PROCESS CONTROL - EXAMPLE 6.3 : The differential equation is 3 dy / dt + 2y = 1 with y(0) = 1. (a) The Laplace transformation, L for given terms are : L (dy / dt) = sY(s) - y(0), L(y) = Y(s), L(1) = 1 / s. Use such transformation to find Y(s). (b) The initial value theorem states that : When t approaches 0 for a function of y(t), it is equal to a function of sY(s) when s approaches infinity. Use the initial value theorem as a check to the answer found in part (a).

PROCESS CONTROL - ANSWER 6.3 : (a) For the equation 3 dy / dt + 2y = 1, its Laplace transformation is 3 [ sY(s) - y(0) ] + 2Y(s) = 1 / s, 3 (sY - 1) + 2Y = 1 / s, 3sY - 3 + 2Y = 1 / s, 3sY + 2Y = 1 / s + 3, Y (3s + 2) = (1 + 3s) / s. Y = Y(s) = (1 + 3s) / [ s (3s + 2) ]. (b) Initial value theorem states that y(0) = sY(infinity), then 1 = s (1 + 3s) / [ s (3s + 2) ] = (1 + 3s) / (3s + 2) approaches 1 when the value of s approaches infinity. The checking is correct.

Question 72 - (a) According to United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) (http://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/search/list, accessed 12 August 2016), 100 g of potatoes generate 77 kcal of energy. For raw tomatoes, 111 g have 18 kcal of energy. Question : How much energy will one gain if 150 g of heated potatoes are eaten with 200 g of raw tomatoes? (b) If 1 Calorie = 1 food Calorie = 1 kilocalorie and 1000 calories = 1 food Calorie, then how many Calories are there in 9600 calories? (c) According to a food package of potato chips, 210 Calories are produced per serving size of 34 g. In actual experiment of food calorimetry lab, 1.75 g of potato chips, when burnt, will produce 9.6 Calories. For each serving size of potato chip, find the difference of Calories between the actual experimental value and the value stated on the food package. (d) The specific heat of water is c = 1 cal / (g.K) where cal is calory, g is gram and K is Kelvin. Then what is the temperature rise of water, in degree Celsius, when 150 g of water is heated by 9600 calories of burning food?
