<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

X cotx expansion using maclaurins theorem.
Lemur [1.5K]

It is to be noted that it is impossible to find the Maclaurin Expansion for F(x) = cotx.

<h3>What is Maclaurin Expansion?</h3>

The Maclaurin Expansion is a Taylor series that has been expanded around the reference point zero and has the formula f(x)=f(0)+f′. (0) 1! x+f″ (0) 2! x2+⋯+f[n](0)n!

<h3>What is the explanation for the above?</h3>

as indicated above, the Maclaurin infinite series expansion is given as:

F(x)=f(0)+f′. (0) 1! x+f″ (0) 2! x2+⋯+f[n](0)n!

If F(0) = Cot 0

F(0) = ∝ = 1/0

This is not definitive,

Hence, it is impossible to find the Maclaurin infinite series expansion for F(x) = cotx.

Design circuits that demonstrate all of the principles listed below. Set up the circuits and take measurements to show that the
Nata [24]

<u>Explanation</u>:

For series

\Delta V=V_{1}+V_{2}+\ldots+V_{n}=I R_{1}+I R_{2}+\ldots+I R_{n}(\text {voltages add to the batter } y)

\(I=I_{1}=I_{2}=I_{n}\) (current is the same)

V=I R(\text {voltage is directly proportional to } R)

R_{e q}=R_{1}+R_{2}+\ldots+R_{n} \quad \text { (resistance increase) }

For parallel

\Delta V=\Delta V_{1}=\Delta V_{2}=\Delta V_{n} \quad(\text { same voltage })

I=I_{1}+I_{2}+\ldots+I_{n}(\text {current adds})

\(I=\frac{\Delta V}{R_{e q}} \quad(R \text { inversal } y \text { proportional to } I)\)

\frac{1}{R_{e q}}=\frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\ldots+\frac{1}{R_{n}}

Determine the general lighting load for a two-story office building that measures 125 feet by 150 feet.
Irina-Kira [14]

The general lighting load for a two-story office building that measures 125 feet by 150 feet is 112, 500 sq ft.

<h3>What is lighting load?</h3>

Lighting loads are the energy used to power electric lights and they make up nearly a third of US commercial building energy use.

Lighting load = n(LW)

where;

  • L is length of the building
  • W is width of the building
  • n is number of story building

For one story building, = 3

For two story building, n = 6

Lighting load = 6 x 125 x 150 = 112, 500 sq ft.
