Answer:
Option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.
Explanation:
Cheapest method of heating must have least cost per kj of energy. So, convert all the energy in the same unit (say kj) and take select the cheapest method to heat the house.
Given:
Three methods are given to heat a particular house are as follows:
Method (a)
Through Gas, this gives energy of amount $1.33/therm.
Method (b)
Through electric resistance, this gives energy of amount $0.12/KWh.
Method (c)
Through oil, this gives energy of amount $2.30/gallon.
Calculation:
Step1
Change therm to kj in method ‘a’ as follows:
$/kj.
Step2
Change kWh to kj in method ‘b’ as follows:
$/kj.
Step3
Change kWh to kj in method ‘c’ as follows:
$/kj.
Thus, the method ‘a’ has least cost as compare to method b and c.
So, option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

Explanation:
1) Under which Condition can a soil be chemically Stabilize.
Answer
a). Plasticity Index :A soil with a high value of plasticity Index is not good for various engineering projects. The introduction of line helps in reducing plasticity due cation exchange reaction.Pozzolanic reaction over time reduces plasticity and increase index strength due to the formation of calcium - silicate hydrate.

Answer:
Bending stress at point 3.96 is \sigma_b = 1.37 psi
Explanation:
Given data:
Bending Moment M is 4.176 ft-lb = 50.12 in- lb
moment of inertia I = 144 inc^4
y = 3.96 in
putting all value to get bending stress
Bending stress at point 3.96 is 
= 1.37 psi
Answer:
Head loss=0.00366 ft
Explanation:
Given :Water flow rate Q=0.15 
= 6 inch=0.5 ft
=2 inch=0.1667 ft
As we know that Q=AV
So 
=0.687 ft/sec
We know that Head loss due to sudden contraction
If nothing is given then take K=0.5
So head loss
=0.00366 ft
So head loss=0.00366 ft
