The purification of hydrogen gas is possible by diffusion through a thin palladium sheet. Calculate the number of kilograms of h

ydrogen that pass per hour (in kg/h) through a 3.1-mm thick sheet of palladium having an area of 0.25 m2 at 500°C. Assume a diffusion coefficient of 6.0 x 10-8 m2/s, that the concentrations at the high- and low-pressure sides of the plate are 3.0 and 0.64 kg/m3 (kilogram of hydrogen per cubic meter of palladium), and that steady-state conditions have been attained.

Answer:

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h

Explanation:

We have to combine the following formula to find the mass yield:

M=JAt

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

The diffusion coefficient : D=6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2}

The area : A=0.25 m^{2}

Time : t=3600 s/h

ΔC: (0.64-3.0)kg/m^{3}

Δx: 3.1*10^{-3}m

Now substitute the  values

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

M=-(6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2})(0.25 m^{2})(3600 s/h)[(0.64-3.0kg/m^{3})(3.1*10^{-3}m)]

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h

Given a force of 72 lbs at a distance of 15 ft, calculate the moment produced.​
Elis [28]

Answer:

1425.78 N.m

Explanation:

Moments of force is calculated as ;

Moments= Force * distance

M= F*d

The S.I unit for moment of force is Newton-meter (N.m)

Given in the question;

Force = 72 lbs

1 pound = 4.45 N

72 lbs = 4.45 * 72=320.4 N

Distance= 15 ft

1ft= 0.3048 m

15 ft = 15*0.3048 = 4.57 m

d= 4.57 m

M= F*d

M=320.4*4.57 =1425.78 N.m

A single fixed pulley is used to lift a load of 400N by the application of an effort of 480N in 10s through a vertical height of
Allushta [10]

Answer:

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %

Explanation:

Given;

load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N

effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N

distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m

(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);

since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.

V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load

V.R = 5/5 = 1

(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);

M.A = L/E

M.A = 400 / 480

M.A = 0.833

(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%

A westbound section of freeway currently has three 12-ft wide lanes, a 6-ft right shoulder, and no ramps within 3 miles upstream
Tresset [83]

Answer:

•Estimated density = 39.685Pc/mi/en

•Level of service, LOS frequency = LOSC

Explanation:

We are given:

•Freeway current lane width,B = 12ft

• freeway current shoulder width,b = 6ft

• percentage of heavy vehicle, Ptb = 10℅

• peak hour factor, PHF = 0.9

Let's consider,

•Number of lanes N = 4

• flow of traffic V = 7500vph

• percentage of Rv = 0, therefore the freeflow speed in freeway FFS = 70mph

• cars equivalent for recreational purpose Er= 2

•cars to be used for trucks and busses Etb= 2.5

Let's first calculate for the heavy adjustment factor.

We have:

F_H_v = \frac{1}{1+P_t_b(E_t_b-1)+Pr(Er-1)}

Substituting figures in the equation we have:

= \frac{1}{1+0.1(2.5-1)+0(2-1)}

= 0.75

Let's now calculate equivalent flow rate of the car using:

Vp = \frac{V}{(P_H_F)*N)*(F_H_v)*(F_p)}

= \frac{7500}{0.9*4*0.75*1}

= 2777.7 pc/h/en

Calculating for traffic density, we have:

D = \frac{Vp}{FFS}

D = \frac{2777.7}{70}

D = 39.685 Pc/mi/en

Using the table for LOS criteria of basic frequency segment, the level of service LOS of frequency is LOSC

Look at the home page of the Internet Society (www.internetsociety.org) and read about one of the designers of the original ARPA
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

<u>ARPANET is the direct precedent for the Internet, a network that became operational in October 1969 after several years of planning. </u>

Its promoter was DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), a US government agency, dependent on the Department of Defense of that country, which still exists.

Originally, it connected research centers and academic centers to facilitate the exchange of information between them in order to promote research. Yes, being an undertaking of the Department of Defense, it is understood that weapons research also entered into this exchange of information.

It is also explained, without being without foundation, that the design of ARPANET was carried out thinking that it could withstand a nuclear attack by the USSR and, hence, probably the great resistance that the network of networks has shown in the face of major disasters and attacks.

It was the first network in which a packet communication protocol was put into use that did not require central computers, but rather was - as the current Internet is - totally decentralized.

Explanation:

<em><u> Below I present as a summary some of the most relevant aspects exposed on the requested website about the origin and authors of ARPANET:</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

1. Licklider from MIT in August 1962 thinking about the concept of a "Galactic Network". He envisioned a set of globally interconnected computers through which everyone could quickly access data and programs from anywhere. In spirit, the concept was very much like today's Internet. He became the first head of the computer research program at DARPA, and from October 1962. While at DARPA he convinced his successors at DARPA, Ivan Sutherland, Bob Taylor and MIT researcher Lawrence G. Roberts, of the importance of this network concept.

2.Leonard Kleinrock of MIT published the first article on packet-switching theory in July 1961 and the first book on the subject in 1964. Kleinrock convinced Roberts of the theoretical feasibility of communications using packets rather than circuits, That was an important step on the road to computer networking. The other key step was to get the computers to talk together. To explore this, in 1965, working with Thomas Merrill, Roberts connected the TX-2 computer in Mass. To the Q-32 in California with a low-speed phone line creating the first wide-area (albeit small) computer network built . The result of this experiment was the understanding that timeshare computers could work well together, running programs and retrieving data as needed on the remote machine, but that the circuitry switching system of the phone was totally unsuitable for the job. Kleinrock's conviction of the need to change packages was confirmed.

3.In late 1966 Roberts went to DARPA to develop the concept of a computer network and quickly developed his plan for "ARPANET", and published it in 1967. At the conference where he presented the document, there was also a document on a concept of UK packet network by Donald Davies and Roger Scantlebury of NPL. Scantlebury told Roberts about NPL's work, as well as that of Paul Baran and others at RAND. The RAND group had written a document on packet switched networks for secure voice in the military in 1964. It happened that work at MIT (1961-1967), in RAND (1962-1965) and in NPL (1964-1967) all they proceeded in parallel without any of the investigators knowing about the other work. The word "packet" was adopted from the work in NPL and the proposed line speed to be used in the ARPANET design was updated from 2.4 kbps to 50 kbps.
