An eddy current separator is to separate aluminum product from an input streamshredded MSW. The feed rate to the separator is 2,

500 kg/hr. The feed is known to contain174 kg of aluminum and 2,326 kg of reject. After operating for 1 hour, a total of 256 kg ofmaterials is collected in the product stream. On close inspection, it is found that 140 kg ofproduct is aluminum. Estimate the % recovery of aluminum product and the % purity of thealuminum produc

Answer:

<em>the % recovery of aluminum product is 80.5%</em>

<em>the % purity of the aluminum product is 54.7%</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

feed rate to separator = 2500 kg/hr

in one hour, there will be 2500 kg/hr x 1 hr = 2500 kg of material is fed into the  machine

of this 2500 kg, the feed is known to contain 174 kg of aluminium and 2326 kg of rejects.

After the separation, 256 kg  is collected in the product stream.

of this 256 kg, 140 kg is aluminium.

% recovery of aluminium will be = mass of aluminium in material collected in the product stream ÷ mass of aluminium contained in the feed material

% recovery of aluminium = 140kg/174kg x 100% = <em>80.5%</em>

% purity of the aluminium product = mass of aluminium in final product ÷ total mass of product collected in product stream

% purity of the aluminium product = 140kg/256kg

x 100% = <em>54.7%</em>

Which of the following can effect LRO?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The lunar radiation environment, allowing scientists to determine potential impacts to astronauts and other life. It also will test models on the effects of radiation and measure radiation absorption by a type of plastic that is like human tissue. The results could aid in the development of protective technologies to help keep future lunar crew members safe. CRaTER was built and developed by Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston.

If you were to plot the voltage versus the current for a given circuit, what would you expect the slope of the line to be? If no
Brut [27]

Answer:

Part 1: It would be a straight line, current will be directly proportional to the voltage.

Part 2: The current would taper off and will have negligible increase after the voltage  reaches a certain  value. Graph attached.

Explanation:

For the first part, voltage and current have a linear relationship as dictated by the Ohm's law.

V=I*R

where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance. As the Voltage increase, current is bound to increase too, given that the resistance remains constant.

In the second part, resistance is not constant. As an element heats up, it consumes more current because the free sea of electrons inside are moving more rapidly, disrupting the flow of charge. So, as the voltage increase, the current does increase, but so does the resistance. Leaving less room for the current to increase. This rise in temperature is shown in the graph attached, as current tapers.
