A four-lane freeway (two lanes in each direction) is located on rolling terrain and has 12-ft lanes, no lateral obstructions wit

hin 6 ft of the pavement edges, and there are 2 ramps within 3 miles upstream of the segment midpoint and 3 ramps within 3 miles downstream of the segment midpoint. A weekday directional peak-hour volume of 1800 vehicles (familiar users) is observed, with 700 arriving in the most congested 15-min period. If a level of service no worse than C is desired, determine the maximum number of heavy vehicles that can be present in the peak-hour traffic stream.
Consider the freeway and traffic conditions described in Problem 6.3. If 180 of the 1800 vehicles observed in the peak hour were heavy vehicles (assume a 70%/30% SUT/TT split), what would the level of service of this freeway be on a 5-mi, 6% downgrade?

A battery is an electromechanical device. a)- True b)- False
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

b)False

Explanation:

A battery is a device which store the energy in the form of chemical energy.And this stored energy is used according to the requirement.So battery is not a electromechanical device.Because it does have any mechanical component like gear ,shaft flywheel etc.

A flywheel is known as mechanical battery because it stored mechanical energy and supply that energy when more energy is required.Generally fly wheel is used during punching operation.

What type of car engine is best for cold weather.
Komok [63]

Answer:Antifreeze/coolant

Explanation: keeps your engine cool in warm weather and keeps it from freezing up in the winter. A 50-50 mix of full strength coolant and water generally protects to around -30 degrees Fahrenheit. Make sure you check with the supplier or your owner's manual for the correct formulation

Define an ADT for a two-dimensional array of integers. Specify precisely the basic operations that can be performed on such arra
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Explanation:

ADT for an 2-D array:

struct array{

int arr[10];

}arrmain[10];

An application that stores an array with 1000 rows and 1000 columns, where less than 10,000 of the array values are non-zero. The two different implementations for such arrays that would be more space efficient than a standard two-dimensional array implementation requiring one million positions are :

1) struct array{

int *p;

}arr[1000];

2) struct array{

int *p;

}arr[1000];

How high a building could fire hoses effectively spray from the ground? Fire hose pressures are around 1 MPa. (It is also said t
Mrac [35]

Answer:

z_{2} = 91.640\,m

Explanation:

The phenomenon can be modelled after the Bernoulli's Principle, in which the sum of heads related to pressure and kinetic energy on ground level is equal to the head related to gravity.

\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}= z_{2}+\frac{P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g}

The velocity of water delivered by the fire hose is:

v_{1} = \frac{(300\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot(\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.3\,m)^{2}}

v_{1} = 0.267\,\frac{m}{s}

The maximum height is cleared in the Bernoulli's equation:

z_{2}= \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{\rho\cdot g} + \frac{v_{1}^{2}}{2\cdot g}

z_{2}= \frac{1\times 10^{6}\,Pa-101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa}{(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )} + \frac{(0.267\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}

z_{2} = 91.640\,m
