<u>Explanation:</u>

% Gravel = 100 - 72% = 28%

% Sand = 100 - 28 - 15 = 57%

% Fires = 100 - 0 - 28 - 57 = 15%

$\begin{aligned}&D_{n} \cdot 0.03 \quad ; \quad D_{x}=1.1 \quad ; \quad D_{0}=3.3\\&C_{u}=\frac{D_{60}}{D_{10}}=\frac{3.3}{0.03}=110\\&C_{c}=\frac{D_{30}^{2}}{D_{0} \cdot D_{0}}=\frac{1.1^{2}}{3.3 \times 0.03}=12.22\end{aligned}$

The soil is poorly graded soil.

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!

If gain of the critically damped system is increased, the system will behave as a) Under damped b) Over damped c) Critically dam

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

a) Under damped

Explanation:

Given that system is critically damped .And we have to find out the condition when gain is increased.

As we know that damping ratio given as follows

$\zeta =\dfrac{C}{C_c}$

Where C is the damping coefficient and Cc is the critical damping coefficient.

$C_c=2\sqrt{mK}$

So from above we can say that

$\zeta =\dfrac{C}{2\sqrt{mK}}$

$\zeta \alpha \dfrac{1}{\sqrt K}$

From above relationship we can say when gain (K) is increases then system will become under damped system.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tanlc The fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differentialhe

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

(a) 11.437 psia

(b) 13.963 psia

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a fluid can be estimated by multiplying the density of the fluid, acceleration due to gravity and the depth of the fluid. To determine the fluid density, we have:

fluid density = specific gravity * density of water = 1.25 * 62.4 lbm/ft^3 = 78 lbm/ft^3

height = 28 in * (1 ft/12 in) = 2.33 ft

acceleration due to gravity = 32.174 ft/s^2

The change in pressure = fluid density*acceleration due to gravity*height = 78*32.174*(28/12) = 5855.668 lbm*ft/(s^2 * ft^2) = 5855.668 lbf/ft^2

The we convert from lbf/ft^2 to psi:

(5855.668/32.174)*0.00694 psi = 1.263 psi

(a) pressure = atmospheric pressure - change in pressure = 12.7 - 1.263 = 11.437 psia

(b) pressure = atmospheric pressure + change in pressure = 12.7 + 1.263 = 13.963 psia
