For the problem described below, please fully sketch the scenario described in
the problem statement, characterize the mass balance (conservative vs non-
conservative and steady-state vs not at steady-state) giving reasons for your
characterization of the system, and locate the mass balance in both space and
time. Please DO NOT solve the problem.
Coming home after the end of the winter semester, you find that your family's
swimming pool has not be maintained well. In particular, it has no chlorine
residual at all, and it is full of tree leaves. You buy a concentrated chlorine
solution (1% as Cl₂) and begin to meter it into the pool at a rate of 100 mL/hour.
The pool has a volume of 200 m³. You also add new water, and remove in-pool
water, at a rate of 3.785 L/minute. The chlorine reacts with the organic matter in
the with a rate of 0.5/hour. How long will it take to get the Cl2 residual up to 1
mg/L if you add Cl2 continously.
Center of mass by integrals.
Find the center of mass of a uniform wire that subtends a circular arc of radius a. as shown in the image, knowing that it has uniform density.
Please explain step by step with the complete integrals, in this exercise I do not understand why in X and in Y my teacher gives x=rcosθ y=rsenθ, when the angle in the exercise is θ/2,
Two particles of mass m1 = 1.4 kg and m2 = 2.9 kg undergo a one-dimensional head-on collision as shown in the figure below. Their initial velocities aling x are v1i = 11 m/s and v2i = -7.2 m/s. The two particles stick together after the collision (a completely inelastic collision). (Assume to the right as the positive direction).
a) Find the velocity after the collision.
answer is - 1.27 m/s
b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?
