Investigate the mass flow rate of water through the Mississippi River during a normal year, and write a brief report discussing your findings. Explain flooding using the conservation of mass statement.
An oil refinery is willing to install a 60,000-lb/hour pump for $325,000 in 2020 when the pump index had a value of 500. the refinery must also install another pump of the same size in 2024. Economic data shows that the pump index is forecast to rise by 5% annually. What is the pump index value in 2024.
A wastewater treatment operator uses the formula
A=8.34FC
to determine the amount A of chlorine in pounds to add to a basin. The flow F through the basin is in millions of gallons per day, and the desired concentration C of chlorine is in parts per million. If
1600
pounds of chlorine was added to a basin with a flow rate of
7.5
million gallons per day, what would be the resulting concentration?

- What is the mode if water consumption of household in cubic meters for 8 months are 12, 24, 15,12,16,24 and 14?arrow_forwardA city has 3,400,000 capita and current domestic demand is 185 liter/capita/day. The population average increase is 20,000 capita per decade; and the increase is also estimated as 1.35%. The average consumption of water increases by 22% in summer and decreases by 18% in winter. There are industrial and commercial activities in this city. Forecast future population by two methods. Calculate the average domestic demand for this city after 50 years in normal, summer and winter days. Estimate the firefighting demand. Then calculate total average water demand. Finally determine the maximum hourly and maximum daily demands.arrow_forwardsolve this ASAP... I will rate positivelyarrow_forward
- Water is available at a rate of 2000 L/min to a small apartment complex, consisting of four units. If at a given time units 1, 2, and 3 are consuming 9 kg/s, 7 kg/s, and 8 kg/s, respectively, how much water is available to unit 4? Express your answer in m s/ 3 and kg/s. There is an answer already posted to this question, but the explaination is confusing how they put the numbers.arrow_forwardA small lake in a state park has become polluted by runoff from a factory upstream.

How many pounds od substance per day pass a given spot downstream?arrow_forwardIchetucknee Springs is a Florida State Park that is about 30 miles northwest of Gainesville. One of the most popular activities in the park is floating down the Ichetucknee River in an inner tube. Given that the river is about 40 feet wide, 6 miles long, and the water is 72°F, calculate the average velocity of the water (in meters/second) if it takes a tuber 3 hours to float from the launch to the exit. Then, calculate the average volumetric flow rate in (m3/second) of the water, making sure to clearly state all assumptions.arrow_forward
