Rainwater was collected in water collectors at thirty different sites near an industrial basin and the amount of acidity (pH lev

el) was measured. The mean and standard deviation of the values are 4.60 and 1.10 respectively. When the pH meter was recalibrated back at the laboratory, it was found to be in error. The error can be corrected by adding 0.1 pH units to all of the values and then multiply the result by 1.2. Find the mean and standard deviation of the corrected pH measurements.

Answer:

The standard deviation of corrected pH is

5.64 , 1.32

Explanation:

To find the measurements pH given

μx = 4.60 ,  σx = 1.10

So using the measurement as a pH

μₐX + b = aμ X + b

μ1.2 x + 0.12

1.2 (4.60) + 0.12 = 5.64

σₐX +b = a σ X

σ 1.2 X + 0.12

1.2 (1.10) = 1.32

Ammonia enters the compressor of an industrial refrigeration plant at 2 bar, −10°C with a mass flow rate of 15 kg/min and is com
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

a) W=85.225 kW

b) 0.02\frac{kW}{K}

Explanation:

First, consider the energy balance for the compressor: The energy that enters to the system (W and enthalpy of the feed flow) is equal to the energy that goes out from it (Heat Q and enthalpy of the exit flow):

W+m*h_1=Q+m*h_2\\W=Q+m*(h_2-h_1)

Consider the enthalpy data from van Wylen 6th edition, Table B.2.2. According to that, h_1=h(200kPa,-10C)=1440.6\frac{kJ}{kgK},  h_2=h(1200kPa,140C)=1757.5\frac{kJ}{kgK}

So, the power input to the compressor is:

W=6kW+15\frac{kg}{min}*\frac{min}{60s}*(1757.5-1440.6)\frac{kJ}{kg}\\W=85.225kW

b) The differential entropy change dS for a reversible heat transfer dQ at a temperature T is:

dS=\frac{dQ}{T}

This equation can be integrated if the heat transfer surface temperature remains constant, which is the case, giving as a result:

S_2-S_1=\frac{Q}{T}=\frac{6kW}{300K}=0.02\frac{kW}{K}

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: colder and drier

Explanation:

Trees don’t grow well in wet climates, nor when they are cold. The wider the rings, the healthier the tree is. Since it was narrow and then wide, was bad climate and then good.

A boxer throws a punch with a force of 1,400 N that lasts 0.02 s. What is the impulse of this punch? (1 point) 28 kg⋅m/s 28 kilo
Musya8 [376]

The impulse of the boxers punch is 28 kgm/s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force by the boxer, F = 1400 N</em>
  • <em>time of force action, t = 0.02 s</em>

<em />

The impulse of the boxers punch is calculated as follows;

J = Ft

where;

  • <em>F is the applied force (N)</em>
  • <em>t is the time of force action (s)</em>

The magnitude of the impulse is calculated as follows;

J = 1400 \times 0.02 \\\\J = 28 \ kg m/s

Thus, the impulse of the boxers punch is 28 kgm/s.
