1. What is engineering? Based on your current perception, in a few sentences define the term “engineering.”

An aircraft is in a steady level turn at a flight speed of 200 ft/s and a turn rate about the local vertical of 5 deg/s. Thrust

notka56 [123]

Answer:

L= 50000 lb

D = 5000 lb

Explanation:

To maintain a level flight the lift must equal the weight in magnitude.

We know the weight is of 50000 lb, so the lift must be the same.

L = W = 50000 lb

The L/D ratio is 10 so

10 = L/D

D = L/10

D = 50000/10 = 5000 lb

To maintain steady speed the thrust must equal the drag, so

T = D = 5000 lb

A traffic flow has density 61 veh/km when the speed is 59 veh/hr. If a flow has a jam density of 122 veh/km, what is the maximum

antoniya [11.8K]

Since this traffic flow has a jam density of 122 veh/km, the maximum flow is equal to 3,599 veh/hr.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Density = 61 veh/km.

Speed = 59 km/hr.

Jam density = 122 veh/km.

<h3>How to calculate the maximum flow.</h3>

According to Greenshield Model, maximum flow is given by this formula:

$q_{max}=\frac{V_f \times K_i}{4}$

<u>Where:</u>

$V_f$ is the free flow speed.

$K_i$ is the Jam density.

In order to calculate the free flow speed, we would use this formula:

$V_f =2 V\\\\V_f =2\times 59\\\\V_f=118\;km/hr$

Substituting the parameters into the model, we have:

$q_{max}=\frac{118 \times 122}{4}\\\\q_{max}=\frac{14396}{4}$

Max flow = 3,599 veh/hr.

A light bar AD is suspended from a cable BE and supports a 20-kg block at C. The ends A and D of the bar are in contact with fri

babymother [125]

Answer:

Tension in cable BE= 196.2 N

Reactions A and D both are 73.575 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram is as attached sketch. At equilibrium, sum of forces along y axis will be 0 hence

$T_{BE}-W=0$ hence

$T_{BE}=W=20*9.81=196.2 N$

Therefore, tension in the cable, $T_{BE}=196.2 N$

Taking moments about point A, with clockwise moments as positive while anticlockwise moments as negative then

$196.2\times 0.125- 196.2\times 0.2+ D_x\times 0.2=0$

$24.525-39.24+0.2D_x=0$

$D_x=73.575 N$

Similarly,

$A_x-D_y=0$

$A_x=73.575 N$

Therefore, both reactions at A and D are 73.575 N

An excavation is at risk for cave-in and water accumulation because of the excess soil that has accumulated. What type of excava

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Among the different types of excavation protection system, as a way of preventing accidents against cave-ins, the sloping involves cutting back the trench wall at an angle inclined away from the excavation. Shoring requires installing aluminum hydraulic or other types of supports to prevent soil movement and cave-ins. Shielding protects workers by using trench boxes or other types of supports to prevent soil cave-ins (OSHA). In addition, the regulations do not allow employees to work on excavations where there is an accumulation of water. If this occurs, water on the site must be constantly removed by suitable equipment preventing water from accumulating. The entry of surface water into the excavations must also be prevented by means of diversion ditches, dam, or other suitable means.
