A water-based slurry of mineral is being filtered under vacuum, with a controlled pressure drop of 50 kPa, through a filter paper of 0.09 m2 . The slurry is at 25 kg solids per m3 fluid. Use µ = 9.0 × 10−4 Pa.s and the following data:
V [L] t [s]
0.5 19
1 41
2 95
3 178
4 280
Calculate the medium resistance, Rm; specific cake resistance, a; and the time to produce 5 liters of filtrate.

Use the contact power theory to predict the maximum gas pressure
drop (in inches of water) across a scrubber which must be designed
to achieve 97% efficiency. Given: Gas Flow rate = 8000 acfm Liquid
Flow rate= 60 gal/min Liquid inlet pressure= 50 psi Alpha= 1.31
Beta= 1.12

Calculate the pressure drop (ft of water) over a distance of 800
ft within a PVC pipe carrying 750 ft3/min of landfill gas at 115
ºF. The cross-sectional area of the pipe interior is 0.0884 ft2 (d
= 4.026 in). Assume the pressure in the pipeline is close to
atmospheric (13.6 lb/in2) and the molecular weight of the gas is 28
lb/mol. Assume the gas is incompressible and the viscosity at 115 º
is 7.65×10^-6lb/ft·s. The pipe relative roughnessis 1.5x10-5....

Twenty samples were taken from a cable-weaving machine while it
was being operated under closely controlled conditions. The number
of defects per 100 meters for the samples is recorded below: 4, 4,
5, 3, 6, 2, 2, 4, 5, 3, 4, 2, 3, 2, 4, 5, 5, 7, 5, 3. Determine 3?
control limits for monitoring defects of the process.

A pot of water is boiling under one atmosphere of pressure.
Assume that heat enters the pot only through its bottom, which is
copper and rests on a heating element. In two minutes, the mass of
water boiled away is m = 3.5 kg. The radius of the pot bottom is R
= 10.0 cm and the thickness is L = 1.0 mm. What is the temperature
of the heating element in contact with the pot?

Spacecraft propulsion systems based on ‘solar sails’ are being
explored. These systems use radiation pressure on sails made of
thin reflecting foils (mirrors) for propulsion, similar to the way
wind propels a sailboat. (a) What sail area, A is required for the
radiation pressure provided by a star of mass Ms at a distance R to
just balance the gravitational attraction of the star? Take the
mass of the ship and its sail to be m, and the intensity of...

Water flows at a rate of 28 L/min through a horizontal
7.5-cm-diameter pipe under a pressure of 8.1 Pa. At one point,
calcium deposits reduce the cross-sectional area of the pipe to 33
cm^2. What is the pressure at this point? (consider the water to be
an ideal fluid.)

UK-based oil company BP was under pressure to reduce or
omit dividends on its ordinary shares as a result of a major oil
spill from one of its exploration wells in the Gulf of Mexico.
Subsequently, BP announced that it would omit some of its quarterly
dividend payments. Explain why the reduction in, or omission of,
BP's dividends may harm its shareholders.
