Due: 25-12-2023 23:59

Refer to the student list at the end. Then get your serial number modulus 8 to get the question you are
going to attempt. For example Moazzam Ali (FA21-BEE-008) got the serial number 10 of his respective
class, his question is (10%8= 2 ).

Please follow the instructions as follows.

1. Grading will be done based on your complete solution

2. There are three parts of each question
a. Solving the Engineering Problem (10)
b. Minimize the Error (05)
c. Implement it using Python (10)
3. Complete each part and graded accordingly.
4. Deliverable will be a report with description of the problem. Your solution (Use scanned paper
or Microsoft Equation to write equations), as well as the complete code with outputs in the
appendix of the report (at the end). Submit the report.

Find the questions below.

1. A mass balance for a pollutant in a well-mixed lake can be written as

Given the parameter values V = 2 × 106 m3, Q = 2 × 105 m3/yr, W = 2 × 106 g/yr, and
k = 0.33 m0.5/g0.5/yr, use the modified secant method to solve for the steady-state concentration.
Employ an initial guess of c = 4 g/m3 and δ = 0.5. Perform three iterations and determine the
percent relative error after the third iteration.

2. The heat flux across a pond’s surface, J(W∕m2), which depends on a combination of five heat-
transfer processes, can be computed as:
 where Jsn = net solar shortwave radiation at the water surface (W∕m2), eair = the air vapor pressure
(mm Hg), σ = the Stefan Boltzmann constant = 11.7 × 10−8 cal∕(cm2 d K4), Tair = air temperature
(°C), Tw = the pond’s water temperature (°C), f(Uw) = the dependence of the transfer on wind
velocity over the water surface, Uw = the wind speed above the water surface (m∕s), and es = the
saturation vapor pressure at the water surface (mmHg). The saturation vapor pressure is
computed as

where Tdew = the dew-point temperature (°C). Determine the water temperature and evaporation
flux at steady state (J = 0) given the following values: Jsn = 300 cal∕cm2∕d; Tair = 25°C; Tdew = 16.7°C;
and Uw = 3 m∕s.

3. Real mechanical systems may involve the deflection of nonlinear springs. In the figure, a mass m
is released a distance h above a nonlinear spring. The resistance force F of the spring is given by

Conservation of Energy can be used to show that

Solve for d given the following parameter values:

k1 = 40,000 g∕s2,
k2 = 40 g∕(s2 m0.5), m = 95 g, g = 9.81 m∕s2, and h = 0.43 m.
4. An electronics company produces transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor
requires four units of copper, one unit of zinc, and two units of glass. Each resistor requires three,
three, and one units of the three materials, respectively, and each computer chip requires two,
one, and three units of these materials, respectively. Putting this information into table form, we
get:

Supplies of these materials vary from week to week, so the company needs to determine a
different production run each week. For example, one week the total amounts of materials
available are 960 units of copper, 510 units of zinc, and 610 units of glass. Set up the system of
equations modeling the production run, and use Python to solve for the number of transistors,
resistors, and computer chips to be manufactured this week

5. A civil engineer involved in construction requires 4800, 5800, and 5700 m3 of sand, fine gravel,
and coarse gravel, respectively, for a building project. There are three pits from which these
materials can be obtained. The composition of these pits is

How many cubic meters must be hauled from each pit in order to meet the engineer’s needs?
6. Temperatures are measured at various points on a heated plate. Estimate the temperature at (a)
x = 4, y = 3.2, and (b) x = 4.3, y = 2.7

Temperature (C) at various points on a square heated plate.

7. An 11-m beam is subjected to a load, and the shear force is given by the equation

where V is the shear force and x is length in distance along the beam. We know that V = dM∕dx,
and M is the bending moment. Integration yields the relationship

If M0 is zero and x = 11, calculate M. Use

a) Analytical Integration (old school method)
b) Trapezoidal Rule (Single and Multiple Application)
c) Simpson’s 1/3 Rule (Single and Multiple Application)

8. Suppose that the upward force of air resistance on a falling object is proportional to the square
of the velocity. For this case, the velocity can be computed as

where cd = a second-order drag coefficient. (a) If g = 9.81 m/s2, m = 68.1 kg, and cd = 0.25 kg/m,
use analytical integration to determine how far the object falls in 10 s. (b) Make the same
evaluation, but
evaluate the integral with the multiple-segment trapezoidal rule. Use a sufficiently high n that you
get three significant digits of accuracy.
