Units and Quantities Velocity and distance If you drive 50 mph for two hours, how far do you go? If you drive 50 mph for two hours, how far do you go? 2 hr x 50 mi/hr = 100 mi (duh)2 hr x 50 mi/hr = 100 mi (duh) If you drive 120 miles in 3 hours, what’s your average speed? If you drive 120 miles in 3 hours, what’s your average speed? 120 mi / 3 hr = 40 mph120 mi / 3 hr = 40 mph distance = v. t is important distance = v. t is important pipe flowpipe flow stream flowstream flow

Units and Quantities Mass transported Mass/Time = Q. C Mass/Time = Q. C vol/time x mass/vol = mass/timevol/time x mass/vol = mass/time If Fayetteville wastewater plant discharges 18 MGD of water containing 2 mg/L phosphorus, how much phosphorus (kg, lbs) is discharged per day and per year? If Fayetteville wastewater plant discharges 18 MGD of water containing 2 mg/L phosphorus, how much phosphorus (kg, lbs) is discharged per day and per year? Mass/Time = Q. C = 18 x 10 6 gal/day x 2 mg/L x 3.8 L/gal x 1g/1000 mg x 1kg/1000 gMass/Time = Q. C = 18 x 10 6 gal/day x 2 mg/L x 3.8 L/gal x 1g/1000 mg x 1kg/1000 g = 137 kg/day = 137 kg/day x 365 = ~ 50,000 kg/yr x 365 = ~ 50,000 kg/yr 18 MGD x 2 mg/L x (8.34 lb/MG)/mg/L18 MGD x 2 mg/L x (8.34 lb/MG)/mg/L = 300 lb/day = 300 lb/day x 1 kg/2.2 lb = 137 kg/dayx 1 kg/2.2 lb = 137 kg/day
