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

The phrase "positive to positive, negative to ground" is correct when jump starting a car.
Artist 52 [7]

The correct answer is A; True.

Further Explanation:

This is a correct phrase that is important to learn when owning any type of vehicle. When a car battery is dead, it can usually be jump started by using another cars battery or a portable battery charger. It is extremely important to put the positive battery cable on the positive battery post. Then the negative cable will be placed on the negative car battery post and the negative ground wire can be anywhere on the car except on the battery.

The car needs to be connected properly for a few minutes before trying to start the car. This helps the car battery to get enough "juice" to start. If the battery cables are placed wrong this can cause sparks to come out of the cables/battery and cause bodily harm.
