The soil borrow material to be used to construct a highway embankment has a mass unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf and a water content

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Given information

Bulk unit weight of 107.0 lb/cf

Water content of 7.3%,=0.073

Specific gravity of the soil solids is 2.62

Specifications

Dry unit weight is 113 lb/cf

Water content is 6%.

Volume of embankment is 440,000-cy

Borrow material

$Dry_{unit,weight}=\frac {bulk_{unit,weight}}{1+water_{content}}=\frac {107}{1+0.073}= 99.72041 lb/cf$

Embankment

Considering that the volume of embankment is inversely proportional to the dry unit weight

$\frac {V_{embankment}}{V_{borrow}}=\frac {Dry_{borrow}}{Dry_{embankment}}$

Therefore, $V_{borrow}=V_{embankment} *\frac {Dry_{embarkement}}{Dry_{borrow}}$

$V_{borrow}=440,000-cy*\frac {113 lb/cf }{99.72041 lb/cf }= 498594-cy$

Therefore, volume of borrow material is 498594-cy

(b)

The weight of water in embankment is found by multiplying the moisture content and dry unit weight.

Assuming that all the specifications are achieved, weight of water in embankment=0.06*113=6.78 lb/cf

Since $1 yd^{3}= 27 ft^{3}$

The embankment requires water of 6.78*27*440000= 80546400 lb

Borrow materials’ water will also be 0.073*99.72041=7.27959 lb/cf

Borrow material requires water of 7.27959*27*498594=97998120 lb

Extra water between borrow material and embankment=97998120 lb-80546400 lb=17451720 lb

$Unit_{weight}=\frac {17451720}{498594}=35.00186 lb$

1 gallon is approximately $8.35 yd^{3}$ hence

$\frac {35.00186 lb/yd^{3}}{8.35}=4.19184 gallons/yd^{3}$

That's approximately 4.2 gallons

If 200 amperes flow from the positive terminal of a battery and operate the starter motor, how many amperes will flow back to th

garri49 [273]

Answer:

$200$ Amperes WB =<em> </em> $200J$

Explanation:

$200$ Amperes will flow back to the negative terminal because both the positive terminal and negative terminal contain the equivalent amount of current that will flow and it works in the starter motor.

The lattice constant of a simple cubic primitive cell is 5.28 Å. Determine the distancebetween the nearest parallel ( a ) (100),

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

a)5.28 Å , b)3.73 Å , c)3.048 Å

Explanation:

the atoms are situated only at the corners of cube.Each and every atom in simple cubic primitive at the corner is shared with 8 adjacent unit cells.

Therefore, a particular unit cell consist only 1/8th part of an atom.

The lattice constant of a simple cubic primitive cell is 5.28 Å

We know formula of distance,

d = $\frac{a}{\sqrt{h^{2}+k^{2}+l^{2}}}$

a)(100)

a=5.28 Å

Distance = $\frac{5.28 Å}{\sqrt{1^{2}+0^{2}+0^{2}}}$ =5.28 Å

b)(110)

Distance = $\frac{5.28}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+0^{2}}}$ = 3.73 Å

c)(111)

Distance= $\frac{5.28}{\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}+1^{2}}}$ = 3.048 Å

Create a separate function file fieldtovar.m that receives a single structure as an input and assigns each of the field values t

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Explanation gives the answer

Explanation:

% Using MATLAB,

% Matlab file : fieldtovar.m

function varargout = fieldtovar(S)

% function that accepts single structure as input, assigning each

% of the field values to user-defined variables

fields = fieldnames(S); % get the field names of the input structure

% check if number of user-defined variables and number of fields in

% structure are equal

if nargout == length(fields)

% if equal assign each value of structure to user-defined varable

for i=1:nargout

varargout{i} = getfield(S,fields{i});

end

else

% if not equal display an error message

error('The number of output variables does not equal the number of fields');

end

%This brings an end to the program
