A liquid feed at the boiling point con taine 33 mol % ethanol and 96.7 mol % water and enters the top tray of a stripping tower. Saturated steam is injected directly into liquid in the bottom of the tower. The overhead vapor which is withdrawn contains 99% of the alcohol in the feed. Assume equimolar overflow for this problem. Equilibrium data for mole fraction of alcoh are as follows at 101.32 kPa abs pressure (1 atm abs): x y x y
0 0 0.0296 0.250
0.0080 0.0750 0.033 0.270
0.020 0.175

Required:
a. For an infinite number of theoretical steps, calculate the minimum steam needed per mole of feed.
b. Using twice the minimum moles of steam, calculate the number of theoretical steps needed.

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.
