Assume that 50,000 yd3 of the soil from a local borrow pit in Rhode Island, with a water content of 13% and dry unit weight of 8

7 pcf, is to be delivered to a construction site for some repairs of highway in I-95. By the time it reaches the site, the water content is 9%. It will be compacted to a minimum of 90% of the modified Proctor maximum dry density. Determine the total amount of water (in pounds), that must be added to the soil to increase the moisture content to the optimum level. Assume a Gs

Answer:3000 yd3

Explanation:

so i got the 50000 divided it by 100 times that by 13 and got 4500 yd3

so now the soil is at 9 so i need to get the 4 percent back up so i yet again got 50000 yd3 and divided by 100 and times it by 9 to get 1500 yd3 to then minus my 1500 and 4500 yd3 and got 3000 yd3 i hope it is right.

Which of these fuel injection systems operates with fuel injectors located only in the intake manifold near each intake
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

C. Multipoint fuel injection

Explanation:

A fuel injection system can be defined as a system found in the engine of most automobile cars, used for the supply of a precise amount of fuel or fuel-air mixture to the cylinders in an internal combustion engine through the use of an injector.

There are different types of fuel injection system and these includes;

I. Central-point injection.

II. Throttle (single point) body injection.

III. Gasoline direct injection.

IV. Multipoint (port) fuel injection.

Multipoint fuel injection is a type of fuel injection system that operates with fuel injectors located only in the intake manifold near each intake valve and sprays fuel toward the valve. As a result, it allows for the supply of a precise amount of fuel and as such creating a better air-fuel ratio for automobile cars.

Steep safety ramps are built beside mountain highways to enable vehicles with defective brakes to stop safely. A truck enters a
Virty [35]

Answer:

a) The additional time required for the truck to stop is <u>8.5 seconds</u>

b) The additional distance traveled by the truck is <u>230.05 ft</u>

Explanation:

Since the acceleration is constant, the average speed is:

(final speed - initial speed) / 2 = 0.75 v0

Since travelling at this speed for 8.5 seconds causes the vehicle to travel 690 ft, we can solve for v0:

0.75v0 * 8.5 = 690

v0 = 108.24 ft/s

The speed after 8.5 seconds is: 108.24 / 2 = 54.12 ft/s

We can now use the following equation to solve for acceleration:

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*s

54.12^2 - 108.24^2 = 2*a*690

a = -6.367 m/s^2

Additional time taken to decelerate: 54.12/6.367 = 8.5 seconds

Total distance traveled:

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*s

0 - 108.24^2 = 2 * (-6.367) * s

solving for s we get total distance traveled = 920.05 ft

Additional Distance Traveled: 920.05 - 690 = 230.05 ft

If a worker currently makes $425.00 per week, what Is the gross amount they’ll earn if they work every week of the year
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

we know that

A worker currently makes \$425.00 per week

remember that

1\ year=52\ weeks

so

by proportion find the amount that the worker will earn in one year

\frac{425}{1} \frac{\$}{week} =\frac{x}{52} \frac{\$}{weeks} \\ \\x=52*425 \\ \\x=\$22,100

therefore

the answer is

\$22,100
