A small village is located near a stream which is to be used as the source of water supply for

the community. The minimum flow in the stream is 550 m3/h. The population analysis

reveals that the population is expected to increase linearly from a population of 10,000 in

2008 to 30,000 in 2058.

The water consumption of the community is estimated to reach an annual average demand

of 300 L/capita/day, a maximum daily demand of 1.8 times the annual average and peak

hourly demand of 1.5 times the daily average.

Would you be able to supply these demands directly from the stream? If not, what would

you recommend?

a) In the year 2030

b) In the year 2058

A) Determine the tension in the string B) what is the linear acceleration of the bucket? C) What is the angular acceleration of the spool? D)How much torque was required to make the spook spin at this acceleration? E)How far does the bucket ravel when it reaches the water? F)Through how many radians does the spool spin in this time? G)What is the final angular velocity of the spool? H) What is the final linear velocity of the spool?

Samuelson and Messenger (SAM) began 2021 with 360 units of its one product. These units were purchased near the end of 2020 for $20 each. During the month of January, 180 units were purchased on January 8 for $23 each and another 360 units were purchased on January 19 for $25 each. Sales of 170 units and 270 units were made on January 10 and January 25, respectively. There were 460 units on hand at the end of the month. SAM uses a periodic inventory system. Required: 1. Calculate ending inventory and cost of goods sold for January using FIFO. 2. Calculate ending inventory and cost of goods sold for January using average cost.
