1. A ball mill of diameter = 1.5 m and length = 2 m is to be charged with

40% of its volume alumina balls of specific gravity = 3.2. It is used to
dry grind limestone of bulk density = 1600 kg.m . Estimate the mass of
balls and that of charge. (Void ratio between balls = 0.45)

Plot the cumulative distribution given in Table 28.2 on logarithmic-

probability paper. Is the plot linier over any range of particle size?

How does the amount of fine material (smaller than 20-mesh) differ
from what would be predicted from the size distribution of the
coarser material?

3. Trap rock is crushed in a gyratory crusher. The feed is nearly uniform 2- in spheres.
The differential screen analysis of the product is given in column (1) of Table 29.5.
The power required to crush this material is 400 kW/ton. Of this 10 kW is needed to
operate the empty mill. By reducing the clearance between the crushing head and
the cone, the differential screen analysis of the product becomes that given in
column (2) in Table 29.5. The feed rate 115 tons/h. Using the Bond method, estimate
the power necessary per ton of rock in each of the operation.
