The proposed grading at a project site will consist of 25,100 m3 of cut and 23,300 m3 of fill and will be a balanced earthwork j

ob. The cut area has an average moisture content of 8.3%. The fill will be compacted to an average relative compaction of 93% based on a maximum dry unit weight of 18.3 kN/m3 and an optimum moisture content of 12.9% obtained from the modified Proctor test. Please round all the final answers in this problem to integers. The volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is _________

Answer:

the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

Explanation:

Given that;

volume of cut = 25,100 m³

Volume of dry soil fill = 23,300 m³

Weight of the soil will be;

⇒ 93% × 18.3 kN/m³ × 23,300 m³

= 0.93 × 426390 kN 3

= 396,542.7 kN  

Optimum moisture content = 12.9 %

Required amount of moisture = (12.9 - 8.3)% = 4.6 %

So,

Weight of water required = 4.6% × 396,542.7 = 18241 kN

Volume of water required = 18241 / 9.81 = 1859 m³

Volume of water required = 1859 kL

Therefore, the volume of water that will be required to bring these soils to the optimum moisture content is 1859 kL

A digital filter is given by the following difference equationy[n] = x[n] − x[n − 2] −1/4y[n − 2].(a) Find the transfer function
slega [8]

Answer:

y(z) = x(z) - x(z) {z}^{ - 2}  -  \frac{1}{4} y(z) {z}^{ - 2}  \\ y(z) + \frac{1}{4} y(z) {z}^{ - 2} = x(z) - x(z) {z}^{ - 2} \\ y(z) (1 + \frac{1}{4}{z}^{ - 2}) = x(z)(1 - {z}^{ - 2}) \\  h(z) = \frac{y(z)}{x(z)}  =  \frac{(1 + \frac{1}{4}{z}^{ - 2})}{(1 - {z}^{ - 2})}

The rest is straightforward...

Ldentiy three industries that often need the skills of mechanical engineers. Briefly explain the skills that mechanical engineer
const2013 [10]

Answer:

3 industries that often need the skills of mechanical engineers are:

  • Automotive industry
  • Construction industry
  • Aerospace industry

The key skills mechanical engineers bring to these industries are effective technical skills, the ability to work under pressure, problem-solving skills, creativity and teamwork.

Explanation:

Automotive industry: The skills mechanical engineers bring to automotive industry include designing new cars for development, conducting laboratory testing for performance safety, and troubleshooting design or manufacturing issues with recalled vehicles. Automotive engineers have:

  • good mathematical skills, for instance in calculating the stresses power trains and other parts have to withstand;  
  • understanding and application of principles of physics and chemistry to properly design engines, electrical systems and other car components;  
  • good computer skills, because 21st century engineers rely on computer-assisted design software;
  • knowledge of ergonomics, which is applied in the process of designing a car so that the driver and passengers have a comfortable and functional environment, is another skill mechanical; engineers need.

Construction industry: Mechanical engineers are responsible for designing, building, establishing, and maintaining all kinds of mechanical machinery, tools, and components in the construction industry.

Aerospace industry: Mechanical engineers in aerospace industry produce specifications for design, development, manufacture and installing of new or modified mechanical components or systems. They design more fuel-efficient aircraft that cut emissions and build the fleets of satellites that power modern GPS technology.

Q5) Write C++ program to find the summation of sines of the even values that can be divided by 7 between -170 and -137.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

In C++:

#include <iostream>

#include <cmath>

using namespace std;

int main(){

 double total = 0;

 for(int i = -170; i<=-130;i++){

     if(i%2 == 0 && i%7==0){

         double angle = i*3.14159/180;

         total+=sin(angle);      }  }

 cout<<"Total: "<<total;

 return 0; }

Explanation:

This initializes the total to 0

 double total = 0;

This iterates from -170 to - 130

 for(int i = -170; i<=-130;i++){

This checks if the current number is even and is divided by 7

     if(i%2 == 0 && i%7==0){

This converts the number from degrees to radians

         double angle = i*3.14159/180;

This adds the sine of the number

         total+=sin(angle);      }  }

This prints the calculated total

 cout<<"Total: "<<total;

The force of magnitude F acts along the edge of the triangular plate. Determine the moment of F about point O. Find the general
leonid [27]

Answer:

  M_o = 18.84 N*m in the clockwise direction.  

Explanation:

Given:

- Force F = 120 N

- base b = 610 mm

- height h = 330 mm

Find:

Moment M_o about origin and its direction:

Solution:

- The force has two components F_x and F_y along base b and height h, respectively:

                    F_x = F*cos(Q)

                    F_x = F*(h / sqrt (h^2 + b^2))

                    F_x = 120*(330 / sqrt (330^2 + 610^2))

                    F_x = 57.098 N

- We can skip F_y as it passes through the the origin, hence moment produced is zero.

- Moment about O is :

                     M_o = F_x * h

                     M_o = 57.098*.33

                    M_o = 18.84 N*m in the clockwise direction.
