The purification of hydrogen gas by diffusion through a palladium sheet was discussed in section 5.3. compute the number of kilo- grams of hydrogen that pass per hour through

a 6-mm-thick sheet of palladium having an area of 0.25 m2 at 600? ? c. assume a diffusion coefficient of 1.7 ? ? 10? ? 8 m2/s, that the con- centrations at the high- and low-pressure sides of the plate are 2.0 and 0.4 kg of hy- drogen per cubic meter of palladium, and that steady-state conditions have been attained.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

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.
