A system of seven river segments is shown in the schematic diagram. The Riβs, Qiβs, and Ciβs (i = 1 to 7) are the river segments, their corresponding flow rates, and concentrations of a conservative pollutant, respectively. Assume complete mixing at the intersections, no additional water loss or gain in the system, and steady state condition. Given: Q1 = 5 m3/s ; Q2 = 15 m3/s ; Q4 = 3 m3/s ; Q6 = 8 m3/s ; C1 = 8 kg/m3; C2 = 12 kg/m3; C6 = 10 kg/m3. What is the steady state concentration (in kg/m3, rounded off to two decimal place) of the pollutant in the river segment 7 ? ______
The pressure in a pipe at X is to be measured by an open manometer as shown in figure. Fluid A is oil with a specific gravity of 0.8 and Fluid B is mercury with a specific gravity of 13.6. The absolute pressure at X is ________ kN/m2 (round off to one decimal place).
[Assume density of water as 1000 kg/m3 and acceleration due to gravity as 9.81 m/s2 and atmospheric pressure as 101.3 kN/m2]
