Answer: LED have the lowest cost of operation.
Explanation:
If we ignore the initial procurement cost of the items the operational cost of any device consuming electricity is given by
Among the three item's LED consumes the lowest power to give the same level of brightness as compared to the other 2 item's thus LED's shall have the lowest operational cost.
Answer:
S = 5.7209 M
Explanation:
Given data:
B = 20.1 m
conductivity ( K ) = 14.9 m/day
Storativity ( s ) = 0.0051
1 gpm = 5.451 m^3/day
calculate the Transmissibility ( T ) = K * B
= 14.9 * 20.1 = 299.5 m^2/day
Note :
t = 1
U = ( r^2* S ) / (4*T*<em> t </em>)
= ( 7^2 * 0.0051 ) / ( 4 * 299.5 * 1 ) = 2.0859 * 10^-4
Applying the thesis method
W(u) = -0.5772 - In(U)
= 7.9
next we calculate the pumping rate from well ( Q ) in m^3/day
= 500 * 5.451 m^3 /day
= 2725.5 m^3 /day
Finally calculate the drawdown at a distance of 7.0 m form the well after 1 day of pumping
S =
where : Q = 2725.5
T = 299.5
W(u) = 7.9
substitute the given values into equation above
S = 5.7209 M
Answer:
maximum speed for safe vehicle operation = 55mph
Explanation:
Given data :
radius ( R ) = 678 ft
old building located ( m )= 30 ft
super elevation = 0.06
<u>Determine the maximum speed for safe vehicle operation </u>
firstly calculate the stopping sight distance
m = R ( 1 - cos ) ---- ( 1 )
R = 678
m ( horizontal sightline ) = 30 ft
back to equation 1
30 = 678 ( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) )
( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) ) = 30 / 678 = 0.044
cos = 1.044
hence ; 28.65 * s = 678 * 0.2956
s = 6.99 ≈ 7 ft
next we will calculate the design speed ( u ) using the formula below
S = 1.47 ut + ---- ( 2 )
t = reaction time, a = vehicle acceleration, G1 = grade percentage
assuming ; t = 2.5 sec , a = 11.2 ft/sec^2, G1 = 0
back to equation 2
6.99 = 1.47 * u * 2.5 +
3.675 u + 0.0958 u^2 - 6.99 = 0
u ( 3.675 + 0.0958 u ) = 6.99

Answer:
a) Δd(change in wood diameter) = 5%
b) The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter
C) new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in
Explanation:
Wood pole diameter = 10 inches
moisture content = 5%
FSP = 30%
A) The percentage change in the wood's diameter
note : moisture fluctuations from 5% to 30% causes dimensional changes in the wood but above 30% up to 55% causes no change. hence this formula can be used to calculate percentage change in the wood's diameter
Δd/d = 1/5(30 - 5)
Δd/d = 5%
Δd = 5%
B) would the wood swell or shrink
The wood would swell since the moisture content is increasing which will also led to increase in the wood's diameter
C) The new diameter of the wood
D2 = D + D( )
D = initial diameter= 10 in , M1 = initial moisture content = 5%
therefore D2 = 10 + 10( 5/100 )
new diameter (D2) = 10.5 in
