Answer: The total vehicle delay is

39sec/veh

Explanation: we shall define only the values that are important to this question, so that the solution will be very clear for your understanding.

Effective red time (r) = 25sec

Arrival rate (A) = 900veh/h = 0.25veh/sec

Departure rate (D) = 1800veh/h = 0.5veh/sec

STEP1: FIND THE TRAFFIC INTENSITY (p)

p = A ÷ D

p = 0.25 ÷ 0.5 = 0.5

STEP 2: FIND THE TOTAL VEHICLE DELAY AFTER ONE CYCLE

The total vehicle delay is how long it will take a vehicle to wait on the queue, before passing.

Dt = (A × r^2) ÷ 2(1 - p)

Dt = (0.25 × 25^2) ÷ 2(1 - 0.5)

Dt = 156.25 ÷ 4 = 39.0625

Therefore the total vehicle delay after one cycle is;

Dt = 39

How to draw the output voltage waveform rectifier
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.

AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.

DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.

Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.

Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.

The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.

Q12-W12 = -4014.26

Mol

AU2s = Q23= 5601.55

Mol

AUs¡ = Ws¡ = -5601.55

Explanation:

A clear details for the question is also attached.

(b) The P,V and T for state 1,2 and 3

P =1 bar Ti = 300 K and Vi from ideal gas Vi=

10

24.9x10 m

=

P-5 bar

Due to step 12 is isothermal: T1 = T2= 300 K and

VVi24.9 x 10x-4.9 x 10-3 *

The values at 3 calclated by Uing step 3l Adiabatic process

B-P ()

Since step 23 is Isochoric: Va =Vs= 4.99 m* and 7=

14

Ps-1x(4.99 x 103

P-1x(29x 10)

9.49 barr

And Ts =Ta E)- 300(

569.5 K

5

(c) For step 12: Isothermal, Since AT = 0 then AH12 = AU12 = 0 and

Work done for Isotermal process define as

8.314 x 300 In =4014.26

Wi2= RTi ln

mol

And fromn first law of thermodynamic

AU12= W12 +Q12

Q12-W12 = -4014.26

Mol

F'or step 23 Isochoric: AV = 0 Since volume change is zero W23= 0 and

Alls = Cp(L3-12)=5 x 8.311 (569.5 - 300) = 7812.18-

AU23= C (13-72) =5 x 8.314 (569.3 - 300) = 5601.53

Inol

Now from first law of thermodynamic the Q23

AU2s = Q23= 5601.55

Mol

For step 3-1 Adiabatic: Since in this process no heat transfer occur Q31= 0

and

AH

C,(T -Ts)=x 8.314 (300- 569.5)= -7842.18

mol

AU=C, (T¡-T)= x 8.314 (300

-5601.55

569.5)

mol

Now from first law of thermodynamie the Ws1

J

mol

AUs¡ = Ws¡ = -5601.55
