4. Design an aerated grit chamber installation (2 tanks in parallel) for an average flowrate of 0.3 m3/s and a peak flowrate of

1.0 m3/s. The average depth is 3 m, the width-to-depth ratio is 1.5:1, and the detention time at peak flow is 3.5 min. The aeration rate is 0.4 m3/min per m of the tank length. Determine the dimensions of the grit chambers and the total air required

Answer

given,

average flow rate = 0.3 m³/s

peak flow rate = 1 m³/s

width to depth ratio = 1.5 : 1

detention time = 3.5 min

average depth = 3 m

aeration rate = 0.4 m³/min/m

dimensions of grit chamber = ?

volume of grit chamber = \dfrac{1 \times 3.5 \times 60}{2}

                                       = 105 m³

average depth = 3 m

width-to-depth ratio = 1.5:1,

width = 1.5 × 3 = 4.5 m

length of the grit chamber = \dfrac{105}{3\times 4.5}

                                            = 7.78 m

increase length by 20% to account for inlet and outlet of the tank

length = 1.2 × 7.78 = 9.34 m

dimension of grit chamber = 9.34 m × 4.5 m × 3 m

air required = aeration rate × length

                    = 0.4 m³/min /m × 9.34

                    = 3.736 m³/min

Two campers dock a canoe. One camper has a mass of 100.0 kg and moves forward at 3.0 m/s as he leaves the canoe to step onto the
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The combined speed of camper and canoe is 1.71 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of camper 1, m = 100 kg

Speed of camper 1, v = 3 m/s

The combined mass of another camper and canoe is, M = 175 kg

We need to find the combined speed of camper and canoe. According to the conservation of linear momentum, the momentum of first camper is equal to linear momentum of the canoe and the second camper.

mv=MV\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{M}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 3}{175}\\\\V=1.71\ m/s

So, the combined speed of camper and canoe is 1.71 m/s.

Select the option that best summarizes the reason for the use of position-time graphs when studying physical science. (1 point)
Sedaia [141]

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

Velocity is a vector quantity that tells the distance an object has traveled over a period of time.

Displacement is a vector quality showing total length of an area traveled by a particular object.

Imagine a time-position graph where the velocity of an object is constant. What will be observed on the graph concerning the slope of the line segment as well as the velocity of the object?

The slope of the line is equal to zero and the object will be stationary.

The position-time graphs show the relationship between the position of an object (shown on the y-axis) and the time (shown on the x-axis) to show velocity.
