Answer:

The most fatal collision in Florida happen during Fridays and Saturdays. "According to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Fridays and Saturdays were the worst days for car accidents in Florida during 2017. "The data also suggests that more fatal car crashes happen on Friday and Saturday night than during other parts of the week."

The typical Canadian worker is able to produce 100 board feet (a unit of measure) of lumber or 1000 light bulbs per year. The wo

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the Canadian country, it is possible that the country is able to produce either 100 units of lumber or 1000 lightbulbs. Then, 100 lumber is equal to 1000 bulbs in the home, and hence, one lumber is equivalent to 10 bulbs. Therefore, the opportunity cost of lumber in the home is ten bulbs.

Thus, the country's production possibilities frontier PPF is a linear combination of 100 lumber and 1000 bulbs. The graphical diagram of the production possibilities frontier PPF can be seen in the image below.

Underground water is to be pumped by a 78% efficient 5- kW submerged pump to a pool whose free surface is 30 m above the undergr

maksim [4K]

Answer:

a) The maximum flowrate of the pump is approximately 13,305.22 cm³/s

b) The pressure difference across the pump is approximately 293.118 kPa

Explanation:

The efficiency of the pump = 78%

The power of the pump = 5 -kW

The height of the pool above the underground water, h = 30 m

The diameter of the pipe on the intake side = 7 cm

The diameter of the pipe on the discharge side = 5 cm

a) The maximum flowrate of the pump is given as follows;

$P = \dfrac{Q \cdot \rho \cdot g\cdot h}{\eta_t}$

Where;

P = The power of the pump

Q = The flowrate of the pump

ρ = The density of the fluid = 997 kg/m³

h = The head of the pump = 30 m

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

$\eta_t$ = The efficiency of the pump = 78%

$\therefore Q_{max} = \dfrac{P \cdot \eta_t}{\rho \cdot g\cdot h}$

$Q_{max}$ = 5,000 × 0.78/(997 × 9.8 × 30) ≈ 0.0133 m³/s

The maximum flowrate of the pump $Q_{max}$ ≈ 0.013305 m³/s = 13,305.22 cm³/s

b) The pressure difference across the pump, ΔP = ρ·g·h

∴ ΔP = 997 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 30 m = 293.118 kPa

The pressure difference across the pump, ΔP ≈ 293.118 kPa

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.
