AfilCa [17]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

McLeod gauge:

  It is used to measure very low pressure of gas.It measure gas pressure by the help of mercury(Hg).it measure absolute pressure of gas.

McLeod gauge on the principle of Boyle's law.Boyle's law state that ,at constant temperature the pressure of gas is directly proportional to its  volume.From Boyle's law

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

A sample of gas is taken from vacuum then its pressure is measured by help  Hg.

A tank with a volume of 8 m3 containing 4 m3 of 20% (by volume) NaOH solution is to be purged by adding pure water at a rate of
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The time necessary to purge 95% of the NaOH is 0.38 h

Explanation:

Given:

vfpure water(i) = 3 m³/h

vNaOH = 4 m³

xNaOH = 0.2

vfpure water(f) = 2 m³/h

pwater = 1000 kg/m³

pNaOH = 1220 kg/m³

The mass flow rate of the water is = 3 * 1000 = 3000 kg/h

The mass of NaOH in the solution is = 0.2 * 4 * 1220 = 976 kg

When the 95% of the NaOH is purged, thus the NaOH in outlet is = 0.95 * 976 = 927.2 kg

The volume of NaOH in outlet after time is = 927.2/1220 = 0.76 m³

The time required to purge the 95% of the NaOH is = 0.76/2 = 0.38 h

A farmer has 12 hectares of land on which he grows corn, wheat, and soybeans. It costs $4500 per hectare to grow corn, $6000 to
maw [93]

The number of hectares of each crop he should plant are; 250 hectares of Corn, 500 hectares of Wheat and 450 hectares of soybeans

<h3>How to solve algebra word problem?</h3>

He grows corn, wheat and soya beans on the farm of 1200 hectares. Thus;

C + W + S = 12   ----(1)

It costs $45 per hectare to grow corn, $60 to grow wheat, and $50 to grow soybeans. Thus;

45C + 60W + 50S = 63750  -----(2)

He will grow twice as many hectares of wheat as corn. Thus;

W = 2C    ------(3)

Put 2C for W in eq 1 and eq 2 to get;

C + 2C + S = 1200

3C + S = 1200     -----(4)

45C + 60(2C) + 50S = 63750

45C + 120C + 50S = 63750

165C + 50S = 63750    ------(5)

Solving eq 4 and 5 simultaneosly gives;

C = 250 and W = 500

Thus; S = 1200 - 3(250)

S = 450
