Answer:

correct option is (B) 315,500

Explanation:

given data

volume = 320,000 yd³ = 8640000 ft³

dry unit weight = 106 pcf

moisture content = 18.2%

total unit weight = 122 pcf

moisture content = 16.7%

to find out

volume of borrow lyd needed

solution

first we get here weight of material that is

weight = volume × unit weight

weight = 8640000 ×  122

weight = 1054080000 lb

that weight is weight of water + weight of solid so

0.167 × weight is weight of water + weight of solid ) = 1054080000 lb

and weight of solid = \frac{1054080000}{1.167}

weight of soil solid is = 903239075 pound

and weight of water = 150840925 pound

so volume of soil = 903239075 ÷ 106 lb/ft³ = 8521123.34 ft³

and volume required =  8521123.34 ft³ ÷ 27 ft³ =  315597.161 yd³

volume required = 315500 yd³

so correct option is (B) 315,500

Block D of the mechanism is confined to move within the slot of member CB. Link AD is rotating at a constant rate of ωAD = 6 rad
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

1) 1.71 rad/s

2) -6.22 rad/s²

Explanation:

Choose point C to be the origin.

Using geometry, we can show that the coordinates of point A are:

(a cos 30°, a sin 30° − b)

Therefore, the coordinates of point D at time t are:

(a cos 30° − b sin(ωt), a sin 30° − b + b cos(ωt))

The angle formed by CB with the x-axis is therefore:

tan θ = (a sin 30° − b + b cos(ωt)) / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))

1) Taking the derivative with respect to time, we can find the angular velocity:

sec² θ dθ/dt = [(a cos 30° − b sin(ωt)) (-bω sin(ωt)) − (a sin 30° − b + b cos(ωt)) (-bω cos(ωt))] / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

sec² θ dθ/dt = -bω [(a cos 30° − b sin(ωt)) sin(ωt) − (a sin 30° − b + b cos(ωt)) cos(ωt)] / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

sec² θ dθ/dt = -bω [(a cos 30° sin(ωt) − b sin²(ωt)) − (a sin 30° cos(ωt) − b + b cos²(ωt))] / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

sec² θ dθ/dt = -bω (a cos 30° sin(ωt) − b sin²(ωt) − a sin 30° cos(ωt) + b − b cos²(ωt)) / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

sec² θ dθ/dt = -bω (a cos 30° sin(ωt) − a sin 30° cos(ωt)) / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

sec² θ dθ/dt = -abω (cos 30° sin(ωt) − sin 30° cos(ωt)) / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))²

We know at the moment shown, a = 350 mm, b = 200 mm, θ = 30°, ω = 6 rad/s, and t = 0 s.

sec² 30° dθ/dt = -(350) (200) (6) (cos 30° sin(0) − sin 30° cos(0)) / (350 cos 30° − 200 sin(0))²

sec² 30° dθ/dt = -(350) (200) (6) (-sin 30°) / (350 cos 30°)²

dθ/dt = (200) (6) (1/2) / 350

dθ/dt = 600 / 350

dθ/dt = 1.71 rad/s

2) Taking the second derivative of θ with respect to time, we can find the angular acceleration.

sec² θ d²θ/dt² + 2 sec² θ tan θ dθ/dt = -abω [(a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))² (ω cos 30° cos(ωt) + ω sin 30° sin(ωt)) − (cos 30° sin(ωt) − sin 30° cos(ωt)) (2 (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt)) (-bω cos(ωt)))] / (a cos 30° − b sin(ωt))⁴

At t = 0:

sec² θ d²θ/dt² + 2 sec² θ tan θ dθ/dt = -abω [(a cos 30°)² (ω cos 30°) − (0 − sin 30°) (2 (a cos 30°) (-bω))] / (a cos 30°)⁴

sec² θ d²θ/dt² + 2 sec² θ tan θ dθ/dt = -abω (a²ω cos³ 30° − 2abω sin 30° cos 30°) / (a⁴ cos⁴ 30°)

sec² θ d²θ/dt² + 2 sec² θ tan θ dθ/dt = -bω (aω cos² 30° − 2bω sin 30°) / (a² cos³ 30°)

d²θ/dt² + 2 tan θ dθ/dt = -bω² (a cos² 30° − b) / (a² cos 30°)

Plugging in values:

d²θ/dt² + 2 tan 30° dθ/dt = -(200) (6)² (350 cos² 30° − 200) / (350² cos 30°)

d²θ/dt² + 2 tan 30° dθ/dt = -7200 (262.5 − 200) / (350² cos 30°)

d²θ/dt² + 2 tan 30° (1.71) = -4.24

d²θ/dt² = -6.22 rad/s²

A steel rod, which is free to move, has a length of 200 mm and a diameter of 20 mm at a temperature of 15oC. If the rod is heate
kherson [118]

Explanation:

thermal expansion ∝L = (δL/δT)÷L ----(1)

δL = L∝L + δT ----(2)

we have δL = 12.5x10⁻⁶

length l = 200mm

δT = 115°c - 15°c = 100°c

putting these values into equation 1, we have

δL = 200*12.5X10⁻⁶x100

= 0.25 MM

L₂ = L + δ L

= 200 + 0.25

L₂ = 200.25mm

12.5X10⁻⁶ *115-15 * 20

= 0.025

20 +0.025

D₂ = 20.025

as this rod undergoes free expansion at 115°c, the stress on this rod would be = 0

500 flights land each day at San Jose’s airport. Assume that each flight has a 5% chance of being late, independently of whether
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

a.0.0199

b.0.1765

c.0.0785

d.0.1268

e.Yes

Explanation:

It is given that   X follows a  Binomial distribution with (n= 500, p = 0.05)

The  probabilities  are computed using the EXCEL .

a) The required probability here is:

P(X less of equal to  15)

= binom.dist(15,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.0199

Therefore the probability is 0.0199 .

b) The required probability here is:

P(X greater or equal to 30) = 1 - P(X less or equal to  29)  

=1 - binom.dist(29,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.1765

Therefore the probability is 0.1765

c) P(X = 26 )

= binom.dist(26,500,0.05,FALSE)  

=0.0785

Therefore the probability is 0.0785

d) The required probability here is computed as:

P(10 less or equal to X less or equal to 20 ) = P(X less or equal to 19) - P(X less or equal to 10)

= binom.dist(19,500,0.05,TRUE) - binom.dist(10,500,0.05,TRUE)

=0.1268

Therefore the probability 0.1268

e) Yes . Therefore the probability because that is the assumption used to apply binomial distribution .

14. The maximum amount a homeowner should spend on housing is
Simora [160]

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

Although there are sources that says 30% of gross income can be spent on housing, the most reliable amount that can be spent (according to other sources) is 28%.

Take for instance, you earn $5000 monthly, the maximum that you can spend on housing is:

Max = 28\% * \$5000

Using a calculator, we have:

Max = \$1400

<em>The maximum that can be spent on a monthly gross income of $5000 is $1400</em>
