Many households in developing countries prepare food over indoor cook stoves with no ducting system to exhaust the combustion pr

oducts outside. A woman in a household lights a fire in her cookstove at 4 pm. The fire emits benzo(a)pyrene, a carcinogenic compound, at a rate of 0.01 ng/min. The house has a size of 40 m3 and a ventilation rate of 1 m3/h. The ambient indoor air concentration of benzo(a)pyrene was 0.2 ng/m3 when she started the fire, but no significant concentration of benzo(a)pyrene is found in the outdoor air. What is the indoor benzo(a)pyrene concentration in the household at 6 pm?

Answer:

   C = 0.22857 ng / m³

Explanation:

Let's solve this problem for part the total time in the kitchen is

          t = 2h (60 min / 1h) = 120 min

The concentration (C) quantity of benzol pyrene is the initial quantity plus the quantity generated per area minus the quantity eliminated by the air flow. The amount removed can be calculated assuming that an amount of extra air that must be filled with the pollutant

amount generated

         C = co + time_generation rate / (area_house + area_flow)

         C = 0.2 + 0.01 120 / (40+ 2)

         C = 0.22857 ng / m³

Define the coefficient of determination and discuss the impact you would expect it to have on your engineering decision-making b
scoundrel [369]

Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

A hydraulic cylinder is to be used to move a workpiece in a manufacturing operation through a distance of 50 mm in 10 s. A force
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The answer to this question is 1273885.3 ∅

Explanation:

<em>The first step is to determine the required  hydraulic flow rate liquid if working pressure and  if a cylinder with a piston diameter of 100 mm is available.</em>

<em>Given that,</em>

<em>The distance = 50mm</em>

<em>The time t =10 seconds</em>

<em>The force F = 10kN</em>

<em>The piston diameter is = 100mm</em>

<em>The pressure = F/A</em>

<em> 10 * 10^3/Δ/Δ </em>

<em> P = 1273885.3503 pa</em>

<em>Then</em>

<em>Power = work/time  = Force * distance /time</em>

<em> = 10 * 1000 * 0.050/10</em>

<em>which is  =50 watt</em>

<em>Power =∅ΔP</em>

<em>50 = 1273885.3 ∅</em>
