The in situ moisture content of a soil is 18% and the moist (total) unit weight is 105 pcf. The soil is to be excavated and tran
1 answer:
Answer: Volume= 1.16 yd³
Explanation:
We are given the in-situ moisture content= 18% and moist unit weight= 105 pcf
First we find out the dry unit weight
Dry unit weight= Moist unit weight / (1+ moisture content)
Dry unit weight=
Dry unit weight= 88.983 pcf
Now, to find the volume ( in terms of each cubic yard i.e 1 yd³ we have
Volume = Dry unit weight compacted / Dry unit weight (in-situ) * 1 yd³
Volume=
Volume= 1.16 yd³

Answer:
Explanation:
We can assume that the general formula for the drag force is given by:
And we can see that is proportional to the area. On this case we can calculate the area with the product of the width and the height. And we can express the grad force like this:
Where w is the width and h the height.
The last formula is without consider the area of the carrier, but if we use the area for the carrier we got:
If we want to find the additional power added with the carrier we just need to take the difference between the multiplication of drag force by the velocity (assuming equal velocities for both cases) of the two cases, and we got:
We can assume the same drag coeeficient and we got:
1.7 ft =0.518 m
60 mph = 26.822 m/s
In order to find the drag coeffcient we ned to estimate the Reynolds number first like this:
And the value for the kinematic vicosity was obtained from the table of physical properties of the air under standard conditions.
Now we can find the aspect ratio like this:
And we can estimate the calue of from a figure.
And we can calculate the power difference like this:
