Answer: b)Its ability to penetrate skin quickly due to its very small diameter

Explanation: Carbon nano tubes(CNT) are the material widely used in the medical field due to the atomic structure of it ans also have small size. Toxicity in the carbon nano tubes is because their small sized atomic particles which can enter the skin by penetration or inhalation. But are still preferred in the medicine because having unique properties like mechanical property, chemical property,surface property etc.

Using the following data, determine the percentage retained, cumulative percentage retained, and percent passing for each sieve.

vekshin1

Solution :

<u>Sieve Size</u> (in) <u>Weight retain</u><u>(g)</u>

3 1.62

2 2.17

$1\frac{1}{2}$ 3.62

$\frac{3}{4}$ 2.27

$\frac{3}{8}$ 1.38

PAN 0.21

Given :

Sieve weight % wt. retain % cumulative % finer

size retained wt. retain

No. 4 59.5 10.225% 10.225% 89.775%

No. 8 86.5 14.865% 25.090% 74.91%

No. 16 138 23.7154% 48.8054% 51.2%

No. 30 127.8 21.91% 70.7154% 29.2850%

No. 50 97 16.6695% 87.3849% 12.62%

No. 100 66.8 11.4796% 98.92% 1.08%

Pan <u> 6.3 </u> 1.08% 100% 0%

581.9 gram

Effective size = percentage finer 10% ( $$$D_{20}$ )

0.149 mm, N 100, % finer 1.08

0.297, N 50 , % finer 12.62%

x , 10%

$y-1.08 = \frac{12.62 - 1.08}{0.297 - 0.149}(x-0.149)$

$(10-1.08) \times \frac{0.297 - 0.149}{12.62 - 1.08}+ 0.149=x$

x = 0.2634 mm

Effective size, $D_{10} = 0.2643 \ mm$

Now, N 16 (1.19 mm) , 51.2%

N 8 (2.38 mm) , 74.91%

x, 60%

$60-51.2 = \frac{74.91-51.2}{2.38-1.19}(x-1.19)$

x = 1.6317 mm

$\therefore D_{60} = 1.6317 \ mm$

Uniformity co-efficient = $\frac{D_{60}}{D_{10}}$

$Cu= \frac{1.6317}{0.2643}$

Cu = 6.17

Now, fineness modulus = $\frac{\Sigma \text{\ cumulative retain on all sieve }}{100}$

$=\frac{\Sigma (10.225+25.09+48.8054+70.7165+87.39+98.92+100)}{100}$

= 4.41

which lies between No. 4 and No. 5 sieve [4.76 to 4.00]

So, fineness modulus = 4.38 mm

one number is 11 more than another number. find the two number if three times the larger number exceeds four times the smaller n

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

a = 40

b = 29

Explanation:

Give a place holder for the numbers that we don't know.

Lets call the two numbers a and b.

From the given info, we can write an expression and solve it:

"one number is 11 more than another number"

a = 11 + b

from this, we know that a > b.

''three times the larger number exceeds four times the smaller number by 4"

3a = 4b + 4

Now we have 2 equations, we can use them to solve using whatever method you want.

a = 11 + b

3a = 4b + 4

I will be using matrices RREF to solve for this.

a - b = 11

3a - 4b = 4

$\begin{bmatrix}1 & -1 & 11\\3 & -4 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$

$\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & 40\\0 & 1 & 29 \end{bmatrix}$

a = 40

b = 29

fgiga [73]

Answer: 1.137*10^7 Btu/h.

Explanation:

Given data:

Efficiency of the plant = 4.5percent

Net power output of the plant = 150kw

Solution:

The required collection rate

QH = W/n

= 150/0.045 * 0.94782/ 1 /60 */60 Btu/h.

= 3333.333 *3412.152Btu/h.

= 11373840 Btu/h

= 1.137*10^7 Btu/h.

For a body moving with simple harmonic motion state the equations to represent: i) Velocity ii) Acceleration iii) Periodic Time

max2010maxim [7]

Answer with Explanation:

The general equation of simple harmonic motion is

$x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\phi)$

where,

A is the amplitude of motion

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion

$\phi$ is known as initial phase

part 1)

Now by definition of velocity we have

$v=\frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\therefore v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(Asin(\omega t+\phi )\\\\v(t)=A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )$

part 2)

Now by definition of acceleration we have

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\\\\therefore a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )\\\\a(t)=-A\omega ^{2}sin(\omega t+\phi )$

part 3)

The angular frequency is related to Time period 'T' as $T =\frac{2\pi }{\omega }$

where

$\omega$ is the angular frequency of the motion of the particle.

Part 4) The acceleration and velocities are plotted below

since the maximum value that the sin(x) and cos(x) can achieve in their respective domains equals 1 thus the maximum value of acceleration and velocity is $A\omega ^{2}$ and $A\omega$ respectively.
