Answer:

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content is 2.44.

Explanation:

Given the specific gravity at 5.0 %  binder content 2.495

Therefore

95 % mix + 5 % binder  gives S.G. = 2.495

Where the  binder is S.G. = 1, Therefore

Per 100 mass unit we have (Mx + 5)/(Vx + 5) = 2.495

(95 +5)/(Vx +5) = 2.495

2.495 × (Vx + 5) = 100

Vx =35.08 to 95

Or density of mix = Mx/Vx = 95/35.08 = 2.7081

Therefore when we have 6.5 % binder content, we get

Per 100 mass unit

93.5 Mass unit of Mx has a volume of

Mass/Density = 93.5/2.7081 = 34.526 volume units

Therefore we have

At 6.5 % binder content.

(100 mass unit)/(34.526 + 6.5) = 2.44

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content = 2.44.

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

A motor car shaft consists of a steel tube 30 mm internal diameter and 4 mm thick. The engine develops 10 kW at 2000 r.p.m. Find
tresset_1 [31]

The maximum shear stress in the tube when the power is transmitted through a 4: 1 gearing is 28.98 MPa.

<h3>What is power?</h3>

Power is the energy transferred per unit time.

Torque is find out by

P = 2πNT/60

10000 = 2π x 2000 x T / 60

T =47.74 N.m

The gear ratio Ne / Ns =4/1

Ns =2000/4 = 500

Ts =Ps x 60/(2π x 500)

Ts =190.96 N.m

Maximum shear stress τ = 16/π x (T / (d₀⁴ - d₁⁴))

τ max =T/J x D/2
where d₁ = 30mm = 0.03 m

           d₀ = 30 +(2x 4) = 38mm =0.038 m

Substitute the values into the equation, we get

τ max = 16 x 190.96 x 0.038 /π x (0.038⁴ - 0.03⁴)

τ max = 28.98 MPa.

Thus, the maximum shear stress in the tube is 28.98 MPa.
