Answer:

A) approximate alkalinity = 123.361 mg/l

B) exact alkalinity = 124.708 mg/l

Explanation:

Given data :

A) determine approximate alkalinity first

Bicarbonate ion = 120 mg/l

carbonate ion = 15 mg/l

Approximate alkalinity = ( carbonate ion ) * 50/30 + ( bicarbonate ion ) * 50/61

= 15 * (50/30) + 120*( 50/61 ) = 123.361 mg/l as CaCO3

B) calculate the exact alkalinity of the water if the pH = 9.43

pH + pOH = 14

9.43 + pOH = 14. therefore pOH = 14 - 9.43 = 4.57

[OH^- ] = 10^-4.57 = 2.692*10^-5 moles/l

[ OH^- ] = 2.692*10^-5 * 179/mole * 10^3 mg/g = 0.458 mg/l

[ H^+ ] = 10^-9.43 * 1 * 10^3 = 3.7154 * 10^-7 mg/l

therefore the exact alkalinity can be calculated as

= ( approximate alkalinity ) + ( [ OH^- ] * 50/17 ) - ( [ H^+ ] * 50/1 )

= 123.361 + ( 0.458 * 50/17 ) - ( 3.7154 * 10^-7 * 50/1 )

= 124.708 mg/l

The pads are 200mm long, 150 mm wide and thickness equal to 12mm. 1- Determine the average shear strain in the rubber if the for

lord [1]

Answer:

a) 0.3

b) 3.6 mm

Explanation:

Given

Length of the pads, l = 200 mm = 0.2 m

Width of the pads, b = 150 mm = 0.15 m

Thickness of the pads, t = 12 mm = 0.012 m

Force on the rubber, P = 15 kN

Shear modulus on the rubber, G = 830 GPa

The average shear strain can be gotten by

τ(average) = (P/2) / bl

τ(average) = (15/2) / (0.15 * 0.2)

τ(average) = 7.5 / 0.03

τ(average) = 250 kPa

γ(average) = τ(average) / G

γ(average) = 250 kPa / 830 kPa

γ(average) = 0.3

horizontal displacement,

δ = γ(average) * t

δ = 0.3 * 12

δ = 3.6 mm

Vikki [24]

Answer:

M_AD = 1359.17 lb-in

Explanation:

Given:

- T_ef = 46 lb

Find:

- Moment of that force T_ef about the line joining points A and D.

Solution:

- Find the position of point E:

mag(BC) = sqrt ( 48^2 + 36^2) = 60 in

BE / BC = 45 / 60 = 0.75

Hence, E = < 0.75*48 , 96 , 36*0.75> = < 36 , 96 , 27 > in

- Find unit vector EF:

mag(EF) = sqrt ( (21-36)^2 + (96+14)^2 + (57-27)^2 ) = 115 in

vec(EF) = < -15 , -110 , 30 >

unit(EF) = (1/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 >

- Tension T_EF = (46/115) * < -15 , -110 , 30 > = < -6 , -44 , 12 > lb

- Find unit vector AD:

mag(AD) = sqrt ( (48)^2 + (-12)^2 + (36)^2 ) = 12*sqrt(26) in

vec(AD) = < 48 , -12 , 36 >

unit(AD) = (1/12*sqrt(26)) * < 48 , -12 , 36 >

unit (AD) = <0.7845 , -0.19612 , 0.58835 >

M_AD = unit(AD) . ( E x T_EF)

$M_d = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.7845&-0.19612&0.58835\\36&96&27\\-6&-44&12\end{array}\right]$

M_AD = 1835.73 + 116.49528 - 593.0568

M_AD = 1359.17 lb-in

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: composted cow manure

Explanation:

A cow manure consists of high levels of ammonia, pathogens which can harm the plants thus cannot be used as fertilizer. The composted cow manure is a processed fertilizer which is prepared by eliminating the ammonia gas and pathogens. It is prepared by adding up the additional organic matter.

It is an excellent growing medium for the agricultural crops and garden plants as it is a nutrient rich fertilizer. It is mixed into the soil or can be used for top dressing of the agricultural field. It is a kind of organic manure.
