Two aerial photographs were taken 30 seconds apart over one east-bound lane of l-80 near Grand Island, NE. The following results

were recorded.
Position from start of road section Vehicle 2000 2300 1700 1200 600 2940 3200 2400 2100 1730 1000 2 3 4
Plot the trajectories of the vehicles on graph paper and compute the average flow (vph), density (veh/mi) and space mean speed (mph) over the 3000 ft length of the lane.

Answer:

the average flow (vph) = 222.69 veh/hr.  

The average velocity = 111348 ft/hr.

density = 2 × 10⁻³ veh/ft.

Explanation:

The first thing to do in this particular question is to determine the average velocity.

The average velocity = [ ( 2940 - 2000/30) + ( 3200 - 2300/30) + ( 2400 - 1700/30) + ( 2100 - 1200) + ( 1730 - 600/30) + ( 1000 - 0/30).

The average velocity = [31.33 + 30 + 23.33 + 30 + 37.66 + 33.66]/ 6 = 30.99 ft/sec.

Thus, 30.99 ft/sec × 60 × 60 = 111348 ft/hr.

The next thing to do is to determine the density. therefore, the density = 6/ 3000 = 2 × 10⁻³ veh/ft.  

The average flow (vph) =  111348 ft/hr × 2 × 10⁻³ veh/ft.  = 222.69 veh/ hr.

Also, the space mean speed (mph) over the 3000 ft length of the lane = 6/ [ 1/31.33 + 1/30 + 1/23.33 + 1/30 + 1/37.66 + 1/33.66] = 6/ 0.1977 = 30.34 ft/sec.

zaharov [31]
The coil polarity in a waste-spark system is determined by the direction in which the coil is wound (left-hand rule for conventional current flow)and can’t be changed. For example, if a V-8 engine has a firing order of 18436572 and the number 1 cylinder is on compression, which cylinder will be on the exhaust stroke?

How many robots does bailey nursery own ​
givi [52]

Answer:

The Bailey family has flourished during its business’ 110-year history. But Bailey Nurseries’ leaders still operate with the belief that the family doesn’t always know best. The company has grown from a one-man operation selling fruit trees and ornamental shrubs to one of the largest wholesale nurseries in the United States, thanks to insights from those who are family and those who aren’t.

“For a business to thrive, you have to ask for outside help,” says Terri McEnaney, president of the Newport-based company and a fourth-generation family member. “We get an outside perspective through family business programs, advisors and our board, because you can get a bit ingrained in your own way of thinking.”

When Bailey Nurseries chose its current leader in 2000, it brought in a facilitator who gathered insights from key employees, board members and owners. Third-generation leaders (and brothers) Gordie and Rod Bailey picked Rod’s daughter McEnaney, who had experience both inside and outside the company.
