Answer: the reflection loss is 4%

Explanation:

Given that;

n for window glass is 1.5

we know that

Reflection Loss rλ = (nλ - 1)² / (nλ + 1)²

the reflection of loss rλ at normal incidence between two media with different refractive indexes rλ = n'/n, the ratio indices

where n is index of refraction of air ( 1 )

and n' is the refraction of window glass ( 1.5 )

our nλ is 1.5

so we substitute into the equation

rλ =[ (1.5 - 1)² / (1.5 + 1)²] × 100

= [0.25 / 6.25] × 100

= 0.04 × 100

= 4%

Therefore the reflection loss is 4%

Alexxandr [17]

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

Design a half-wave recti er which provides a peak voltage of 15 V, and anaverage voltage of 3.8 V when driven by a 120 V (rms) a

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

You need a 120V to 24V commercial transformer (transformer 1:5), a 100 ohms resistance, a 1.5 K ohms resistance and a diode with a minimum forward current of 20 mA (could be 1N4148)

Step by step design:

Because you have a 120V AC voltage supply you need an efficient way to reduce that voltage as much as possible before passing to the rectifier, for that I recommend a standard 120V to 24V transformer. 120 Vrms = 85 V and 24 Vrms = 17V = Vin
Because 17V is not 15V you still need a voltage divider to step down that voltage, for that we use R1 = 100Ω and R2 = 1.3KΩ. You need to remember that more than 1 V is going to be in the diode, so for our calculation we need to consider it. Vf = (V*R2)/(R1+R2), V = Vin - 1 = 17-1 = 16V and Vf = 15, Choosing a fix resistance R1 = 100Ω and solving the equation we find R2 = 1.5KΩ
Finally to select the diode you need to calculate two times the maximum current and that would be the forward current (If) of your diode. Imax = Vf/R2 = 10mA and If = 2*Imax = 20mA

Our circuit meet the average voltage (Va) specification:

Va = (15)/(pi) = 4.77V considering the diode voltage or 3.77V without considering it

A well insulated turbine operates at steady state. Steam enters the turbine at 4 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 3015.4 kJ/kg an

Anarel [89]

Answer:

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW

Explanation:

given data

pressure = 4 MPa

specific enthalpy h1 = 3015.4 kJ/kg

velocity v1 = 10 m/s

pressure = 0.07 MPa

specific enthalpy h2 = 2431.7 kJ/kg

velocity v2 = 90 m/s

mass flow rate = 11.95 kg/s

solution

we apply here thermodynamic equation that

energy equation that is

$h1 + \frac{v1}{2} + q = h2 + \frac{v2}{2} + w$

put here value with

turbine is insulated so q = 0

so here

$3015.4 *1000 + \frac{10^2}{2} = 2431.7 * 1000 + \frac{90^2}{2} + w$

solve we get

w = 579700 J/kg = 579.7 kJ/kg

and

W = mass flow rate × w

W = 11.95 × 579.7

W = 6927.415 kW

power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW
