Answer:

Explanation:

An equal-tangent crest vertical curve is designed for 70 mi/h. The high point is at elevation 822 ft. The initial grade is +1% and the final grade is +3%. If the PVC is at station 110+00, What is the elevation of the curve at 112+62?

Solution:

Determine the design length of the vertical curve based on the stopping sight distance (SSD):

L = KA

L = K X [G1 – G2]

K = 247

L = 247 * [ 1- 3] = 494

Answer:

Hello some parts of your question is missing below is the missing part

Convection coefficient = 11 w/m^2. °c

answer : 44.83 watts

Explanation:

Given data :

surface emissivity ( ε )= 0.95

head ( sphere) diameter( D )  = 0.25 m

Temperature of sphere( T )  = 35° C

Temperature of surrounding ( T∞ )  = 25°C

Temperature of surrounding surface ( Ts ) = 15°C

б  = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

Determine the total rate of heat loss

First we calculate the surface area of the sphere

As = \pi D^{2}  

= \pi * 0.25^2 =  0.2 m^2

next we calculate heat loss due to radiation

Qrad = ε * б * As( T^{4} - T^{4} _{s} )  ---- ( 1 )

where ;

ε = 0.95

б = ( 5.67 * 10^-8 )

As = 0.2 m^2

T = 35 + 273 = 308 k

Ts = 15 + 273 = 288 k

input values into equation 1

Qrad = 0.95 * ( 5.67 * 10^-8 ) * 0.2 ( (308)^4 - ( 288)^4 )

         = 22.83  watts

Qrad ( heat loss due to radiation ) = 22.83 watts

calculate the heat loss due to convection

Qconv = h* As ( ΔT )

           = 11*0.2 ( 35 -25 )  = 22 watts

Hence total rate of heat loss

=  22 + 22.83

= 44.83 watts

The author states that chemical engineering is one of the most difficult and complex aspects of engineering. Why do you think th
marishachu [46]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

answers:

1. Chemical engineering is most difficult because it's a mix of physics, chemistry and math

2. Stoichiometry is so important because it shows how materials react, interact and play off each other

3. Yes I think consumers would notice if process control standards were not met. for example medicines, when people take Tylenol or cold pills, if the amount of time it took to kick it becomes longer, people will become aware that the product is not consistent and reliable.

4. i have no idea sorry :(

5. This is explaining how there are rules and regulations to make the workplace safe. it can be accomplished by following those rules and regulations

How much does 5 acres of land cost in the US?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Larson, an economist, who placed the total value of $23 trillion for the entire 1.9 billion acres of land in the United States. This means that the average cost for an acre of land is $12,000 or $60,000 for 5 acres of land. Almost half of the land in the US is used for agricultural purposes.

A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

COP of the heat pump is 3.013

OP of the cycle is  1.124

Explanation:

W = Q₂ - Q₁

Given

a)

Q₂ = Q₁ + W

     = 15 + 7.45

     = 22.45 kw

COP = Q₂ / W = 22.45 / 7.45 = 3.013

b)

Q₂ = 15 x 1.055 = 15.825 kw

therefore,

Q₁ = Q₂ - W

Q₁ = 15.825 - 7.45 = 8.375

∴ COP = Q₁ / W = 8.375 / 7.45 = 1.124

The flexural strength or MOR of a ceramic is 310 MPa. A block of the ceramic, which is 20 mm wide, 15 mm high, and 300 mm long,
Alja [10]

Answer:

F=6200\ \text{N}\\

Explanation:

In this problem you need to define the force that acts upon a beam in a 3 point bending problem. I put a picture of the problem taken from Wikipedia:

In this problem the flexural strength is defined with the following formula:

\sigma=\cfrac{3FL}{2bd^2}

where F is the force applied, L the length between the two rods, b the width of the ceramic block and d it's height.

The force is then defined as:

F=\cfrac{2\sigma bd^2}{3L}=6200\ \text{N}
