Answer:

a. 0.9263

b. 0.4872

c. 13.83kN/m^{3}

Explanation:

moisture content (ω) = 0.32

void ratio (e) = 0.95

specific gravity (G_{s}) = 2.75

the degree of satruation (S) = \frac{w . G_{s} }{e} =0.32×2.75/0.95 = 0.9263

b. porosity (n) = \frac{e}{e + 1} = 0.95/(0.95 + 1)= 0.4872

c. dry unit weight (γ_{d}) = \frac{G_{s} . V_{w} }{1 + e}

taking specific unit weight of water (V_{w})= 9.81kN/m^{3}

γ_{d} = 2.75 × 1000/(1 + 0.95) = 13.83kN/m^{3}

nordsb [41]

Answer:

In summer the power available is 357.55 kW and in winter the power available is 59.59 kW

Explanation:

Given data:

height = 1500 ft = 457.2 m

30 gallon = 0.114 m³

5 gallon = 0.019 m³

In summer the power available is:

P=\mu \rho ghQ

Where

μ = efficiency = 0.7

ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³

g = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Q = 0.114 m³

Replacing:

P=0.7*1000*9.8*457.2*0.114=3.575x10^{5} W=357.55kW

In winter the power available is

P=0.7*1000*9.8*457.2*0.019=59591.45W=59.59kW

svetlana [45]

Full Question

Write a static method called quadrant that takes as parameters a pair of real numbers representing an (x, y) point and that returns the quadrant number for that point.

Recall that quadrants are numbered as integers from 1 to 4 with the upper-right quadrant numbered 1 and the subsequent quadrants numbered in a counter-clockwise fashion. Notice that the quadrant is determined by whether the x and y coordinates are positive or negative numbers. If a point falls on the x-axis or the y-axis, then the method should return 0.

Answer

public int quadrant(double x, double y) // Line 1

{

if(x > 0 && y > 0){ //Line 2

return 1;

}

if(x < 0 && y > 0){ // Line 3

return 2;

}

if(x < 0 && y < 0) {// Line 4

return 3;

}

if(x > 0 && y < 0) {// Line 5

return 4;

}

return 0;

}

Explanation:

Line 1 defines the static method.

The method is named quadrant and its of type integer.

Along with the method definition, two variables x and y of type double are also declared

Line 2 checks if x and y are greater than 0.

If yes then the program returns 1

Line 3 checks if x is less than 0 and y is greater than 0

If yes then the program returns 2

Line 4 checks if x and y are less than 0

If yes then the program returns 3

Line 5 checks is x is greater than 0 and y is less than 0

If yes then the program returns 4

Let <em>f(z)</em> = (4<em>z </em>² + 2<em>z</em>) / (2<em>z </em>² - 3<em>z</em> + 1).

First, carry out the division:

<em>f(z)</em> = 2 + (8<em>z</em> - 2) / (2<em>z </em>² - 3<em>z</em> + 1)

Observe that

2<em>z </em>² - 3<em>z</em> + 1 = (2<em>z</em> - 1) (<em>z</em> - 1)

so you can separate the rational part of <em>f(z)</em> into partial fractions. We have

(8<em>z</em> - 2) / (2<em>z </em>² - 3<em>z</em> + 1) = <em>a</em> / (2<em>z</em> - 1) + <em>b</em> / (<em>z</em> - 1)

8<em>z</em> - 2 = <em>a</em> (<em>z</em> - 1) + <em>b</em> (2<em>z</em> - 1)

8<em>z</em> - 2 = (<em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em>) <em>z</em> - (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)

so that <em>a</em> + 2<em>b</em> = 8 and <em>a</em> + <em>b</em> = 2, yielding <em>a</em> = -4 and <em>b</em> = 6.

So we have

<em>f(z)</em> = 2 - 4 / (2<em>z</em> - 1) + 6 / (<em>z</em> - 1)

or

<em>f(z)</em> = 2 - (2/<em>z</em>) (1 / (1 - 1/(2<em>z</em>))) + (6/<em>z</em>) (1 / (1 - 1/<em>z</em>))

Recall that for |<em>z</em>| < 1, we have

\displaystyle\frac1{1-z}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty z^n

Replace <em>z</em> with 1/<em>z</em> to get

\displaystyle\frac1{1-\frac1z}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty z^{-n}

so that by substitution, we can write

\displaystyle f(z) = 2 - \frac2z \sum_{n=0}^\infty (2z)^{-n} + \frac6z \sum_{n=0}^\infty z^{-n}

Now condense <em>f(z)</em> into one series:

\displaystyle f(z) = 2 - \sum_{n=0}^\infty 2^{-n+1} z^{-(n+1)} + 6 \sum_{n=0}^\infty z^{-n-1}

\displaystyle f(z) = 2 - \sum_{n=0}^\infty \left(6+2^{-n+1}\right) z^{-(n+1)}

\displaystyle f(z) = 2 - \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(6+2^{-(n-1)+1}\right) z^{-n}

\displaystyle f(z) = 2 - \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(6+2^{2-n}\right) z^{-n}

So, the inverse <em>Z</em> transform of <em>f(z)</em> is \boxed{6+2^{2-n}}.

The mechanical properties of a metal may be improved by incorporating fine particles of its oxide. Given that the moduli of elas
Lilit [14]

Answer:

A) 209.12 GPa

B) 105.41 GPa

Explanation:

We are given;

Modulus of elasticity of the metal; E_m = 67 GPa

Modulus of elasticity of the oxide; E_f = 390 GPa

Composition of oxide particles; V_f = 44% = 0.44

A) Formula for upper bound modulus of elasticity is given as;

E = E_m(1 - V_f) + (E_f × V_f)

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

E = (67(1 - 0.44)) + (390 × 0.44)

E = 209.12 GPa

B) Formula for upper bound modulus of elasticity is given as;

E = 1/[(V_f/E_f) + (1 - V_f)/E_m]

Plugging in the relevant values;

E = 1/((0.44/390) + ((1 - 0.44)/67))

E = 105.41 GPa
