A highway reconstruction project is being undertaken to reduce crash rates. The reconstruction involves a major realignment of t

he highway such that a 60mph design speed is attained. At one point on the highway, a 720-ft equal tangent crest vertical curve exists. Measurements show that 3 40 stations from the PVC, the vertical curve offset is 3.5ft. Assess the adequacy of this existing curve in light of the reconstruction design speed of 60mph and, if the existing curve is inadequate, compute a satisfactory curve length.

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

Which of these fuel injection systems operates with fuel injectors located only in the intake manifold near each intake
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

C. Multipoint fuel injection

Explanation:

A fuel injection system can be defined as a system found in the engine of most automobile cars, used for the supply of a precise amount of fuel or fuel-air mixture to the cylinders in an internal combustion engine through the use of an injector.

There are different types of fuel injection system and these includes;

I. Central-point injection.

II. Throttle (single point) body injection.

III. Gasoline direct injection.

IV. Multipoint (port) fuel injection.

Multipoint fuel injection is a type of fuel injection system that operates with fuel injectors located only in the intake manifold near each intake valve and sprays fuel toward the valve. As a result, it allows for the supply of a precise amount of fuel and as such creating a better air-fuel ratio for automobile cars.

A gas pressure difference is applied to the legs of a U-tube manometer filled with a liquid with specific gravity of 1.7. The ma
MArishka [77]

Answer:

5320.6 Pascal

Explanation:

Manometer is a pressure measuring device use to measure gas pressure .

Pressure difference in Manometer is a function of density,gravity and the height difference of the liquid.

Pressure difference = density x acceleration due to gravity x difference in height of liquid

Density of liquid = specific gravity of object x density of water.

Density of water = 997 kg/m^3

Specific gravity of liquid = 1.7

Density of liquid = 997 x 1.7 =1694.9kg/m^3

g= 9.81 m/s^2

h =320mm = 0.320m

Pressure difference = 1694.9 x 9.81 x 0.320 = 5320.6 Pascal
