A surface water source has a total dissolved solids (TDS) concentration of 400 mg/L and is to be treated with reverse osmosis to produce a water that is 25 mg/L (TDS). If the membrane has an average salt rejection ratio of 0.95, what water recovery ratio should the membrane system achieve?

The force on a cutting tool are 2600n vertically downward and 2100 horizontal. determine the resultant force acting on the tool and the angle at which it acts.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
