A sedimentation basin in a water treatment plant treats a flow of 6 mgd and has the following dimensions: L = 120’; W = 12’; D = 12’. Water is being treated at an average temperature of 20oC. a. Calculate the water detention time (in hours and minutes), horizontal velocity (in ft/min), and overflow rate (in gpd/ft2, gpm/ft2 and ft3/ft2-day).b. If a particle is to be 100% removed and has a specific gravity of 2.5, what is the corresponding particle diameter (in mm)? Is Stoke’s Law appropriate for this situation? Why or why not?

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Water in a partially filled large tank is to be supplied to the roof top, which is 8 m above the water level in the tank, through a 2.2-cm-internal-diameter pipe by maintaining a constant air pressure of 300 kpa (gage) in the tank. if the head loss in the piping is 2 m of water, determine the discharge rate of the supply of water to the roof top in liters per second.
