Case Study 8-1 Great Lakes Carriers OVERVIEW: With the demand for Great Lakes Carrier’s traditional commodities of iron ore and grain movement on a constant decline‚ Great Lakes Carrier is in need of a new market for its bulk cargo business to stay in business. CASE QUESTIONS: 1 When considering a new business venture‚ Great Lakes Carriers (GLC) will need to gather vital marketing data to support the transition. Issues to consider would include: will the current market support a new waterway

(v1). Using the density of water (1.0g/mL)‚ this volume can be converted into mass. This concept is shown by the equation [M= (v2-v1) x (1.0g/ml)]. To determine the energy consumed by the melting ice (E)‚ we must determine the energy released by the water to make the ice to melt. This energy can be determined by using the equation to calculate the energy of the temperature changes. The mass of the water releasing heat is determined by multiplying the initial volume (v1) by the density of water (1.0g/mL)

Chemistry design: Fuel energy lab Research question: What is the energy density of cyclohexane‚ and how does it compare to the energy density of normal hexane? Variables: Independent variable – The independent variable in this experiment will be the type of fuel that will be used. This will be either Hexane or Cyclohexane. Each type will be given to us and labelled so it will be quite simple to control this variable. This cannot be measured using any apparatus so the lab assistant must be entrusted

ASSIGNMENT OF SEED PROCESSING ON GRAVITY SEPARATOR AND COLOR SORTER Submitted to Dr. Yadvika Submitted by Aman Dhillon 2009AE05BIV Color Sorter Separation Principle Electronic color sorters separate seed by differences in color. Each seed is viewed and electronically compared with a pre-selected color background‚ and accepted or rejected. The color sorter can also separate off-color mud balls‚ other seed kinds and discolored or other-variety crop seed whose color is different from that
