) A brick of clay is being dried in a batch dryer using constant drying conditions. You have been asked to determine the amount

of time it will take to dry the clay from a total moisture content of 0.6 to a free moisture content of 0.08. You are given the following information: 1. Previously, the drier was able to dry a piece of clay with a total moisture content of 0.64 in 8 hours and 80% of the drying occurred with a constant rate. 2. The equilibrium moisture content is 0.1. 3. The critical free moisture content is 0.15.

Answer:

The drying time is calculated as shown

Explanation:

Data:

Let the moisture content be = 0.6

the free moisture content be = 0.08

total moisture of the clay  = 0.64

total drying time for the period = 8 hrs

then if the final dry and wet masses are calculated, it follows that

t = (X0+ Xc)/Rc) + (Xc/Rc)* ln (Xc/X)

 = 31.3 min.

Where the velocity is highest in the radial direction? Why?
posledela

Answer:

In the center and directed away from it.

Explanation:

The direction along the radius and directed away from the center is known as radial direction.

The velocity is highest in the radial direction pointing away from the center, this is because of the reason that  when the particle executes its motion in the direction that is radial, then it is not acted upon by any force that opposes the motion of the particle and thus there is no obstruction to the velocity of the particle and it is therefore, the highest in the radial direction.

A particle moving on a straight line has acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2. If s(t) is the distance fro
Vikki [24]

Given acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2, the value of s2 - s1 = 7

<h3>How to solve for the value of s2 - s1</h3>

We have

= \frac{dv}{dt} =v't = 5-3t\\\\\int\limits^a_b {v'(t)} \, dt

= \int\limits^a_b {(5-3t)} \, dt

5t - \frac{3t^2}{2} +c

v2 = 5x2 -  3x2 + c

= 10-6+c

= 4+c

s(t) = \frac{5t^2}{2} -\frac{t^3}{2} +3t + c

S2 - S1

=(5*\frac{4}{2} -\frac{8}{2} +3*2*c)-(\frac{5}{2} *1^2-\frac{1^2}{2} +3*1*c)

= 6 + 6+c - 2+3+c

12+c-5+c = 0

7 = c

What is the perimeter of 14-7 and 3-4
Goshia [24]

Answer:

If you mean two sides are 7 and two sides are 14 then you'd have 42

and for the second you'd have 14

Explanation:

7 + 7 = 14, 14 + 14 = 28, 14 + 28 = 42

3 + 3 = 6, 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 6 = 14
