A sewage lagoon that has a surface area of 10 ha and a depth of 1 m is receiving 8,640 m^3 /d of sewage containing 100 mg/L of b

iodegradable contaminant. At steady state, the effluent from the lagoon must not exceed 20 mg/L of biodegradable contaminant. Assuming the lagoon is well mixed and that there are no losses or gains of water in the lagoon other than the sewage input, what biodegradation reaction rate coefficient (d^-1) must be achieved for a first-order reaction?

Answer: Coefficient= 0.35 per day

Explanation:

To find the bio degradation reaction rate coefficient, we have

k= \frac{(Cin)(Qin)-(Cout)(Qout)}{(Clagoon)V}

Here, the C lagoon= 20 mg/L

Q in= Q out= 8640 m³/d

C in= 100 mg/L

C out= 20 mg/L

V= 10 ha* 1* 10

V= 10⁵ m³

So, k= \frac{8640*100-8640*20}{20*10^5}

k= 0.35 per day

Compare electromagnets and solenoids
natta225 [31]

An electromagnet is a made coil associated with a ferromagnetic core. This way, the strength of the magnet is controlled by the input current. A solenoid is a simple shape used in magnetostatics or magnetics. ... A solenoid is a cylindrical coil of wire whose diameter is small compared to its length.

Suppose there are 76 packets entering a queue at the same time. Each packet is of size 5 MiB. The link transmission rate is 2.1
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

938.7 milliseconds

Explanation:

Since the transmission rate is in bits, we will need to convert the packet size to Bits.

1 bytes = 8 bits

1 MiB = 2^20 bytes = 8 × 2^20 bits

5 MiB = 5 × 8 × 2^20 bits.

The formula for queueing delay of <em>n-th</em> packet is :  (n - 1) × L/R

where L :  packet size = 5 × 8 × 2^20 bits, n: packet number = 48 and R : transmission rate =  2.1 Gbps = 2.1 × 10^9 bits per second.

Therefore queueing delay for 48th packet = ( (48-1) ×5 × 8 × 2^20)/2.1 × 10^9

queueing delay for 48th packet = (47 ×40× 2^20)/2.1 × 10^9

queueing delay for 48th packet = 0.938725181 seconds

queueing delay for 48th packet = 938.725181 milliseconds = 938.7 milliseconds

Answer: a. 0.4667

b. 0.4667 and C 0.0667

Explanation:

Given Data:

N = population size (10)

n = random selection (2)

r = number of observations = 7

Therefore

f(y) = ( r/y ) ( N - r / n - y ) / ( N /n )

When y = 1

f(1) = ( 7/1 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -1 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 2

f(2) = ( 7/2 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -2 ) / ( 10/2 )

= 7 / 15

= 0.4667

When y = 0

f(0) = ( 7/0 ) ( 10 - 7 / 2 -0) / ( 10/2 )

= 1 / 15

= 0.0667
