A concentric cylinder viscometer may be formed by rotating the inner member of a pair of closely fitting cylinders (see Fig). Th

e annular gap is small so that a linear velocity profile will exist in the liquid sample. Consider a viscometer with an inner cylinder of 4 in. diameter and 8 in. height, and a clearance gap width of 0.001 in., filled with castor oil at 90°F. Determine the torque required to turn the inner cylinder at 400 rpm.

Answer:

T = 52.76 ft . lbf

Explanation:

Given data:

inner diameter of cylinder 4 in

height of cylinder 8 in

gap width = 0.001 in

we know shear force is given as

F =\tau A = \tau (2\pi RH)

Where, \tau is torque acting on cylinder

\tau = \mu \frac{V}{d} = \mu \frac{ R\omega}{d}

\mu is kinematic viscosity, for castor oil at 90 degree F  = 0.259 N s/m^2

substituing all value in   shear force formula we get

F = \frac{2\pi \mu R^2\omega h}{d}

we know that

Torque, T  = force \times R

T = \frac{2\pi \mu R^3\omega h}{d}

T = \frac{2\pi (0.259\times 2.09\times 10^{-2}\times 2^3\times 400\times 8 }{10^{-3}} \times 2\pi \times \frac{1 min}{60} \times \frac{1 ft^3 }{1728 in^3}

T = 52.76 ft . lbf

What is the number N0 of 99mTc atoms that must be present to have an activity of 15mCi?
svetoff [14.1K]
Base on my research, within 2 hours you have a number of atoms which remain. 
N= N0*2^(-t/6.020 = N= N0*2^-0.33223= 07943 N0

So, the number of atoms that are being disintegrated is N0-N=N0*(1-0.79430)=0.2057 N0

It must be equal to 15 mCi = 15*3.7*10^7= 5.55*10^8 atoms 

N0= 5.55*10*8/0.2057  = 2.698*10^9 atoms

Therefore, 2.698*10^9 atoms is the number of N0

What is the net charge (overall or sum of charges) of the nucleus and what number is it equal to?
polet [3.4K]
Because the nucleus is made up of positively charged protons and neutrally charged neutrons, and no negatively charged particles, the charge of the nucleus will always be equal to the sum of the charges of its protons. A simpler way to say it is because each proton has a +1 charge, the charge of the nucleus will be the same as the number of protons in it.
