The soil borrow material to be used to construct a highway embankment has a mass unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf and a water content

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Given information

Bulk unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf

Water content of 7.3%,=0.073

Specific gravity of the soil solids is 2.62

Specifications

Dry unit weight is 113 lb/cf

Water content is 6%.

Volume of embankment is 440,000-cy

Borrow material

$Dry_{unit,weight}=\frac {bulk_{unit,weight}}{1+water_{content}}=\frac {107}{1+0.073}= 99.72041 lb/cf$

Embankment

Considering that the volume of embankment is inversely proportional to the dry unit weight

$\frac {V_{embankment}}{V_{borrow}}=\frac {Dry_{borrow}}{Dry_{embankment}}$

Therefore, $V_{borrow}=V_{embankment} *\frac {Dry_{embarkement}}{Dry_{borrow}}$

$V_{borrow}=440,000-cy*\frac {113 lb/cf }{99.72041 lb/cf }= 498594-cy$

Therefore, volume of borrow material is 498594-cy

(b)

The weight of water in embankment is found by multiplying the moisture content and dry unit weight.

Assuming that all the specifications are achieved, weight of water in embankment=0.06*113=6.78 lb/cf

Since $1 yd^{3}= 27 ft^{3}$

The embankment requires water of 6.78*27*440000= 80546400 lb

Borrow materials’ water will also be 0.073*99.72041=7.27959 lb/cf

Borrow material requires water of 7.27959*27*498594=97998120 lb

Extra water between borrow material and embankment=97998120 lb-80546400 lb=17451720 lb

$Unit_{weight}=\frac {17451720}{498594}=35.00186 lb$

1 gallon is approximately $8.35 yd^{3}$ hence

$\frac {35.00186 lb/yd^{3}}{8.35}=4.19184 gallons/yd^{3}$

That's approximately 4.2 gallons

The water of a 14’ × 48’ metal frame pool can drain from the pool through an opening at the side of the pool. The opening is abo

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Height h = 1.03m

Volume v = 3780 gallons = 3780 * 0.0037851m^3 = 14.3073m^3

Time t = 13.5 mins = 13.5 * 60 = 810 seconds

Length of pool L = 14 inch = 14 * 2.54 = 35.56cm

width of pool b = 48 inch = 48 * 2.54 = 121.92 cm

a.) Consider the bernoulli's equation is given as:

$P_1+\rho gh_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 ...(1)$

consider the equation of bernoulli at the top of the pool

$P_0+\rho gh_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 =constant ...(2)$

where $P_1=P_0$ atm pressure

At the top of the pool $v_1=0m/s$ , substitute in V_1 in equation (2)

$P_0+\rho gh_1 =constant ...(3)$

Hence equation (3) serves as the bernoullis equation at the top.

b.) Consider the equation of bernoulli's at the opening of the pool

$P_2+\rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 =constant ...(4)\\P_0+\rho gh_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 =constant ...(5)$

where $P_2=P_0$ atm pressure and $h_2=0m$

$P_0+\rho v_1^2 =constant ...(6)$

Hence equation (6) serves as the bernoullis equation of water at the opening of the pool.

c.) Consider the equation (3) and (4)

$P_0+\rho gh_1 =P_0+\rho v_1^2\\\\\frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2=\rho gh_1\\v_2^2=2gh_1\\v_2=(\sqrt{2gh_1})m/s...(7)$

Hence velocity is $v_2=(\sqrt{2gh_1})m/s$

d.) consider (7)

$v_2=(\sqrt{2(9.81)(1.03)})=4.4954m/s(approx)$

This is the norminal value of velocity

e.) consider the equation of flow rate interval of v and t

flow(t)= $\frac{dv}{dt}(m^3/s)$ hence this is the flow rate

f.) Consider the equation cross sectional area in terms of V,v2 and t

$AV_2=\frac{v}{t}\\\\A=\frac{v}{v_2t}(m^2)...8$

hence this serves as the cross sectional area.

g.) Consider the equation of area from equation (8)

$A=\frac{v}{v_2t}\\=\frac{14.3073}{4.4954\times 810}=0.003929=0.00393m^2=39.3cm^2$

A sample of wastewater is diluted 10 times. The diluted solution has an ultimate biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), Lo, of 30 mg/L

zzz [600]

Answer:

474.59 mg/L

Explanation:

Given that

BOD = 30 mg/L

Original BOD = 30 mg/L × dilution factor

Original BOD = 30 mg/L × 10 = 300 mg/L

$L_o = \frac{BOD}{1-e^{-5t}}$

here $L_o$ is the ultimate BOD ; BOD is the biochemical oxygen demand ; t = 0.20 /day

$L_o = \frac{300}{1-e^{-5(0.20)}}$

$L_o = 474.59 \ mg/L$
