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.

A pin must be inserted into a collar of the same steel using an expansion fit. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the metal
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

a)  the temperature to which the pin must be cooled for assembly is T_2 = -101.89^ \ ^0}C

b) the radial pressure at room temperature after assembly is P_f = 62.8 \ MPa

c) the  safety factor in the resulting assembly = 6.4

Explanation:

Coefficient of thermal expansion \alpha = 12.3*10^{-6} \  ^0 C

Yield strength \sigma_y = 400 MPa

Modulus of elasticity (E) = 209 GPa

Room Temperature T_1 = 20°C

outer diameter of the collar D_o = 95 \ mm

inner diameter of the collarD_i = 60 \ mm

pin diameter D_p = 60.03 \ mm

Clearance c = 0.06 mm

a)

The temperature to which the pin must be cooled for assembly can be calculated by using the formula:

(D_i - c )-D_p = \alpha * D_p(T_2-T_1)

(60-0.06)-60.03=12.3*10^{-6}*60.03(T_{2}-20^{0}C)

-0.09 = 7.38369*10^{-4}(T_{2}-20^{0}C)

-0.09 = 7.38369*10^{-4}T_2  \ \ - \ \ 0.01476738

-0.09 +  0.01476738 = 7.38369*10^{-4}T_2

−0.07523262 =7.38369*10^{-4}T_2

T_2 = \frac{-0.07523262}{7.38369*10^{-4}}

T_2 = -101.89^ \ ^0}C

b)

To determine the radial pressure at room temperature after assembly ;we have:

P_f = \frac{E * (D_p-D_i)(D_o^2-D_1^2)}{D_i*D_o} \\ \\ \\  P_f = \frac{209*10^9* 0.03(95^2-60^2)}{60*95^2}  \\ \\ P_f = 62815789.47 \ Pa \\ \\ P_f = 62.8 \ MPa

c)  the safety factor of the resulting assembly is calculated as:

safety factor =  \frac{Yield \ strength }{walking \ stress}

safety factor =  \frac{400}{62.8}

safety factor = 6.4

Thus, the  safety factor in the resulting assembly = 6.4

A viscometer may be created by using a pair of closely fitting concentric cylinders and filling the gap between the cylinder wit
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The viscosity of the fluid is 6.05 Pa-s

Explanation:

The viscosity obtained from a rotating type viscometer is given by the equation

\mu =\frac{3Tt}{2\pi \omega R_o(R_o^3-R_i^3)}

where

T is the torque applied in the viscometer

't' is the thickness of gap

\omega is the angular speed of rotation

R_o,R_i are the outer and the inner raddi respectively

Since it is given that

\omega =100rpm=\frac{100\times 2\pi }{60}=10.47rad/sec

Applying the values in the above relation we get

\mu =\frac{3\times 0.021\times 0.02\times 10^{-3}}{2\pi \times 10.47\times 37.5\times 10^{-3}(37.52^3-37.5^3)\times 10^{-9}}=6.04Pa-s

When starting your vehicle, what does it mean when the ABS indicator light 1 point
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

C. The vehicle safety check indicates the ABS is functioning normally.

Explanation:

ABS, an antilock braking system, is a safe and secure slip-resistant braking system in cars and air-crafts. <u>An ABS is there to prevent wheel-locking while using brakes in vehicles</u>.

When one ignites a car, the ABS indicator will light up briefly as a part of safety check.<em> The ABS indicator light comes on for a few seconds before it turns off again. This indicates that the ABS system is functioning normally</em>. But, if the ABS indicator light remains after turning on the ignition, this indicates that there is a problem in the system.

In the given scenario, the ABS indicator is functioning properly, thus the correct answer is the third option (C).

A student proposes a complex design for a steam power plant with a high efficiency. The power plant has several turbines, pumps,
masha68 [24]

Answer:

(a). max possible efficiency = 55.62%

(b). max power output = = 133.5 MW

Explanation:

From the question we were given the Maximum temperature in the system as

Tmax = 500°C

Minimum temperature in the system Tmin = 70°C

the Heat supplied to the boiler Qb = 240000 KJ/s

we use the temperature conversion factor from °C to K

given T(K) = T (°C) + 273

⇒ Tmax = 500 + 273 = 773 K

⇒ Tmin = 70 + 273 = 343 K

(a). we are to determine the maximum possible thermal efficiency;

(Πth)max = 1 - Tmin/Tmax

(Πth)max = 1 - 343/773  = 0.5562

(Πth)max = 55.62%

(b). to determine the maximum possible power output for the plant we have;

(Πth)max = Wmax/Qb

where Wmax rep the maximum power output

(Πth)max = 0.5562

Qb = 240000

∴ Wmax = 0.5562 × 240000 = 133505.6 Kw

Wmax = 133.5 MW

cheers i hope this helps
