Answer:

True

Explanation:

Below is a cut and paste. Also read where recycling shops will pay up to $200 to harvest the precious metals used in catalyst process. Thieves will actually steal them from parked cars!!

Catalytic converters also use an oxidative catalyst composed of platinum or palladium. It helps reduce hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO). To start with, carbon monoxide and oxygen combine to form carbon dioxide (CO2). Then, unburnt hydrocarbons and oxygen combine to form carbon dioxide and water.

The specific gravity of a fluid with a weight density of 31.2 lb/ft is a. 2.00 b. 0.969 c. 0.500 d. 1.03

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Answer is c 0.500

Explanation:

$SpecificGravity=\frac{\rho _{fluid}*g}{\rho _{water}*g}$

We know that $\rho_{water}=62.42lb/ft^{3}$

Applying values we get

$SpecificGravity=\frac{31.2}{62.4}=0.5$

What will the following segment of code output? score = 95; if (score > 95) cout << "Congratulations!\n"; cout <<

Anarel [89]

Answer:

That's a high score!

This is a test question!

Explanation:

The reason these two lines are printed and not the first one is simple. After the 'IF' condition has been stated, there is no use of parenthesis such as { and } to enclose the next lines. This means that only the first line after the 'IF' condition may be read or skipped depending on whether the condition (score>95) is met. Since the score is not larger than 95, and the 'IF' condition fails, the line 'Congratulations!' is not printed. The next two lines of the code are read as normal because they do not depend on the 'IF' condition.

Two mass streams of the same ideal gas are mixed in a steady-flow chamber while receiving energy by heat transfer from the surro

loris [4]

Answer:

(a)The final temperature of mixture is T₃ =m₁T₁/m₃+ m₂T₂/m₃ + Qin/m₃Cp

(b) The final volume is V₃ =V₁ + V₂ + RQin/P₃Cp

Explanation:

Solution

Now

The system comprises of two inlets and on exit.

Mass flow rate enthalpy of fluid from inlet -1 be m₁ and h₁

Mass flow rate enthalpy of fluid from inlet -2 be m₂ and h₂

Mass flow rate enthalpy of fluid from exit be m₃ and h₃

Mixing chambers do not include any kind of work (w = 0)

So, both the kinetic and potential energies of the fluid streams are usually negligible (ke =0, pe =0)

(a) Applying the mass balance of mixing chamber, min = mout

Applying the energy balance of mixing chamber,

Ein = Eout

min hin =mout hout

miCpT₁ + m₂CpT₂ +Qin =m₃CpT₃

T₃ = miCpT₁/m₃CpT₃ + m₂CpT₂/m₃CpT₃ + Qin/m₃CpT₃ +

T₃ =m₁T₁/m₃+ m₂T/m₃ + Qin/m₃Cp

The final temperature of mixture is T₃ =m₁T₁/m₃+ m₂T₂/m₃ + Qin/m₃Cp

(b) From the ideal gas equation,

v =RT/PT

v₃ = RT₃/P₃

The volume flow rate at the exit, V₃ =m₃v₃

V₃ = m₃ RT₃/P₃

Substituting the value of T₃, we have

V₃=m₃ R/P₃ (=m₁T₁/m₃+ m₂T₂/m₃ + Qin/m₃Cp)

V₃ = R/P₃ (m₁T₁+ m₂T₂ + Qin/Cp)

Now

The mixing process occurs at constant pressure P₃=P₂=P₁.

Hence V₃ becomes:

V₃=m₁RT₁/P₁ +m₂RT₂/P₂ + RQin/P₃Cp

V₃ =V₁ + V₂ + RQin/P₃Cp

Therefore, the final volume is V₃ =V₁ + V₂ + RQin/P₃Cp

Hence V₃ becomes:

V₃ =V₁ + V₂ + r * 0/P₃Cp

V₃ =V₁ + V₂ + 0

V₃ =V₁ + V₂

Therefore the volume flow rate at exit is V₃ =V₁ + V₂
