Two soils are fully saturated with liquid (no gas present) and the soils have the same void ratio. One soil is saturated with wa

ter and the other is saturated with alcohol. The unit weight of water is approximately 1g/cm3 while that of alcohol is about 0.8 g/cm3. Which soil sample has the larger water content? Why?

Answer:

water sample have more water content

Explanation:

given data

soil 1 is saturated with  water

unit weight of water = 1 g/cm³

soil 2 is saturated with alcohol

unit weight of alcohol  = 0.8 g/cm³

solution

we get here water content that is express as

water content = S_s \times \gamma _w   ....................1

here soil is full saturated so S_s is 100% in both case

so put here value for water

water content = 100 % ×  1

water content = 1 g

and

now we get for alcohol that is

water content  = 100 % × 0.8

water content  = 0.8 g

so here water sample have more water content

The 40-ft-long A-36 steel rails on a train track are laid with a small gap between them to allow for thermal expansion. Determin
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Ф = 0.02838 ft

F  = 1,032 N

Explanation:

To find out gap delta,

As it is case of free thermal expansion,

First we start with, some assumptions we have to made to solve this problem.

1. Thermal Expansion Coefficient of Steel is ∝= 6.45 ×10^(-6)

2. Modulas of elasticity for A-36 steel is E= 200 GPa

3. Area of rail is assumed to be unit area.

The gape required can be given by,

Ф = ∝  × ΔT  × L  ... where Ф= Gap Delta in ft

                                          ΔT= Temperature rise in F

                                               = 90- (-20)

                                               =  110 F

Ф =  6.45 ×10^(-6) × 110 × 40

Ф =  28,380 × 10^(-6) ft

Ф = 0.02838 ft     .... total gape required for expansion of steel rails

Stress induced in rails is given by,

   σ     =  ∝  × ΔT  × E

          =  6.45 ×10^(-6)   × 110  × 200

  σ      =  1,41,900 Pa

Now, let's find axial force in rails,

Here,we have to consider  ΔT= 20 F.

As due to temperature change, axial force generated in rails can be find by,

F = A × ∝ × ΔT× E × L

F = 1 × 6.45 × 10^(-6) × 20 × 200 × 10^(-9) × 40

F = 25,800 × 40 × 10^(-3)

F = 10,32,000 × 10^(-3)

F= 1,032 N

Finally, due to temperature change, rail is subjected to axial force, axial stress.

Answer:

John should detail his Scrum Master.

Explanation:

The Team Lead or Scrum Master coordinates the tasks of individual team members and supports the progress of the team. The Scrum Master usually receives instructions from the Product Owner and then ensures that the tasks are performed accordingly.  She also coaches the Development Team and works with the Product Owner to carry out daily development activities.  She also drives the Scrum Values and Principles, ensuring that the team members understand and practice them.

A gas in a piston–cylinder assembly undergoes a compression process for which the relation between pressure and volume is given
viktelen [127]

Answer:

A.) P = 2bar, W = - 12kJ

B.) P = 0.8 bar, W = - 7.3 kJ

C.) P = 0.608 bar, W = - 6.4kJ

Explanation: Given that the relation between pressure and volume is

PV^n = constant.

That is, P1V1^n = P2V2^n

P1 = P2 × ( V2/V1 )^n

If the initial volume V1 = 0.1 m3,

the final volume V2 = 0.04 m3, and

the final pressure P2 = 2 bar. 

A.) When n = 0

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

(V2/V1)^0 = 1

Therefore, P2 = P1 = 2 bar

Work = ∫ PdV = constant × dV

Work = 2 × 10^5 × [ 0.04 - 0.1 ]

Work = 200000 × - 0.06

Work = - 12000J

Work = - 12 kJ

B.) When n = 1

P1 = 2 × (0.04/0.1)^1

P1 = 2 × 0.4 = 0.8 bar

Work = ∫ PdV = constant × ∫dV/V

Work = P1V1 × ln ( V2/V1 )

Work = 0.8 ×10^5 × 0.1 × ln 0.4

Work = - 7330.3J

Work = -7.33 kJ

C.) When n = 1.3

P1 = 2 × (0.04/0.1)^1.3

P1 = 0.6077 bar

Work = ∫ PdV

Work = (P2V2 - P1V1)/ ( 1 - 1.3 )

Work = (2×10^5×0.04) - (0.608 10^5×0.1)/ ( 1 - 1.3 )

Work = (8000 - 6080)/ -0.3

Work = -1920/0.3

Work = -6400 J

Work = -6.4 kJ
