3–102 One of the common procedures in fitness programs is to determine the fat-to-muscle ratio of the body. This is based on the

principle that the muscle tissue is denser than the fat tissue, and, thus, the higher the average density of the body, the higher is the fraction of muscle tissue. The average density of the body can be determined by weighing the person in air and also while submerged in water in a tank. Treating all tissues and bones (other than fat) as muscle with an equivalent density of ???? muscle. Obtain a relation for the volume fraction of body fat xfat

Answer:

x_fat = [ 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) -  p_muscle*V ] / V*( p_fat - p_muscle )

Explanation:

Given:

- The total volume of body = V

- The average density of the body = p_avg

- The density of muscle = p_muscle

- The density of fat = p_fat

Find:

Obtain a relation for the volume fraction of body fat x_fat

Solution:

- The volume of the fat is given by:

                          V_fat = x_fat*V

- The volume of the muscle is given by:

                          V_muscle = V - V_fat

                                            = V - x_fat*V

                                            =V*( 1 - x_fat )

- We will use the conservation of mass for the body related as:

                         mass_fat + mass_muscle = Total average mass

                         p_fat*V_fat + p_muscle*V_muscle = p_avg*V

                         p_fat*x_fat*V + p_muscle*V*( 1 - x_fat ) = p_avg*V

                         p_fat*x_fat + p_muscle*( 1 - x_fat ) = p_avg

- To determine p_1 we weigh the body in air:

                         Weight reading (Wsa) = m = p_1*V

                         p_1 = Wsa / V*g

- To determine p_2 we weigh the body in water:

                         Weight reading (Wsw) = m - p_w*V= p_1*V - p_w*V

                         Weight reading (Wsw) = V*(p_1 - p_w) = V*(p_2)

                         Where, p_2 = p_1 - p_water

                         p_2 = Wsw / V

- The average density p_avg:

                         p_avg = 0.5*(p_1 + p_2)  

                         p_avg = 0.5*(Wsa / V + Wsw / V)  

                         p_avg = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V                      

- Plug in the mass equation:

                         p_fat*x_fat + p_muscle*( 1 - x_fat ) = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V

                         x_fat*( p_fat - p_muscle ) = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V - p_muscle

                   x_fat = [ 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) -  p_muscle*V ] / V*( p_fat - p_muscle )

Consider the smoothie example given in class: Write down the production function of Tutti Frutti Smoothie example given in class
mart [117]

Answer:

Production Function : TFSq = f { ingredient 1 ...... ing. i }

Increasing/ Constant/  Increasing Returns to Scale :

Output change > / = / < Input change respectively

Explanation:

Production Function is the relationship between production inputs & outputs, given technology. It denotes the maximum output that can be generated with given inputs.

Tutti Frutti Smoothie [TFS] quantity = Function of {Ingredient1.....ingredient i}

Returns to Scale represents change in output when all inputs change in same proportion.

  • Constant Returns to Scale [CRS] : Output Change = All inputs change
  • Increasing Returns to Scale [IRS] : Output Change > All inputs change
  • Negative Returns to Scale [NRS] : Output Change < All inputs change

When all inputs (ingredients) change by same proportion i.e get twice 2X :- If output of Tutti Frutti Smoothie increases by > 2X  i.e 3X - IRS.  If it increases equal ie 2X - CRS. If it increases lesser i.e 1.5X - CRS.

The temperature at the bottom of a reservoir is TL = 280 K and the surface temperature is TH = 295 K. This temperature differenc
Tanzania [10]

a) For the thermal efficiency we have

\eta_{th} = \frac{Q_{out}}{Q_{in}} = \frac{|W|}{|Q_h|}\\\eta_{th} = \frac{|W|}{|W|+|Q_2|}

With the previously values we know that

W=8kW and Q_L = 1440/6kW (convert the min to sec)

Replacing the values

\eta_{th}=\frac{8}{8+1440/6}=\frac{1}{31}\\\eta_{th}\% = 3.225\%

b) We use the formula of carnot efficiency

\eta_{th}=1-\frac{T_l}{T_h}\\\eta_{th}\% =(1-\frac{280}{295})*100\\\eta_{th}\%=5.085\%

**Note that apply the formula of carnot cycle we need to consider that there is no exchange of heat, there is no friction and the reservior are completely insulated

Evaluate (204 mm)(0.004 57 kg) / (34.6 N) to three
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

the evaluation in SI unit will be 2.69\times 10^{-5}sec^{2}

Explanation:

We have evaluate \frac{(204mm\times 0.00457kg)}{34.6N}

We know that 1 mm =10^{-3}m

So 240 mm =204\times 10^{-3}m

Newton can be written as kgm/sec^2

So \frac{(204\times 10^{-3}m)\times 0.00457kg}{34.6kgm/sec^2}=2.69\times 10^{-5}sec^{2}

So the evaluation in SI unit will be 2.69\times 10^{-5}sec^{2}
