A student lives in an apartment with a floor area of 60 m2 and ceiling height of 1.8 m. The apartment has a fresh (outdoor) air

exchange rate of 0.5/hr. The stove in the apartment heats by natural gas. The student cooks a meal using two gas burners that each emit carbon monoxide (CO) at a rate of 100 mg/hr. The outdoor CO concentration can be assumed to be negligible (0 ppm). The initial (time = 0) indoor CO concentration can be assumed to be 0 ppm (except for problem 4). Carbon monoxide can be considered as an inert gas, i.e., it does not stick to or react with any surfaces or other gases in air.
1. Assume that the student cooks for a long enough period of time to achieve a steady-state CO concentration in the apartment. What is that concentration in ppb?
2. Assume that the student cooks for only 45 minutes and turns off both burners at that time. What is the CO concentration in ppb at the end of 45 minutes?
3. Repeat problem 2 for air exchange rates that vary from 0.1 to 1/hr and plot the concentration at 45 minutes (in ppb) versus air exchange rate.
4. Assume that for the conditions of problem 2, the student waits 25 minutes after turning the burners off and then starts cooking again with two burners on. How long will it take to reach a concentration that is 95% of steady-state under this condition?
Note that you can actually address this question with an eloquent mathematical derivation (preferred) or simply by crunching the concentration profile in a spreadsheet.
What is the concentration at 95% of steady-state?
Compare your result with the time that would be required to reach 95% of steady-state had the initial indoor CO concentration been 0 ppm.

To find the reactance XLXLX_L of an inductor, imagine that a current I(t)=I0sin(ωt)I(t)=I0sin⁡(ωt) , is flowing through the indu
Sophie [7]

Answer:

V(t) = XLI₀sin(π/2 - ωt)

Explanation:

According to Maxwell's equation which is expressed as;

V(t) = dФ/dt ........(1)

Magnetic flux Ф can also be expressed as;

Ф = LI(t)

Where

L = inductance of the inductor

I = current in Ampere

We can therefore Express Maxwell equation as:

V(t) = dLI(t)/dt ....... (2)

Since the inductance is constant then voltage remains

V(t) = LdI(t)/dt

In an AC circuit, the current is time varying and it is given in the form of

I(t) = I₀sin(ωt)

Substitutes the current I(t) into equation (2)

Then the voltage across inductor will be expressed as

V(t) = Ld(I₀sin(ωt))/dt

V(t) = LI₀ωcos(ωt)

Where cos(ωt) = sin(π/2 - ωt)

Then

V(t) = ωLI₀sin(π/2 - ωt) .....(3)

Because the voltage and current are out of phase with the phase difference of π/2 or 90°

The inductive reactance XL = ωL

Substitute ωL for XL in equation (3)

Therefore, the voltage across inductor is can be expressed as;

V(t) = XLI₀sin(π/2 - ωt)

exis [7]

The brakes are being bled on a passenger vehicle with a disc/drum brake system is described in the following

Explanation:

1.Risk: Continued operation at or below Rotor Minimum Thickness can lead to Brake system failure. As the rotor reaches its minimum thickness, the braking distance increases, sometimes up to 4 meters. A brake system is designed to take kinetic energy and transfer it into heat energy.

2.Since the piston needs to be pushed back into the caliper in order to fit over the new pads, I do open the bleeder screw when pushing the piston back in. This does help prevent debris from traveling back through the system and contaminating the ABS sensors

3.There are three methods of bleeding brakes: Vacuum pumping. Pressure pumping. Pump and hold.

4,Brake drag is caused by the brake pads or shoes not releasing completely when the brake pedal is released. ... A worn or corroded master cylinder bore causes excess pedal effort resulting in dragging brakes. Brake Lines and Hoses: There may be pressure trapped in the brake line or hose after the pedal has been released.
