An aquifer has three different formations. Formation A has a thickness of 8.0 m and hydraulic conductivity of 25.0 m/d. Formatio
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The horizontal conductivity is 41.9 m/d.

The vertical conductivity is 37.2 m/d.

Explanation:

Given that,

Thickness of A = 8.0 m

Conductivity = 25.0 m/d

Thickness of B = 2.0 m

Conductivity = 142 m/d

Thickness of C = 34 m

Conductivity = 40 m/d

We need to calculate the horizontal conductivity

Using formula of horizontal conductivity

K_{H}=\dfrac{H_{A}K_{A}+H_{A}K_{A}+H_{A}K_{A}}{H_{A}+H_{B}+H_{C}}

Put the value into the formula

K_{H}=\dfrac{8.0\times25+2,0\times142+34\times40}{8.0+2.0+34}

K_{H}=41.9\ m/d

We need to calculate the vertical conductivity

Using formula of vertical conductivity

K_{V}=\dfrac{H_{A}+H_{B}+H_{C}}{\dfrac{H_{A}}{K_{A}}+\dfrac{H_{B}}{K_{B}}+\dfrac{H_{C}}{K_{C}}}

Put the value into the formula

K_{V}=\dfrac{8.0+2.0+34}{\dfrac{8.0}{25}+\dfrac{2.0}{142}+\dfrac{34}{40}}

K_{V}=37.2\ m/d

Hence, The horizontal conductivity is 41.9 m/d.

The vertical conductivity is 37.2 m/d.

Base course aggregate has a target density of 121.8 lb/ft3 in place It will be laid down and compacted in a rectangular street r
irakobra [83]

Answer:

total weight of the aggregate = 3594878.28 lbs

Explanation:

given data

density = 121.8 lb/ft³

area =  1000 ft x 60 ft x 6 in = 1000 ft x 60 ft x 0.5 ft

moisture = 3.5 %

compaction = 95%

solution

we get here first volume of the space that is filled with the aggregate that is

volume = 1000 ft x 60 ft x 0.5 ft  = 30,000 cu ft

now we get fill space with aggregate that compact to 95% of dry density.

so we fill space with aggregate of density that is = 95% of 121.8

= 115.71 lb/ cu ft

so now dry weight of aggregate is

dry weight of aggregate = 30,000  × 115.71 = 3471300 lb

when we assume that moisture percentage is by weight

then weight of the moisture in aggregate will be

weight of the moisture in aggregate = 3.56 % of 3471300 lb  

weight of the moisture in aggregate = 123578.28 lbs

and

we get total weight of the aggregate to fill space that is

total weight of the aggregate = 3471300 lb +123578.28 lb

total weight of the aggregate = 3594878.28 lbs

An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kPa and 278C, and 75
Inessa [10]

Answer:

(a). The value of temperature at the end of heat addition process            T_{3} = 2042.56 K

(b). The value of pressure at the end of heat addition process                    P_{3} = 1555.46 k pa

(c). The thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle   E_{otto} = 0.4478

(d). The value of mean effective pressure of the cycle P_{m} = 1506.41 \frac{k pa}{kg}

Explanation:

Compression ratio r_{p} = 8

Initial pressure P_{1} = 95 k pa

Initial temperature T_{1} = 278 °c = 551 K

Final pressure P_{2} = 8 × P_{1} = 8 × 95 = 760 k pa

Final temperature T_{2} = T_{1} × r_{p} ^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma} }

Final temperature T_{2} = 551 × 8 ^{\frac{1.4 - 1}{1.4} }

Final temperature T_{2} = 998 K

Heat transferred at constant volume Q = 750 \frac{KJ}{kg}

(a). We know that Heat transferred at constant volume Q_{S} = m C_{v} ( T_{3} - T_{2}  )

⇒ 1 × 0.718 × ( T_{3} - 998 ) = 750

⇒ T_{3} = 2042.56 K

This is the value of temperature at the end of heat addition process.

Since heat addition is constant volume process. so for that process pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.

⇒ P ∝ T

⇒ \frac{P_{3} }{P_{2} } = \frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} }

⇒ P_{3} = \frac{2042.56}{998} × 760

⇒ P_{3} = 1555.46 k pa

This is the value of pressure at the end of heat addition process.

(b). Heat rejected from the cycle Q_{R} = m C_{v} ( T_{4} - T_{1}  )

For the compression and expansion process,

⇒ \frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} } = \frac{T_{4} }{T_{1} }

⇒ \frac{2042.56}{998} = \frac{T_{4} }{551}

⇒ T_{4} = 1127.7 K

Heat rejected Q_{R} = 1 × 0.718 × ( 1127.7 - 551)

⇒ Q_{R} = 414.07 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Net heat interaction from the cycle Q_{net} = Q_{S} - Q_{R}

Put the values of Q_{S} & Q_{R}  we get,

⇒ Q_{net} = 750 - 414.07

⇒ Q_{net} = 335.93 \frac{KJ}{kg}

We know that for a cyclic process net heat interaction is equal to net work transfer.

⇒ Q_{net} = W_{net}

⇒ W_{net} = 335.93 \frac{KJ}{kg}

This is the net work output from the cycle.

(c). Thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle is given by

E_{otto} = 1- \frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }

Put the values of T_{1} & T_{2} in the above formula we get,

E_{otto} = 1- \frac{551 }{998 }

⇒ E_{otto} = 0.4478

This is the thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle.

(d). Mean effective pressure P_{m} :-

We know that mean effective pressure of  the Otto cycle is  given by

P_{m} = \frac{W_{net} }{V_{s} } ---------- (1)

where V_{s} is the swept volume.

V_{s} = V_{1}  - V_{2} ---------- ( 2 )

From ideal gas equation P_{1} V_{1} = m × R × T_{1}

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 95 × V_{1} = 1 × 0.287 × 551

⇒ V_{1} = 0.6 m^{3}

From the same ideal gas equation

P_{2} V_{2} = m × R × T_{2}

⇒ 760 × V_{2} = 1 × 0.287 × 998

⇒ V_{2} = 0.377 m^{3}

Thus swept volume V_{s} = 0.6 - 0.377

⇒ V_{s} = 0.223 m^{3}

Thus from equation 1 the mean effective pressure

⇒ P_{m} = \frac{335.93}{0.223}

⇒ P_{m} = 1506.41 \frac{k pa}{kg}

This is the value of mean effective pressure of the cycle.

Why some types of aggregate are susceptible to damage from repeated freezing and thawing? Explain.
koban [17]

Answer:

Some types of aggregate are susceptible to damage from repeated freezing and thawing due to their porosity. An aggregate being porous allows water molecules to enter in between the rocks.

When freezing occurs, water is known to expand. The expansion of this in the rocks creates a type of pressure which results in the fracture of the rocks. Subsequent freezing and thawing will allow for more fracture between the rock particles which will lead to its disintegration.
