Answer:

B. Acid rain.

C. Photochemical smog.

Explanation:

Oxides of nitrogen contribute to the formation of photochemical smog and acid rain. Photochemical smog is a type of smog produced when ultraviolet light from the sun reacts with nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere while on the other hand, when nitrogen oxide react with the water vapor in the atmosphere forming nitric acid which falls on the earth surface with the help of precipitation.

A sand has a natural water content of 5% and bulk unit weight of 18.0 kN/m3. The void ratios corresponding to the densest and lo

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Relative density = 0.545

Degree of saturation = 24.77%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Water content, w = 5%

Bulk unit weight = 18.0 kN/m³

Void ratio in the densest state, $e_{min}$ = 0.51

Void ratio in the loosest state, $e_{max}$ = 0.87

Now,

Dry density, $\gamma_d=\frac{\gamma_t}{1+w}$

$=\frac{18}{1+0.05}$

= 17.14 kN/m³

Also,

$\gamma_d=\frac{G\gamma_w}{1+e}$

here, G = Specific gravity = 2.7 for sand

$17.14=\frac{2.7\times9.81}{1+e}$

e = 0.545

Relative density = $\frac{e_{max}-e}{e_{max}-e_{min}}$

= $\frac{0.87-0.545}{0.87-0.51}$

= 0.902

Also,

Se = wG

here,

S is the degree of saturation

therefore,

S(0.545) = (0.05)()2.7

S = 0.2477

S = 0.2477 × 100% = 24.77%

For a cylindrical annulus whose inner and outer surfaces are maintained at 30 ºC and 40 ºC, respectively, a heat flux sensor mea

miskamm [114]

Answer:

$k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)$ $\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}$

where $r_1$ and $r_2$ be the inner radius, outer radius of the annalus.

Explanation:

Let $r_1$ , $r_2$ and $L$ be the inner radius, outer radius and length of the given annulus.

Temperatures at the inner surface, $T_1=30^{\circ}C\\$ and at the outer surface, $T_2=40^{\circ}C$ .

Let q be the rate of heat transfer at the steady-state.

Given that, the heat flux at r=3cm=0.03m is

$40 W/m^2$ .

$\Rightarrow \frac{q}{(2\pi\times0.03\times L)}=40$

$\Rightarrow q=2.4\pi L \;W$

This heat transfer is same for any radial position in the annalus.

Here, heat transfer is taking placfenly in radial direction, so this is case of one dimentional conduction, hence Fourier's law of conduction is applicable.

Now, according to Fourier's law:

$q=-kA\frac{dT}{dr}\;\cdots(i)$

where,

K=Thermal conductivity of the material.

T= temperature at any radial distance r.

A=Area through which heat transfer is taking place.

Here, $A=2\pi rL\;\cdots(ii)$

Variation of temperature w.r.t the radius of the annalus is

$\frac {T-T_1}{T_2-T_1}=\frac{\ln(r/r_1)}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dT}{dr}=\frac{T_2-T_1}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}\times \frac{1}{r}\;\cdots(iii)$

Putting the values from the equations (ii) and (iii) in the equation (i), we have

$q=\frac{2\pi kL(T_1-T_2)}{\LN(R_2/2_1)}$

$\Rightarrow k= \frac{q\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(T_2-T_1)}$

$\Rightarrow k=\frac{(2.4\pi L)\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(10)}$ [as $q=2.4\pi L$ , and $T_2-T_1=10 ^{\circ}C$ ]

$\Rightarrow k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)$ $\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}$

This is the required expression of k. By putting the value of inner and outer radii, the thermal conductivity of the material can be determined.

A reversible process and an irreversible process both have the same________ between the same two states. a. Internal energy b. W

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

a) Internal energy

Explanation:

As we know that internal energy is a point function so it did not depends on the path ,it depends at the initial and final states of process.All point function property did not depends on the path.Internal energy is a exact function.

Work and heat is a path function so these depend on the path.They have different values for different path between two states.Work and heat are in exact function.

We know that in ir-reversible process entropy will increase so entropy will be different for reversible and ir-reversible processes.

I'm so confused to this question <br>What is the difference between Science and Engineering?

muminat

Explanation:

Science is the body of knowledge that explores the physical and natural world. Engineering is the application of knowledge in order to design, build and maintain a product or a process that solves a problem and fulfills a need (i.e. a technology).
