An equal-tangent vertical curve is to be constructed between grades of -2% (initial) and 1% (final). The PVI is at station 110 0

0 and at elevation 420 ft. Due to a street crossing the roadway, the elevation of the roadway at station 112 00 must be at 424.5 ft. Design the curve, and determine the elevations and stations for PVC and PVI.

Answer:

The curve length (<em>L</em>) will be = 1218 ft

The elevations and stations for PVC and PVI

a. station of PVC = 103 + 91.00

b. station of PVI = 116 + 09.00

c. elevation of PVC = 432.18ft

d. elevation of PVI = 426.09ft

Explanation:

First calculate for the length (<em>L</em>)

To calculate the length, use the formula of "elevation at any point".

where, elevation at any point = 424.5.

and ∴ PVC Elevation = (420 + 0.01L)

Then, calculate for Station of PVC and PVI and elevation of PVC and PVI

A CL soil is being used for compacted fill on a project. A sample of the compacted soil with a total volume of 1/30 ft3 weighs 4
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

A. 0.4

B. 1.003

C. 0.83

Explanation:

The void ratio of a mixture is defined as the ratio of the volume of voids to volume of solids.

Total volume of soil = 1/30 ft3

= 1 ft3/30 * 0.0283 m3/1 ft3

= 9.43 x 10^-4 m3

Mass of water is in the soil = 20% * 4.8

= 0.96 pounds of water

= 0.96 * 0.454

= 0.44 kg

SG = density of substance/density of water

= 2.66 * 1 kg/l

Density of the soil = 2.660 kg/l

Mass of solid = 80 %

= 80% * 4.8 * 0.454

= 1.74 kg

Volume of solids = mass/density

= 1.74/2.66

= 6.63 l

= 6.63 x 10^-4 m3.

The volume of voids is found by adding the volume of water and the volume of air.

Total volume of soil = volume of (solids + voids)

9.43 x 10^-4 = 6.63 x 10^-4 + voids

Volume of voids = 2.8 x 10^-4 m3

A.

Void ratio = volume of void : volume of solids

= 2.8 : 6.63

= 0.4

B.

Y = (1 + w) * Gs * Yw * (1 + e)

Y = moist unit weight

Yw = unit weight of water

w = moisture content of the material

Gs = pecific gravity of the solid

e = void ratio

= (1 + 0.2) * 2.66 * 0.44 * (1 + 0.4)

= 1.003.

C.

gd = Y/(1 + w)

Or

= Gs * Yw * 1/(1 + e)

= 0.83.

A cylindrical buoy is 2m in diameter and 2.5m long and weight 22kN . The specific weight of sea water is 10.25kN/m^3 . (I) Show
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

GM

So the bouy does not float with its axis vertical

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Diameter d=2m

Length l=2.5m

Weight W=22kN

Specific weight of sea water \mu= 10.25kN/m^3

Generally the equation for weight of cylinder is mathematically given by

Weight of cylinder = buoyancy Force

W=(pwg)Vd

Where

V_d=\pi/4(d)^2y

Therefore

22*10^3=10.25*10^3 *\pi/4(2)^2y\\\\\22*10^3=32201.3247y\\\\\y=1.5m

Therefore

Center of Bouyance B

B=\frac{y}{2}=0.26m\\\\B=0.75

Center of Gravity

G=\frac{I.B}{2}=2.6m

Generally the equation for\BM is mathematically given by

BM=\frac{I}{vd}\\\\BM=\frac{3.142/64*2^4}{3.142/4*2^2*0.5215}\\\\BM=0.479m\\\\

Therefore

BG=2.6-0.476\\\\BG=0.64m

Therefore

GM=BM-BG\\\\GM=0.479m-0.64m\\\\GM=-0.161m\\\\

Therefore

GM

So the bouy does not float with its axis vertical

A Sampling of 409 motor Shafts from a very large production Batch shows a sample standard deviation in Diameter of 0.021 mm with
andrezito [222]

Answer:

9.248 < \mu < 9.253 mm

Explanation:

Given data:

standard deviation  = 0.021 mm

sample mean = 9.251 mm

total sample = 409 m

confidence interval level = 95%

mean diameter of entire batch  \mu  = \bar X \pm z \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

where

\bar X - sample mean = 9.251 mm

z = critical value

plugginf all value in the above relation to get the mean diameter

\mu = 9.251 \pm 1.96 \times \frac{0.021}{\sqrt{409}}

9.248 < \mu < 9.253 mm
