Answer:

8 to 10 times

Explanation:

For dry road

u= 15 mph ( 1 mph = 0.44 m/s)

u= 6.7 m/s

Let take coefficient of friction( μ) of dry road is 0.7

So the de acceleration a = μ g

a= 0.7 x 10 m/s ² ( g=10 m/s ²)

a= 7 m/s ²

We know that

v= u - a t

Final speed ,v=0

0 = 6.7 - 7 x t

t= 0.95 s

For snow road

μ = 0.4

de acceleration a = μ g

a = 0.4 x 10 = 4 m/s ²

u= 30 mph= 13.41 m/s

v= u - a t

Final speed ,v=0

0 = 30 - 4 x t'

t'=7.5 s

t'=7.8 t

We can say that it will take 8 to 10 times more time as compare to dry road for stopping the vehicle.

I would say 2-3 times but I’m not quite sure

Answer:

To four significant digits = 2097 psi

Explanation:

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

Ïƒ = Mc/I ---- ( 1 )

M = 1835 Ibf in , I/c = 0.875 in^3

∴ c/l = 1 / 0.875 = 1.1429

back to equation 1

Ïƒ = 1835 * 1.1429 = 2097.2215 psi

To four significant digits = 2097 psi

the highway department is to design a roadway over a swamp area. the swamp consists of very soft fine-grained soils obviously sa

garik1379 [7]

I'd like to propose that the embankment be built in stages. Because of the possibility of abrupt coloase of structure in swampy places. Soil carrying capacity is extremely low in those places. You must first densify the soil and make it acceptable using various procedures such as grouting, vibrification, restricting, and so on. These types of jobs are critical during the earliest stages of embankment development. After that, we can begin our construction work.

What is soil?

Soil, often known as earth or soil, is a complex mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and creatures that support life. Some scientific definitions distinguish dirt from soil by limiting the former term to displaced soil only. Soil is made up of two phases: a solid phase of minerals and organic matter and a porous phase that retains gases and water. As a result, soil is a three-state system composed of solids, liquids, and gases. Soil is the result of various elements interacting throughout time, including climate, relief, creatures, and the parent components of the soil.

A horizontal 20-mm diameter tube is to carry a laminar flow of SAE 30 oil. What pressure drop. (p1-p2) is needed to produce a fl

notsponge [240]

Answer:

$P_1-P_2=795.18 Pa$

Explanation:

Given that diameter of tube= 20 mm

flow rate = 72 lt/hr

The properties of SAE 30 oil at 30°C

$\mu =155.31 mPa$

$\rho =872.5 \frac{kg}{m^3}$

We know that volume flow rate Q= AV

$2\times 10^{-5}=\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times{0.02^2}V$

V= 0.064 m/s

Now lets find Reynolds number to check the type of flow

$Re=\dfrac{\rho VD}{\mu }$

$Re=\dfrac{872.5\times 0.064\times0.020}{0.15531 }$

Re=7.18 So we can say that this is laminar flow and we know that pressure drop for laminar flow is given as

$P_1-P_2=\dfrac{32\mu VL}{d^2}$

Now by putting the values the pressure drop for per unit length

$P_1-P_2=\dfrac{32\times 0.15531\times 0.064 }{0.02^2}$

$P_1-P_2=795.18 Pa$

A ____ is marked by two sets of double yellow lines, with each set having a broken line on the inside, and a solid line on the o

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

center left-turn lane

Explanation:

A <em>center left turn lane</em> will be marked as described. The arrows, if present, generally indicate that left turns are permitted from the lane with these markings.

If the double yellow lines are solid, they are considered to be a "barrier" and are not to be crossed.
