Answer:

Both Technician A and B are correct

Explanation:

Methanol is used in internal combustion engines. However, the use of methanol in internal combustion engines has decreased lately even though it was thought to lead to cleaner emissions than gasoline. Methanol internal combustion engines produce formaldehyde which is also an environmental pollutant. Also, the cost of methanol is slightly higher than that of good quality gasoline.

MTBE replaced tetraethyllead as a gasoline additive because the former lead to the emission of particulate lead from automobile exhausts which is a serious environmental pollutant. The use of MTBE has declined over the years due to environmental concerns. It has been banned because it has been found to be a significant groundwater pollutant if gasoline containing MTBE is spilled or leaked at gas stations.

6.28 A six-lane freeway (three lanes in each direction) in rolling terrain has 10-ft lanes and obstructions 4 ft from the right
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Assume Base free flow speed (BFFS) = 70 mph

Lane width = 10 ft

Reduction in speed corresponding to lane width, fLW = 6.6 mph

Lateral Clearance = 4 ft

Reduction in speed corresponding to lateral clearance, fLC = 0.8 mph

Interchanges/Ramps = 9/ 6 miles = 1.5 /mile

Reduction in speed corresponding to Interchanges/ramps, fID = 5 mph

No. of lanes = 3

Reduction in speed corresponding to number of lanes, fN = 3 mph

Free Flow Speed (FFS) = BFFS – fLW – fLC – fN – fID = 70 – 6.6 – 0.8 – 3 – 5 = 54.6 mph

Peak Flow, V = 2000 veh/hr

Peak 15-min flow = 600 veh

Peak-hour factor = 2000/ (4*600) = 0.83

Trucks and Buses = 12 %

RVs = 6 %

Rolling Terrain

fHV = 1/ (1 + 0.12 (2.5-1) + 0.06 (2.0-1)) = 1/1.24 = 0.806

fP = 1.0

Peak Flow Rate, Vp = V / (PHV*n*fHV*fP) = 2000/ (0.83*3*0.806*1.0) = 996.54 ~ 997 veh/hr/ln

Vp < (3400 – 30 FFS)

S = FFS

S = 54.6 mph

Density = Vp/S = (997) / (54.6) = 18.26 veh/mi/ln

(a) Differentiate between heat treatment of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys (b) With your understanding of material's thermal pro
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

In ferrous metal iron present but on the other hand in the non ferrous material iron does not present.That is why there is a different heat treatment process for ferrous and nonferrous materials.

Ferrous materials contains iron is the main constitute.Like steel ,cast iron ,wrought iron .Steel and cast iron are  the alloy element of iron ans carbon.Wrought iron is the purest from of iron.

Heat treatment process for  ferrous materials :

1.Normalizing

2.Annealing

3.Quenching

4.Surface hardening

Heat treatment process for non ferrous materials :

Mostly annealing process is used for non ferrous materials.After annealing non ferrous will become soft.

When two metal plates are joined then they form a bimetallic structure.The bimetallic structure is used to find the relationship of thermal temperature and the mechanical displacement.

The use of bimetallic structure -In clock ,thermometers ,engines.
