Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a common groundwater contaminant. Based on an adult ingesting the water under residential exposure parameters, which of the following presents the greatest cancer risk:

a. to drink unchlorinated groundwater with 10 ppb of TCE
b. to switch to a surface water supply that, as a result of chlorination, has a chloroform concentration of 50 ppb

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To drink unchlorinated groundwater with 10 ppb of TCE ( A )

Explanation:

The option that presents the greatest cancer  risk for ingesting water

contaminated with Trichloroethylene under the residential exposure parameters is to drink unchlorinated groundwater with 10 ppb of TCE

This is because suitable water for drinking  has chloroform concentration that ranges from 4 to 44 ppb but drinking under groundwater with ppb value above 4 ppb will have a more severe damage to the body

6. Find the heat flow in 24 hours through a refrigerator door 30.0" x 58.0" insulated with cellulose fiber 2.0" thick. The temperature inside the refrigerator is 38°F. Room temperature is 72°F. [answer in BTUs]

Answers

Answer:

The heat flow in 24 hours through the refrigerator door is approximately 1,608.57 BTU

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The duration of the heat transfer, t = 24 hours = 86,400 seconds

The area of the refrigerator door, A = 30.0" × 58.0" = 1,740 in.² = 1.122578 m²

The material of the insulator in the door = Cellulose fiber

The thickness of the insulator in the door, d = 2.0" = 0.0508 m

The temperature inside the fridge = 38° F = 276.4833 K

The temperature of the room = 78°F = 298.7056 K

The thermal conductivity of cellulose fiber = 0.040 W/(m·K)

By Fourier's law, the heat flow through a by conduction material is given by the following formula;

[tex]\dfrac{Q}{t} = \dfrac{k \cdot A \cdot (T_2 - T_1) }{d}[/tex]

[tex]Q = \dfrac{k \cdot A \cdot (T_2 - T_1) }{d} \times t[/tex]

Therefore, we have;

[tex]Q = \dfrac{0.04 \times 1.122578 \times (298.7056 - 276.4833 ) }{0.0508} \times 86,400 =1,697,131.73522[/tex]

The heat flow in 24 hours through the refrigerator door, Q = 1,697,131.73522 J = 1,608.5705140685 BTU

A thin silicon chip and an 8-mm-thick aluminum substrate are separated by a 0.02-mm-thick epoxy joint. The chip and substrate are each 10 mm on a side, and their exposed surfaces are cooled by air, which is at a temperature of 25 C and provides a convection coefficient of 100 W/m2 K. If the chip dissipates 104 W/m2 under normal conditions, will it operate below a maximum allowable temperature of 85 C

Answers

Answer:

The chip will operate below a maximum allowable temperature of 85°C

Explanation:

Given data:

8-mm-thick aluminum

0.02 mm-thick epoxy joint

chip and substrate = 10 mm on a side

temperature = 25°C

attached below is a detailed solution

Tc = 75.3 ° c   which is less than 85°c . hence the chip will operate below a maximum allowable temperature of 85°C

The dry weather average flow rate for a river is 8.7 m3/s. During dry weather flow, the average COD concentration in the river is 32 mg/L. An industrial source continuously discharges 18,000 m3/d of wastewater contains an average 342 mg/L COD concentration into the river. What is the COD mass loading in the river upstream of the industrial source discharge

Answers

Answer:

6156 kg /day

Explanation:

Determine the COD mass loading in the river upstream of the industrial source discharge

Given data:

Flow rate of river = 8.7 m^3/s

Average COD concentration in river = 32 mg/L

Industrial source continuous discharge ( Qw )= 18,000 m^3/d

Yw = 342 mg/l

since :

1 m^3 = 1000 liters

Qw = 18 * 10^6  liters = ( 18 million per day )

Hence the COD mass loading

= Yw * Qw

= 342 * 18 liters

= 6156 kg /day
