It is acceptable to mix used absorbents. This statement is False.

<h3>What are absorbents?</h3>

Absorbent is a material which soaks the liquid quickly.

The used absorbents should not be put into drains or ground. It may happen that non-hazardous material react with the hazardous waste by putting up used absorbent.

Mixing up will create hazardous effects in the environment and pollute it.

Thus, It is not acceptable to mix the used absorbents. The given statement is false.

A fuel cell vehicle draws 50 kW of power at 70 mph and is 40% efficient at rated power. You are asked to size the fuel cell syst

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

a) fuel cell weight and volume: 50 kg, 33.3 L

b) fuel tank weight and volume: 321 kg, 643 L

Explanation:

Delivery of 50 kW from a source with a power density of 1.5 kW/L requires a source that has a volume of ...

(50 kW)/(1.5 kW/L) = 33.3 L

The weight of the power source is 1 kW/kg, so will be ...

(50 kW)/(1 kW/kg) = 50 kg

400 miles at 70 mph will take (400/70) h ≈ 5.71429 h. In that time, the energy used by the vehicle power plant is ...

(50 kW)(5.71429 h)(3600 s/h) = 1028.57 MJ

Since the power plant is 40% efficient, it must be supplied with 2.5 times that amount of energy, or 2571.43 MJ.

The tank volume and mass will then be ...

volume = 2571.43 MJ/(4 MJ/L) = 642.9 L

mass = 2571.43 MJ/(8 MJ/L) = 321.4 kg

_____

<em>Comment on fuel tank volume</em>

It appears the fuel tank would need to be equivalent in size to a sphere about 1.1 m in diameter.

This problem demonstrates aliasing. Generate a 512-point waveform consisting of 2 sinusoids at 200 and 400-Hz. Assume a sampling

aalyn [17]

Answer and Explanation:

clear all; close all;

N=512;

t=(1:N)/N;

fs=1000;

f=(1:N)*fs/N;

x= sin(2*pi*200*t) + sin(2*pi*400*t);

y= sin(2*pi*200*t) + sin(2*pi*900*t);

for n = 1:20

a(n) = (2/N)*sum(x.*(cos(2*pi*n*t)))

b(n) = (2/N)*sum(x.*(sin(2*pi*n*t)))

c(n) = sqrt(a(n).^2+b(n).^2)

theta(n) =-(360/(2*pi))*atan(b(n)./a(n));

end

plot(f(1:20),c(1:20),'rd');

disp([a(1:4),b(1:4),c(1:4),theta(1:4)])

For methyl chloride at 100°C the second and third virial coefficients are: B = −242.5 cm 3 ·mol −1 C = 25,200 cm 6 ·mol −2 Calcu

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

a)W=12.62 kJ/mol

b)W=12.59 kJ/mol

Explanation:

At T = 100 °C the second and third virial coefficients are

B = -242.5 cm^3 mol^-1

C = 25200 cm^6 mo1^-2

Now according isothermal work of one mole methyl gas is

W=- $\int\limits^a_b {P} \, dV$

a= $v_2\\$

b= $v_1$

from virial equation

$\frac{PV}{RT}=z=1+\frac{B}{V}+\frac{C}{V^2}\\ \\P=RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2})\frac{1}{V}\\$

And

$W=-\int\limits^a_b {RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2}\frac{1}{V} } \, dV$

a= $v_2\\$

b= $v_1$

Now calculate V1 and V2 at given condition

$\frac{P1V1}{RT} = 1+\frac{B}{v_1} +\frac{C}{v_1^2}$

Substitute given values $P_1\\$ = 1 x 10^5 , T = 373.15 and given values of coefficients we get

$10^5(v_1)/8.314*373.15=1-242.5/v_1+25200/v_1^2$

Solve for V1 by iterative or alternative cubic equation solver we get

$v_1=30780 cm^3/mol$

Similarly solve for state 2 at P2 = 50 bar we get

$v_1=241.33 cm^3/mol$

Now

$W=-\int\limits^a_b {RT(1+\frac{B}{V} +\frac{C}{V^2}\frac{1}{V} } \, dV$

a=241.33

b=30780

After performing integration we get work done on the system is

W=12.62 kJ/mol

(b) for Z = 1 + B' P +C' P^2 = PV/RT by performing differential we get

dV=RT(-1/p^2+0+C')dP

Hence work done on the system is

$W=-\int\limits^a_b {P(RT(-1/p^2+0+C')} \, dP$

a= $v_2\\$

b= $v_1$

by substituting given limit and P = 1 bar , P2 = 50 bar and T = 373 K we get work

W=12.59 kJ/mol

The work by differ between a and b because the conversion of constant of virial coefficients are valid only for infinite series

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life are;

1) The needles of a sewing machine

2) Electric powered reciprocating saw blade

3) The motion of a manual tire pump

Explanation:

A reciprocating motion is a motion that consists of motion of a part in an upward and downwards $(\updownarrow)$ or in a backward and forward (↔) direction repetitively

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life includes the reciprocating motion of the needles of a sewing machine and the reciprocating motion of the reciprocating saw and the motion of a manual tire pump

In a sewing machine, a crank shaft in between a wheel and the needle transforms the rotary motion of the wheel into reciprocating motion of the needle.
