Answer:

it is to warn you about something like a dead end, or maybe where you should slow down because there might be people crossing ahead.

Explanation:

look at the signs i provided, all of them warn you about something.

Ex: railroad tracks, there might be a train passing, a winding road, so you don't go off road and crash, etc.

A civil engineer is asked to design a curved section of roadway that meets the following conditions: With ice on the road, when

lianna [129]

Answer:

1. $3.4^{o}$

2. 163.3 m

Explanation:

Static friction between road and rubber, μs =0.06

The maximum speed of the car, v = 50 km/h

= (50)(1000/3600) m/s

= 13.89 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity, $g = 9.81 m/s^{2}$

The frictional force, f = μsN ...... (1)

The component mg cosθ which balance the normal reaction N

The component mg sinθ acts in an opposite direction to the frictional force f.

ΣF = mg sinθ-f = 0 ...... (2)

Substitute the equation (1) in equation (2), we get

ΣF = mgsinθ-μsN = 0

mgsinθ-μsmgcosθ =0

μs = sinθ/cosθ

tanθ = μs

θ = tan-1( μs) = tan-1(0.06) = $3.4^{o}$

(b)The vertical component of the force is

N cosθ = fsinθ+mg

N cosθ = μsNsinθ+mg

N[cosθ- μs sinθ] = mg ...... (3)

The horizontal component of the force along the motion of the car is

Nsinθ+fcosθ = ma (Centripetal acceleration, $a = \frac {v^{2}}{r}$

Nsinθ+fcosθ = $m(\frac {v^{2}}{r})$

Nsinθ+μsNcosθ = $m(\frac {v^{2}}{r})$

N[sinθ+μs cosθ] = $m(\frac {v^{2}}{r})$ ...... (4)

Dividing the equation (4) with equation (3),

[sinθ+μscosθ]/[cosθ- μs sinθ] = $\frac {v^{2}}{rg}$

cosθ[sinθ/cosθ+μs]/cosθ[1- μs sinθ/cosθ] = $\frac {v^{2}}{rg}$

[tanθ+μs]/[1-μs tanθ] = $\frac {v^{2}}{rg}$

From part (1), tanθ = μs

Then the above equation becomes

$\frac {(\mu_s+\mu_s]}{[1-\mu_s^{2}]} =\frac {v^{2}}{rg}$

$\frac {(2\mu_s]}{[1-\mu_s^{2}]} =\frac {v^{2}}{rg}$

Therefore, the minimum radius of the curvature of the curve is

$r = \frac {v^{2}}{{2 \mu_s/[1-\mu_s^{2}]}g}$

= $\frac {v^{2}[1-\mu_s^{2}]}{2\mu_s g}$

= $\frac {(13.89 m/s)^{2}[1-(0.06)^{2}]}{(2)(0.06)(9.81)}$

= 163.3 m

Define Plastic vs elastic deformation.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Plastic deformation, irreversible or permanent. Deformation mode in which the material does not return to its original shape after removing the applied load. This happens because, in plastic deformation, the material undergoes irreversible thermodynamic changes by acquiring greater elastic potential energy.

Elastic deformation, reversible or non-permanent. the body regains its original shape by removing the force that causes the deformation. In this type of deformation, the solid, by varying its tension state and increasing its internal energy in the form of elastic potential energy, only goes through reversible thermodynamic changes.

What is the perimeter of 14-7 and 3-4

Goshia [24]

Answer:

If you mean two sides are 7 and two sides are 14 then you'd have 42

and for the second you'd have 14

Explanation:

7 + 7 = 14, 14 + 14 = 28, 14 + 28 = 42

3 + 3 = 6, 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 6 = 14
