Statement 2: Measurement taken using Analytical balance is more precise than that of top loading balance.
Calculate the velocity gradient in a rapid mixer (coagulation), where the power input to the propeller is 0.5 kW, the plant provides water for 16000 people with average consumption of 160 L/person/day, retention time in rapid mixer is 26 s and water temperature is 20 oC. The dynamic viscosity at 20oC is 1x10-3 Pa/s. Debate the G value and if out of the range what steps to take bring G in the correct range
3. Two machines are used for filling plastic bottles with a net volume of 16.0 ounces. The fill volume can be assumed normal, with standard deviation σ1 = 0.020 and σ2 = 0.025 ounces. A member of the quality engineering staff suspects that both machines fill to the same mean net volume, whether or not this volume is 16.0 ounces. A random sample of 10 bottles is taken from the output of each machine.
