Answer:

The correct option is 'e': f = 0.05.

Explanation:

The head loss as given by Darcy Weisbach Equation is as

h_{l}=\frac{flv^{2}}{2gD}

where

h_{l} is head loss in the pipe

'f' is the friction factor

'l' is the length of pile

'v' is the velocity of flow in pipe

'D' is diameter of pipe

From equation of contuinity we have v=\frac{Q}{A}

Thus using this in darcy's equation we get

h_{l}=\frac{flQ^{2}}{2gDA}

where

'Q' is discharge in the pipe

'A' is area of the pipe A=\frac{\piD^2}{4}

Applying the given values we get

h_{l}=\frac{8flQ^{2}}{\pi ^{2}gD^{5}}

Solving for 'f' we get

f=\frac{0.53\times \pi ^{2}\times 9.81\times 0.6^{5}}{1000\times 0.1^{2}\times 8}\\\\f=0.05

A standard penetration test has been conducted on a coarse sand at a depth of 16 ft below the ground surface. The blow counts ob
scoray [572]

Solution :

Given :

The number of blows is given as :

0 - 6 inch = 4 blows

6 - 12 inch = 6 blows

12 - 18 inch = 6 blows

The vertical effective stress $=1500 \ lb/ft^2$

                                              $= 71.82 \ kN/m^2$

                                             $ \sim 72 \ kN/m^2 $

Now,

$N_1=N_0 \left(\frac{350}{\bar{\sigma}+70} \right)$

$N_1 = $ corrected N - value of overburden

$\bar{\sigma}=$ effective stress at level of test

0 - 6 inch, $N_1=4 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

                      = 9.86

6 - 12 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right) $

                        = 14.8

12 - 18 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right) $

                         = 14.8

$N_{avg}=\frac{9.86+14.8+14.8}{3}$

       = 13.14

       = 13

A road has a crest curve, where the PVI station is a 71 35. The road transitions from a 2.1% grade to a -3.4% grade. The highest
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Stat PVC = Stat(82+98.5)

Stat PVT = Stat(59+71.5)

Explanation

PVI = 71 + 35

Let G1 = Grade 1; G2 = Grade 2

G1 = +2.1% ; G2 = -3.4%

Highest point of curve at station = 74 + 10

General equation of a curve:

y = ax^{2} +bx+c\\dy/dx=2ax+b\\

At highest point of the curve dy/dx=o

2ax+b=0\\x=-b/2a\\x=G1L/(G2-G1)\\x=L/2 +(stat 74+10)-(stat 71+35)\\x=L/2 + 275

-G1L/(G2-G1) = (L/2 + 275)/100\\L = -2327 ft\\Station PVC = Stat(71+35)+(-2327/2)\\\\Stat PVC = 7135-1163.5\\Stat PVC = Stat(82+98.5)\\

Station PVT

Station PVT = Stat PVI + (L/2)\\Station PVT = Stat(71+35)+(-2327/2)\\Station PVT = 7135-1163.5\\Stat PVT = Stat(59+71.5)

k0ka [10]

Answer:

A.) 0.3088

B.) 0.0017

C.) part A

Explanation:

A.)

z1= \frac{\left(150-137\right)}{27.7}=0.4693

z2=\frac{\left(201-137\right)}{27.7}=2.3105

P(0.4693

B.)

z1=\frac{150-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}} =2.9309\\z2=\frac{201-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}}=14.4289

\\P(2.9309

C.) Since the seat performance for an individual pilot is more important than 39 different pilots.
