The design speed was used for the freeway exit ramp is 11 mph.

<h3>Design speed used in the exit ramp</h3>

The design speed used in the exit ramp is calculated as follows;

f = v²/15R - 0.01e

where;

  • v is designated speed

v = ωr

v = (θ/t) r

θ = 90⁰ = 1.57 rad

v = (1.57 x 19.4)/2.5 s

v = 12.18 ft/s = 8.3 mph

<h3>Design speed</h3>

f = v²/15R - 0.01e

let the maximum superelevation, e = 1%

f = (8.3)²/(15 x 19.4) - 0.01

f = 0.22

0.22 is less than value of f which is 0.4

<h3>next iteration, try 10 mph</h3>

f = (10)²/(15 x 19.4) - 0.01

f = 0.33

0.33 is less than 0.4

<h3>next iteration, try 11 mph</h3>

f = (11)²/(15 x 19.4) - 0.01

f = 0.4

Thus, the design speed was used for the freeway exit ramp is 11 mph.

An iron-carbon alloy initially containing 0.286 wt% C is exposed to an oxygen-rich and virtually carbon-free atmosphere at 1200°
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given data:

initial construction co = 0.286 wt %

concentration at surface position cs = 0 wt %

carbon concentration cx = 0.215 wt%

time = 7 hr

D =  7.5 \times 10^{-11} m^2/s

for 0.225% carbon concentration following formula is used

\frac{cx -co}{cs -co} = 1 - erf(\frac{x}{2\sqrt{DT}})

where, erf stand for error function

\frac{cx -co}{cs -co} = \frac{0.215 -0.286}{0 -0.286} =0.248

0.248 = 1 - erf(\frac{x}{2\sqrt{DT}})

erf(\frac{x}{2\sqrt{DT}}) = 1 - 0.248

erf(\frac{x}{2\sqrt{DT}}) = 0.751

from the table erf(Z) value = 0.751 lie between (z) = 0.80 and z = 0.85 so by inteerpolation we have z = 0.815

from given table

\frac{x}{2\sqrt{DT}} = 0.815

x = 2\times 0.815 \times \sqrt{7.5 \times 10^{-11}\times (7\times 3600)

x = 2.39\times 10^{-3} m

x = 0.002395 mm

Let S = { p q |p, q are prime numbers greater than 0} and E = {0, −2, 2, −4, 4, −6, 6, · · · } be the set of even integers. . Pr
Finger [1]

Answer:

prove that | S | = | E | ; every element of S there is an Image on E , while not every element on E has an image on S

Explanation:

Given that S = { p q |p, q are prime numbers greater than 0}

                    E = {0, −2, 2, −4, 4, −6, 6, · · · }

To prove  by constructing a bijection from S to E

detailed  solution attached below

After the bijection :

<em>prove that | S | = | E |</em> :  every element of S there is an Image on E , while not every element on E has an image on S

∴ we can say sets E and S are infinite sets
