Ordan has _ 5 8 can of green paint and _ 3 6 can of blue paint. If the cans are the same size, does Jordan have more green paint

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Jordan has more green paints

Explanation:

Given

$Green = \frac{5}{8}$

$Blue = \frac{3}{6}$

Required

Which paint does he have more?

For better understanding, it's better to convert both measurements to decimal.

For the green paint:

$Green = \frac{5}{8}$

$Green = 0.625$

For the blue paint:

$Blue = \frac{3}{6}$

$Blue = 0.5$

By comparison:

$0.625 > 0.5$

This means that Jordan has more green paints

I have a stream with three components, A, B, and C, coming from another process. The stream is 50 % A, and the balance is equal

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$X_{A} = \frac{N_{Ao}-N_{A}}{N_{Ao}}$

Nₐ₀-Nₐ = 1.33

Nₐ₀ = 2.5

Conversion X = 1.33/2.5 = 0.533

Explanation:

A + 2B + 4C ⇒ 2X + 3Y

Given a stream containing 50% A, 25% B and 25% C, to get the limiting reactant, lets take a simple basis

Say stream is 10 moles, this give

A = 5moles

B = 2.5mole

C = 2.5moles

from the balanced equation above,

1mole of A ⇒ 4moles of C

∴ 5moles of A ⇒ (5x4)/1 ⇒ 20moles of C

also;

2mole of B ⇒ 4moles of C

∴ 2.5moles of B ⇒ (2.5x4)/2 ⇒ 5moles of C

so clearly from above reactant C is the limiting reactant.

Note: To get conversion of a process, we must use the limiting reactant. this is because ones it is used up, the reaction comes to an end

Formula to obtain conversion is:

Conversion = (Amount of A used up)/(Amount of A fed into the system)

$X_{A} = \frac{N_{Ao}-N_{A}}{N_{Ao}}$

where, Nₐ₀-Nₐ = is the amount in moles of A used up

Nₐ₀ = amount in moles of A fed into the system

The next question is what mole of reactant C will give 0.1mole fraction of Y

Recall our basis = 10moles

from conservation of mass law, 10mole of product must come out which 0.1 moles fraction is Y

therefore amount Y in the product is = 0.1x10 = 1mole

if 3moles of Y ⇒ 4mole of C

∴ 1mole of Y ⇒ (1x4)/3 ⇒ 1.33moles of C

calculating the conversion of limiting reactant C that will give 0.1mole fraction of Y

Nₐ₀-Nₐ = 1.33

Nₐ₀ = 2.5

Conversion X = 1.33/2.5 = 0.533

What's a disadvantage of highest MERV-rated filters?

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

3) the pressure drop across high MERV filters is significant.

Explanation:

MERV (Minimum-Efficiency Reporting Value) is used to measure the efficiency of filter to remove particles. A filter of high MERV can filter smaller particles but this causes an increase in reduced air flow that is an increase in pressure drop. High MERV filters capture more particles causing them to get congested faster and thereby increasing pressure drop.

Excessive pressure drop can cause overheating and lead to damage of the filter. The pressure drop can be reduced by increasing the surface area of the filter.

what is an example of an innovative solution to an engineering problem? Explain briefly why you chose this answer.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

robotic technology

Explanation:

Innovation is nothing but the use of various things such as ideas, products, people to build up a solution for the benefit of the human. It can be any product or any solution which is new and can solve people's problems.

Innovation solution makes use of technology to provide and dispatch new solutions or services which is a combination of both technology and ideas.

One such example of an innovative solution we can see is the use of "Robots" in medical science or in any military operations or rescue operation.

Sometimes it is difficult for humans to do everything or go to everywhere. Thus scientist and engineers have developed many advance robots or machines using new ideas and technology to find solutions to these problems.

Using innovations and technologies, one can find solutions to many problems which is difficult for the peoples. Robots can be used in any surveillance operation or in places of radioactive surrounding where there is a danger of humans to get exposed to such threats. They are also used in medical sciences to operate and support the patient.

Reasons for racking back on a wall

zmey [24]

Answer:

Racking is the term used for when buildings tilt as their structural components are forced out of plumb. This is most commonly caused by wind forces exerting horizontal pressure, but it can also be caused by seismic stress, thermal expansion or contraction, and so on.
