A 3.5-m3 rigid tank initially contains air whose density is 2 kg/m3 . The tank is connected to a high-pressure supply line throu

gh a valve. The valve is opened, and air is allowed to enter the tank until the density in the tank rises to 6.5 kg/m3 . Determine the mass of air that has entered the tank.

Answer:

Explanation:

First, we find the mass of the air originally in the tank.

Density is given as mass divided by volume. It is given as:

$Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$

Therefore, mass is:

$mass = denisty *volume$

Density of air = $2 kg/m^3$ ; Volume of the tank = $3.5 m^3$

$=> Mass = 3.5 * 2 = 7 kg$

The mass of the air initially in the tank is 7 kg.

After air is allowed to enter, the mass changes.

New density = $6.5 kg/m^3$

The new mass will be:

$Mass = 6.5 * 3.5 = 22.75 kg$

We can now find the mass of air that has entered the tank:

Mass of air that entered tank = New mass of air - Original mass of air

M = 22.75 - 7.0 = 15.75 kg

The mass of air that entered the tank is 15.75 kg.

What process is used to remove collodal and dissolved organic matter in waste water

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Aerobic biological treatment process

Explanation:

Aerobic biological treatment process in which micro-organisms, in the presence of oxygen, metabolize organic waste matter in the water, thereby producing more micro-organisms and inorganic waste matter like CO₂, NH₃ and H₂O.

1.8 A water flow of 4.5 slug/s at 60 F enters the condenser of steam turbine and leaves at 140 F. Determine the heat transfer ra

Ann [662]

Answer:

$Hr=4.2*10^7\ btu/hr$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Water flow Rate $R=4.5slug/s=144.78ib/sec$

Initial Temperature $T_1=60 \textdegree F$

Final Temperature $T_2=140 \textdegree F$

Let

Specific heat of water $\gamma= 1$

And

$\triangle T= 140-60$

$\triangle T= 80\ Deg.F$

Generally the equation for Heat transfer rate of water $H_r$ is mathematically given by

Heat transfer rate to water= mass flow rate* specific heat* change in temperature

$H_r=R* \gamma*\triangle T$

$H_r=144.78*80*1$

$H_r=11582.4\ btu/sec$

Therefore

$H_r=11582.4\ btu/sec*3600$

$Hr=4.2*10^7\ btu/hr$

An elevation is.... * 10 points a. A detailed description of requirements, composition and materials for a proposed building. b.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

b. A view of a building seen from one side, a flat representation of one façade. This is the most common view used to describe the external appearance of a building.

Explanation:

An elevation is a three-dimensional, orthographic, architectural projection that reveals just a side of the building. It is represented with diagrams and shadows are used to create the effect of a three-dimensional image.

It reveals the position of the building from ground-depth and only the outer parts of the structure are illustrated. Elevations, building plans, and section drawings are always drawn together by the architects.
