A 2m high sandy fill material was placed loosely at a relative density of 47%. Laboratory studies indicated that the maximum and

minimum void ratios of the fill material are 0.92 and 0.53, respectively. Construction specifications required that the fill be compacted to a relative density of 80%.
If Gs = 2.65 determine:

a) the dry unit weight of the fill before and after compaction
b) the final height of the fill after compaction

Answer:

2

Explanation:To find the solution we must first make the transformations to international units,

In this way:

Inches of length (L) to feet =

So we can identify the area by hour:

Once the area is identified, we now identify the number of passes required,

Passes required = Area x number of passes

We transform speed to international units

So we can identify the covered area

where

m = drum widht

p = efficiency

In this way we obtain the number of rollers given by:

No. of Rollers = Passes required / covered area

No of rollers = 48136/40269

No of rollers = 1.19, that is, 2

Describe with an example how corroded structures can lead to environment pollution?

raketka [301]

According to EonCoat, corrosion is the process of decay on a material caused by a chemical reaction with its environment. Corrosion of metal occurs when an exposed surface comes in contact with a gas or liquid, and the process is accelerated by exposure to warm temperature, acids, and salts.” (1)
Although the word ‘corrosion’ is used to describe the decay of metals, all natural and man-made materials are subject to decay, and the level of pollutants in the air can speed up this process.

A MOSFET differs from a JFET mainly because

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The answer is option

C . the JFET has a PN junction

Explanation:

Not only is option C in the question a dissimilarity between the MOSFET and the JFET we can go on with some more dissimilarities.

1.MOSFET stands for Metal Oxide Silicon Field Effect Transistor or Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor.

(JFET) stands for junction gate field-effect transistor (JFET)

2. JFET is a three-terminal semiconductor device, whereas MOFET a four-terminal semiconductor device.

3. In terms of areas of application of JFETs are used in low noise applications while MOSFETs, are used for high noise applications

What is the activation energy (Q) for a vacancy formation if 10 moles of a metal have 2.3 X 10^13 vacancies at 425°C?

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

$Activation\ Energy=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Explanation:

Using the expression shown below as:

$N_v=N\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{k\times T}$

Where,

$N_v$ is the number of vacancies

N is the number of defective sites

k is Boltzmann's constant = $1.38\times 10^{-23}\ J/K$

${Q_v}$ is the activation energy

T is the temperature

Given that:

$N_v=2.3\times 10^{13}$

N = 10 moles

1 mole = $6.023\times 10^{23}$

So,

N = $10\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=6.023\times 10^{24}$

Temperature = 425°C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (425 + 273.15) K = 698.15 K

T = 698.15 K

Applying the values as:

$2.3\times 10^{13}=6.023\times 10^{24}\times e^{-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$ln[\frac {2.3}{6.023}\times 10^{-11}]=-\frac {Q_v}{1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 698.15}$

$Q_v=2.5\times 10^{-19}\ J$
