A standard penetration test has been conducted on a coarse sand at a depth of 16 ft below the ground surface. The blow counts ob

scoray [572]

Solution :

Given :

The number of blows is given as :

0 - 6 inch = 4 blows

6 - 12 inch = 6 blows

12 - 18 inch = 6 blows

The vertical effective stress $=1500 \ lb/ft^2$

$= 71.82 \ kN/m^2$

$\sim 72 \ kN/m^2$

Now,

$N_1=N_0 \left(\frac{350}{\bar{\sigma}+70} \right)$

$N_1 =$ corrected N - value of overburden

$\bar{\sigma}=$ effective stress at level of test

0 - 6 inch, $N_1=4 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 9.86

6 - 12 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 14.8

12 - 18 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 14.8

$N_{avg}=\frac{9.86+14.8+14.8}{3}$

= 13.14

= 13

compressors, the gas is often cooled while being compressed to reduce the power consumed by the compressor. explain how cooling

ASHA 777 [7]

The amount of work done by steady flow devices varies with the particular gas volume. The kinetic energy of gas particles decreases during cooling.

When the gas is subjected to intermediate cooling during compression, the gas specific volume is reduced, which lowers the compressor's power consumption. Compression is less adiabatic and more isothermal because the compressed gas must be cooled between stages since compression produces heat. The system's thermodynamic cycle's cold sink temperature is lowered by cooling the compressor coils. By increasing the temperature difference between the heat source and the cold sink, this improves efficiency.

From an aerial photograph, one observes that on a level section of a (multilane) highway, 25% of the vehicles are trucks, 75% ar

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(a) Flow rate of vehicles = No of vehicles per mile * Speed

=No of cars per mile * Speed +No of trucks per mile * Speed

= 0.75*50*60 + 0.25*50*40

=2750 vehicles / hour

(b) Let Density of vehicles on grade = x

Density on flat * Speed =Density on grade * Speed

So,( 0.75*50) * 60 + (0.25*50) * 40 = (0.75* x) * 55 + (0.25* x) * 25

So, x= 57.89

So, Density is around 58 Vehicles per Mile.

(c) Percentage of truck by aerial photo = 25%

(d)Percentage of truck bystationary observer on the grade= 25*30/60 * 25/55 =22.73 %
