. A storm sewer is carrying snow melt containing 1.200 g/L of sodium chloride into a small stream. The stream has a naturally oc

curring sodium chloride concentration of 20 mg/L. If the storm sewer flow rate is 2,000 L/min and the stream flow rate is 2.0 m3 /s, what is the concentration of salt in the stream after the discharge point? Assume that the sewer flow and the stream flow are completely mixed, that the salt is a conservative substance (it does not react), and that the system is at steady state.

Answer:

Explanation:

In the steady state total volume going out will be equal to total volume coming in , and

total salt coming in = total salt going out

Total volume coming in per minute = 2000 + 2 x 10³ x 60

= 122000 L .

Total salt coming in per minute = 1200 x 2000 + 20  x 2 x 10³ x 60

= 2400000 + 2400000 mg

= 4800000 mg

volume of water going out per minute = 122000 L

Total salt going out  per minute = 4800000 mg

concentration of water going out = 4800000 / 122000

= 39.344 mg / L

An LED camping headlamp can run for 18 hours, powered by three AAA batteries. The batteries each have a capacity of 1000 mAh, an
KIM [24]

Answer:

a) the power consumption of the LEDs is 0.25 watt

b) the LEDs drew 0.0555 Amp current

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Three AAA Batteries;

<---- 1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v ------1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v --------1000mAh [ + -] 1.5 v------

so V_total = 3 × 1.5 = 4.5V

a) the power consumption of the LEDs

I_battery = 1000 mAh / 18hrs    { for 18 hrs}

I_battery = 1/18 Amp    { delivery by battery}

so consumption by led = I × V_total

we substitute

⇒ 1/18 × 4.5

P = 0.25 watt

Therefore the power consumption of the LEDs is 0.25 watt

b) How much current do the LEDs draw

I_Draw = I_battery = 1/18 Amp = 0.0555 Amp

Therefore the LEDs drew 0.0555 Amp current

If the maximum allowable shear stress is 70 MPa, find the shaft diameter needed to transmit 40 kW when the shaft speed is 250 rp
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The diameter is 50mm

Explanation:

The answer is in two stages. At first the torque (or twisting moment) acting on the shaft and needed to transmit the power needs to be calculated. Then the diameter of the shaft can be obtained using another equation that involves the torque obtained above.

T=(P×60)/(2×pi×N)

T is the Torque

P is the the power to be transmitted by the shaft; 40kW or 40×10³W

pi=3.142

N is the speed of the shaft; 250rpm

T=(40×10³×60)/(2×3.142×250)

T=1527.689Nm

Diameter of a shaft can be obtained from the formula

T=(pi × SS ×d³)/16

Where

SS is the allowable shear stress; 70MPa or 70×10⁶Pa

d is the diameter of the shaft

Making d the subject of the formula

d= cubroot[(T×16)/(pi×SS)]

d=cubroot[(1527.689×16)/(3.142×70×10⁶)]

d=0.04808m or 48.1mm approx 50mm

Explain the following statement: In a windowless proportional counter, the output pulse height from an alpha particle source wil
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer / Explanation:

Regarding α and β Particles in Windowless Counter, the range of α particles is lower than β particles. Alpha particles typically have range less than the dimensions of the gas chamber so that proportional  counters are able to easily record. Hence,  with almost 100% efficiency, each particle which enters the so called active volume.

Then, since the pulse height spectra depends on the number of ion pairs which have formed,  an aplha particle with higher energy creates more ion pairs in the chamber.  However, beta particle range usually exceeds the dimensions of the chamber and therefore  most of the betas hit the walls where they deposit energy. Then, fewer ion pairs are formed  because very few β’s give their energy to the bulk gas.

A low-temperature physicist wishes to publish his experimental result that the heat capacity of a nonmagnetic dielectric materia
tatiyna

Answer:

Yes, this because the specific heat does not violate the third law of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

The third law of thermodynamic is usually used for a closed system to relate the thermodynamic properties of the system at equilibrium conditions. For this law, a body that exists at a temperature of 0 K will cease to move or stop moving. It can be inferred that heat capacity at (T = 0 K) is equivalent to 0. Therefore, the equation is valid for the given temperature range.
