Zinaida [17]3 years ago

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In statistics, mutual exclusivity is a term used to describe two or more incidents or events that are incapable of coinciding. Furthermore, in probability logic and theory, one can classify an event or set of events as being collectively exhaustive if at least the occurrence of one event is inevitable due to the fact that they the events include all possible outcomes.

Hence Event A and Event B are mutually exclusive because its either the survey respondents are less than 40 years or they are 40 years and above. They both cannot happen at the same time, and they are collectively exhaustive because they are a range of the possible outcomes for age.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

2. 0-1 km shear value: taking winds at 1000mb and 850 mb

15 kts south easterly and 50 kts southerly

Vector difference 135/15 and 180/50 will be 170/61 or southerly 61 kts

3. 0-6 km shear value: taking winds at 1000 mb and 500 mb

15 kts south easterly and 40 kts westerly

Vector difference 135/15 and 270/40 will be 281/51 kts

I have a stream with three components, A, B, and C, coming from another process. The stream is 50 % A, and the balance is equal
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

X_{A} = \frac{N_{Ao}-N_{A}}{N_{Ao}}

Nₐ₀-Nₐ = 1.33

Nₐ₀ = 2.5

Conversion X = 1.33/2.5 = <u>0.533</u>

Explanation:

A + 2B + 4C ⇒ 2X + 3Y

Given a stream containing 50% A, 25% B and 25% C, to get the limiting reactant, lets take a simple basis

Say stream is 10 moles, this give

A = 5moles

B = 2.5mole

C = 2.5moles

from the balanced equation above,

1mole of A ⇒ 4moles of C

∴ 5moles of A ⇒ (5x4)/1 ⇒ 20moles of C

also;

2mole of B ⇒ 4moles of C

∴ 2.5moles of B ⇒ (2.5x4)/2 ⇒ 5moles of C

so clearly from above reactant C is the limiting reactant.

<em>Note: To get conversion of a process, we must use the limiting reactant. this is because ones it is used up, the reaction comes to an end</em>

<em></em>

Formula to obtain conversion is:

Conversion = (Amount of A used up)/(Amount of A fed into the system)

X_{A} = \frac{N_{Ao}-N_{A}}{N_{Ao}}

where, Nₐ₀-Nₐ = is the amount in moles of A used up

            Nₐ₀ = amount in moles of A fed into the system

The next question is what mole of reactant C will give 0.1mole fraction of Y

Recall our basis = 10moles

<em>from conservation of mass law</em>, 10mole of product must come out which 0.1 moles fraction is Y

therefore amount Y in the product is = 0.1x10 = 1mole

if  3moles of Y ⇒ 4mole of C

∴ 1mole of Y ⇒ (1x4)/3 ⇒ 1.33moles of C

calculating the conversion of limiting reactant C that will give 0.1mole fraction of Y

Nₐ₀-Nₐ = 1.33

Nₐ₀ = 2.5

Conversion X = 1.33/2.5 = <u>0.533</u>

Two balanced Y-connected loads in parallel, one drawing 15kW at 0.6 power factor lagging and the other drawing 10kVA at 0.8 powe
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) attached below

(b) pf_{C}=0.85 lagging

(c) I_{C} =32.37 A

(d) X_{C} =49.37 Ω

(e) I_{cap} =9.72 A and I_{line} =27.66 A

Explanation:

Given data:

P_{1}=15 kW

S_{2} =10 kVA

pf_{1} =0.6 lagging

pf_{2}=0.8 leading

V=480 Volts

(a) Draw the power triangle for each load and for the combined load.

\alpha_{1}=cos^{-1} (0.6)=53.13°

\alpha_{2}=cos^{-1} (0.8)=36.86°

S_{1}=P_{1} /pf_{1} =15/0.6=25 kVA

Q_{1}=P_{1} tan(\alpha_{1} )=15*tan(53.13)=19.99 ≅ 20kVAR

P_{2} =S_{2}*pf_{2} =10*0.8=8 kW

Q_{2} =P_{2} tan(\alpha_{2} )=8*tan(-36.86)=-5.99 ≅ -6 kVAR

The negative sign means that the load 2 is providing reactive power rather than consuming  

Then the combined load will be

P_{c} =P_{1} +P_{2} =15+8=23 kW

Q_{c} =Q_{1} +Q_{2} =20-6=14 kVAR

(b) Determine the power factor of the combined load and state whether lagging or leading.

S_{c} =P_{c} +jQ_{c} =23+14j

or in the polar form

S_{c} =26.92°

pf_{C}=cos(31.32) =0.85 lagging

The relationship between Apparent power S and Current I is

S=VI^{*}

Since there is conjugate of current I therefore, the angle will become negative and hence power factor will be lagging.

(c) Determine the magnitude of the line current from the source.

Current of the combined load can be found by

I_{C} =S_{C}/\sqrt{3}*V

I_{C} =26.92*10^3/\sqrt{3}*480=32.37 A

(d) Δ-connected capacitors are now installed in parallel with the combined load. What value of capacitive reactance is needed in each leg of the A to make the source power factor unity?Give your answer in Ω

Q_{C} =3*V^2/X_{C}

X_{C} =3*V^2/Q_{C}

X_{C} =3*(480)^2/14*10^3 Ω

(e) Compute the magnitude of the current in each capacitor and the line current from the source.

Current flowing in the capacitor is  

I_{cap} =V/X_{C} =480/49.37=9.72 A

Line current flowing from the source is

I_{line} =P_{C} /3*V=23*10^3/3*480=27.66 A

A saturated 1.5 ft3 clay sample has a natural water content of 25%, shrinkage limit (SL) of 12% and a specific gravity (GS) of 2
Svetllana [295]

79 f t^{3} is the volume of the sample when the water content is 10%.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given Data:

V_{1}=100\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}

First has a natural water content of 25% = \frac{25}{100} = 0.25

Shrinkage limit, w_{1}=12 \%=\frac{12}{100}=0.12

G_{s}=2.70

We need to determine the volume of the sample when the water content is 10% (0.10). As we know,

V \propto[1+e]

\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}=\frac{1+e_{2}}{1+e_{1}}  ------> eq 1

e_{1}=\frac{w_{1} \times G_{s}}{S_{r}}

The above equation is at S_{r}=1,

e_{1}=w_{1} \times G_{s}

Applying the given values, we get

e_{1}=0.25 \times 2.70=0.675

Shrinkage limit is lowest water content

e_{2}=w_{2} \times G_{s}

Applying the given values, we get

e_{2}=0.12 \times 2.70=0.324

Applying the found values in eq 1, we get

\frac{V_{2}}{100}=\frac{1+0.324}{1+0.675}=\frac{1.324}{1.675}=0.7904

V_{2}=0.7904 \times 100=79\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}
