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 After using the water, half of the water withdrawn returns to the creek and contains 1.00 mg/L of Se.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

The mean of 10 numbers is 9, then the sum (total) of these numbers will be​
qwelly [4]

Answer:

90

Explanation:

mean is basically taking the sum of all numbers and then dividing the sum with the number of all given numbers..

here, the mean is 9, total numbers are 10.. so the sum will be 9 multiplied by 10, that is 90.

In the engineering design and prototyping process, what is the advantage of drawings and symbols over written descriptions?
MrMuchimi

The advantages that can be associated to

drawings and symbols over written descriptions in engineering design and prototyping process are;

Communicate design ideas as well as technical information to engineers.

Symbols and drawings can be universal which means it is easy to interpret any where by professionals.

  • An engineering drawing serves as complex dimensional object and symbol use by engineer to communicate.

  • Drawings and symbols makes it easier to communicate design ideas and technical information to engineers and and how the process will go.

Therefore, drawings and symbols is universal to all engineer unlike written one.
