Determine the reactor volume (assume a CSTR activated sludge aerobic reactor at steady state) required to treat 5 MGD of domesti

c wastewater from an influent BOD concentration of 250 mg/L to an effluent concentration of 10 mg/L. X (MLVSS) = 3000 mg/L, and the kinetics are first order and not variable order. The first order equation you must use to calculate the specific substrate utilization rate is q = K S where S is the effluent BOD concentration and K is the first order BOD degradation rate constant. The value of K is 0.04 L/(day*mg). What is the required reactor volume in MG (millions of gallons)? All the choices below are in units of MG.

Answer:

1.0MG

Explanation:

to solve this problem we use this formula

S₀-S/t = ksx --- (1)

the values have been given as

concentration = S₀ = 250mg

effluent concentration = S= 10mg

value of K = 0.04L/day

x = 3000 mg

when we put these values into this equation,

250-10/t = 0.04x10x3000

240/t = 1200

we cross multiply from this stage

240 = 1200t

t = 240/1200

t = 0.2

remember the question says that 5MGD is required to be treated

so the volume would be

v = 0.2x5

= 1.0 MG

1. A thin plate of a ceramic material with E = 225 GPa is loaded in tension, developing a stress of 450 MPa. Is the specimen lik
mina [271]

Answer:

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 (= 22.5)

Explanation:

If the maximum strength at tip Is greater than theoretical fracture strength value then fracture will occur and if the maximum strength is lower than theoretical fracture strength then no fracture will occur.

\sigma_m = 2\sigma_o [\frac{a}{\rho_t}]^{1/2}

=  2\times 750 (\frac{\frac{0.2mm}{2}}{0.001 mm}})^{1/2}

                 = 15 GPa

fracture will occur as the value is less than E/10 = 22.5

The uniform slender rod has a mass m.
Nikolay [14]

Answer: 3/2mg

Explanation:

Express the moment equation about point B

MB = (M K)B

-mg cosθ (L/6) = m[α(L/6)](L/6) – (1/12mL^2 )α

α = 3g/2L cosθ

express the force equation along n and t axes.

Ft = m (aG)t

mg cosθ – Bt = m [(3g/2L cos) (L/6)]

Bt = ¾ mg cosθ

Fn = m (aG)n

Bn -mgsinθ = m[ω^2 (L/6)]

Bn =1/6 mω^2 L + mgsinθ

Calculate the angular velocity of the rod

ω = √(3g/L sinθ)

when θ = 90°, calculate the values of Bt and Bn

Bt =3/4 mg cos90°

= 0

Bn =1/6m (3g/L)(L) + mg sin (9o°)

= 3/2mg

Hence, the reactive force at A is,

FA = √(02 +(3/2mg)^2

= 3/2 mg

The magnitude of the reactive force exerted on it by pin B when θ = 90° is 3/2mg

Calculate the magnitude of the velocity and the θ angular direction of the block and the bullet together when the 50 g bullet mo
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Magnitude of the velocity = 16.82 m/s

Angular direction, θ = 52.41°

Explanation:

As given ,

mass of bullet, m₁= 50g = 0.05 kg

speed of bullet , u₁ = 600 m/s

mass of the block , m₂ = 4 kg

speed of the block before collision , u₂ = 12 m/s

direction , θ = 30°

Now,

Assume that the combined velocity of bullet and block after collision = v

and the direction = θ

Now, from the conservation of momentum in x - direction :

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = ( m₁ + m₂ ) vₓ

where v = final velocity after collision

u₁ = initial velocity of bullet before collision = 0

m₁ = mass of the bullet before collision = 0.05 kg

u₂  = velocity of block before collision = 12 cos(30° )

m₂ = mass of block before collision

m₁ + m₂ = combined mass of bullet and block after collision = 0.05 + 4

∴ we get

0.05 (0) + 4(12 cos(30° ) ) = ( 0.05 + 4 ) vₓ

⇒ 0 + 4(6√3) = 4.05 vₓ

⇒24√3 = 4.05 vₓ

⇒vₓ = 10.26 m/s

Now, from the conservation of momentum in y - direction :

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = ( m₁ + m₂ ) v_{y}

where v = final velocity after collision

u₁= initial velocity of bullet before collision = 600

m₁ = mass of the bullet before collision = 0.05 kg

u₂  = velocity of block before collision = 12 sin(30° )

m₂= mass of block before collision

m₁+ m₂= combined mass of bullet and block after collision = 0.05 + 4

∴ we get

0.05 (600) + 4(12 sin(30° ) ) = ( 0.05 + 4 ) v_{y}

⇒ 30 + 4(6) = 4.05 v_{y}

⇒30 +24 = 4.05 v_{y}

⇒54 = 4.05 v_{y}

⇒v_{y} = 13.33 m/s

Now, the magnitude of the velocity = √vₓ² + v_{y}² = √(10.26)² + (13.33)²

                                                           = √105.26 + 177.68

                                                           = √282.95 = 16.82

The angular direction, θ =  tan^{-1}(\frac{v_{y} }{v_{x} }) =  tan^{-1}(\frac{13.33}{10.26}) = tan^{-1}(1.299) = 52.41°

The weatherman states that the current temperature is 95 F and the dew point is 74 F. What is the current relative humidity?
spayn [35]

Answer:

Current Relative Humidity is 29.623

Given:

Current Temperature, T_{c} = 95 F = 35^{\circ}C

Dew point temperature, T_{d} = 74 F = 23.34^{\circ}C

Solution:

Now, in order to calculate the Relative Humidity, RH, we use the given formula:

T_{d} =100( \frac{\frac{aT_{c}}{b + T}b + lnRH}{a - \frac{aT_{c}}{b + T} + lnRH})

where

a = 17.625

b = 237.7

Now, using the above formula and given values:

23.34 = (237.7\frac{\frac{17.625\times 35}{ 237.7 + 35} + lnRH}{17.625 - \frac{17.625\times 35}{237.7 + 35} + lnRH})

23.34(17.625 - 2.26 + lnRH) = (237.7\times 2.26 + lnRH)

358.62 + 23.34lnRH) = (537.20 + lnRH)

358.62 + 23.34lnRH) = (537.20 + lnRH)

On solving the above eqn, we get:

RH = 29.623
