On computer X, a nonpipelined instruction execution would require 12 ns. A pipelined implementation uses 6 equal-length stages of 2 ns each. Assuming one million instructions execute and ignoring empty stages at the start/end, the speedup of the pipelined vs. non-pipelined implementation is .

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

Draw the engineering stress-strain curve for (a) bcc; (b) fcc metals and mark important points.

An ideal otto cycle with air as the working fluid has a compression ratio of 8. the minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 300 k and 1340 k. use constant specific heats at room temperature to determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air during the heat- addition kj/kg, (b) the thermal efficiency, and (c) the thermal efficiency of a carnot cycle ope limits. process, in rating between the same temperature
