1. Sewage-treatment plant, a large concrete tank initially contains 440,000 liters liquid and 10,000 kg fine suspended solids. T

o flush this material out of the tank, water is pumped into the vessel at a rate of 40,000 liter/h. Liquid containing solids leaves at the same rate. Estimate the concentration of suspended solids in the tank at the end of 5 h.

Answer:

Concentration = 10.33 kg/m³

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of solids; 10,000 kg

Volume; V = 440,000 L = 440 m³

Rate at which water is pumped out = 40,000 liter/h

Thus, at the end of 5 hours we amount of water that has been replaced with fresh water is = 40,000 liter/h x 5 hours = 200,000 L = 200 m³

Now, since the tank is perfectly mixed, therefore we can calculate a ratio of fresh water to sewage water as;

200m³/440m³ = 5/11

Thus, the amount left will be calculated by multiplying that ratio by the amount of solids;

Thus,

Amount left; = 10000 x (5/11) = 4545 kg

The concentration would be calculated by:

Concentration = amount left/initial volume

Thus,

Concentration = 4545/440 = 10.3 kg/m³

Answer:The answer is Potassium!

Explanation: This is true because each label should tell you about the available amount of a certain element. The standard order is Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium. They are referred to by their standard abbreviations in the periodic table. One problem with fertilizer labels are that they are only required to disclose the amounts of macronutrients (or Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium.)

Two identical billiard balls can move freely on a horizontal table. Ball a has a velocity V0 and hits balls B, which is at rest,
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Velocity of ball B after impact is 0.6364v_0 and ball A is 0.711v_0

Explanation:

v_0 = Initial velocity of ball A

v_A=v_0\cos45^{\circ}

v_B = Initial velocity of ball B = 0

(v_A)_n' = Final velocity of ball A

v_B' = Final velocity of ball B

e = Coefficient of restitution = 0.8

From the conservation of momentum along the normal we have

mv_A+mv_B=m(v_A)_n'+mv_B'\\\Rightarrow v_0\cos45^{\circ}+0=(v_A)_n'+v_B'\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_n'+v_B'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0

Coefficient of restitution is given by

e=\dfrac{v_B'-(v_A)_n'}{v_A-v_B}\\\Rightarrow 0.8=\dfrac{v_B'-(v_A)_n'}{v_0\cos45^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow v_B'-(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{0.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0

(v_A)_n'+v_B'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0

v_B'-(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{0.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0

Adding the above two equations we get

2v_B'=\dfrac{1.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0\\\Rightarrow v_B'=\dfrac{0.9}{\sqrt{2}}v_0

\boldsymbol{\therefore v_B'=0.6364v_0}

(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0-0.6364v_0\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_n'=0.07071v_0

From the conservation of momentum along the plane of contact we have

(v_A)_t'=(v_A)_t=v_0\sin45^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_t'=\dfrac{v_0}{\sqrt{2}}

v_A'=\sqrt{(v_A)_t'^2+(v_A)_n'^2}\\\Rightarrow v_A'=\sqrt{(\dfrac{v_0}{\sqrt{2}})^2+(0.07071v_0)^2}\\\Rightarrow \boldsymbol{v_A'=0.711v_0}

Velocity of ball B after impact is 0.6364v_0 and ball A is 0.711v_0.

Which of the following is/are FALSE about refining aluminum from the ore state (mark all that apply) a)- A blast furnace is used
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The options a)- A blast furnace is used and d)-Coke is used to produce the heat are FALSE.

Explanation:

Aluminium is a chemical element and the most abundant metal present in the Earth's crust. An aluminium ore is called bauxite. Aluminium is extracted from its ore by the process of electrolysis, called the Hall–Héroult process. The extraction of aluminium is an expensive process as it requires large amount of electricity. The bauxite is purified to produce aluminium oxide. Then, aluminium is extracted from the aluminium oxide.

<u>Therefore, the refining of aluminum from its ore does not involve the use of a blast furnace and coke to produce heat.</u>
