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

Determine the pressure difference in N/m2,between two points 800m apart in horizontal pipe-line,150 mm diameter, discharging wat
zlopas [31]

Answer: 10.631\times 10^3\ N/m^2

Explanation:

Given

Discharge is Q=12.5\ L

Diameter of pipe d=150\ mm

Distance between two ends of pipe L=800\ m

friction factor f=0.008

Average velocity is given by

\Rightarrow v_{avg}=\dfrac{12.5\times 10^{-3}}{\frac{\pi }{4}(0.15)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=\dfrac{15.9134\times 10^{-3}}{2.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=7.07\times 10^{-1}\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=0.707\ m/s

Pressure difference is given by

\Rightarrow \Delta P=f\ \dfrac{L}{d}\dfrac{\rho v_{avg}^2}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=0.008\times \dfrac{800}{0.15}\times \dfrac{997\times (0.707)^2}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=10,631.45\ N/m^2\\\Rightarrow  \Delta P=10.631\ kPa

An electrical heater is a form of sensible heating process, and heats 0.1m/s of air from 15°C and 80% RH to 50°C? The barometric
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The heater load =35 KJ/kg

Explanation:

Given that

At initial condition

Temperature= 15°C

RH=80%

At final condition

Temperature= 50°C

We know that in sensible heating process humidity ratio remain constant.

Now from chart

At temperature= 15°C and RH=80%

h_1=38 \frac{KJ}{kg},v=0.8 \frac{m^3}{kg}

At  temperature= 50°C

h_2=73 \frac{KJ}{kg}

So\ the\ heater\ load =h_2-h_1

The heater load = 73 - 38 KJ/kg

The heater load =35 KJ/kg

List two things that technological systems have in common.​
Sphinxa [80]

They all share the way that they are fundamentally designed: if they are quite complex, they will share the same basic logic foundations, like the way that the programming languages work. They also all share the method of construction and common and fundamental electronic components, like resistors, capacitors and transistors. As we humans design them, they make logical sense to at least someone, and probably only discounting the internet, you can probably draw logic diagrams and whatever to represent how they work.

Because they are designed by Humans, in a way they all mimic how our brains and society work. Also, as yet there are no truly intelligent technological systems, and are only able to react to a situation how they have been programmed to do so.
