Sludge wasting rate (Qw) from the solids residence time (Thetac = mcrt) calculation. Given the following information from the previous problem. The total design flow is 15,000 m3/day. Theoretical hydraulic detention time (Theta) = 8 hours. The NPDES limit is 25 mg/L BOD/30 mg/L TSS.
Assume that the waste strength is 170 mg/L BOD after primary clarification.
XA=MLSS = 2200 mg/L,
Xw = Xu = XR = 6,600 mg/L,
qc = 8 days.
Make sure you account for the solids in the discharge.
What volume of sludge (Qw=m3/day) is wasted each day from the secondary clarifiers?
Answers
Answer:
The volume of sludge wasted each day from the secondary classifiers is Qw = 208.33 m^3 / day
Explanation:
Check the file attached for a complete solution.
The volume of the aeration tank was first calculated, V = 5000 m^3 / day.
The value of V was consequently substituted into the formula for the wasted sludge flow. The value of the wasted sludge flow was calculated to be Qw = 208.33 m^3 / day.

Find a negative feedback controller with at least two tunable gains that (1) results in zero steady state error when the input is a unit step (1/s).

Answer:
Gc(s) = [tex]\frac{0.1s + 0.28727}{s}[/tex]
Explanation:
comparing the standard approximation with the plot attached we can tune the PI gains so that the desired response is obtained. this is because the time requirement of the setting is met while the %OS requirement is not achieved instead a 12% OS is seen from the plot.

Create an abstract class DiscountPolicy. It should have a single abstract method computeDiscount that will return the discount for the purchase of a given number of a single item. The method has two parameters, count and itemCost. 2. Derive a class BulkDiscount from DiscountPolicy, as described in the previous exercise. It should have a constructor that has two parameters, minimum and percent. It should define the method computeDiscount so that if the quantity purchased of an item is more than minimum, the discount is percent percent. 3. Derive a class BuyNItemsGetOneFree from DiscountPolicy, as described in Exercise 1. The class should have a constructor that has a single parameter n. In addition, the class should define the method computeDiscount so that every nth item is free. For example, the following table gives the discount for the purchase of various counts of an item that costs $10, when n is 3: count 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Discount 0 0 10 10 10 20 20
4. Derive a class CombinedDiscount from DiscountPolicy, as described in Exercise 1. It should have a constructor that has two parameters of type DiscountPolicy. It should define the method computeDiscount to return the maximum value returned by computeDiscount for each of its two private discount policies. The two discount policies are described in Exercises 2 and 3. 5. Define DiscountPolicy as an interface instead of the abstract class described in Exercise 1.

Answer:
Java Code was used to define classes in the abstract discount policy,The bulk discount, The buy items get one free and the combined discount
Explanation:
Solution
Code:
Main.java
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
BulkDiscount bd=new BulkDiscount(10,5);
BuyNItemsGetOneFree bnd=new BuyNItemsGetOneFree(5);
CombinedDiscount cd=new CombinedDiscount(bd,bnd);
System.out.println("Bulk Discount :"+bd.computeDiscount(20, 20));
System.out.println("Nth item discount :"+bnd.computeDiscount(20, 20));
System.out.println("Combined discount :"+cd.computeDiscount(20, 20));
}
}
discountPolicy.java
public abstract class DiscountPolicy
{
public abstract double computeDiscount(int count, double itemCost);

Two Electric field vectors E1 and E2 are perpendicular to each other; obtain its base
vectors.
Answers
Answer:
<E1, E2>.
Explanation:
So, in the question above we are given that the Two Electric field vectors E1 and E2 are perpendicular to each other. Thus, we are going to have the i and the j components for the two Electric Field that is E1 and E2 respectively. That is to say the addition we give us a resultant E which is an arbitrary vector;
E = |E| cos θi + |E| sin θj. -------------------(1).
Therefore, if we make use of the components division rule we will have something like what we have below;
x = |E2|/ |E| cos θ and y = |E1|/|E| sin θ
Therefore, we will now have;
E = x |E2| i + y |E1| j.
The base vectors is then Given as <E1, E2>.
