Base course aggregate has a target dry density of 119.7 Ib/cu ft in place. It will be laid down and compacted in a rectangular s

treet repair area of 2000 ft by 48 ft by 6 in. The aggregate in the stockpile contains 3.1 percent moisture. If the required compaction is 95% of the target, how many tons of aggregate will be needed?

Answer:

total weight of aggregate =  5627528 lbs = 2814 tons  

Explanation:

we get  here volume of space to be filled with aggregate that is

volume = 2000 × 48 × 0.5

volume = 48000 ft³

now filling space with aggregate of the density that is

density = 0.95 × 119.7

density = 113.72 lb/ft³

and dry weight of this aggregate is

dry weight = 48000 × 113.72

dry weight = 5458320 lbs

we consider here percent moisture is by weigh

so weight of moisture in aggregate will be

weight of moisture = 0.031 × 5458320

weight of moisture = 169208 lbs

so here total weight of aggregate is

total weight of aggregate = 5458320 + 169208

total weight of aggregate =  5627528 lbs = 2814 tons

True or False: Stress can effectively be relieved through physical activity, getting enough rest and sleep, and relaxation techn
Neko [114]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Actually this are some of the nitty gritty answers and ways to control or stip stress, lemme explain them you see stress most of the time may come from deep thoughts that are and are pushing you to the wall, and you in your state you as you react to that which is so demanding as it makes you tense,so if at you will incorporate physical activities like running, jogging or push ups the psychological tension in you is broken as you focus so much on the activities rather than the tension, then getting enough rest cools the mind and all your thoughts settle as in your brain starts to adapt to chilling and relaxation and enough sleep will actually make ones head to be at peace because if you lack enough sleep you might have an excruciating migraine when you are stressed up and finally relaxation techniques makes the body accept the situation and then you manouver out of it as you grow strongly.

Hope this will help!

An example of a transient analysis involving the 1st law of thermodynamics and conservation of mass is the filling of a compress
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

<em>The temperature will be greater than 25°C</em>

Explanation:

In an adiabatic process, heat is not transferred to or from the boundary of the system. The gain or loss of internal heat energy is solely from the work done on the system, or work done by the system. The work done on the system by the environment adds heat to the system, and work done by the system on its environment takes away heat from the system.

mathematically

Change in the internal energy of a system ΔU = ΔQ + ΔW

in an adiabatic process, ΔQ = 0

therefore

ΔU = ΔW

where ΔQ is the change in heat into the system

ΔW is the work done by or done on the system

when work is done on the system, it is conventionally negative, and vice versa.

also W = pΔv

where p is the pressure, and

Δv = change in volume of the system.

In this case,<em> work is done on the gas by compressing it from an initial volume to the new volume of the cylinder. The result is that the temperature of the gas will rise above the initial temperature of 25°C </em>

A heat pump cycle whose coefficient of performance is 2.5 delivers energy by heat transfer to a dwelling at a rate of 20kW.
12345 [234]

Answer:

a) 8kW

b) $128

Explanation:

Given the coefficient of performance of the heat pump cycle to be 2.5

Energy delivered by the heat pump = 20kW

a) net power required to operate the heat pump = Energy delivered / coefficient of performance

Net power required = 20/2.5

= 8kW

b) Given the cost of electricity is $0.08 for 1kWhour

Since net power required to operate heat pump = 8kW

If the heat pump operate for 200hours, total power required for a month = 8kW×200hours = 1600kWhour

since 1kWh of electricity costs $0.08, cost of electricity used in a month when the pump operates for 200hour will be 1600kWh×$0.08 which is equivalent to $128

garri49 [273]

The largest tensile force that can be applied to the cables given a rod with diameter 1.5 is 2013.15lb

<h3>The static equilibrium is given as:</h3>

F = P (Normal force)

Formula for moment at section

M = P(4 + 1.5/2)

= 4.75p

Solve for the cross sectional area

Area = \frac{\pi d^{2} }{4}

d = 1.5

\frac{\pi *1.5^{2} }{4}

= 1.767 inches²

<h3>Solve for inertia</h3>

\frac{\pi *0.75^4}{4}

= 0.2485inches⁴

Solve for the tensile force from here

\frac{F}{A} +\frac{Mc}{I}

30x10³ = \frac{P}{1.767} +\frac{4.75p*0.75}{0.2485} \\\\

30000 = 14.902 p

divide through by 14.902

2013.15 = P

The largest tensile force that can be applied to the cables given a rod with diameter 1.5 is 2013.15lb
