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

evablogger [386]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The loop invariant has to satisfy some amount of requirements to be of good use. Another complex factor as to why a loop is the question of loop termination. A loop that doesn’t terminate can’t invariably be correct, and in fact the computation in whatever form amounts to nothing. The total axiomatic description of a while construct will have to involve all of the following to be true, in which I is the loop invariant:

P => I

{I and B} S {I}

(I and (not B)) => Q

Then the loop terminates

An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle that uses refrigerant-134a as its working fluid maintains a condenser at 800 kPa
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

COP = 3.828

W' = 39.18 Kw

Explanation:

From the table A-11 i attached, we can find the entropy for the state 1 at -20°C.

h1 = 238.43 KJ/Kg

s1 = 0.94575 KJ/Kg.K

From table A-12 attached we can do the same for states 3 and 4 but just enthalpy at 800 KPa.

h3 = h4 = hf = 95.47 KJ/Kg

For state 2, we can calculate the enthalpy from table A-13 attached using interpolation at 800 KPa and the condition s2 = s1. We have;

h2 = 275.75 KJ/Kg

The power would be determined from the energy balance in state 1-2 where the mass flow rate will be expressed through the energy balance in state 4-1.

W' = m'(h2 - h1)

W' = Q'_L((h2 - h1)/(h1 - h4))

Where Q'_L = 150 kW

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

W' = 150((275.75 - 238.43)/(238.43 - 95.47))

W' = 39.18 Kw

Formula foe COP is;

COP = Q'_L/W'

COP = 150/39.18

COP = 3.828
