A BOD test is to be run on a sample of wastewater that has a five-day BOD of 230 mg/L. If the initial DO of a mix of distilled w

ater and wastewater is 8.0 mg/L, and the test requires a decrease in DO of at least 2.0 mg/L with at least 2.0 mg/L of DO remaining at the end of the five days, what range of dilution factors (P) would produce acceptable results? In 300 mL bottles, what range of wastewater volumes could be used?

Answer:

Distribution factor P = =38.33

V = 7.826 ml

Explanation:

given details:

BOD =230 mg/l

DO inital = 8.0mg/l

DO final = 2.0mg/l

we know

BOD = [DO inital -DO final] * distribution factor

230 = [8 - 2] D.F

Distribution factor P $= \frac{230}{6}$

Distribution factor P = =38.33

THE RANGE OF WASTE WATER VOLUME IN 300 ml bottle is

distribution factor $= \frac{300}{V}$

$V = \frac{300}{38.33}$

V = 7.826 ml

A cylindrical specimen of a hypothetical metal alloy is stressed in compression. If its original and final diameters are 30.00 a

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The original length of the specimen $l_{o} = 104.7 mm$

Explanation:

Original diameter $d_{o}$ = 30 mm

Final diameter $d_{1}$ = 30.04 mm

Change in diameter Δd = 0.04 mm

Final length $l_{1}$ = 105.20 mm

Elastic modulus E = 65.5 G pa = 65.5 × $10^{3}$ M pa

Shear modulus G = 25.4 G pa = 25.4 × $10^{3}$ M pa

We know that the relation between the shear modulus & elastic modulus is given by

$G = \frac{E}{2(1 + \mu)}$

$25.5 = \frac{65.5}{2 (1 + \mu)}$

$\mu = 0.28$

This is the value of possion's ratio.

We know that the possion's ratio is given by

$\mu = \frac{\frac{0.04}{30} }{\frac{change \ in \ length}{l_{o} } }$

${\frac{change \ in \ length}{l_{o} } = \frac{\frac{0.04}{30} }{0.28}$

${\frac{change \ in \ length}{l_{o} } =$ 0.00476

$\frac{l_{1} - l_{o} }{l_{o} } = 0.00476$

$\frac{l_{1} }{l_{o} } = 1.00476$

Final length $l_{o}$ = 105.2 m

Original length

$l_{o} = \frac{105.2}{1.00476}$

$l_{o} = 104.7 mm$

This is the original length of the specimen.

You are in charge of ordering the concrete for a basement wall concrete pour. The wall forms are all set up and ready. The wall

choli [55]

Answer:

189.15cy

Explanation:

To understand this problem we need to understand as well the form.

It is clear that there is four wall, two short and two long.

The two long are $\rightarrow 120ft5in+2(10ft)$

The two long are $\rightarrow 122ft1in=122.08ft$

The two shors are $\rightarrow 86ft4.5in = 86.375ft$

The height and the thickness are 14ft and 0.83ft respectively.

So we only calculate the Quantity of concrete,

$Q_c = [(2*122.08)+(2*86-375)]*14*0.833\\Q_c=4864.02ft^3$

That in cubic yards is equal to $180.15 (1cy=27ft^3)$

Hence, we need order 5% plus that represent with the quantity

$Q_{ordered}=1.05*180.15=189.15cy$

A 3.52 kg steel ball is tossed upward from a height of 6.93 meters above the floor with a vertical velocity of 2.99 m/s. What is

Dafna1 [17]

Answer : The final velocity of the ball is, 12.03 m/s

Explanation :

By the 3rd equation of motion,

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where,

s = distance covered by the object = 6.93 m

u = initial velocity = 2.99 m/s

v = final velocity = ?

a = acceleration = $9.8m/s^2$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final velocity of the ball.

$v^2-(2.99m/s)^2=2\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (6.93m)$

$v=12.03m/s$

Thus, the final velocity of the ball is, 12.03 m/s

A motor car shaft consists of a steel tube 30 mm internal diameter and 4 mm thick. The engine develops 10 kW at 2000 r.p.m. Find

tresset_1 [31]

The maximum shear stress in the tube when the power is transmitted through a 4: 1 gearing is 28.98 MPa.

<h3>What is power?</h3>

Power is the energy transferred per unit time.

Torque is find out by

P = 2πNT/60

10000 = 2π x 2000 x T / 60

T =47.74 N.m

The gear ratio Ne / Ns =4/1

Ns =2000/4 = 500

Ts =Ps x 60/(2π x 500)

Ts =190.96 N.m

Maximum shear stress τ = 16/π x (T / (d₀⁴ - d₁⁴))

τ max =T/J x D/2
where d₁ = 30mm = 0.03 m

d₀ = 30 +(2x 4) = 38mm =0.038 m

Substitute the values into the equation, we get

τ max = 16 x 190.96 x 0.038 /π x (0.038⁴ - 0.03⁴)

τ max = 28.98 MPa.

Thus, the maximum shear stress in the tube is 28.98 MPa.
