Question (a) Estimate the transition length at the entrance to a 15-mm tube through which 100 percent glycerol at 60°C is flowing at a velocity of 0.3 m/s. The density of glycerol is 1,240 kg/m3. (b) Repeat part (a) for 100 percent n-propyl alcohol entering a 3-in. pipe at 30°C and a velocity of 7 ft/s. The density of n-propyl alcohol is 50 lb/ft?.

A 100 kg batch of granular solids containing 30 per cent of moisture is to be dried in a tray dryer to 15.5 per cent moisture by passing a current of air at 350 K tangentially across its surface at the velocity of 1.8 m/s. If the constant rate of drying under these conditions is 0.7 g/sm and the critical moisture content is 15 per cent, calculate the A 100 kg batch of granular solids containing 30 per cent of moisture is to be dried in a tray dryer to 15.5 per cent moisture by passing a current of air at 350 K tangentially across its surface at the velocity of 1.8 m/s. If the constant rate of drying under these conditions is 0.7 g/sm and the critical moisture content is 15 per cent, calculate the approximate drying time. It may be assumed that the drying surface is 0.03 m²/kg dry mass

The normal force of the trailer on the box The gravitational pull of the trailer on the box The gravitational pull of the trailer on Earth The normal force of the road on the trailer The weight of the trailer The normal force of the trailer on the road The gravitational pull of the box on Earth The weight of the box

Suppose that a company is developing a new touch-screen cell phone. Historically, 70% of their new phones have resulted in high consumer demand, whereas 30% have resulted in low consumer demand. The company has the decision of choosing between two models with different features that require different amount of investment and have different sales potential. Estimated profit/loss are shown in the payoff table below. State of Nature High demand, ($) Low demand, ($) Model 1 300,000 -40,000 Model 2 275,000 -15000 Now suppose the firm conducts a market research study to obtain sample information and better understand the nature of consumer demand. The market research cost $10,000 Analysis of past market research studies, conducted prior to introducing similar products, has found that the survey response will be either high or low. There is a 69% chance that the survey will return a high survey response (results) and there is a 31% chance that the survey will result in lo-demand response (results). The relevant conditional probabilities are as follows: P (high consumer demand, high survey response = 0.913) P (low consumer demand, low survey response = 0.087) P (high consumer demand, high survey response = 0.226) P (low consumer demand, low survey response = 0.774) Calculate the expected value of sample information (EVSI).
