Answer:

The answer is a) True

Explanation:

"Statically Indeterminate" means the number of unknowns you have exceed the number of available equations you can get from the static analysis, then the Static (equilibrium) analysis isn't enough to solve the problem.

Tracing constitutive models help to know where a load or reaction is located, also what kind of support settlements are used. This way you will know how the deflection behaves and also the momentum and torques location depending on the method you decide to use to solve the Statically Indeterminate system.

The soil borrow material to be used to construct a highway embankment has a mass unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf and a water content

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Given information

Bulk unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf

Water content of 7.3%,=0.073

Specific gravity of the soil solids is 2.62

Specifications

Dry unit weight is 113 lb/cf

Water content is 6%.

Volume of embankment is 440,000-cy

Borrow material

$Dry_{unit,weight}=\frac {bulk_{unit,weight}}{1+water_{content}}=\frac {107}{1+0.073}= 99.72041 lb/cf$

Embankment

Considering that the volume of embankment is inversely proportional to the dry unit weight

$\frac {V_{embankment}}{V_{borrow}}=\frac {Dry_{borrow}}{Dry_{embankment}}$

Therefore, $V_{borrow}=V_{embankment} *\frac {Dry_{embarkement}}{Dry_{borrow}}$

$V_{borrow}=440,000-cy*\frac {113 lb/cf }{99.72041 lb/cf }= 498594-cy$

Therefore, volume of borrow material is 498594-cy

(b)

The weight of water in embankment is found by multiplying the moisture content and dry unit weight.

Assuming that all the specifications are achieved, weight of water in embankment=0.06*113=6.78 lb/cf

Since $1 yd^{3}= 27 ft^{3}$

The embankment requires water of 6.78*27*440000= 80546400 lb

Borrow materials’ water will also be 0.073*99.72041=7.27959 lb/cf

Borrow material requires water of 7.27959*27*498594=97998120 lb

Extra water between borrow material and embankment=97998120 lb-80546400 lb=17451720 lb

$Unit_{weight}=\frac {17451720}{498594}=35.00186 lb$

1 gallon is approximately $8.35 yd^{3}$ hence

$\frac {35.00186 lb/yd^{3}}{8.35}=4.19184 gallons/yd^{3}$

That's approximately 4.2 gallons

A saturated 1.5 ft3 clay sample has a natural water content of 25%, shrinkage limit (SL) of 12% and a specific gravity (GS) of 2

Svetllana [295]

$79 f t^{3}$ is the volume of the sample when the water content is 10%.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given Data:

$V_{1}=100\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}$

First has a natural water content of 25% = $\frac{25}{100}$ = 0.25

Shrinkage limit, $w_{1}=12 \%=\frac{12}{100}=0.12$

$G_{s}=2.70$

We need to determine the volume of the sample when the water content is 10% (0.10). As we know,

$V \propto[1+e]$

$\frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}}=\frac{1+e_{2}}{1+e_{1}}$ ------> eq 1

$e_{1}=\frac{w_{1} \times G_{s}}{S_{r}}$

The above equation is at $S_{r}=1$ ,

$e_{1}=w_{1} \times G_{s}$

Applying the given values, we get

$e_{1}=0.25 \times 2.70=0.675$

Shrinkage limit is lowest water content

$e_{2}=w_{2} \times G_{s}$

Applying the given values, we get

$e_{2}=0.12 \times 2.70=0.324$

Applying the found values in eq 1, we get

$\frac{V_{2}}{100}=\frac{1+0.324}{1+0.675}=\frac{1.324}{1.675}=0.7904$

$V_{2}=0.7904 \times 100=79\ \mathrm{ft}^{3}$

1. (5 pts) An adiabatic steam turbine operating reversibly in a powerplant receives 5 kg/s steam at 3000 kPa, 500 °C. Twenty per

KiRa [710]

Answer:

temperature of first extraction 330.8°C

temperature of second extraction 140.8°C

power output=3168Kw

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem we must use the following steps.

1. We will call 1 the water vapor inlet, 2 the first extraction at 100kPa and 3 the second extraction at 200kPa

2. We use the continuity equation that states that the mass flow that enters must equal the two mass flows that leave

m1=m2+m3

As the problem says, 20% of the flow represents the first extraction for which 5 * 20% = 1kg / s

solving

5=1+m3

m3=4kg/s

we find the enthalpies and temeperatures in each of the states, using thermodynamic tables

Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)

through prior knowledge of two other properties

4.we find the enthalpy and entropy of state 1 using pressure and temperature

h1=Enthalpy(Water;T=T1;P=P1)

h1=3457KJ/kg

s1=Entropy(Water;T=T1;P=P1)

s1=7.234KJ/kg

remembering that it is a reversible process we find the enthalpy and the temperature in the first extraction with the pressure 1000 kPa and the entropy of state 1

h2=Enthalpy(Water;s=s1;P=P2)

h2=3116KJ/kg

T2=Temperature(Water;P=P2;s=s1)

T2=330.8°C

5.we find the enthalpy and the temperature in the second extraction with the pressure 200 kPav y the entropy of state 1

h3=Enthalpy(Water;s=s1;P=P3)

h3=2750KJ/kg

T3=Temperature(Water;P=P3;s=s1)

T3=140.8°C

Finally, to find the power of the turbine, we must use the first law of thermodynamics that states that the energy that enters is the same that must come out.

For this case, the turbine uses a mass flow of 5kg / s until the first extraction, and then uses a mass flow of 4kg / s for the second extraction, taking into account the above we infer the following equation

W=m1(h1-h2)+m3(h2-h3)

W=5(3457-3116)+4(3116-2750)=3168Kw
