Suppose identical solid spheres are distributed through space in such a way that their centers are lie on the points of a lattice, and spheres on neighboring points just touch without overlapping. (Such an arrangement of spheres is called a close-packing arrangement.) Assuming that the spheres have unit density, show that the density of a set of close-packed spheres on each of the four structures (the "packing fraction") is: fcc: bcc: √√2/6=0.74 √√3/8=0.68 SC: π/6=0.52 √√3/16=0.34 diamond:arrow_forwardDon't use chatgpt will upvotearrow_forwardDon't Use Chat GPT Will Upvote And Give Handwritten Solution Pleasearrow_forward

How long will it take the water heater to heat a 67 gallon tank of water from 10 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius? (1 kilogram of water is 0.37 gallons, 1 Calorie = 4200 J). It may be helpful to refer back to the weekly handout for guidance on this problem. Your final answer should be in minutes (rounded to the nearest 10 minutes).arrow_forwarda) Let R represent the reaction force at Support B. By releasing the beam at Support B and imposing a force R at Point B, the deflection of the beam consists of two parts,i.e. Part I- the deflection caused by MB ; Part II- the deflection caused by R Please treat R, w, h , L , E as variables in this step , the mathematical equation for the deflection at Point B caused by R ( Part II) can be written as (Hint : to input equation R2LQ2wh , you can type (R^2*L)/(Q^2*w*h) ) b) Using the provided data: cross-section width w = 20 mm, cross-section hight h = 93 mm, length of the beam L =3 m , beam material’s Young’s modulus Q =226 GPa, applied bending moment MB = 11 kN.m The value of the deflection at Point B caused by MB ( Part I) can be calculated as ......(in mm)arrow_forward
- A cable is attached to a 1.40 kg block A, is looped over a fixed peg at C, and is attached to plate B.(Figure 1) The coefficient of static friction between the plate and the block is u4 = 0.150, the coefficient of static friction between the plate and the inclined plane is uR = 0.300, and the coefficient of static friction between the cable and the peg is uç = 7.00x10-2. If the plane's angle is 30.0 degrees, what is the maximum mass that plate B can have such that it does not slide down the plane?

Two process streams are mixed to produce one of the feeds for our chemical reactor. After mixing, the blended stream is fed to a heating vessel before being sent to the reactor.

The concentration of A in stream 1 is 1 g/L. and in stream 2 is 4 g/L. At 3:00 P.M. the shift changes at the plant. The new operator on our unit misreads the flowmeters for the process and switches the flow rates of the two streams. Stream 1 is switched to 20 L/min, and stream 2 is switched to 10 L/min. At 3:30 P.M. the shift supervisor hurries to the control room to determine the source of the problem now being experiencing with the reactor. 1.
