Answer:

2.68

Explanation:

Percentage by Mass of each Aggregate :

Pa = 65% ; Pb = 35%;

Bulk Specific gravity of each aggregate :

Ga = 2.45 ; Gb = 3.25

Gsb = (Pa + Pb) / (Pa/Ga + Pb/Gb)

Gsb = (65 + 35) / (65/2.45 + 35/3.25)

Gsb = (65 + 35) / 37.299843

Gsb = 100 / 37.299843

Gsb = 2.68

To provide some perspective on the dimensions of atomic defects, consider a metal specimen that has a dislocation density of 105
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

62.14\ \text{miles}

6213727.37\ \text{miles}

Explanation:

The distance of the chain would be the product of the dislocation density and the volume of the metal.

Dislocation density = 10^5\ \text{mm}^{-2}

Volume of the metal = 1000\ \text{mm}^3

10^5\times 1000=10^8\ \text{mm}\\ =10^5\ \text{m}

1\ \text{mile}=1609.34\ \text{m}

\dfrac{10^5}{1609.34}=62.14\ \text{miles}

The chain would extend 62.14\ \text{miles}

Dislocation density = 10^{10}\ \text{mm}^{-2}

Volume of the metal = 1000\ \text{mm}^3

10^{10}\times 1000=10^{13}\ \text{mm}\\ =10^{10}\ \text{m}

\dfrac{10^{10}}{1609.34}=6213727.37\ \text{miles}

The chain would extend 6213727.37\ \text{miles}

At an impaired driver checkpoint, the time required to conduct the impairment test varies (according to an exponential distribut
professor190 [17]

Answer:

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average time required = 60 seconds

Therefore,

The maximum capacity that can be accommodated on the system, μ = 60 veh/hr

Average Arrival rate, λ = 30 vehicles per hour

Now,

The average time spent by the vehicle is given as

⇒ \frac{1}{\mu(1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu})}

thus,

on substituting the respective values, we get

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(1-\frac{30}{60})}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(1-0.5)}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(0.5)}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{30} hr/veh

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{30}\times60 min/veh

[ 1 hour = 60 minutes]

thus,

Average time spent by the vehicle = 2 min/veh

Hence,

Option (d) 2 min/veh

A bridge to be fabricated of steel girders is designed to be 500 m long and 12 m wide at ambient temperature (assumed 20°C). Exp
Volgvan

Answer:

a) 22.5number

b) 22.22 m length

Explanation:

Given data:

Bridge length = 500 m

width of bridge = 12 m

Maximum temperature = 40 degree C

minimum temperature  = - 35 degree C

Maximum expansion can be determined as

\Delta L = L \alpha (T_{max} - T_{min})

where , \alpha is expansion coefficient = 12\times 10^{-6} degree C

SO, \Delta L = 500\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times ( 40 - (-35))

\Delta L = 0.45 m = 450 mm

number of minimum expansion joints is calculated as

n = \frac{450}{20} = 22.5

b) length of each bridge

Length = \frac{500}{22.5} = 22.22 m

x = 0.451732 and error = 0.000187 at iteration = 245.000000

The solution x = 0.451732

>>

Explanation:

The two solutions are x =0.451732 and 3.305651 within the range 0 < x< 5.

The initial guess x = 1.75 fails to determine the solution as it's not in the range. So the solution turns to unstable with initial guess x = 1.75.
