The two pond system is fed by a stream with flow rate 1.0 MGD (million gallons per day) and BOD (nonconservative pollutant) conc

entration of 20 mg/L. The rate of decay of BOD is 0.3/day. The volume of the first pond is 5 million gallons and the second is 3 million. Assuming complete mixing within the pond, find the BOD concentration leaving each pond.

Answer: First pond= 8.0 mg/L

second pond = 4.2 mg/L

Explanation:

Cn/Co = [ 1/ [ 1 + (k*t/n)]]

for the first pond

where Co into the first pond is 20mg/L,

Cn = 20*[ 1/ [ 1+ ((1 x 5)/0.3)]]

Cn = 8 mg/L

into the second pond we calculate the BOD leaving the pond of volume 3million liters

we have Cn = 4.2 mg/L

What is the difference between filler and electrode in Welding? Can a filler be an electrode? Can an electrode be a filler? Why?
Vlada [557]

Explanation:

<u>Filler:</u>

  Filler is the material rod is used when we are joining two material by using welding process.If thickness of work piece is more so it will become compulsory to provide some filler material for making the welding join to withstand high stresses.

<u>Electrode:</u>

  Electrode is the element which is used to complete the electric circuit in welding .Some time electrode is connected with positive terminal and some time with negative terminal ,it depends on the requirement of welding process.In Tungsten inert gas welding electrode is connected negative terminal but on the other hand Metal inert gas welding electrode is connected with positive terminal.Electrode can be consumable non-consumable depends on the condition.

Yes electrode can be work as filler material ,in Metal inert gas welding wire is used as electrode as well as filler material.In Metal inert gas welding consumable electrode is used on the other hand Tungsten inert gas welding non-consumable electrode is used.In Tungsten inert gas welding if thickness of work pieces is less than 5 mm then no need to used any filler material but if thickness is more than 5 mm then we have to use filler material.

Find a negative feedback controller with at least two tunable gains that (1) results in zero steady state error when the input i
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Gc(s) = \frac{0.1s + 0.28727}{s}

Explanation:

comparing the standard approximation with the plot attached we can tune the PI gains so that the desired response is obtained. this is because the time requirement of the setting is met while the %OS requirement is not achieved instead a 12% OS is seen from the plot.

attached is the detailed solution and the plot in Matlab

A square-thread power screw is used to raise or lower the basketball board in a gym, the weight of which is W = 100kg. See the f
KIM [24]

Answer:

power = 49.95 W

and it is self locking screw

Explanation:

given data

weight W = 100 kg = 1000 N

diameter d = 20mm

pitch p = 2mm

friction coefficient of steel f = 0.1

Gravity constant is g = 10 N/kg

solution

we know T is

T = w tan(α + φ ) \frac{dm}{2}     ...................1

here dm is = do - 0.5 P

dm = 20 - 1

dm = 19 mm

and

tan(α) = \frac{L}{\pi dm}      ...............2

here lead L = n × p

so tan(α) = \frac{2\times 2}{\pi 19}

α = 3.83°  

and

f = 0.1

so tanφ = 0.1

so that φ = 5.71°

and  now we will put all value in equation 1 we get

T = 1000 × tan(3.83 + 5.71 ) \frac{19\times 10^{-3}}{2}  

T = 1.59 Nm

so

power = \frac{2\pi N \ T }{60}     .................3

put here value

power = \frac{2\pi \times 300\times 1.59}{60}

power = 49.95 W

and

as φ > α

so it is self locking screw

What are the advantages of triggering circuit<br> for thyrestors?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

For most applications, it is simple, dependable, efficient, and straightforward to apply - a simple trigger signal may be provided, with appropriate processing if necessary. This implies that an appropriate trigger signal may be generated using other electrical circuits and then applied to the SCR.
