Answer:

Infinite slow thermodynamic process is Quasi-equilibrium process. All the thermodynamic model or equation is based on Quasi-equilibrium process. So, Quasi-equilibrium process is very important process in engineering.

Explanation:

Step1

Quasi-equilibrium process is the thermodynamic process which is infinitely slow. All the thermodynamic variables or properties are taken as uniform. Pressure or temperature is uniform throughout the process. Quasi-equilibrium process is represented by complete joint line in thermodynamics not with the dash line. So, this process has infinite equilibrium points near to each other.

Step2

All the thermodynamic analysis or equations are based on Quasi-equilibrium process. This gives estimation of heat, work, enthalpy, entropy etc. Quasi-equilibrium process gives maximum power output in power producing devices like turbine or engine. The entire thermodynamic engineering model is designed on the basis of Quasi-equilibrium process. Thus, this process is very important in terms of engineering.

Answer:

A) P(W) = 0.5

B) P(MF) = 0.3

C) P(H) = 0.6

Explanation:

We are told that there are two types of cellular phones which are handheld phones (H) that you carry and mobile phones (M) that are mounted in vehicles.

Also, Phone calls can be classified by the traveling speed of the user as fast (F) or slow (W).

Thus, the sample space is combination of types and classification we are given and it is written as;

S = {HF, HW, MF, MW}

A) Now, phones can either be fast(F) or slow(W). Thus, we can write;

P(F) + P(W) = 1

We are given P(F) = 0.5

Thus;

0.5 + P(W) = 1

P(W) = 1 - 0.5

P(W) = 0.5

B) Now, from the problem statement, a phone call can either be made with a handheld(H) or mobile(M). Thus the sample space partition is {H, M} and we can express as;

P(H ∩ F) + P(M ∩ F) = P(F)

We are given P[F] = 0.5 and P[HF] = 0.2.

P(H ∩ F) is same as P[HF]

Also, P(M ∩ F) is same as P(MF)

Thus;

0.2 + P(MF) = 0.5

P(MF) = 0.5 - 0.2

P(MF) = 0.3

C) Similarly, mobile Phone calls can either be fast or slow. It means the sample space partition is {F, W}

Thus;

P(M) = P(MW) + P(MF)

P(M) = 0.1 + 0.3

P(M) = 0.4

Now, since cellular phones can either be handheld(H) or Mobile(M), then we can say;

P(H) + P(M) = 1

P(H) + 0.4 = 1

P(H) = 1 - 0.4

P(H) = 0.6

The total solids production rate in an activated sludge aeration tank is 7240 kg/d on a dry mass basis. It is necessary to maint

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day

Explanation:

given data

mass of solid = 7240 kg/day

initial moisture content = 78%

solution

here percentage of solid will be

% of solid = 100 - initial moisture content

% of solid = 100 - 78 = 22 %

so that

mass of sludge produced = $\frac{100}{100 - P} M$ kg per day

put her value

mass of sludge produced = $\frac{100}{100 - 78} 7240$ kg

mass of sludge produced = 32909.09 kg

specific gravity of sludge = $\frac{\rho sludge}{\rho water }$

and as we know that

$\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{solid percentage}{S solid} = \frac{water percentage}{S water}$

$\frac{100}{S sludge} = \frac{22}{2.5} = \frac{78}{1}$

$S sludge$ = 1.152

so that

density of sludge = S sludge × density of water

density of sludge = 1.152 × 1000

density of sludge = 1152 kg/m³

so that

volume of biological sludge = $\frac{mass sludge produce}{\rho sludge}$

volume of biological sludge = $\frac{32909.09}{1152}$

volume of biological sludge = 28.566 m³ per day
