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

Compute the fundamental natural frequency of the transverse vibration of a uniform beam of rectanqular cross section, with one e
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The natural angular frequency of the rod is 53.56 rad/sec

Explanation:

Since the beam is free at one end and fixed at the other hence the beam is a cantilevered beam as shown in the attached figure

We know that when a unit force is placed at the end of a cantilever the displacement of the free end is given by

\Delta x=\frac{PL^3}{3EI}

Hence we can write

P=\frac{3EI\cdot \Delta x}{L^3}

Comparing with the standard spring equation F=kx we find the cantilever analogous to spring with k=\frac{3EI}{L^3}

Now the angular frequency of a spring is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

'm' is the mass of the load

Thus applying values we get

\omega _{beam}=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{3EI}{L^{3}}}{Area\times density}}

\omega _{beam}=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{3\times 20.5\times 10^{10}\times \frac{0.1\times 0.3^3}{12}}{5.9^{3}}}{0.3\times 0.1 \times 7830}}=53.56rad/sec

(b) What is the magnitude of D at 1100°C (1373 K)?

<em>A </em>

<em>The pre-exponential factor Do = 2.1 x </em>10^{-16}<em></em>

<em>The activation energy Qd = 252,609 J/mol</em>

<em>B</em>

<em>The diffusion coefficient D= 5.14 x </em>10^{-15}<em></em>

Our rule-of-thumb for presenting final results is to round to three significant digits or four if the first digit is a one. By t
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

To four significant digits = 2097 psi

Explanation:

<u>Applying the rule of thumb </u>

σ = Mc/I  ---- ( 1 )

M = 1835 Ibf in ,  I/c = 0.875 in^3

∴ c/l = 1 / 0.875 = 1.1429

back to equation 1

σ = 1835 * 1.1429 = 2097.2215 psi

To four significant digits = 2097 psi
