
Utilizando los datos ⇒ [tex]X[/tex] ~ [tex]Bi(10,0.85)[/tex]
La función de probabilidad de la variable aleatoria binomial es :
[tex]p_{X}(x)=P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}n&x\end{array}\right)p^{x}(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex] con [tex]x=0,1,2,...,n[/tex]
Si reemplazamos los datos de la pregunta en la función de probabilidad obtenemos :
[tex]P(X=x)=\left(\begin{array}{c}10&x\end{array}\right)(0.85)^{x}(0.15)^{10-x}[/tex] con [tex]x=0,1,2,...,10[/tex]
Nos piden la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 personas adquieran el nuevo producto, esto es :
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=P(X=8)+P(X=9)+P(X=10)[/tex]
Calculando [tex]P(X=8), P(X=9)[/tex] y [tex]P(X=10)[/tex] por separado y sumando, obtenemos que [tex]P(X\geq 8)=0.820196[/tex]
Por definición de variable aleatoria binomial, la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 adquieran el nuevo producto es 0.8202.
En primer lugar, debes saber que la Probabilidad es la mayor o menor posibilidad de que ocurra un determinado suceso.
En otras palabras, la probabilidad establece una relación entre el número de sucesos favorables y el número total de sucesos posibles.
Por otro lado, una variable aleatoria es una función que asocia un número real, perfectamente definido, a cada punto muestral.
Una variable aleatoria es discreta si los números a los que da lugar son números enteros.
Finalmente, una distribución binomial es una distribución de probabilidad discreta que describe el número de éxitos al realizar n experimentos independientes entre sí, acerca de una variable aleatoria.
La expresión para calcular la distribución binomial es:
P(X=x)=( [tex]n\\ x[/tex] ) pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ
Donde:
n = Número de ensayos/experimentos x = Número de éxitos p = Probabilidad de éxito q = Probabilidad de fracaso (1-p)Recordar que:
( [tex]n\\ x[/tex] )= [tex]\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
donde el signo de exclamación representa el símbolo de factorial, es decir el producto de todos los números enteros positivos desde 1 hasta n.
En este caso, sabes que la probabilidad de que un nuevo producto tenga éxito es de 0.85 y se eligen 10 personas al azar. Entonces se define la siguiente variable aleatoria:
X= '' Número de personas que adquirirán el nuevo producto de 10 personas a las que se les preguntó ''
Suponiendo que hay independencia entre cada una de las personas al azar a las que se les preguntó, es posible usar una variable aleatoria Binomial. Siendo n el número de personas entrevistadas (en este caso, 10 personas) y p la probabilidad de éxito (una persona adquiriendo el producto, en este caso 0.85) en cada caso, la expresión a utilizar queda expresada como:
P(X=x)=( [tex]10\\ x[/tex] ) 0.85ˣ (1-0.85)¹⁰⁻ˣ
P(X=x)= [tex]\frac{10!}{x!(10-x)!}[/tex] 0.85ˣ (0.15)¹⁰⁻ˣ
Se desea calcular la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 adquieran el nuevo producto. Siendo 10 las personas elegidas al azar, puede ser que sean 8,9 o 10 las personas que adquieran un nuevo producto. Entonces la probabilidad deseada es calculada como:
[tex]P(X\geq 8)= P(X=8) + P(X=9) + (P=10)[/tex]
Entonces:
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=[/tex] [tex]\frac{10!}{8!(10-8)!}[/tex] 0.85⁸ (0.15)¹⁰⁻⁸ + [tex]\frac{10!}{9!(10-9)!}[/tex] 0.85⁹ (0.15)¹⁰⁻⁹ + [tex]\frac{10!}{10!(10-10)!}[/tex] 0.85¹⁰ (0.15)¹⁰⁻¹⁰
Resolviendo:
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=[/tex] [tex]\frac{10!}{8!2!}[/tex] 0.85⁸ (0.15)² + [tex]\frac{10!}{9!1!}[/tex] 0.85⁹ (0.15)¹ + [tex]\frac{10!}{10!0!}[/tex] 0.85¹⁰ (0.15)⁰
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=[/tex] 45×0.85⁸×(0.15)² + 10×0.85⁹×(0.15)¹ + 1×0.85¹⁰×(0.15)⁰
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=[/tex] 0.2759 + 0.3474 + 0.1969
[tex]P(X\geq 8)=[/tex] 0.8202
Finalmente, la probabilidad de que por lo menos 8 adquieran el nuevo producto es 0.8202.

We are given a CSP with only binary constraints. Assume we run backtracking search with arc consistency as follows. Initially, when presented with the CSP, one round of arc consistency is enforced. This first round of arc consistency will typically result in variables having pruned domains. Then we start a backtracking search using the pruned domains. In this backtracking search we use filtering through enforcing arc consistency after every assignment in the search.
Which of the following are true about this algorithm?
a) If after a run of arc consistency during the backtracking searchwe end up with the filtered domains of allof the not yetassigned variables being empty, this means the CSP has nosolution.
b) If after a run of arc consistency during the backtracking searchwe end up with the filtered domain of oneof the not yetassigned variables being empty, this means the CSP has nosolution.
c) None of the above.

An acid-base indicator is usually a weak acid with a characteristic color in the protonated (acid) and deprotonated (conjugate base) forms. In this assignment, you will monitor the color of an acetic acid solution containing Bromocresol Green as an indicator, as the pH is changed and then you will use your data to calculate the ionization constant, Ka, for the bromocresol green indicator and compare to an accepted value.
1. Start Virtual Chemlab, select Acid-Base Chemistry, and then select lonization Constants of Weak Acids from the list of assignments. The lab will open in the Titration laboratory. Bottles of 0.1104 M NaOH and 0.1031 M HAC (acetic acid) will be on the lab bench. The buret will be filled with the NaOH solution and a beaker containing 10.00 mL of the HAc solution will be on the stir plate. The stir plate will be on, Bromocresol Green indicator will have been added to the beaker, and a calibrated pH probe will also be in the beaker so the pH of the solution can be monitored.
2. What is the color and pH of the solution?
3. On the buret, the horizontal position of the orange handle is off for the stopcock. Open the stopcock by pulling down on the orange handle. The vertical position delivers solution the fastest with three intermediate rates in between (slow dropwise, fast dropwise, and slow stream). Turn the stopcock to the second position or fast drop-wise addition. Observe the color of the solution and close the stopcock when you observe the change in color by double clicking on the center of the stopcock.
4. What is the color and pH of the solution now?
5. Continue to add NaOH as before or at a faster rate. What is the final color and pH of the solution after all of the NaOH is added?
6. An acid-base indicator is usually a weak acid with a characteristic color in the protonated and deprotonated forms. Because bromocresol green is an acid, it is convenient to represent its rather complex formula as HBOG. HBOG ionizes in water according to the following equation:
HBOG + H2O = BCG + H3O+
(yellow) (blue)
The K. (the equilibrium constant for the acid) expression is:
Ka = [BCG-][H3O+]/[HBCG)
When [BCG-[ = [HBCG), then Ka = [H3O+). If you know the pH of the solution, then the [H3O+] and Ka can be determined.
What would be the color of the solution if there were equal concentrations of HBCG and BCG-?
What is the pH at the first appearance of this color?
What is an estimate for the Ka for bromocresol green?

An engineer is testing the shear strength of spot welds used on a construction site. The engineer's null hypothesis at a 5% level of signigicance, is that th mean shear strenfth of spot welds is at least 3.1 MPa. The engineer randomly selcts 15 Welds and measures the shear strength is 3.07 MPa with a sample standard deciation of 0.069 MPa. Which of the following statment is true?
a) The null hypothesis should not be rejected.
b) The null hypothesis should be rejected.
c) The alternate hypothesis should be rejected.
d) The null and alternate hypotheses are equally likely.
Answer:
b) The null hypothesis should be rejected.
Explanation:
The null hypothesis is that the mean shear strength of spot welds is at least
3.1 MPa
H0: u ≥3.1 MPa against the claim Ha: u< 3.1 MPa
The alternate hypothesis is that the mean shear strength of spot welds is less than 3.1 MPa.
This is one tailed test
The critical region Z(0.05) < ± 1.645
The Sample mean= x`= 3.07
The number of welds= n= 15
Standard Deviation= s= 0.069
Applying z test
z= x`-u/s/√n
z= 3.07-3.1/0.069/√15
z= -0.03/0.0178
z= -1.68
As the calculated z= -1.68 falls in the critical region Z(0.05) < ± 1.645 the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternate hypothesis is accepted that the mean shear strength of spot welds is less than 3.1 MPa
