Answer:

Explanation:

Total Stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance and the braking distance, such that ;

d=dr + db =1.47St +[ ( Si 2- Sf2 ) / 30(F/0.01G) ]

In this case, the reaction time, t, is the AASHTO standard, or 2. 5 s. The friction factor, F, is based upon the standard AASHTO deceleration rate of 11.2 ft/s2 (F = 11.2/32.2 = 0.348) and the speed is given as 40 mph.

d = 1.47x60x2.5+ [ (60^2-40^2) / 30x 0.348 ]

d = 220.5 + ( (3600-1600) / 10.44 )

d = 220.5 + 191.57

d = 412.07ft.

Since the sign can be seen clearly at 120 ft.

Then the position of the sign should be,

= 412.07 - 120

= 292.07 ft

Oil of density 780 kg/m3 is flowing at a velocity of 20 m/s at the atmospheric pressure in a horizontal cylindrical tube elevate
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

radius = 0.045 m

Explanation:

Given data:

density of oil = 780 kg/m^3

velocity = 20 m/s

height = 25 m

Total energy is = 57.5 kW

we have now

E = kinetic energy+ potential energy +  flow work

E = \dot m ( \frac{v^2}{2] +  zg + p\nu)

E = \dot m( \frac{v^2}{2] +  zg + p_{atm} \frac{1}{\rho})

57.5 \times 10^3 = \dot m ( \frac{20^2}{2} + 25 \times 9.81 + 101325 \frac{1}{780})

solving for flow rate

\dot m = 99.977we know that [tex]\dot m  = \rho AV

\dot m  = 780 \frac{\pi}{4} D^2\times 16

solving for d

99.97 = 780 \times \frac{\pi}{4} D^2\times 16

d = 0.090 m

so radius = 0.045 m

You are recording a friend's 3-minute song with 24 bits per sample at 96 kHz sampling rate for a 5.1 surround sound system (6 ch
djyliett [7]

Answer:

save space = 1.9626 Gibibits

Explanation:

given data

recording song time = 3 minute = 180 seconds

song per sample =  24 bits per sample

frequency = 96 kHz

surround sound system = 5.1

solution

first we get here required space for 24 bits at  96 kHz that is

required space = 24 × 96 × 10³ × 6 × 180

required space = 2.48832 × 10^{9}  bits

as 1 Gib bit = 2^{30} bits

so required space = 2.48832 × 10^{9}  bits ÷  2^{30} bits

required space = 2.3174 Gibibits   ...............1

and

space required to save record 16 bit at 44.1 kHz

space required = 16 × 44.1 × 10³ × 3 × 180

space required = 0.381024 × 10^{9}  bits

space required = 0.381024 × 10^{9}  bits  ÷  2^{30} bits  

space required = 0.3548 Gibibits    ...........2

so

we get here that save space in 16 bit at 44.1 kHz

save space = 2.3174 Gibibit - 0.3548 Gibibits

save space = 1.9626 Gibibits
