Answer:

a) dh_HG = 6.72 mm

b) dz' = 173 m @8000 m

Explanation:

Given:

Original height h_o = 3000 m

Descent = 100 m

Find:

what is the pressure change that your ears "pop" at, in millimeters of mercury?

If the airplane now rises to  8000 m and again begins descending, how far will the airplane descend before your ears "pop" again?

Solution:

- Assuming density of air remains constant from 3000 m to 2900 m. From Table A3:

                 p_air = 0.7423*p_SL = 0.7423*1.225 kg/m^3

                 p_air = 0.909 kg/m^3

- Manometer equation for air and mercury are as follows:

                dP = -p_air*g*descent                        dP = -p_HG*g*dh_HG

Combine the pressures dP:

               dh_HG = (p_air / p_HG)*descent

               dh_HG = 0.909*100 / 13.55*999

              dh_HG = 6.72 mm

- Assuming density of air remains constant from 8000 m to 7900 m. From Table A3:

                   p_air = 0.4292*p_SL = 0.4292*1.225 kg/m^3

                   p_air = 0.526 kg/m^3

- Manometer equation for air are as follows:

                       @8000m                                 @3000m

                dP = -p'_air*g*dz'                       dP = -p_air*g*dz

                                           

                                     dz' = p_air / p'_air * dz

                                     dz' = 0.909 / 0.526 * 100

                                     dz' = 173 m

You are the project manager assigned to construct a new 10-story office building. You are trying to estimate the costs for this
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Bottom-up Estimation

Explanation:

Bottom-up estimation is a type of project cost estimation that considers the cost of individual project activities and finally sums them up or finds the aggregates. The summation gives an idea of what the entire project will cost.

This is an effective way of estimating the cost of a project as it evaluates the costs on a wholistic basis. It also considers the tiniest details during the estimation process. The process moves from the simpler details to the more complicated details.

A large class with 1,000 students took a quiz consisting of ten questions. To get an A, students needed to get 9 or 10 questions
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

a. 0.11

b. 110 students

c. 50 students

d. 0.46

e. 460 students

f. 540 students

g. 0.96

Explanation:

(See attachment below)

a. Probability that a student got an A

To get an A, the student needs to get 9 or 10 questions right.

That means we want P(X≥9);

P(X>9) = P(9)+P(10)

= 0.06+0.05=0.11

b. How many students got an A on the quiz

Total students = 1000

Probability of getting A = 0.11 ---- Calculated from (a)

Number of students = 0.11 * 1000

Number of students = 110 students

So,the number of students that got A is 110

c. How many students did not miss a single question

For a student not to miss a single question, then that student scores a total of 10 out of possible 10

P(10) = 0.05

Total Students = 1000

Number of Students = 0.05 * 1000

Number of Students = 50 students

We see that 5

d. Probability that a student pass the quiz

To pass, a student needed to get at least 6 questions right.

So we want P(X>=6);

P(X>=) =P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)

=0.08+0.12+0.15+0.06+0.05=0.46

So, the probability of a student passing the quiz is 0.46

e. Number of students that pass the quiz

Total students = 1000

Probability of passing the quiz = 0.46 ----- Calculated from (d)

Number of students = 0.46 * 1000

Number of students = 460 students

So,the number of students that passed the test is 460

f. Number of students that failed the quiz

Total students = 1000

Total students that passed = 460 ----- Calculated from (e)

Number of students that failed = 1000 - 460

Number of students that failed = 540

So,the number of students that failed is 540

g. Probability that a student got at least one question right

This means that we want to solve for P(X>=1)

Using the complement rule,

P(X>=1) = 1 - P(X<1)

P(X>=1) = 1 - P(X=0)

P(X>=1) = 1 - 0.04

P(X>=1) = 0.96

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Answer for the question :

"the two boxcars A and B have a weight of 20 000 Ib and 30 000 Ib, respectively. If they coast freely down the incline when the brakes are applied to all the wheels of car A causing it to skid, determine the force in the coupling C between the two cars. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheels of A and the tracks is μk=0.5. The wheels of car B are free to roll. Neglect their mass in calculation."
