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

What is the power of a parallel circuit with a resistance of 1,000 omh and current of 0.03a
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: P = I2R = 0.032 x 1000 =0.9 W

Explanation: The power will be the product of the square of the current and

the resistance of the load. The fact that the circuit is a parallel  circuit is irrelevant to this question.
