2. A wood pole with a diameter of 1 inch has a moisture content of 5%. The fiber saturation point (FSP) for this wood is 30%. The wood shrinks or swells 1% in the radial direction for every 5% change in moisture content below FSP. а. What would be the percent change in the wood's diameter if the wood's moisture is increased to 55%? b. Would the wood swell or shrink? С. What would be the new diameter?
7. A commercial laundry is considering constructing an ion exchange process to remove hardness from the water. The flow required is 1000 m/day and they use city water which contains 200 mg/l as CaCO3 of calcium and 100 mg/l as CACO3 of magnesium. Total hardness should be reduced to 80 mg/l as CaCO3. The resin has a Total Hardness (TH) capacity of 60 kg TH/m³ of media and the recommended hydraulic loading rate is 0.5 m/min-m2. (a) What is the water flow rate (m/d) that need to be treated ? (b) What is the total daily resin volume (m') required to soften the water? And (c) What is the area of exchanger bed needed.
•Sam, the strawberry producer, has had complaints from the produce company that his strawberries are damaged during transit. Sam would like to know the force required to damage the strawberries if they are stacked three deep in their container. •The damage occurs on the bottom layer at the interface with the parallel surface of the container and also at the point of contact between the layers of strawberries. •An hydrostatic bulk compression test on a sample of Sam's strawberries indicates an average bulk modulus of 225 psi. Testing of specimens from Sam's strawberry crop shows a compression modulus E of 200 psi. The average strawberry diameter is 1.25 inches and the axial deformation due to the damage in transit averages 0.23 inches. The modulus of elasticity for Sam's variety of strawberries is reported to be 130 psi. •Estimate the force Sam's strawberries may be encountering during transit. (Hertz method)
