Answer:

A to C = 6.4 km

Explanation:

A to B = 4 km

B to C = 5 km

A to C = using pythagorean theorem

a² + b² = c²

a = A to B = 4

b = B to C = 5

c = A to C

c² = 4² + 5²

c = 6.4 km (A to C)

. Chemical manufacturers must present which Information on the product's label?

STatiana [176]

Answer: A) Product identifier

Explanation:

A product identifier is a means, name or number used to identify hazardous and dangerous chemicals on a label or in the SDS( safety data sheet). It provides a special means which helps the user to identify the chemical. Any product identifier used should permit a cross-references to be made among the listed hazardous chemicals required in the written hazard communication program, and the label including SDS(safety data sheet).

A 650-kN column load is supported on a 1.5 m square, 0.5 m deep spread footing. The soil below is a well-graded, normally consol

insens350 [35]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Determine the weight of footing

$W_{f}=\gamma(L)(B)(D)$

Where $W_{f}$ is the weight of footing, γ is the unit weight of concrete, L is the length of footing is the width of footing, and D is the depth of footing

Substitute $2 m \text { for } L, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 23.6 kN / m ^{3}$ for γ in the equation

$\begin{aligned}W_{f} &=\left(23.6 kN / m ^{3}\right)(2 m )(1.5 m )(0.5 m ) \\&=35.4 kN\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the weight of the footing is 35.4 kN

Determine the initial vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}=\gamma(D+B)-u$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3} \text { for } \gamma, 1.5 m \text { for } B, 0.5 m \text { for } D \text { and } 0$ for u in the equation

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z p}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(1.5+0.5) m -0 \\&=36 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the initial vertical stress is 36 kPa

Determine the vertical effective stress.

$\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}=\gamma D$

Here, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress at a depth below ground surface γ is the unit weight of soil, D is depth and u is pore water pressure.

Substitute $18 kN / m ^{3}\) for \(\gamma, 0.5 m\) for \(D\) and 0 for \(u$ in the equation.

$\begin{aligned}\sigma_{z b}^{\prime} &=\left(18 kN / m ^{3}\right)(0.5 m )-0 \\&=9 kPa\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the vertical stress at a depth below the ground surface is

9 kPa

Determine the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer,

$I_{e p}=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{q-\sigma_{s 0}^{\prime}}{\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}}}$

Here $I_{e p}$ is the influence factor at the midpoint of soil layer $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is initial vertical stress, $\sigma_{z^{p}}^{\prime}$ is vertical effective stress, and $Q$ is bearing pressure

Substitute $36 kPa for \(\sigma_{z p}^{\prime}, 228.47\) kPa for \(q,\) and 9 kPa for \(\sigma_{z D}^{\prime}\)$ in the equation $\begin{aligned}I_{\epsilon P} &=0.5+0.1 \sqrt{\frac{228.47 kPa -9 kPa }{36 kPa }} \\&=0.75\end{aligned}$

Therefore the influence factor at the midpoint of the soil layer is 0.693
