At a lake location, the soil surface is 6 m under the water surface. Samples from the soil deposit underlying the lake indicate

a wet unit weight of 18.8 kN/m3. Determine the effective and total vertical stresses in the deposit at a depth of 12 m below the soil surface.

Answer:

The effective stress is 225.6 kN/m²

The total vertical stress is 338.4 kN/m²

Explanation:

Given;

depth of soil surface = 6m

weight unit of the soil samples = 18.8 kN/m³

Stress = force/area

Stress = unit weight x depth

Effective stress at a depth of 12 m below the soil surface:

= (18.8 kN/m³) x (12 m)

= 225.6 kN/m²

Effective stress = 225.6 kN/m²

Total vertical stress at a depth of 12 m below the soil surface:

= (18.8 kN/m³) x (6 m) + (18.8 kN/m³) x (12 m)

= 112.8 kN/m² + 225.6 kN/m²

= 338.4 kN/m²

Total vertical stress = 338.4 kN/m²

What is the difference between a discrete and continuous system?
Serjik [45]

Answer:Discrete system are those system which change the state at the discrete point of time and continuous system are those which have state change at continuous period of time.

Explanation:

  • The major difference between discrete and continuous system is that, discrete system has state change over a discontinuous time period whereas the change of state in continuous system is over a continuous time period .
  • Variations can be found in the discrete system signal but  in continuous system variation cannot be found input and output signal.
  • Example:-

       Discrete system:-employees reporting at office at different time like

       9:10am, 9:15am etc              

       <u> Continuous system</u>:-the water flow over a dam in particular quantity

Sidana [21]

Neither of the technicians are correct.

<h3>Who is a technician?</h3>

A technician simply means an individual who looks after the technical equipments in a company.

In this case, the teeth of the synchronizer are not rounded, the synchronizer can be reused. This shows that he is incorrect likewise technician B.

Create a program, using at least one For Loop, that displays the Sales Amounts in each of 4 regions during a period of three mon
kari74 [83]

Answer:

C++ code explained below

Explanation:

/*C++ program that prompts sales for four regions of three sales and prints

the sales values to console */

#include<iostream>

#include<iomanip>

#include<cstring>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

  //set constant values

  const int SALES=3;

  const int REGIONS=4;

  //create an array of four regions

  string regionNames[]={"Region 1","Region 2","Region 3","Region 4"};

  //create a 2D array to read sales

  int sales[REGIONS][SALES];

  //read sales for four regions

  for(int region=0;region<REGIONS;region++)

  {

      cout<<regionNames[region]<<endl;

      for(int sale=0;sale<SALES;sale++)

      {

          cout<<"Enter sales ";

          cin>>sales[region][sale];

      }

  }

  //print sales

  for(int region=0;region<REGIONS;region++)

  {

      cout<<regionNames[region]<<"-";

      for(int sale=0;sale<SALES;sale++)

      {

          cout<<setw(5)<<sales[region][sale];

      }

      cout<<endl;

  }

  //pause program output on console

In order to produce a certain semiconductor, a process called doping is performed in which phosphorus is diffused into germanium
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The diffusivity is given as 8.064\times 10^{-16} m^2/s

Explanation:

From the given data as in the attached question found via the search (because the values were not clear in this one)

D_o=2.0\times10^{-4}m^2/s\\Q_d=240.6 kJ/mol=2.406 \times 10^5 J/mol\\Gas Constant=R=8.314 J/mol K\\Temperature =830 C =830+273 =1103 K

So  the Diffusion coefficient is given as

D=D_oe^{\frac{-Q_d}{RT}}\\D=(2.0\times 10^{-4})e^{\frac{-2.406\times 10^5}{8.314\times 1103}}\\D=8.0640\times 10^{-16} m^2/s

So the diffusivity is given as 8.064\times 10^{-16} m^2/s

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

  1. Scenario
  2. Use case
  3. Scenarios
  4. Scenarios
  5. Use case

Explanation:

A <u>scenario</u> is an actual sequence of interactions (i.e., an instance) describing one specific situation; a <u>use case</u> is a general sequence of interactions (i.e., a class) describing all possible <u>scenarios</u> associated with a situation. <u>Scenarios</u> are used as examples and for clarifying details with the client. <u>Use cases</u> are used as complete descriptions to specify a user task or a set of related system features.
