Continous
continuous
Generally continuous but it is discrete if you look at one cupful, two cupfuls, etc (or spoonful or bucketful).
No, this is a discrete variable since it can assume only whole number values: 0, 1, 2, 3, ... . A continuous variable would be one such as volume of water in a swimming pool which could be measured in real number units of volume.
The continuous ribbon process is a manufacturing technique used primarily in the production of flexible materials, such as films or textiles, where the material is produced in a continuous length rather than in discrete pieces. This process typically involves feeding raw materials through a series of rollers or molds that shape and cure the material as it moves along a conveyor system. It allows for efficient high-volume production and can reduce waste compared to batch processes. The continuous ribbon process is often employed in industries like packaging, automotive, and electronics.
Yes
I came on here to find the answer to this question lolololololololololololololololololololololol
I hope I understand your question is related to the discretization of phenomena/ processes. The reason we do it is to get answers. I will extend a bit the question - as to why we take a continuous process/ phenomena and break it down into discrete segments, blocks, cells, etc. Some continuous processes are described by differential equations, and have general solutions. But not all processes are solvable through calculus. If we can describe a process in a discrete "control volume" at a point in time, then this can be extended to model a system with a network of cells or mesh. In doing so, we are discretizing the process in both the time and spatial dimensions. From the discretize system, time and spatial-variant responses of the system of key components of the system can be obtained through numerical methods. This is done in many of the scientific/ engineering fields, including hydrology, ecology, petroleum reservoir simulation, aeronautics and atmospherical studies. Ozone depletion and global warming models are good examples of discretized continuous systems.
By increasing the spout diameter and boring out the faucet seats as the 1/4" opening allows only a certain amount of volume
The volume of water that comes out of the tub faucet is much greater than the volume of water that comes out of the kitchen faucet. Let's say that the bathroom is twice as far from the water heater than the kitchen, so twice as much water has to be run to get the hot water. If the tub faucet allows more than twice as much water to pass through, then it will get there faster.
An example of a sound that does not change in volume is a continuous tone produced by a tuning fork.
The measurement "45 apples" is a count measurement, specifically a discrete quantity, as it refers to the exact number of individual items (apples) rather than a continuous measurement (like weight or volume). It represents a whole number that quantifies the specific amount of apples without any fractional component.
Depends on the product. Both can be profitable. If volume is high and the product is standard, than, the continuous production is a better fit. If the product need flexibility and less volume, the batch production is more suitable.
