Wet sugar that contains 20 wt-% water is sent through a dryer in which 75 % of the water is removed. (a.) Taking a basis of 100

kg feed, calculate the mass fraction of sugar in the product that leaves the dryer. (b.) Calculate the ratio (kg removed/kg wet sugar leaving the dryer)

Answer:

The mass fraction of sugar that leaves the dryer is 94%wt.

Explanation:

If the sugar contains 20%wt of water, for every 100kg of feed we have 80 kg of sugar and 20 kg of water.

The dryer will remove 75% of the water present in the feed. This equals to:

<em>W_removed=0.75*0.20*100=15 kg of water.</em>

<em />

Then, the output is 80 kg of sugar with 5 kg of water. That adds a total of 85 kgs.

Then, the mass fraction of sugar that leaves the dryer is:

<em>m_s=80/85=0.94</em>

The mass fraction of sugar that leaves the dryer is 94%wt.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

v_1  = 3.5 \ m/s

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the SUV is  = 2140 kg

moment of inertia about G , i.e I_G = 875 kg.m²

We know from the conservation of angular momentum that:

H_1= H_2

mv_1 *0.765 = [I+m(0.765^2+0.895^2)] \omega_2

2140v_1*0.765 = [875+2140(0.765^2+0.895^2)] \omega_2

1637.1 v_1 = 3841.575 \omega_2

\omega_2 = \frac{1637.1 v_1}{3841.575}

\omega _2 = 0.4626 \ v_1

From the conservation of energy as well;we have :

T_2 +V_{2  \to 3} = T_3 \\ \\ \\  \frac{1}{2} I_A \omega_2^2 - mgh =0

[\frac{1}{2} [875+2140(0.765^2+0.895^2)](0.4262 \ v_1)^2 -2140(9.81)[\sqrt{0.76^2+0.895^2} -0.765]] =0

706.93 \ v_1^2 - 8657.49 =0

706.93 \ v_1^2  = 8657.49

v_1^2  =  \frac{8657.49}{706.93 }

v_1 ^2 =  12.25

v_1  = \sqrt{ 12.25

v_1  = 3.5 \ m/s

Since the aluminum bar is not an isolated system, the second law of thermodynamics cannot be applied to the bar alone. Rather, i
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

ΔS total ≥ 0 (ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings)

Explanation:

Assuming that the entropy change in the aluminium bar is due to heat exchange with the surroundings ( the lake) , then the entropy change of the aluminium bar is, according to the second law of thermodynamics, :

ΔS al ≥ ∫dQ/T

if the heat transfer is carried out reversibly

ΔS al =∫dQ/T  

in the surroundings

ΔS surr ≥ -∫dQ/T = -ΔS al → ΔS surr ≥ -ΔS al = - (-1238 J/K) = 1238 J/K

the total entropy change will be

ΔS total = ΔS al + ΔS surr

ΔS total ≥ ΔS al + (-ΔS al) =

ΔS total ≥ 0

the total entropy change will be ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings

Why are not all<br>materials conductive<br>to electricity​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

In conductive materials, the outer electrons in each atom can easily come or go, and are called free electrons. In insulating materials, the outer electrons are not so free to move. All metals are electrically conductive.
