A city engineer knows that she will need $25 million in 3 years to replace toll booths on a toll road in the city. Traffic on th

e road is estimated to be 20 million vehicles per year. How much per vehicle should the toll be to cover the cost of the toll booth replacement project? Interest is 10%.

Answer:

$1.38

Explanation:

She will spend $25 million in 3 years at 10% interest is a case of Future Value of Annuity.

Therefore,

FV = A*((1+r)^n-1)/r

Where A = 25,000,000

r=10%=0.1

n=3

FV= 25000000*((1+0.1)^3-1)/0.1

FV=25000000*(1.331-1)/0.1

FV=25000000*(0.331/0.1)

FV=25000000*3.31

FV=$82,750,000

So it is estimated that 20million cars passes through the toll per year

Therefore,

Toll per vehicle per year = 82750000/2000000

=$4.14

Toll for the duration of the project

=4.14/3 =$1.38

Products that are in the process of being manufactured but are not yet complete are called:
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Those products are generally called Work in Process WIP

Explanation:

Work in process (WIP), or work in progress (WIP), goods in process, or in-process inventory in a manufacturing industry/company refer to the company's partially finished goods waiting for completion and eventual sale or the value of these items.

These items are either just being produced or require further processing (like purification, separation, packaging or handling) in a queue or a buffer storage.

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following
torisob [31]

Given:

Assuming the transition to turbulence for flow over a flat plate happens at a Reynolds number of 5x105, determine the following for air at 300 K and engine oil at 380 K. Assume the free stream velocity is 3 m/s.

To Find:

a. The distance from the leading edge at which the transition will occur.

b. Expressions for the momentum and thermal boundary layer thicknesses as a function of x for a laminar boundary layer

c. Which fluid has a higher heat transfer

Calculation:

The transition from the lamina to turbulent begins when the critical Reynolds

number reaches 5\times 10^5

(a).  \;\text{Rex}_{cr}=5 \times 10^5\\\\\frac{\rho\;vx}{\mu}=5 \times 10^5\\\text{density of of air at}\;300K=1.16  \frac{kg}{m\cdot s}\\\text{viscosity of of air at}\;300K=1.846 \times 10^{-5} \frac{kg}{m\cdot s} \\v=3m/s\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{5\times 10^5 \times 1.846 \times 10^{-5} }{1.16 \times 3} =2.652 \;m \;\text{for air}\\(\text{similarly for engine oil at 380 K for given}\; \rho \;\text{and} \;\mu)\\

(b).\; \text{For the lamina boundary layer momentum boundary layer thickness is given by}:\\\frac{\delta}{x} =\frac{5}{\sqrt{R_e}}\;\;\;\;\quad\text{for}\; R_e(c). \frac{\delta}{\delta_t}={P_r}^{\frac{r}{3}}\\\text{For air} \;P_r \;\text{equivalent 1 hence both momentum and heat dissipate with the same rate for oil}\; \\P_r >>1 \text{heat diffuse very slowly}\\\text{So heat transfer rate will be high for air.}\\\text{Convective heat transfer coefficient will be high for engine oil.}
