Consider the diffusion of water vapor through a polypropylene (PP) sheet 1 mm thick. The pressures of H2O at the two faces are 3

kPa and 9 kPa, which are maintained constant. Assuming conditions of steady state, what is the diffusion flux, in [(cm3 STP)/cm2-s], at 298 K

Answer:

\boxed{0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}}

Explanation:

Diffusion flux of a gas, J is given by

J=P_m\frac {\triangle P}{\triangle x} where P_m is permeability coefficient, \triangle P is pressure difference and x is thickness of membrane.

The pressure difference will be 10,000 Pa- 3000 Pa= 7000 Pa

At 298 K, the permeability coefficient of water vapour through polypropylene sheet is 38\times 10^{-13}(cm^{3}. STP)(cm)/(cm^{2}.s.Pa)

Since the thickness of sheet is given as 1mm= 0.1 cm then

J=38\times 10^{-13}(cm^{3}. STP)(cm)/(cm^{2}.s.Pa)\times \frac {7000 pa}{0.1cm}=0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}

Therefore, the diffusion flux is \boxed{0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}}

A river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 M3/s. This river has three tributaries, tributary A, B and C, which account fo
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

50421.6 m³

Explanation:

The river has an average rate of water flow of 59.6 m³/s.

Tributary B accounts for 47% of the rate of water flow. Therefore the rate of water flow through tributary B is:

Flow rate of water through tributary B = 47% of 59.6 m³/s = 0.47 * 59.6 m³/s = 28.012 m³/s

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B = Flow rate of water through tributary B * time taken

time = 30 minutes = 30 minutes * 60 seconds / minute = 1800 seconds

The volume of water that has been discharged through tributary B in 30 seconds = 28.012 m³/s * 1800 seconds = 50421.6 m³

Assume the impedance of a circuit element is Z = (3 + j4) Ω. Determine the circuit element’s conductance and susceptance.
djyliett [7]

Answer:

B. G = 333 mS, B = j250 mS

Explanation:

impedance of a circuit element is Z = (3 + j4) Ω

The general equation for impedance

Z = (R + jX) Ω

where

R = resistance in ohm

X = reactance

R = 3Ω  X = 4Ω

Conductance = 1/R while Susceptance = 1/X

Conductance = 1/3 = 0.333S

= 333 mS

Susceptance = 1/4 = 0.25S

= 250mS

The right option is B. G = 333 mS, B = j250 mS
