(30 pts.) According to the Darcy-Weisbach equation, the loss in power-generating capacity (P) in a hydroelectric system due to head loss (H) is: P QH =ηγ where η is turbine efficiency, γ the specific gravity of water, Q the volumetric flow rate, and H the head loss. Measurements over a particular stretch of time yielded the summary data below: Parameter Mean value Standard deviation η 0.85 0.02 γ 9800 N/m3 0.0 N/m3 Q 60 m3 /s 1.00 m3 /s H 3.71 m 0.10 m a) What is the uncertainty (variance) in P that can be attributed to variations in the above measurements? b) Which of the following actions would provide the greatest reduction in uncertainty in P: a) reduce uncertainty in η to 0.01, reduce uncertainty in Q to 0.5, or reduce uncertainty in H to 0.05?

Consider a file currently consisting of 200 blocks. assume that the file control block (and the index block in the case of indexed allocation) is already in memory. calculate how many disk i/o operations are required for contiguous, linked, and indexed (single-level) allocation strategies, for each of the conditions listed below. in the contiguous-allocation case, assume that there is not room to grow at the beginning but there is room to grow at the end. also assume that the block information to be added is stored in memory.
