Answer:

308 acre-ft of water

Explanation:

Given:

Area of the watershed = 22 square miles

Depth of Rainfall = 0.75 in =\frac{\textup{0.75}}{\textup{12}}=0.0625 ft

Percentage rainfall falling in reservoir as runoff = 35%

Now,

1 square mile = 640 acre

Thus,

22 square miles = 22 × 640 = 14,080 acres

Thus,

The total volume of rainfall = Area of watershed × Depth of the rainfall

or

The total volume of rainfall = 14,080 acres × 0.0625 ft = 880 acre-ft

also,

only 35% of the total rainfall is contributing as runoff

thus,

Runoff = 0.35 × 880 acre-ft = 308 acre-ft of water

A bridge to be fabricated of steel girders is designed to be 500 m long and 12 m wide at ambient temperature (assumed 20°C). Exp
Volgvan

Answer:

a) 22.5number

b) 22.22 m length

Explanation:

Given data:

Bridge length = 500 m

width of bridge = 12 m

Maximum temperature = 40 degree C

minimum temperature  = - 35 degree C

Maximum expansion can be determined as

\Delta L = L \alpha (T_{max} - T_{min})

where , \alpha is expansion coefficient = 12\times 10^{-6} degree C

SO, \Delta L = 500\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times ( 40 - (-35))

\Delta L = 0.45 m = 450 mm

number of minimum expansion joints is calculated as

n = \frac{450}{20} = 22.5

b) length of each bridge

Length = \frac{500}{22.5} = 22.22 m

The nuclear reactions resulting from thermal neutron absorption in boron and cadmium are 10B5 + 1 n0 ï  7Li3 + 4He2 113Cd48 + 1
kirill115 [55]

Solution :

The nuclear reaction for boron is given as :

$^{10}\textrm{B}_5 + ^{1}\textrm{n}_0 \rightarrow ^{7}\textrm{Li}_3 + ^{4}\textrm{He}_2$

And the reaction for Cadmium is :

$^{113}\textrm{Cd}_48 + ^{1}\textrm{n}_0 \rightarrow ^{114}\textrm{Cd}_48 + \gamma [5 \ \textrm{MeV}]$

We know that it is easier that to shield or stop an alpha particle (i.e. He nucli) as they can be stopped or obstructed by only a few centimetres of the material. However, the gamma rays ( γ ) can penetrate through the material to a greater distance. Therefore, we can choose the first one.
