Consider three lakes in series with a pulse (instantaneous) input of a conservative contaminant into lake 1 that results in an initial concentration of 10 mg/l. lakes 2 and 3 initially have no contaminant initially. the inflow to lake 1 contains no contaminant. the hydraulic residence time of each lake is 3 months. write the appropriate mass balance equations and derive an equation (by solving the differential equations) for the concentration in each lake as a function of time. you can solve the mass balance equations sequentially. remember, the inflow concentration to the second lake is the outflow concentration from the first, and the inflow concentration to the third lake is the outflow concentration from the second.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
