Complete the following sentence.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Everything is explained below in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

<em>a) TMDL stands for = Total Daily Maximum Loads</em>

TMDL is the measure of total maximum amount of pollutant allowed in the water body. TMDL is a important tool to maintain the quality of water and measure the aquatic pollution.

Whereas, the formula to calculate TMDL is as follows:

TMDL = Sum of waste load allocations (point source) + Sum of load allocations (non point sources and background) + Margin of Safety

<em>b) Dead Zones :</em>

Dead zones are zones which are termed as hypoxic which are low in oxygen because of the extreme aquatic pollution caused by human activities which in result deplete the oxygen level above the and below the oceans most required by the marine life. In addition, dead zones are those areas where oxygen is low and life in danger is high comparatively to other areas of oceans.

The main cause of that dead zones is because of eutrophication which means adding dangerous chemical nutrients in the water in exceeding amounts.

<em>c) Why Ammonia-nitrogen is detrimental to waterbodies: </em>

1. Ammonia nitrogen is a very toxic pollutant often found in landfills and sewage and waste products.

2. Ammonia nitrogen reduces the ability of water to disinfect its inhabitants and it reduces the purity. Furthermore, it changes the smell of the water and pollutes it.

3. Last but not the least, if you increase the concentration of ammonia nitrogen, the dissolved oxygen rate will be decreased and it has a inverse relation which is very dangerous to marine life underwater.

<em>d) Streeter-Phelps DO curve:</em>

Please refer to the attachment, I have attached the curve.

This curve is used to evaluate the dissolved oxygen in the water with varying distance.

It can be further studied from the curve that, how much loss sewage and other pollutants can endure upon the marine life.

True or False? Early engineers used a trial-anderror approach, rather than mathematical and scientific principles when solving

yarga [219]

Answer:

<h2>True Most Especially in the field of Automotive Engineering</h2>

Explanation:

Normally, before the introduction of vehicle diagnostics when a vehicle, mostly automobile/car break down, one could be the vehicle mechanic would only suspect one or two related faults based on the present working condition of the car, the mechanic would perform some trial and error before he could fix the car.

But in recent times, the introduction of vehicle diagnostics devices and software has changed the order as vehicles can be connected to a computer that will scan and tell what the problem is before a possible fix.

. Two rods, with masses MA and MB having a coefficient of restitution, e, move

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

a) $V_A = \frac{(M_A - eM_B)U_A + M_BU_B(1+e)}{M_A + M_B}$

$V_B = \frac{M_AU_A(1+e) + (M_B - eM_A)U_B}{M_A + M_B}$

b) $U_A = 3.66 m/s$

$V_B = 4.32 m/s$

c) Impulse = 0 kg m/s²

d) percent decrease in kinetic energy = 47.85%

Explanation:

Let $U_A$ be the initial velocity of rod A

Let $U_B$ be the initial velocity of rod B

Let $V_A$ be the final velocity of rod A

Let $V_B$ be the final velocity of rod B

Using the principle of conservation of momentum:

$M_AU_A + M_BU_B = M_AV_A + M_BV_B$ ............(1)

Coefficient of restitution, $e = \frac{V_B - V_A}{U_A - U_B}$

$V_A = V_B - e(U_A - U_B)$ ........................(2)

Substitute equation (2) into equation (1)

$M_AU_A + M_BU_B = M_A(V_B - e(U_A - U_B)) + M_BV_B$ ..............(3)

Solving for $V_B$ in equation (3) above:

$V_B = \frac{M_AU_A(1+e) + (M_B - eM_A)U_B}{M_A + M_B}$ ....................(4)

From equation (2):

$V_B = V_A + e(U_A -U_B)$ ......(5)

Substitute equation (5) into (1)

$M_AU_A + M_BU_B = M_AV_A + M_B(V_A + e(U_A -U_B))$ ..........(6)

Solving for $V_A$ in equation (6) above:

$V_A = \frac{(M_A - eM_B)U_A + M_BU_B(1+e)}{M_A + M_B}$ .........(7)

b)

$M_A = 2 kg\\M_B = 1 kg\\U_B = -3 m/s( negative x-axis)\\e = 0.65\\U_A = ?$

Rod A is said to be at rest after the impact, $V_A = 0 m/s$

Substitute these parameters into equation (7)

$0 = \frac{(2 - 0.65*1)U_A - (1*3)(1+0.65)}{2+1}\\U_A = 3.66 m/s$

To calculate the final velocity, $V_B$ , substitute the given parameters into (4):

$V_B = \frac{(2*3.66)(1+0.65) - (1 - (0.65*2))*3}{2+1}\\V_B = 4.32 m/s$

c) Impulse, $I = M_AV_A + M_BV_B - (M_AU_A + M_BU_B)$

$I = (2*0) + (1*4.32) - ((2*3.66) + (1*-3))$

I = 0 $kg m/s^2$

d) % $\triangle KE = \frac{(0.5 M_A V_A^2 + 0.5 M_B V_B^2) - ( 0.5 M_A U_A^2 + 0.5 M_B U_B^2)}{0.5 M_A U_A^2 + 0.5 M_B U_B^2} * 100\%$

% $\triangle KE = \frac{((0.5*2*0) + (0.5 *1*4.32^2)) - ( (0.5 *2*3.66^2) + 0.5*1*(-3)^2))}{ (0.5 *2*3.66^2) + 0.5*1*(-3)^2)} * 100\%$

% $\triangle KE = -47.85 \%$

Steam enters an adiabatic turbine at 10MPa and 500 C and leaves at 10 kPa with a quality of 90%. Neglecting the changes in kinet

Amanda [17]

Answer:

flow ( m ) = 4.852 kg/s

Explanation:

Given:

- Inlet of Turbine

P_1 = 10 MPa

T_1 = 500 C

- Outlet of Turbine

P_2 = 10 KPa

x = 0.9

- Power output of Turbine W_out = 5 MW

Find:

Determine the mass ow rate required

Solution:

- Use steam Table A.4 to determine specific enthalpy for inlet conditions:

P_1 = 10 MPa

T_1 = 500 C ---------- > h_1 = 3375.1 KJ/kg

- Use steam Table A.6 to determine specific enthalpy for outlet conditions:

P_2 = 10 KPa -------------> h_f = 191.81 KJ/kg

x = 0.9 -------------> h_fg = 2392.1 KJ/kg

h_2 = h_f + x*h_fg

h_2 = 191.81 + 0.9*2392.1 = 2344.7 KJ/kg

- The work produced by the turbine W_out is given by first Law of thermodynamics:

W_out = flow(m) * ( h_1 - h_2 )

flow ( m ) = W_out / ( h_1 - h_2 )

- Plug in values:

flow ( m ) = 5*10^3 / ( 3375.1 - 2344.7 )

flow ( m ) = 4.852 kg/s
