Assume that the water temperature is 10 oC and the settling tank has a 3-m depth. Calculate the theoretical settling velocity (m/s), overflow rate(m3/m2-d), and hydraulic detention time (h) required in the following cases. a. Calcium carbonate precipitates with a specific gravityof 1.2 and diameter of 0.1 mm. (These particles will be removed in a settler after precipitative softening, which is a process we will discuss later in the course.)b. Alum floc with a specific gravity of 1.002 and diameter of 1.0mm. (These particles are to be removed in a settling tankafter coagulation/flocculation, which are processes that we will discuss later in the course.)c. What will be the corresponding design loading rate and detention time for the above cases if the efficiency of the settling basins is 50%, assuming the removal is linearly related to efficiency?

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.

Water vapor initially at 10 bar and 400 °c is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. the water lost heat to the surrounding according to isochoric (iso-volumetric) process until its temperature is 150 °c. the water is then condensed isothermally to saturated liquid. for the water as a system, calculate the work in kj/kg
