Plateau Creek carries 5.0 m^3 /s of water with a selenium (Se) concentration of 0.0015 mg/L. A farmer withdraws water at a certa

in flowrate (m3 /s) from the creek for irrigation. After using the water, half of the water withdrawn returns to the creek and contains 1.00 mg/L of Se. Fish in the creek are sensitive to Se levels over 0.04 mg/L.
Required:

How much water (m3 /s) can the farmer withdraw from the stream to maintain Se at 0.04 mg/L after the contaminated water is returned to the creek?

Answer:

The correct answer is "4.8137 m³". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

Firstly we have to calculate the concentration of Se:

C = 0.0015 \ mg/L\times \frac{1g}{1000 mg}\times \frac{1 \ mol}{79 \ g}

   =1.9\times 10^{-8} \ mol/L

Concentration the fish can take:

=0.04 \ mg/L\times \frac{1 \ g}{1000mg}\times \frac{1 \ mol}{79 \ g}

According to the general dilution principle will be:

⇒  M_1V_1 = M_2V_2

The volume that can take the farmer will be:

V_2 = 1.9\times 10^{-8} M\times  \frac{5\times 10^3 \ L}{5.1\times 10-7 M}

    =186.27 \ L

On converting this into m³, we get

= 0.18627 \ m^3

Finally the volume the farmer can remove would be:

V = 5-0.18627

   = 4.8137 \ m^3

Which of the following bonding is the strongest? (a) lonic bonding (b) Metallic bonding (c) Covalent bonding with some van der W
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

(a) lonic bonding

Explanation:

The Strongest chemical bond is the ionic bond ,

Because ionic bond is bound by strong electrostatic interactions ,

The ionic bond forms crystal lattice structure which are bounded by  electrostatic interactions but the covalent bond is formed by the van der waal forces .

Hence , ionic bond is stronger than covalent bond .

An aircraft increases its speed by 2% in straight and level flight. If the total lift remains constant determine the revised CL
damaskus [11]

Answer:

96.1%

Explanation:

We know that lift force

F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L\rho AV^2

                                                                    ------------(1)

Where C_L is the lift force coefficient .

          ρ is the density of fluid.

         A is the area.

        V is the velocity.

Now when speed is increased by 2 % and all other parameter remains constant except C_L .

Let;s take new value of lift force coefficient is C_L' .

F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L'\rho A(1.02V)^2

                                                                         -----------(2)

Now from equation 1 and 2

C_L\times V^2=C_L'\times1.0404 V^2

⇒C_L'=0.961C_L

So we can say that revised value of  lift force coefficient is 96.1% of original value.
