For a maximum superelevation of 0.08 ft/ft and a degree of curve of 4o, calculate the maximum safe speed for the curve assuming

that the side friction factor is 0.13. Using ADOT tables determine the maximum design speed. Comment on why the two values are different.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Superelation= 0.08ft/ft

Given curve= u•

Curve junction factor= 0.13

DR= 5729.57795

R = 5729.57795/D

R = 5729.57795/4

R = 1432.4ft

c + f = V^2/gG

0.08 + 0.13 = V^2 / (32*1432.4)

V^2 = 9625.728 or V = 98 ft/sec

The designed speed for a project considered is a minimum value which means the highway design elements will meet or exceed the standards for the design speed. The maximum safe speed under normal condition is significantly greater than design speed

1600 AM broadcasts radio waves with wavelengths<br> of about 187.37 m. Convert this to miles.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The wavelength in miles is <u>0.1165 miles</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength of the radio wave is 187.37 m.

Now, the wavelength is given in meters.

We need to convert the wavelength from meters to miles.

In order to convert meters to miles, we have to use their conversion factor.

We know that,

1 meter = \frac{1}{1609}\ miles

Therefore, the conversion factor is given as:

CF=\frac{1}{1609}\ miles\ per\ meter

So, the wavelength in miles is given as:

Wavelength=\textrm{Wavelength in meters}\times CF\\\\Wavelength=187.37\ m\times \frac{\frac{1}{1609}\ miles}{1\ m}\\\\Wavelength=\frac{187.37}{1609}\ miles\\\\Wavelength=0.1165\ miles

Hence, the wavelength in miles is 0.1165 miles.

A sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume. The sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 33
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy per molecule of a ideal gas is given by:

\bar{K}=\frac{3k_{B}T}{2}

Now, we know that \bar{K} = (1/2)m\bar{v}^{2}

Before the absorption we have:

(1/2)m\bar{v_{1}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{1}}{2} (1)

After the absorption,

(1/2)m\bar{v_{2}}^{2}=\frac{3k_{B}T_{2}}{2} (2)

If we want the ratio of v2/v1, let's divide the equation (2) by the equation (1)

\frac{v_{2}^{2}}{v_{1}^{2}}=\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{\frac{1340}{335}}

\frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=\sqrt{4}

Therefore the ratio will be \frac{v_{2}}{v_{1}}=2

I hope it helps you!

A child dangles a 1.50-kilogram stuffed toy 0.500 meters from the ground. What is the potential energy of the toy?
inn [45]
Since we know that
Gravitational potential energy = mass × height ×gravity

then

GPE = 1.5 kg x 0.500 m x 9.8m/s^2

therefore

GPE = 7.35 J

An ideal gas is confined within a closed cylinder at atmospheric pressure (1.013 * 105 Pa) by a piston. The piston moves until t
likoan [24]

Answer:

911700\ \text{Pa}

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1.013\times 10^5\ \text{Pa}

V_1 = Initial volume

V_2= Final volume = \dfrac{V_1}{9}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=9

Temperature is the same in the initial and final state

From the ideal gas law we have

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=P_1\times9\\\Rightarrow P_2=1.013\times 10^5\times 9\\\Rightarrow P_2=911700\ \text{Pa}

The final pressure of the system is 911700\ \text{Pa}.
