Explanation:

1. increase This due to increase in the pore volume.

2.increase . This is due to the fact that more liquid phase will be present at the firing.

3. Increase. This increase is because of the fact that clay on cooling forms glass.Thus, gaining more strength as the liquid phase formed fills in pore volume.

4. Increase, Rate of corrosion depends upon the surface area exposed.Since, upon vitrification surface area would increase, therefore corrosion increases.

5. Increase , glass has higher thermal conductivity than the pores it fills.

A car is traveling at sea level at 78 mi/h on a 4% upgrade before the driver sees a fallen tree in the roadway 150 feet away. Th
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: V = 47.7 mi/hr

Explanation:

first we calculate elements of aero-dynamic resistance

Ka = p/2 * CD * A.f

p is the density of air(0.002378 slugs/ft^3) for zero altitude, CD is the drag coefficient(0.35) and A.f is the front region of the vehicle

so we substitute

Ka = 0.002378/2 * 0.35 * 18

Ka = 0.00749

Now we calculate the final speed of the vehicle (V2) using the relation;

S = (YbW/2gKa)In[ (UW + KaV1^2 + FriW ± Wsinθg) / (UW + KaV2^2 + FriW ± Wsinθg)

so

WE SUBSTITUTE

150 = (1.04 * 2700 / 2 * 32.2 * 0.0075) In [(0.8 * 2700 + 0.0075 *(78mil/hr * 5280ft/1min * 1hr/3600s)^2 + 0.017 * 2700 ± 2700 * 0.04) / (0.8 * 2700 + 0.0075 * V2^2 + 0.017 * 2700 ± 2700 * 0.04)]

150 = (2808/0.483) In [(2160 + 98.16 + 153.9) / ( 2160 + 0.0075V2^2 + 153.9)]

150 = 5813.66 In [ (2160 + 98.16 + 153.9) / ( 2160 + 0.0075V2^2 + 153.9)]

divide both sides by 5813.66

0.0258 = In [ (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)]

take the e^ of both side

e^0.0258 = (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)

1.0261 = (2412.06) / ( 0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9)]

(0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9) = 2412.06 / 1.0261

(0.0075V2^2 + 2313.9) = 2350.7

0.0075V2^2 = 2350.7 - 2313.9

0.0075V2^2 = 36.8

V2^2 = 36.8 / 0.0075

V2^2 = 4906.6666

V2 = √4906.6666

V2 = 70.0476 ft/s

converting to miles per hour

V2 = 70.0476 ft/s * 1 mil / 5280 ft * 3600s / 1hr

V = 47.7 mi/hr

You want to plate a steel part having a surface area of 160 with a 0.002--thick layer of lead. The atomic mass of lead is 207.19
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

<u><em>To answer this question we assumed that the area units and the thickness units are given in inches.</em></u>

The number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.    

Explanation:

To find the number of atoms of lead we need to find first the volume of the plate:

V = A*t

<u>Where</u>:

A: is the surface area = 160

t: is the thickness = 0.002

<u><em>Assuming that the units given above are in inches we proceed to calculate the volume: </em></u>

V = A*t = 160 in^{2}*0.002 in = 0.32 in^{3}*(\frac{2.54 cm}{1 in})^{3} = 5.24 cm^{3}    

Now, using the density we can find the mass:

m = d*V = 11.36 g/cm^{3}*5.24 cm^{3} = 59.5 g

Finally, with the Avogadros number (N_{A}) and with the atomic mass (A) we can find the number of atoms (N):

N = \frac{m*N_{A}}{A} = \frac{59.5 g*6.022 \cdot 10^{23} atoms/mol}{207.19 g/mol} = 1.73 \cdot 10^{23} atoms    

Hence, the number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.

I hope it helps you!

An equal-tangent sag vertical curve (with a negative initial and a positive final grade) is designed for 55 mi/h. The PVI is at
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.

Explanation:

Length of curve is given as

L=2(PVT-PVI)\\L=2(242+30-240+00)\\L=2(230)\\L=460 ft

G_2 is given as

G_2=\frac{E_{PVT}-E_{PVI}}{0.5L}\\G_2=\frac{127.5-122}{0.5*460}\\G_2=0.025=2.5 \%

The K value is given from the table 3.3 for 55 mi/hr is 115. So the value of A is given as

A=\frac{L}{K}\\A=\frac{460}{115}\\A=4

A is given as

-G_1=A-G_2\\-G_1=4.0-2.5\\-G_1=1.5\\G_1=-1.5\%

With initial grade, the elevation of PVC is

E_{PVC}=E_{PVI}+G_1(L/2)\\E_{PVC}=122+1.5%(460/2)\\E_{PVC}=125.45 ft\\

The station is given as

St_{PVC}=St_{PVI}-(L/2)\\St_{PVC}=24000-(230)\\St_{PVC}=237+70\\

Low point is given as

x=K \times |G_1|\\x=115 \times 1.5\\x=172.5 ft

The station of low point is given as

St_{low}=St_{PVC}-(x)\\St_{low}=23770+(172.5)\\St_{low}=239+42.5 ft\\

The elevation is given as

E_{low}=\frac{G_2-G_1}{2L} x^2+G_1x+E_{PVC}\\E_{low}=\frac{2.5-(-1.5)}{2*460} (1.72)^2+(-1.5)*(1.72)+125.45\\E_{low}=124.16 ft

So the lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
