Answer:

a) the moisture content before it was placed in the oven is 18.18%

b) degree of saturation for soil is 72.19%

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Moisture Content = [(Weight of soil before dry - dry weight) / dry weight] × 100

so we substitute

Moisture content = [(53.3 - 45.1) / 45.1 ] × 100

= (8.2/45.1) × 100

= 18.18%

Therefore the moisture content before it was placed in the oven is 18.18%

Dry Unit Weight = dry weight / volume

Dry Unit Weight = 45.1 lb / 0.45 ft³

Dry Unit Weight = 100.22 lb/ft³

we know that;

dry unit weight = (Specific gravity × unit weight of water) / (1 + e)

we also know that; unit weight of water is 62.43 lbf/ft³

so we substitute

e = (2.70×62.43 / 100.22) - 1

e = 1.68 - 1

e = 0.68

so void ratio e = 0.68

Now we determine the degree of saturation using the equation;

degree of saturation = (Moisture content × specific gravity) / void ratio

we substitute

degree of saturation = ( 18.18% × 2.7) / 0.68

= 0.49086 / 0.68

= 0.7219 ≈ 72.19%

Therefore degree of saturation for soil is 72.19%

The controller determines if a(n) _________ exists by calculating the difference between the SP and the PV.

shusha [124]

The controller determines if a(n) error exists by calculating the difference between the SP and the PV.

<h3>How does a controller work in control system?</h3>

The Control system is one where it entails if the output is one that has an effect on the input quantity.

So it uses the PV(Process Variable) set against the SP(Setpoint) to know if an error exists.

So, The controller determines if a(n) error exists by calculating the difference between the SP and the PV.

Water exiting the condenser of a power plant at 45 Centers a cooling tower with a mas flow rate of 15,000 kg/s. A stream of cool

MariettaO [177]

Answer: hello your question is incomplete below is the missing part

question :Determine the temperature of the cooled water exiting the cooling tower

answer : T = 43.477° C

Explanation:

Temp of water at exit = 45°C

mass flow rate of cooling tower = 15,000 kg/s

Temp of makeup water = 20°C

Assuming an atmospheric pressure of = 101.3 kPa

<u>Determine temperature of the cooled water exiting the cooling tower</u>

Water entering cooling tower at 45°C

Given that Latent heat of water at 45°C = 43.13 KJ/mol

Cp(wet air) = 1.005+ 1.884(y1)

where: y1 - Inlet mole ratio = (0.01257) / (1 - 0.01257) = 0.01273

Hence : Cp(wet air) = 29.145 + (0.01273) (33.94) = 29.577 KJ/kmol°C

<u>First step : calculate the value of Q </u>

Q = m*Cp*(ΔT) + W(latent heat)

Q = 321.6968 (29.577) (40-30) + 43.13 (18.26089)

Q = 95935.8547 KJ/s

Given that mass rate of water = 15000 kg/s

<u>Hence the temperature of the cooled water can be calculated using the equation below</u>

Q = m*Cp*∆T

Cp(water) = 4.2 KJ/Kg°C

95935.8547 = (15000)*(4.2)*(45 - T)

( 45 - T ) = 95935.8547/ 63000. ∴ T = 43.477° C
