(a)
Interpretation:
The speed of head of the hammer at which it must be travelling at the moment of impact to ring the bell is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
The kinetic energy of the hammer is calculated by the formula,
The transfer of energy from hammer to the metal ball takes place when a pedal is hit hard by a hammer. The speed of metal ball can reduce if the friction between metal ball and surface of the pole is more.
(b)
Interpretation:
The three assumptions made to solve Part (a) and their impact on solution is to be stated.
Concept introduction:

The system operates at 90 °C and 40 bar, and external mass transfer resistance is negligible. The rate-limiting step is electron transfer at the mineral surface, governed by Marcus theory, with λ = 0.75 eV, ΔG° = –0.30 eV, and k₀ = 10⁶ s⁻¹. The Mg²⁺ activity coefficient is γ = 0.76 (from PHREEQC with Pitzer model). For Mg₂SiO₄ + 4 H⁺ → 2 Mg²⁺ + SiO₂(aq) + 2 H₂O, determine the total moles of Mg²⁺ released after 10 minutes at steady state.arrow_forward
- In baseball, batters frequently attempt to hit a ball as far as possible. However, baseballs are inelastic with an officially required "coefficient of restitution" CR ≈ 0.55 on ash wood. The coefficient of restitution of a dropped ball iswhere H is the initial drop height, h is the max. height on the rebound, and h ≈ 2πH tan δ for a homogeneous material.

- A 0.45 mol/kg aqueous solution of 3-(methylamino)propylamine and 1-methylpiperazine (1:1 molar) flows at 0.5 g/s through a 2.5 m horizontal stainless steel coil (inner diameter 1.2 mm), entering at 358.15 K and 22 MPa and exiting at 20 MPa. A constant wall heat flux of 28 W is applied. Local density and isobaric heat capacity are obtained through from the Benedict–Webb–Rubin equation of state, with a 3% increase in heat capacity to account for wall sorption. Dynamic viscosity is obtained using the Green-Kubo relation with a given integral value of 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ Pa².s, and thermal conductivity is assumed constant. The local Nusselt number is corrected for thermal development using Nu(x) = 3.66 + (0.065 · Gz(x)^0.7) / (1 + 0.04 · Gz(x)^0.7), where Gz(x) = D · Re(x) · Pr(x) / x.

Antibiotic P is a compound secreted by microorganism A during the stationary phase. To produce P, substrate S is required. The growth of microorganism A follows the Monod equation, with a maximum specific growth rate $\mu_m = 1 h^{-1}$ and a half-saturation constant $K_s = 700\ mg/L$.The pilot process uses a chemostat with a working volume of $1000\ L$. In this chemostat, the outflow is processed to separate microorganisms, which are then concentrated tenfold and recycled. A sterile medium containing $15\ g/L$ of substrate is supplied at a flow rate of $100\ L/h$, while the recycled flow (concentrated) contains $5\ g/L$ and is also fed into the chemostat.Microorganism A yields $0.5\ g$ of biomass per $1\ g$ of substrate consumed $(Y^M_{X/S} = 0.5\ g\ A/g\ S)$, and its death rate $(k_d)$ is negligible. Additionally, $1\ g$ of microorganism A produces $0.05\ g$ of antibiotic P per hour $(q_P = 0.05 g\ P/h\cdot g\ A)$, and $1\ g$…arrow_forwardIn the production of ethyl acetate via reactive distillation, the column operates at 5 bar with an equimolar feed (ethanol + acetic acid) at 80°C.
