Chapter 2, Problem 2.17P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The mass in slugs and the weight in poundals of a 135 lbm woman (i) on earth and (ii) on the moon should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to Newton’s second law

F = ma

Where,

F = force m = mass and a = acceleration

1lbm×1ft/s2=132.174lbf

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The rate at which the object accelerates should be determined.

Concept introduction:

According to Newton’s second law

F=ma

1poundal=1lbm×1ft/s2=132.174lbf

1slug=32.174lbm

1. The settling chamber, shown schematically in Figure 2E1.1, is used as a primary separation device in the removal of dust particles of density 1500 kg/m³ from a gas of density 0:7 kg/m³ and viscosity 1.90 x 10-5 Pa s. Gas inlet Elevation Gas Gas exit exit H Collection surface -W Section X-X Dimensions: H=3m L = 10 m W=2m Figure 2E1.1 Schematic diagram of settling chamber Assuming Stokes' law applies, show that the efficiency of collection of particles of size x is given by the expression collection efficiency, x = x²8(pp - Pi)L 18μHU where U is the uniform gas velocity through the parallel-sided section of the chamber. State any other assumptions made. (b) What is the upper limit of particle size for which Stokes' law applies? (c) When the volumetric flow rate of gas is 0.9 m³/s, and the dimensions of the chamber are those shown in Figure 2E1.1, determine the collection efficiency for spherical particles of diameter 30 mm.
Can you answer this sequantially correct like show me the full process. Also, since it is chemical engineering related problem a perry's handbook is used. Thank you
chemical engineering  Demonstrate how each specific enthalpy was calculated, from the reference state to the process state.  Be thorough to the fullest.  This is a material-energy balance.  The answers are H(1) = 35.7 KJ/kmol, H(2) = 32.0 KJ/kmol, and H(3) = -1.26 KJ/kmol.
