Answer:

Relative density = 0.7 or 70%

Explanation:

The following information was provided by this question

Pd = 1.72mg/mg³

Pd max = 1.81 mg/mg³

Pd min = 1.54 mg/mg³

We substitute into the formula. This formula is contained in the attachment.

[(1/1.54)-(1/1.72)]/[1/1.54 - 1/1.81]

= 0.649350 - 0.581395 / 0.649350 - 0.552486

= 0.067955/0.096864

= 0.7015

= 0.7

The relative density is Therefore 0.7 or 70% when converted to percentage

A steam reformer operating at 650C and 1 atm uses propane as fuel for hydrogen production. At the given operating conditions, th
dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) for shifting reactions,

Kps =  ph2 pco2/pcoph20

=[h2] [co2]/[co] [h2o]

h2 + co2 + h2O + co + c3H8 = 1

it implies that

H2 + 0.09 + H2O + 0.08 + 0.05 = 1

solving the system of equation yields

H2 = 0.5308,

H2O = 0.2942

B)  according to Le chatelain's principle for a slightly exothermic reaction, an increase in temperature favors the reverse reaction producing less hydrogen. As a result, concentration of hydrogen in the reformation decreases with an increasing temperature.

c) to calculate the maximum hydrogen yield , both reaction must be complete

C3H8 + 3H2O ⇒ 3CO + 7H2( REFORMING)

CO + H2O ⇒ CO2 + H2 ( SHIFTING)

C3H8 + 6H2O ⇒ 3CO2 + 10 H2 ( OVER ALL)

SO,

Maximum hydrogen yield

= 10mol h2/3 molco2 + 10molh2

= 0.77

⇒ 77%

Answer:

A geological engineer

Explanation:

The field of geological engineering is concerned with geology, civil engineering and area of mining , geography and forestry.

Geological engineers apply their knowledge of earth science to solve human problems. Such as creating an equipment using science that can aid in solving the challenge in separating coal from dirt components in an environmental friendly manner.

Geological engineers investigate this that are connected to the earth such as mines, roads, quarries , pipelines, petroleum products, forests and building projects. They also perform surveys on effects of landslides and earthquakes.

Design a filter that has infinite DC gain, a gain of one from 1Hz to 100 Hz and filters (1storder) any signals above 100 Hz.a) S
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Attached below are the  sketches

answer :

c) G(s) = 100 / ( s + 100 )

d) y'(t)  + 100Y(s) = 100 X(s)

e) g(t) = e^-100t  u(t)

Explanation:

a) Sketch the bode plot

The filter here is a low pass filter

b) Sketch the s-plane

attached below.     pole ( s ) is at 100

c) write the transfer function of the filter

Transfer function ; G(s) = 100 / ( s + 100 )

d) write the differential equation

Y(s) / X(s) = 100 / s + 100

Y(s) [ s + 100 ] = 100 X(s)

= sY(s) + 100Y = 100 X(s)

∴ differential equation = y'(t)  + 100Y(s) = 100 X(s)

e) write out the unforced transient response

g(t) = e^-100t  u(t)

f) write out the frequency response

attached below

. A normal-weight concrete has an average compressive strength of 20 MPa. What is the estimated flexure strength
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

2.77mpa

Explanation:

compressive strength = 20 MPa. We are to find the estimated flexure strength

We calculate the estimated flexural strength R as

R = 0.62√fc

Where fc is the compressive strength and it is in Mpa

When we substitute 20 for gc

Flexure strength is

0.62x√20

= 0.62x4.472

= 2.77Mpa

The estimated flexure strength is therefore 2.77Mpa
