Two wastewater treatment plant workers (one male and one female) are exposed to hydrogen sulfide in confined spaces in the treat

ment plant. The average temperature in the wet well is 25oC and the atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa. The recommended time weighted average air concentration for occupational exposure to hydrogen sulfide is 15 mg/m3. This concentration is based on an assumption that the individual is generally healthy and is exposed for 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, 50 weeks per year, over a working lifetime (that is from age 18 to 65 years). Assuming average body weights and inhalation rates over the working life of the individual, what is the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual? Express your answers in mg/kg-day. Is the exposure greater for the manor the woman?

Answer:

Go to explaination for the details of the answer.

Explanation:

In order to determine the lifetime (75 years) chronic daily exposure for each individual, we have to first state the terms of our equation:

CDI = Chronic Daily Intake

C= Chemical concentration

CR= Contact Rate

EFD= Exposure Frequency and Distribution

BW= Body Weight

AT = Average Time.

Having names our variables lets create the equations that will be used to derive our answers.

Please kindly check attachment for details of the answer.

Cite the phases that are present and the phase compositions for the following alloys: (a) 15 wt% Sn - 85 wt% Pb at 100 o C. (b)
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

a)  ∝  and β

   The phase compositions are :

    C_{\alpha } = 5wt% Sn - 95 wt% Pb

    C_{\beta } =  98 wt% Sn - 2wt% Pb

b)

The phase is; ∝  

The phase compositions is;   82 wt% Sn - 91.8 wt% Pb

Explanation:

a) 15 wt% Sn - 85 wt% Pb at 100⁰C.

The phases are ; ∝  and β

The phase compositions are :

C_{\alpha } = 5wt% Sn - 95 wt% Pb

C_{\beta } =  98 wt% Sn - 2wt% Pb

b) 1.25 kg of Sn and 14 kg Pb at 200⁰C

The phase is ; ∝  

The phase compositions is;  82 wt% Sn - 91.8 wt% Pb

Csn = 1.25 * 100 / 1.25 + 14 = 8.2 wt%

Cpb = 14 * 100 / 1.25 + 14 = 91.8 wt%

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

square cross section. The bar is made of a 7075-T6 aluminum alloy which has a yield strength of 500 MPa, a tensile strength of 575 MPa, and a fracture toughness of 27.5 MPaâm.

Required:

a. What is the nominal maximum tensile stress on the bar?

b. If there were an initial 1.2 mm deep surface crack on the right surface of the bar, what would the critical stress needed to cause instantaneous fast fracture of the bar be?

Find the current Lx in the figure
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{8}  +  \frac{1}{2}   \\ 1.6 + 1.4 = 3 \\  \frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{9}   \\ 2.25 + 2 = 4.25 \: ohm

R total = 4.25 ohm

I total = Vt/Rt

I total= 17/4.25= 4 A

Ix= 600 mA

\frac{9}{9 + 3}  \times 4 = 3\\   \frac{2}{2 + 8} \times 3 = 0.6a \\  = 0.6 \: milli \: amper
