Using the AASHTO procedure, determine the thickness required for a base and a surface layer over existing subgrade. The structur

al number required for this pavement is 4.5. The available materials are a crushed stone base course with a material layer coefficient of 0.13 and an HMA surface with a material layer coefficient of 0.40. The drainage coefficient of the based course can be considered as 0.90.

Answer:

<u>the thickness required would be 12 inch HMA and granular base layer of 6 inches</u>

Explanation:

structural number = 4.5

stone base course material coefficient = 0.13

hma material layer coefficient = 0.40

drainage coefficient = 0.90

we will use layered analysis procedure to get thickness

D1 >= sN1/a1

when we cross multiply,

sN1 = a1D1 >=sN1

D2 >= -sN2-sN1/a2m2

sN2* + sN1* >= sN2

D3 >= sN3-(sN1*+sN2*)/a2m2

where a1,a2,a3 = layer coefficient

d1 d2 d3 = actual thickness

m2,m3 = coefficient of base

a1 = 0.4

a1 = 0.13

sN = 4.5

m2 = 0.9

D1 >= sN1/a1 = 4.5/0.4

= 11.25

thickness of surface = 12 inches

a1D1 = 0.4x12 = 4.8

we have value of sN2 = 5.5

(5.5 -4.8)/(0.13*0.9)

= 0.7/0.117

= 5.9829 inches

approximately 6 inches

so the pavement will have 12inch HMA surface and 6 inches granular base layer.

If a heat engine has an efficiency of 30% and its power output is 600 W, what is the rate of heat input from the combustion phas
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The heat input from the combustion phase is 2000 watts.

Explanation:

The energy efficiency of the heat engine (\eta), no unit, is defined by this formula:

\eta = \frac{\dot W}{\dot Q} (1)

Where:

\dot Q - Heat input, in watts.

\dot W - Power output, in watts.

If we know that \dot W = 600\,W and \eta = 0.3, then the heat input from the combustion phase is:

\eta = \frac{\dot W}{\dot Q}

\dot Q = \frac{\dot W}{\eta}

\dot Q = \frac{600\,W}{0.3}

\dot Q = 2000\,W

The heat input from the combustion phase is 2000 watts.

Write a iterative function that finds the n-th integer of the Fibonacci sequence. Then build a minimal program (main function) t
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Codes for each of the problems are explained below

Explanation:

PROBLEM 1 IN C++:

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

//fib function that calculate nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

void fib(int n){

  // l and r inital fibonacci values for n=1 and n=2;

  int l=1,r=1,c;

 

  //if n==1 or n==2 then print 1.

  if(n==1 || n==2){

      cout << 1;

      return;

  }

  //for loop runs n-2 times and calculates nth integer of fibonacci sequence.

  for(int i=0;i<n-2;i++){

      c=l+r;

      l=r;

      r=c;

      cout << "(" << i << "," << c << ") ";

  }

  //prints nth integer of the fibonacci sequence stored in c.

  cout << "\n" << c;

}

int main(){

  int n; //declared variable n

  cin >> n; //inputs n to find nth integer of the fibonacci sequence.

  fib(n);//calls function fib to calculate and print fibonacci number.

}

PROBLEM 2 IN PYTHON:

def fib(n):

   print("fib({})".format(n), end=' ')

   if n <= 1:

       return n

   else:

       return fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)

if __name__ == '__main__':

   n = int(input())

   result = fib(n)

   print()

   print(result)
