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 After using the water, half of the water withdrawn returns to the creek and contains 1.00 mg/L of Se.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

Answer:

A)W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B)σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k

Explanation:

a).The energy rate balance equation in the control volume is given by the formula;

Q' - W' + m(h1 - h2) = 0

Dividing through by m, we have;

(Q'/m) - (W'/m) + (h1 - h2) = 0

Rearranging, we have;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + (h1 - h2)

Normally, this transforms to another equation;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + c_p(T1 - T2)

Where;

W'/m is the rate at which power is developed

Q'/m is the rate at which heat is flowing

c_p is specific heat at constant pressure which from tables at a temperature of 980k = 1.1 KJ/kg.k

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is exit temperature

We are given;

Q'/m = -30 kj/kg (negative because it leaves the turbine)

T1 = 980 k

T2 = 670 k

Plugging in the relevant values;

W'/m = -30 + 1.1(980 - 670)

W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B) The Entropy produced from the entropy balance equation in a control volume is given by the formula;

(Q'/T_boundary) + m(s1 - s2) + σ'_gen = 0

Dividing through by m gives;

((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s1 - s2) + σ'_gen/m = 0

Rearranging, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s2 - s1)

Under the conditions given in the question, this transforms normally to;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) - c_p•In(T2/T1) - R•In(p2/p1)

σ'_gen/m is the rate of entropy production in kj/kg

We are given;

p2 = 100 kpa

p1 = 400 kpa

T_boundary = 315 K

For an ideal gas, R = 0.287 KJ/kg.K

Plugging in the relevant values including the ones initially written in answer a above, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -(-30/315) - 1.1(In(670/980)) - 0.287(In(100/400))

σ'_gen/m = 0.0952 + 0.4183 + 0.3979

σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k

The proposed grading at a project site will consist of 25,100 m3 of cut and 23,300 m3 of fill and will be a balanced earthwork j
Anna [14]

Answer:

the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

Explanation:

Given that;

volume of cut = 25,100 m³

Volume of dry soil fill = 23,300 m³

Weight of the soil will be;

⇒ 93% × 18.3 kN/m³ × 23,300 m³

= 0.93 × 426390 kN 3

= 396,542.7 kN  

Optimum moisture content = 12.9 %

Required amount of moisture = (12.9 - 8.3)% = 4.6 %

So,

Weight of water required = 4.6% × 396,542.7 = 18241 kN

Volume of water required = 18241 / 9.81 = 1859 m³

Volume of water required = 1859 kL

Therefore, the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL
