The design speed of a multilane highway is 60 mi/hr. What is the minimum stopping sight distance that should be provided on the

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Part a: When the road is level, the minimum stopping sight distance is 563.36 ft.

Part b: When the road has a maximum grade of 4%, the minimum stopping sight distance is 528.19 ft.

Explanation:

Part a

When Road is Level

The stopping sight distance is given as

$SSD=1.47 ut +\frac{u^2}{30 (\frac{a}{g} \pm G)}$

Here

SSD is the stopping sight distance which is to be calculated.
u is the speed which is given as 60 mi/hr
t is the perception-reaction time given as 2.5 sec.
a/g is the ratio of deceleration of the body w.r.t gravitational acceleration, it is estimated as 0.35.
G is the grade of the road, which is this case is 0 as the road is level

Substituting values

$SSD=1.47 ut +\frac{u^2}{30 (\frac{a}{g} \pm G)}\\SSD=1.47 \times 60 \times 2.5 +\frac{60^2}{30 \times (0.35-0)}\\SSD=220.5 +342.86 ft\\SSD=563.36 ft$

So the minimum stopping sight distance is 563.36 ft.

Part b

When Road has a maximum grade of 4%

The stopping sight distance is given as

$SSD=1.47 ut +\frac{u^2}{30 (\frac{a}{g} \pm G)}$

Here

SSD is the stopping sight distance which is to be calculated.
u is the speed which is given as 60 mi/hr
t is the perception-reaction time given as 2.5 sec.
a/g is the ratio of deceleration of the body w.r.t gravitational acceleration, it is estimated as 0.35.
G is the grade of the road, which is given as 4% now this can be either downgrade or upgrade

For upgrade of 4%, Substituting values

$SSD=1.47 ut +\frac{u^2}{30 (\frac{a}{g} \pm G)}\\SSD=1.47 \times 60 \times 2.5 +\frac{60^2}{30 \times (0.35+0.04)}\\SSD=220.5 +307.69 ft\\SSD=528.19 ft$

So the minimum stopping sight distance for a road with 4% upgrade is 528.19 ft.

For downgrade of 4%, Substituting values

$SSD=1.47 ut +\frac{u^2}{30 (\frac{a}{g} \pm G)}\\SSD=1.47 \times 60 \times 2.5 +\frac{60^2}{30 \times (0.35-0.04)}\\SSD=220.5 +387.09 ft\\SSD=607.59ft$

So the minimum stopping sight distance for a road with 4% downgrade is 607.59 ft.

As the minimum distance is required for the 4% grade road, so the solution is 528.19 ft.

As an object falls to the ground, its potential energy is being converted to kinetic energy.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

The statement is true

Explanation:

Energy Conversion

When an object starts to fall in free air, it speeds up as it falls. The force of gravity acting on the object causes energy to be transferred from its gravitational potential energy to its kinetic energy. We can safely say the height converts to speed and vice-versa. If no external forces act on the system, we can easily calculate heights and speeds by knowing the total mechanical energy (gravitational potential plus kinetic) is conserved.

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{The statement is true}}$

The tendon from the flexor hallucis longus muscle in the hindlimb of a turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) has a resilience of 0.93. If

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

8.37 Joules

Explanation:

The amount of energy that a substance, such as animal tissue or rubber can take and yet return to its original condition is known as resilience. When we stress such a substance and then let it restore to its previous state, we are referring to the substance to maintain its elastic area of the stress-strain curve.

From the given information:

the resilence is 0.93

The amount of work done during stretching of the tendon = 9.00 J

Thus,

the work done when relaxing = 0.93 × 9.00 J

= 8.37 Joules
