A lake is fed by a polluted stream and a sewage outfall. The stream and sewage wastes have a decay rate coefficient (k) of 0.5/d

ay (1st order units). Assuming complete mixing and no other water losses or gains, what is the steady-state pollutant concentration as mg/L in the lake? Incoming Stream: C = 10 mg/L, Q = 40 m^3/s Sewage Outfall: C = 100 ppm, Q = 0.5 m^3/s Lake: V= 200 m^3

Solution :

Given :

k = 0.5 per day

$C_s = 10 \ mg/L \ ; \ \ Q_s= 40 \ m^3/s$

$C_{sw} = 100 \ ppm \ ; \ \ Q_{sw}= 0.5 \ m^3/s$

Volume, V $= 200 \ m^3$

Now, input rate = output rate + KCV ------------- (1)

Input rate  $= Q_s C_s + Q_{sw}C_{sw}$

                $=(40 \times 10) + (0.5\times 100)$

                $= 2 \times 10^5 \ mg/s$

The output rate $= Q_m C_{m}$

                          = ( 40 + 0.5 ) x C x 1000

                          $=40.5 \times 10^3 \ C \ mg/s$

Decay rate = KCV

∴$KCV =\frac{0.5/d \times C \  \times 200 \times 1000}{24 \times 3600}$

            = 1.16 C mg/s

Substituting all values in (1)

$2 \times 10^5 = 40.5 \times 10^3 \ C+ 1.16 C$

C = 4.93 mg/L

True [87]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}&DF&SS&MS&F\\Regression&1&7200&7200&72\\Error&18&1800&100\\total&19&900\end{array}\right]

Explanation:

Sample size, n=20

Degrees of freedom is 1

Number of degrees of freedom for error is n-2 hence 20-2=18

Total number of degrees of freedom is 18+1=19

Standard error estimate is s_{y-x}=\sqrt {\frac {SSE}{n-2}}

Here, SSE=(n-2)s_{y-x}^{2}=(20-2)(10)^{2}=1800

Coefficient of determination r^{2}=\frac {SSE}{SS total}

Here, SSR=r^{2}(SSR+SSE)

SSR=\frac {r^{2}}{1-r^{2}} SSE=\frac {0.8}{1-0.8}(1800)=7200

The total sum of squares is

SS total=SSR+SSE=7200+1800=9000

MSR=SSR=7200

MSE=\frac {SSE}{n-2}=\frac {1800}{20-2}=100

F value is given by

F=\frac {MSR}{MSE}=\frac {7200}{100}=100

The ANOVA table is then  

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}&DF&SS&MS&F\\Regression&1&7200&7200&72\\Error&18&1800&100\\total&19&900\end{array}\right]

A model of a submarine, 1:15 scale, is to be tested at 180 ft/s in a wind tunnel with standard sea-level air, while theprototype
ella [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

scale i.e. L_r=1:15

Using Reynolds number similarity

(Re)_m=(Re)_p

(\frac{Vl}{\nu })_m=(\frac{Vl}{\nu })_p

Properties of air

\nu _{air}=1.57\times 10^{-4} ft/s

Properties of sea water

\nu _{sea}=1.26\times 10^{-5} ft/s

\left ( \frac{V_ml_M}{\nu _m}\right )=\left ( \frac{V_pl_p}{\nu _p}\right )

V_p=V_m\left ( \frac{l_m}{l_p}\right )\left ( \frac{\nu _p}{\nu _m}\right )

V_p=180\times \frac{1}{15}\times \frac{1.26\times 10^{-5}}{1.57\times 10^{-4}}

V_p=0.963\ ft/s

Do the coil resistances have any effect on the plots?
PolarNik [594]
Because of the skin depth effect, the current at high frequency tends to flow at very low depth from radius. Then at high frequency the effective cross section of the wire is narrower than at DC.

Fro example skin depth at 100 kHz is 0.206 mm (0.008”), a wire more thicker than AWG26 could be a waste of copper, better use a bunch of thin wire (Litz wire) to rise the Q factor.

Why is the face of the claw on a claw hammer usually a smooth curve? Why isn't it straight or some other shape?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The face of the claw on the claw hammer is usually a smooth curve so as to improve the ease with which nails are removed when removing nails because as the nail held between the V shaped split claw is being pulled out from the wood, it slides more and more towards cheek, reducing the distance of the nail from the cheek which is the fulcrum, thereby increasing the mechanical advantage because the location of the hand on the grip remains unchanged
