A fill covering a wide area is to be placed at the surface of this profile. The fill has a total unit weight of 20 kN/m^3 and is

3 m thick. Assume that the data for the sample at 7.0 m are representative of the entire clay profile. Also assume that the clay is heavily over consolidated and that the danse sands at the surface of the profile are so stiff that they do not contribute to the settlement. Find the settlement of the surface due to compression of the clay layer

m_a_m_a [10]
In metallurgy, non-ferrous metals are metals or alloys that do not contain iron in appreciable amounts. Generally more costly than ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals are used because of desirable properties such as low weight, higher conductivity, non-magnetic property or resistance to corrosion

Car B is traveling a distance dd ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B suddenly applies the br
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the kinematics equation v = v_o + a_ct to determine the velocity of car B.

where;

v_o = initial velocity

a_c = constant deceleration

Assuming the constant deceleration is = -12 ft/s^2

Also, the kinematic equation that relates to the distance with the time is:

S = d + v_ot + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Then:

v_B = 60-12t

The distance traveled by car B in the given time (t) is expressed as:

S_B = d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2)

For car A, the needed time (t) to come to rest is:

v_A = 60 - 18(t-0.75)

Also, the distance traveled by car A in the given time (t) is expressed as:

S_A = 60  * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2

Relating both velocities:

v_B = v_A

60-12t = 60 - 18(t-0.75)

60-12t =73.5 - 18t

60- 73.5 = - 18t+ 12t

-13.5 =-6t

t = 2.25 s

At t = 2.25s, the required minimum distance can be estimated by equating both distances traveled by both cars

i.e.

S_B = S_A

d + 60 t - \dfrac{1}{2}(12t^2) = 60  * 0.75 +60(t-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*(t-0.750)^2

d + 60 (2.25) - \dfrac{1}{2}(12*(2.25)^2) = 60  * 0.75 +60((2.25)-0.75) -\dfrac{1}{2}*18*((2.25)-0.750)^2

d + 104.625 = 114.75

d = 114.75 - 104.625

d = 10.125 ft

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Rubber block is not shown. I have attached an image of it.

Answer:

A) ε_x = 0.0075

B) ε_y = 0.00375

C) γ_xy = 0.0122 rad

Explanation:

We are given;

δ = 0.03 in

L = 4 in

ν_r = 0.5

θ = 89.3° = 89.3π/180 rad

Let's calculate ε_x in the direction of axis x

Thus, ε_x = δ/L = 0.03/4 = 0.0075

Let's calculate ε_y in the direction of axis y;

ε_y = v•ε_x = 0.5 x 0.0075 = 0.00375

Now, shear strain is angle between π/2 rad surfaces at that point.

Thus,

γ_xy =  π/2 - θ = π/2 - 89.3π/180

γ_xy = π(0.003889) = 0.0122 rad

What are the conditions for sheet generator to build up its voltage?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

There are six conditions

1. Poles should contain some residual flux.

2. Field and armature winding must be correctly connected so that initial mmm adds residual flux.

3. Resistance of field winding must be less than critical resistance.

4. Speed of prime mover of generator must be above critical speed.

5. Generator must be on load.

6. Brushes must have proper contact with commutators.
