Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

answer:

A) Group symbol = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

Explanation:

<u>A) Classifying the soil according to USCS system</u>

 ( using 2nd image attached below )

<em>description of sand</em> :

The soil is a coarse sand since  ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200 sieve, also

The soil is a sand given that more than 50% particles passed from No 4 sieve

The soil can be a clean sand given that fines ≤ 12%

The soil can be said to be a well graded sand because the percentage of particles passing through decreases gradually over time

Group symbol as per the 2nd image attached below = SW

B) Group name = well graded sand , fine to coarse sand

C) It is not a clean sand given that ≤ 50% particles are retained on No 200

7.35 and 7.36 For the beam and loading shown, (a) draw the shear and bending-moment diagrams, (b) determine the maximum absolute
Crank

Maximum absolute values of the shear = 28 KN

Maximum absolute values of bending moment = 5.7 KN.m

<h3>How to draw Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagram?</h3>

A) We can see the beam loaded in the first image attached.

For the shear diagram, let us calculate the shear from point load to point load.

From A to C, summing vertical to zero gives; ∑fy = 0: -20 - V = 0

V = -20 KN

From C to D, summing vertical to zero gives; ∑fy = 0: -20 + 48 - V = 0

V = 28 KN

From D to E, summing vertical to zero gives; ∑fy = 0: -20 + 48 - 20 - V = 0

V = 8 KN

From E to B, summing vertical to zero gives; ∑fy = 0: -20 + 48 - 20 - 20 - V = 0

V = -12 KN

For the bending moment diagram, let us calculate the bending moment from point load to point load.

At point A, the bending moment would be zero. Thus, M_A = 0 KN.m

At point C, taking moment about point C and equating to zero gives;

M_C = 0. Thus; 20(0.225) + M = 0

M = -4.5 KN.m

At point D, taking moment about point D and equating to zero gives;

M_D = 0. Thus; 20(0.525) - 48(0.3) + M = 0

M = 3.9 KN.m

At point E, taking moment about point E and equating to zero gives;

M_D = 0. Thus; 20(0.75) - 48(0.525) + 20(0.225) + M = 0

M = 5.7 KN.m

At point B, taking moment about point E and equating to zero gives;

M_E = 0. Thus; 20(1.05) - 48(0.825) + 20(0.525) + (20 * 0.3) + M = 0

M = 2.1 KN.m

2) From the attached diagrams, we can deduce that;

Maximum absolute values of the shear = 28 KN

Maximum absolute values of bending moment = 5.7 KN.m

The mass flow rate in a 4.0-m wide, 2.0-m deep channel is 4000 kg/s of water. If the velocity distribution in the channel is lin
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

V = 0.5 m/s

Explanation:

given data:

width of channel =  4 m

depth of channel = 2 m

mass flow rate = 4000 kg/s = 4 m3/s

we know that mass flow rate is given as

\dot{m}=\rho AV

Putting all the value to get the velocity of the flow

\frac{\dot{m}}{\rho A} = V

V = \frac{4000}{1000*4*2}

V = 0.5 m/s
