Two routes connect an origin and a destination. Routes 1 and 2 have performance functions t1 = 2 + X1 and t2 = 1 + X2, where the

t's are in minutes and the x's are in thousands of vehicles per hour. The travel times on the routes are known to be in user equilibrium. If an observation for route 1 finds that the gaps between 30% of the vehicles are less than 6 seconds. Estimate the volume and average travel times for the two routes

Solution :

Given

$t_1=2+x_1$

$t_2=1+x_2$

Now,

$$P(h$

$0.4=1-P(h \geq5)$

$0.6=P(h \geq5)$

$0.6= e^{\frac{-x_1 5}{3600}}$

Therefore, $x_1=368 \ veh/h$

$=\frac{368}{1000} = 0.368$

Given, $t_1=2+x_1$

= 2 + 0.368

= 2.368 min

At user equilibrium, $t_2=t_1$

∴ $t_2$ = 2.368 min

$t_2=1+x_2$

$2.368=1+x_2$

$x_2 = 1.368$

$x_2 = 1.368 \times 1000$

= 1368 veh/h

Holmes owns two suits: one black and one tweed. He always wears either a tweed suit or sandals. Whenever he wears his tweed suit

vazorg [7]

Answer:

He wore his black suit, another color of shirt (not purple) and shoes

Explanation:

Holmes owns two suits: one black and one tweed.

Whenever he wears his tweed suit and a purple shirt, he chooses not to wear a tie and whenever he wears sandals, he always wears a purple shirt.

So, if he wore a bow tie yesterday, it means he wore his black suit, another color of shirt (not purple) and shoes because the shirt color is not purple

Answer: ALL CAREFULLY ANSWERED CORRECTLY.

Explanation:

1) A loaf of Bread PHYSICAL SYSTEM

✓ How can the environment affect the edibility of the bread

✓ What are the constituents that makes up the bread

✓ What process is involved in these constituents mixing to form the loaf.

2) The law of thermodynamics makes us to understand that when heat/energy passes through a system, the systems internal energy changes with respect to the conservation of energy law. That is energy lost = energy gained. Typically, ice would melt in a cup of hot tea because of the thermal energy in the molecules of the hot tea. When you heat a material, you are adding thermal kinetic energy to its molecules and usually raising its temperature. The temperature of the ice raises due to the kinetic energy added to it and it melts to water.

3) The theory of systems view the world as a complex system of interconnected parts. If we consider the society; (financial systems, political systems, etc) we will agree that they individually have their own components and it's the summation of this components that makes the system, this implies that system thinking could be applicable in this kinda of systems as long as they are made up of components.

4) Technology has boosted every sector of our lives and it has the capacity to do more. Restricting it's importance to entertainment alone would be an underusing of its potentials. Engineering students infact should not need any drive to be encouraged about maximizing all it can do in shaping our world.

5) ~ Nature shows its splendid soul

~Never ceases to leave us in amazement

~And we are in love

Burn rate can be affected by: A. Variations in chamber pressure B. Variations in initial grain temperature C. Gas flow velocity

Digiron [165]

Answer: D) All of the above

Explanation:

Burn rate can be affected by all of the above reasons as, variation in chamber pressure because the pressure are dependence on the burn rate and temperature variation in initial gain can affect the rate of the chemical reactions and initial gain in the temperature increased the burning rate. As, gas flow velocity also influenced to increasing the burn rate as it flowing parallel to the surface burning. Burn rate is also known as erosive burning because of the variation in flow velocity and chamber pressure.

Do heavier cars really use more gasoline? Suppose a car is chosen at random. Let x be the weight of the car (in hundreds of poun

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data to solve. But I have found the similar question on the internet. So, I will be using the data from that question to solve this question for the sack of concept and understanding.

Data Given:

x = 27 , 44 , 32 , 47, 23 , 40, 34, 52

y = 30, 19, 24, 13 , 29, 19, 21, 14

It is given that,

∑x = 299

∑y = 167

∑ $x^{2}$ = 11887

∑ $y^{2}$ = 3773

We are asked to verify the above values manually in this question.

So,

1. ∑x = 299

Let's verify it:

∑x = 27 + 44 + 32 + 47 + 23 + 40 + 34 + 52

∑x = 299

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

2. ∑y = 167

Let's verify it:

∑y = 30 + 19 + 24 + 13 + 29 + 19 + 21 + 14

∑y = 169

No, it is not equal to the given value.

3. ∑ $x^{2}$ = 11887

Let's verify it:

For this to find, first we need to square all the value of x individually and then add them together to verify.

∑ $x^{2}$ = $27^{2}$ + $44^{2}$ + $32^{2}$ + $47^{2}$ + $23^{2}$ + $40^{2}$ + $34^{2}$ + $52^{2}$

∑ $x^{2}$ = 11,887

Yes, it is equal to the given value. Hence, verified.

4. ∑ $y^{2}$ = 3773

Let's verify it:

Again, for this we need to find the squares of all the y values and then add them together to verify it.

∑ $y^{2}$ = $30^{2}$ + $19^{2}$ + $24^{2}$ + $13^{2}$ + $29^{2}$ + $19^{2}$ + $21^{2}$ + $14^{2}$

∑ $y^{2}$ = 3,845

No, it is not equal to the given value.

The component of a regenerative vapor power cycle that permits only liquid to pass through to a region of lower pressure is a?

Zepler [3.9K]

The component of a regenerative vapor power cycle that permits only liquid to pass through to a region of lower pressure is a Valve/trap.

<h3>What is vapor?</h3>

In physics, a substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical temperature is referred to as a vapor or vapor.
This means that the vapor can be condensed to a liquid by increasing the pressure on it without decreasing the temperature.
An aerosol is distinct from a vapor.
A suspension of minute liquid, solid, or both types of particles in a gas is known as an aerosol.

<h3>Why does vapor form?</h3>

Evaporation or sublimation are two processes that can be used to create it.
Unlike clouds, fog, or mist, which are only suspended drops of liquid water in the atmosphere, watevaporur is a gas and cannot be seen.
In the atmosphere, water vapor frequently exists below the boiling point.
