Soda and lime are added to glass batch in the form of soda ash (Na2CO3) and limestone (CaCO3). During heating, these two ingredients decompose to give off carbon dioxide (CO2), the resulting products being soda and lime. Compute the weight of soda ash and limestone that must be added to 170 lbm of quartz (SiO2) to yield a glass of composition 74 wt% SiO2, 19 wt% Na2O, and 7 wt% Cao.

You are to compute the weight (in lbm) of soda ash and limestone that must be added to a certain amount of quartz to produce a particular glass composition. First, compute the lbm of both Na2O and CaO that is necessary for the particular glass composition that is given in the problem. What is the weight in lbm of:

a. Na2O:
b. CaO:

Afoot bridge is made as a simple deck, 4 m long, with a cross section 2 m (wide) and 20 cm thick, and made of wood. the deck is supported at the two ends. the maximum load allowable on the bridge is 10 tons, provided it is uniformly distributed on the deck. to sense this load, a strain gauge is placed at the center of the bridge and its resistance is monitored. if the sensor has a nominal resistance of 350 s2 and a gauge factor of 3.6, what is the reading of the strain gauge at maximum load? the modulus of elasticity for the wood used in the construction is 10 gpa.
