A multilane highway (two lanes in each direction) is on level terrain. The free-flow speed has been measured at 45 mi/h. The pea

k-hour directional traffic flow is 1300 vehicles with 8% heavy vehicles. If the peak-hour factor is 0.85, determine the highway's level of service.

Answer:

17.71 veh/mi/ln

Explanation:

Given,

Free Flow Speed, FFS = 45 mph

Number of lanes in each direction = 2

Peak Flow, V = 1300 veh/hr

Peak-hour factor = 0.85

HV = 8 %

Level Terrain

fHV = 1/ (1 + 0.08 (1.5-1)) = 1/1.04 = 0.96

fP = 1.0

Peak Flow Rate, Vp = V / (PHV*n*fHV*fP) = 1300/(0.96*2*0.85*1.0) = 796.57 ~ 797 veh/hr/ln

Vp < 1400

S = FFS = 45 mph

Density = Vp/S = (797) / (45) = 17.71 veh/mi/ln

Density of LOS B should lie between 11 – 18 veh/mi/ln

Holmes owns two suits: one black and one tweed. He always wears either a tweed suit or sandals. Whenever he wears his tweed suit
vazorg [7]

Answer:

He wore his black suit, another color of shirt (not purple) and shoes

Explanation:

Holmes owns two suits: one black and one tweed.

Whenever he wears his tweed suit and a purple shirt, he chooses not to wear a tie and whenever he wears sandals, he always wears a purple shirt.

So, if he wore a bow tie yesterday, it means he wore his black suit, another color of shirt (not purple) and shoes because the shirt color is not purple

For a steel alloy it has been determined that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 h duration will raise the carbon concentration
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

135 hour

Explanation:

It is given that a carburizing heat treatment of 15 hour will raise the carbon concentration by 0.35 wt% at a point of 2 mm from the surface.

We have to find the time necessary to achieve the same concentration at a 6 mm position.

we know that \frac{x_1^2}{Dt}=constant where x is distance and t is time .As the temperature is constant so D will be also constant

So \frac{x_1^2}{t}=constant

then \frac{x_1^2}{t_1}=\frac{x_2^2}{t_2} we have given x_1=2 mm\ ,t_1=15 hour\ ,x_2=6\ mm and we have to find t_2 putting all these value in equation

\frac{2^2}{15}=\frac{6^2}{t_2}

so t_2=135\ hour

A silicon diode has a saturation current of 6 nA at 25 degrees Celcius. What is the saturation current at 100 degrees Celsius?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

0.0659 A

Explanation:

Given that :

I_{0}  =  6nA ( saturation current )

at 25°c = 300 k ( room temperature )

n = 2  for silicon diode

Determine the saturation current at 100 degrees = 373 k

Diode equation at room temperature = I = Io \frac{V}{e^{0.025*n} }

next we have to determine the value of V at 373 k

q / kT = (1.6 * 10^-19) / (1.38 * 10^-23 * 373) = 31.08 V^-1

Given that I is constant

Io = \frac{e^{0.025*2} }{31.08} =  0.0659 A
