A pumping test was made in pervious gravels and sands extending to a depth of 50 ft. ,where a bed of clay was encountered. The n

ormal ground water level was at the ground surface. Observation wells were located at distances of 10 and 25 ft. from the pumping well. At a discharge of 761 ft3 per minute from the pumping well, a steady state was attained in about 24 hr. The draw-down at a distance of 10 ft. was 5.5 ft. and at 25 ft. was 1.21 ft. Compute the hydraulic conductivity in ft. /sec.

Nikolay [14]

Answer: Application.

Explanation:

The question on wether to contine the use of cadavers in the lab for test is being centered around its application. Cadaver which is same as a corpse or dead body is used in crash site during automobil test in lab, some of this cadavers are been disrespected with their applications in the automobile industries because many didn’t consent to be used in those experiments or test.

In a paragraph of 125 words, explain at least three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their
joja [24]

Answer:

Three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their projects are;

1) Prototyping

2) Simulation

3) Calculations

Explanation:

1) Prototyping is the process of experimental testing of samples of design, or model of a product with the possibility of the inclusion of control of parameters in order to determine the workability of a solution.

2) Simulation is the process of creating an imitation of a situation, operation or process which can be used to determine if a particular solution will be able to work as required in the simulated environment of a problem.

3) Calculations are used to find preliminary results of particular situations, their cause and effects based on scientific laws, theories and hypothesis such that the factor of the problem is equated with the available ideas to find the best possible solution.

Can a 1½ " conduit, with a total area of 2.04 square inches, be filled with wires that total 0.93 square inches if the maximum f
Papessa [141]

Answer:

it is not possible to place the wires in the condui

Explanation:

given data

total area = 2.04 square inches

wires total area = 0.93 square inches

maximum fill conduit =  40%

to find out

Can it is possible place wire in conduit conduit

solution

we know maximum fill is 40%

so here first we get total area of conduit that will be

total area of conduit = 40% × 2.04

total area of conduit = 0.816 square inches

but this area is less than required area of wire that is 0.93 square inches

so we can say it is not possible to place the wires in the conduit

Define the coefficient of determination and discuss the impact you would expect it to have on your engineering decision-making b
scoundrel [369]

Answer and Explanation:

The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.

In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.

A consolidation test was performed on a sample of fine-grained soil sample taken from a depth such that the vertical effective s
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The settlement that is expected is 1.043 meters.

Explanation:

Since the pre-consolidation stress of the layer is equal to the effective stress hence we conclude that the soil is normally consolidated soil

The settlement due to increase in the effective stress of a normally consolidated soil mass is given by the formula

\Delta H=\frac{H_oC_c}{1+e_o}log(\frac{\bar{\sigma_o}+\Delta \bar{\sigma }}{\bar{\sigma_o}})

where

'H' is the initial depth of the layer

C_c is the Compression index

e_o is the inital void ratio

\bar{\sigma_o} is the initial effective stress at the depth

\Delta \bar{\sigma_o} is the change in the effective stress at the given depth

Applying the given values we get

\Delta H=\frac{8\times 0.3}{1+0.87}log(\frac{154+28}{154})=1.04
