Answer:

2.0%

Explanation:

Percentage of aggregate = 94%

Specific gravity = 2.65

Specific gravity of asphalt = 1.9

Density of mix = 147pcf = 147lb/ft³

Total weight of mix: (volume = 1ft³)

= (147lb/ft³)(1ft³)

= 147lb

Percentage weight of asphalt in<u> mix:</u>

100% - 94%

= 6%

Weight of asphalt binders

= 6% x 147lb

= 8.82lb

Weight of aggregate in mix:

= 94% x 147

= 138.18lb

Specific weight of asphalt binder:

(Gab)(Yw)

Yw = specific Weight of water

= 62.4lb

Gab = specific gravity of asphalt binder

= 1.0

(62.4lb)(1.0)

= 62.4 lb/ft³

Volume of asphalt in binder:

8.82/62.4

= 0.14ft³

Specific weight of binder in mix:

2.65 x 62.4lb/ft³

= 165.36 lb/ft³

Volume of aggregate:

= 138.18/165.36

= 0.84ft³

Volume of void in the mix:

1ft³ - 0.84ft³ - 0.14ft³

= 0.02ft³

<u>The percentage of void in total mix:</u>

VTM = (0.02ft³/1ft³)100

= 2.0%

Two standard spur gears have a diametrical pitch of 10, a center distance 3.5 inches and a velocity ratio of 2.5. How many teeth
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:50 , 20

Explanation:

Given

Diametrical Pitch\left ( P_D\right )=\frac{T}{D}

where T= no of teeths

D=diameter

module(m) of gears must be same

m=\frac{D}{T}=\frac{1}{P_D}=0.1

Let T_1 & T_2be the gears on two gears

Therefore Center distance is given by

m\frac{\left ( T_1+T_2\right )}{2}=3.5

thus

0.1\frac{\left ( T_1+T_2\right )}{2}=3.5

T_1+T_2=70----1

and Velocity ratio is given by

VR=\frac{No\ of\ teeths\ on\ Driver\ gear}{No.\ of\ teeths\ on\ Driven\ gear}

2.5=\frac{T_1}{T_2}----2

From 1 & 2 we get

T_1=50, T_2=20

UNO [17]

Answer:

15300 N

Explanation:

\rho_i = Density of air at inlet

\dfrac{m}{t} = Mass flow rate = 60 kg/s

v_i = Inlet velocity = 225 m/s

\rho_o = Density of gas at outlet = 0.25\ \text{kg/m}^3

A_i = Inlet area

A_o = Outlet area = 0.5\ \text{m}^2

Since mass flow rate is the same in the inlet and outlet we have

\rho_iv_iA_i=\rho_ov_oA_o\\\Rightarrow v_o=\dfrac{\dfrac{m}{t}}{\rho_oA_o}\\\Rightarrow v_o=\dfrac{60}{0.25\times 0.5}\\\Rightarrow v_o=480\ \text{m/s}

Thrust is given by

F=\dfrac{m}{t}(v_o-v_i)\\\Rightarrow F=60\times (480-225)\\\Rightarrow F=15300\ \text{N}

The thrust generated is 15300 N.
