, c)
Explanation:
a) The deceleration experimented by the commuter train in the first 2.5 miles is:
The time required to travel is:
b) The commuter train must stop when it reaches the station to receive passengers. Hence, speed of train must be .
c) The final constant deceleration is:
Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
2. 0-1 km shear value: taking winds at 1000mb and 850 mb
15 kts south easterly and 50 kts southerly
Vector difference 135/15 and 180/50 will be 170/61 or southerly 61 kts
3. 0-6 km shear value: taking winds at 1000 mb and 500 mb
15 kts south easterly and 40 kts westerly
Vector difference 135/15 and 270/40 will be 281/51 kts

Answer:
P = 4.745 kips
Explanation:
Given
ΔL = 0.01 in
E = 29000 KSI
D = 1/2 in
LAB = LAC = L = 12 in
We get the area as follows
A = π*D²/4 = π*(1/2 in)²/4 = (π/16) in²
Then we use the formula
ΔL = P*L/(A*E)
For AB:
ΔL(AB) = PAB*L/(A*E) = PAB*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)
⇒ ΔL(AB) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB
For AC:
ΔL(AC) = PAC*L/(A*E) = PAC*12 in/((π/16) in²*29*10⁶ PSI)
⇒ ΔL(AC) = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC
Now, we use the condition
ΔL = ΔL(AB)ₓ + ΔL(AC)ₓ = ΔL(AB)*Cos 30° + ΔL(AC)*Cos 30° = 0.01 in
⇒ ΔL = (2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAB*Cos 30°+(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*PAC*Cos 30°= 0.01 in
Knowing that PAB*Cos 30°+PAC*Cos 30° = P
we have
(2.107*10⁻⁶ in/lbf)*P = 0.01 in
⇒ P = 4745.11 lb = 4.745 kips
