Earth whose in situ weight is 105lb/cf and whose compacted weight is 122 lb/cf is placed in a fill at the rate of 260 cy/hr, mea

sured as compacted earth. The thickness of the compacted layers is 7 in. A roller having a drum width of 50 in operates at a speed of 2 mph. Assume a 55-min hour operation efficiency. Determine the number of rollers required to provide the necessary compaction if four passes are specified for each layer of earth.

A polymeric extruder is turned on and immediately begins producing a product at a rate of 10 kg/min. An operator realizes 20 min
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The plot of the function production rate m(t) (in kg/min) against time t (in min) is attached to this answer.

The production rate function M(t) is:

m(t)=[H(t)\cdot10+H(t-20)\cdot5-H(t-80)\cdot14+H(t-81)\cdot9]kg/min (1)

The Laplace transform of this function is:

\displaystyle m(s)=[\frac{10+5e^{-20s}-14e^{-80s}+9e^{-81s}}{s}]kg/min    (2)

Explanation:

The function of the production rate can be considered as constant functions by parts in the domain of time. To make it a continuous function, we can use the function Heaviside (as seen in equation (1)). To join all the constant functions, we consider at which time the step for each one of them appears and sum each function multiply by the function Heaviside.

For the Laplace transform we use the following rules:

\mathcal{L}[f(x)+g(x)]=\mathcal{L}[f(x)]+\mathcal{L}[g(x)]=F(s)+G(s)    (3)

\mathcal{L}[aH(x-b)]=\displaystyle\frac{ae^{-bs}}{s}    (4)

The pressure distribution over a section of a two-dimensional wing at 4 degrees of incidence may be approximated as follows: Upp
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The lift coefficient is 0.3192 while that of the moment about the leading edge is-0.1306.

Explanation:

The Upper Surface Cp is given as

Cp_u=-0.8 *0.6 +0.1 \int\limits^1_{0.6} \, dx =-0.8*0.6+0.4*0.1

The Lower Surface Cp is given as

Cp_l=-0.4 *0.6 +0.1 \int\limits^1_{0.6} \, dx =-0.4*0.6+0.4*0.1

The difference of the Cp over the airfoil is given as

\Delta Cp=Cp_l-Cp_u\\\Delta Cp=-0.4*0.6+0.4*0.1-(-0.8*0.6-0.4*0.1)\\\Delta Cp=-0.4*0.6+0.4*0.1+0.8*0.6+0.4*0.1\\\Delta Cp=0.4*0.6+0.4*0.2\\\Delta Cp=0.32

Now the Lift Coefficient is given as

C_L=\Delta C_p cos(\alpha_i)\\C_L=0.32\times cos(4*\frac{\pi}{180})\\C_L=0.3192

Now the coefficient of moment about the leading edge is given as

C_M=-0.3*0.4*0.6-(0.6+\dfrac{0.4}{3})*0.2*0.4\\C_M=-0.1306

So the lift coefficient is 0.3192 while that of the moment about the leading edge is-0.1306.

Match the types of AI to the correct automation tasks.
Maru [420]

Answer:

Theory of Mind : A robotic head has a face that recognizes and simulates emotions.

Self aware : A robot tries to protect itself from harm

Purely Reactive : A door automatically opens when a person steps in front of it.

Limited Memory : A personal assistant software tracks a persons travel routes and suggests shorter routes.

Explanation:

Artificial intelligence is simply a technology which enables automation. It enables system perform task without being explicitly controlled. Purely reactive systems do not store Data in memory, it simply observes what going on at the moment which is what it was programmed to do and takes a step. One the machine detects someone approaching up to a certain distance, it opens.

Limited Memory systems store information about the past and this enhances its Decison making, prediction engines, self driving cars use this kind of artificial intelligence.

Theory of Mind : Here, systems are trained to detect, understand and replicate what is understood. Once the robot identifies an emotion, it replicates it.

Self - Aware : An advanced level of AI, where systems will not only be able to replicate what they see, but also make conscious decisions as to which action to take in different circumstances.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The solution code is written in Java.

  1. public class Movie {
  2.    private double  [][] seats = new double[5][5];
  3.    private double totalSales;
  4.    public Movie(){
  5.        for(int i= 0; i < this.seats.length; i++){
  6.            for(int j = 0; j < this.seats[i].length; j++){
  7.                this.seats[i][j] = 12;
  8.            }
  9.        }
  10.        this.totalSales = 0;
  11.    }
  12.    public boolean bookSeat(int i, int j)
  13.    {
  14.        if(this.seats[i][j] != 0){
  15.            this.totalSales += this.seats[i][j];
  16.            this.seats[i][j] = 0;
  17.            return true;
  18.        }else{
  19.            return false;
  20.        }
  21.    }
  22. }

Explanation:

The method, bookSeat(), as required by the question is presented from Line 16 - 26 as part of the public method in a class <em>Movie</em>.  This method take row,<em> i</em>, and column,<em> j</em>, as input.

By presuming the seats is an two-dimensional array with all its elements are  initialized 12 (Line 7 - 10). This means we presume the movie ticket price for all the seats are $12, for simplicity.

When the<em> bookSeat() </em>method is invoked, it will check if the current price of seats at row-i and column-i is 0. If not, the current price, will be added to the <em>totalSales </em>(Line 19)<em> </em>and then set the price to 0 (Line 20) and return <em>true</em> since the ticket is successfully sold (Line 21).  If it has already been sold, return <em>false</em> (Line 23).

A cartridge electrical heater is shaped as a cylinder of length L=200 mm and outer diameter D=20 mm. Under normal operating cond
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

When water is surrounding T_s = 34.17 degree C

When air surrounding T_S = 1434.7 degree C

from above calculation we can conclude that air is less effective than water  as heat transfer agent

Explanation:

Given data:

length  = 300 mm

Outer diameter  = 30 mm

Dissipated energy = 2 kw = 2000 w

Heat transfer coefficient IN WATER = 5000 W/m^2 K

Heat transfer coefficient in air  = 50 W/m^2 K

we know that q_{convection} =  P

From newton law of coding we have

q_{convection} =  hA(T_s -  T_{\infity})

T_s is surface temp.

T - temperature at surrounding

P = hA(T_s -  T_{\infity})[tex]\frac{P}{\pi hDL} =  (T_s -  T_{\infity})

solving for[/tex] T_s [/tex] w have

T_s = T_{\infty} + \frac{P}{\pi hDL}

T_s = 20 + \frac{2000}{\pi 5000\times 0.03\times 0.3}

T_s = 34.17 degree C

When air is surrounding we have

T_s = T_{\infty} + \frac{P}{\pi hDL}

T_s = 20 + \frac{2000}{\pi 2000\times 0.03\times 0.3}

T_s = 1434.7 degree C

from above calculation we can conclude that air is less effective than water  as heat transfer agent
