Centrifugal compressors are more stable than reciprocating in terms of operation.

Centrifugal compressors are more stable than reciprocating in terms of operation. Correct Answer True

Centrifugal compressors do not have parts like valves, pistons, etc. just impeller and casing. Due to fewer parts operating at the same time, there are no unbalanced masses hence compressor operates with lesser vibrations and remains quiet too. Hence, Centrifugal compressors are more stable than reciprocating in terms of operation.

P, Q, R, Sand T are five crops that Babu grows. T is fast growing and more water demanding than R which gives more yield than T. P gives more yield than R and grows faster than Q. Q is more water demanding than T but is second lowest yielder, S is the slowest growing and least water demanding of all crops but gives highest yield. R is more water demanding and grows faster than P. Select the crop or crops that has/ have as many as crops that are more water demanding and as many as crops that give less yield than it.
