Your boss needs to recommend either the in-situ soil or the borrow material. Although you do not have much background on soil be

havior, what is your recommendation?
In providing your recommendation, you want to consider constructability issues (such as ease of compaction, moisture content). Without doing any additional tests, and based on your experience with soils, what compaction conditions would you suggest to achieve low permeability? What compaction conditions would you recommend to reduce soil expansion (swelling)?

Homes may be heated by pumping hot water through radiators. What mass of water (in g) will provide the same amount of heat when
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a mass of water required is mw= 1273.26 gr = 1.27376 Kg

Explanation:

Assuming that the steam also gives out latent heat, the heat provided should be same for cooling the hot water than cooling the steam and condense it completely:

Q = mw * cw * ΔTw = ms * cs * ΔTw + ms * L

where m = mass , c= specific heat , ΔT=temperature change, L = latent heat of condensation

therefore

mw = ( ms * cs * ΔTw + ms * L )/ (cw * ΔTw )

replacing values

mw = [182g * 2.078 J/g°C*(118°C-100°C) + 118 g * 2260 J/g ] /[4.187 J/g°C * (90.7°C-39.4°C)] = 1273.26 gr = 1.27376 Kg

Answer:  The correct answer is :  Fault block mountain with rough edges and steep cliffs

Explanation:  Snowy saws are an example of a mountain chain blocked by faults. The snowy mountains were formed because the tectonic movement forced some segments of the earth's crust up into irregular pieces and others down.

In order to fill a tank of 1000 liter volume to a pressure of 10 atm at 298K, an 11.5Kg of the gas is required. How many moles o
lesya [120]

Answer:

The molecular weight will be "28.12 g/mol".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Pressure,

P = 10 atm

  = 10\times 101325 \ Pa

  = 1013250 \ Pa

Temperature,

T = 298 K

Mass,

m = 11.5 Kg

Volume,

V = 1000 r

   = 1 \ m^3

R = 8.3145 J/mol K

Now,

By using the ideal gas law, we get

⇒ PV=nRT

o,

⇒ n=\frac{PV}{RT}

By substituting the values, we get

       =\frac{1013250\times 1}{8.3145\times 298}

       =408.94 \ moles

As we know,

⇒ Moles(n)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Molecular \ weight(MW)}

or,

⇒        MW=\frac{m}{n}

                   =\frac{11.5}{408.94}

                   =0.02812 \ Kg/mol

                   =28.12 \ g/mol
