Explanation:
The lab technician you recently hired tells you the following: Boss, an undisturbed sample of saturated clayey soil was brought to me from the Mission Valley site. I measured the mass of the sample to be 600 grams. I then measured the mass of the sample after placing it in the oven for 24 hrs. I found this mass to be 200 grams. Can you help me determine the water content?" Determine the water content.
Answer:
The water of the saturated clayed soil is 66.67 %.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of saturated clayed soil, [tex]M_s[/tex] = 600 g
mass of dry soil sample, [tex]M_d[/tex] = 200 g
mass of water content, [tex]M_w[/tex] = [tex]M_s[/tex] - [tex]M_d[/tex] = 600 g - 200 g = 400 g
The water content is determined as;
[tex]M_w(\%) = \frac{M_s - M_d}{M_s} *100\%\\\\M_w(\%) = \frac{600-200}{600} *100 \% \\\\M_w(\%) = 66.67 \%[/tex]
Therefore, the water of the saturated clayed soil is 66.67 %.
1. There are two categories (shapes) for the Virginia driver's license. The ________________________ shape license represents the driver who is under the age of 21, and the _____________________________ shaped license represents the driver who is over the age of 21.
Answer:
Vertical; horizontal.
Explanation:
The Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles started issuing sets of newly designed driver's licenses to drivers in 2009. Although, the cards that were issued to drivers prior to the introduction of the new cards remained valid until they were expired.
There are two categories (shapes) for the Virginia driver's license. The vertical shape license represents the driver who is under the age of 21, and the horizontal shaped license represents the driver who is over the age of 21.
Additionally, the Virginia's driver license (vertical in shape) issued to drivers who are under the age of 21 has a background image of a dogwood flower while the horizontal shaped license issued to drivers who are over the age of 21 has a background image of the state capitol.

Write 3 important things learned about oxyfuel cutting and welding system.
Answer:
see and make me brainlist
Explanation:
What is oxy fuel cutting used for?
Oxy-fuel cutting is used for the cutting of mild steel. Only metals whose oxides have a lower melting point than the base metal itself can be cut with this process. Otherwise as soon as the metal oxidises it terminates the oxidation by forming a protective crust.
Given a 250Ω strain gage with a gage factor of 1 which is mounted to a metal bar 0.6m long. The bar is stretched under a tension force and the resistance changes to 251.4 Ω. How much was the bar stretched? _ _mm (Answer in mm to 2 decimal places) What is the length of the bar after it is stretched?
Answer:
the bar was stretched by [tex]\mathbf{\Delta L = 3.36 \ mm}[/tex]
the length of the after it was stretched is [tex]\mathbf{L_{new} = 603.36 \ mm}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the information given:
The strain gauge resistance R = 250 Ω
The gauge factor = 1
The original length L = 0.6 m = 600 mm
After the bar is being stretched under tension force;
the new resistance [tex]R_{new} = 251.42[/tex]
The gauge factor [tex]G = \dfrac{\Delta R/R}{\Delta L /L }[/tex]
where;
[tex]\Delta R = R_{new} - R[/tex] and [tex]\Delta L = L_{new} - L[/tex]
ΔR = 251.4 - 250
ΔR = 1.4 Ω
[tex]\Delta L = L_{new} - L[/tex]
[tex]L_{new} = L + L (\dfrac{\Delta R/R}{G})[/tex]
[tex]L_{new} = 0.6 + 0.6 (\dfrac{\Delta 1.4/250}{1})[/tex]
[tex]L_{new} = 0.60336 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{L_{new} = 603.36 \ mm}[/tex]
Thus, the length of the after it was stretched is [tex]\mathbf{L_{new} = 603.36 \ mm}[/tex]
Thus, the bar was stretched by [tex]\Delta L = L_{new} - L[/tex]
[tex]\Delta L = (603.36 - 600) \ mm[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\Delta L = 3.36 \ mm}[/tex]

The extruder head in a fused- deposition modeling setup has a diameter of 1.25 mm (0.05 in) and produces layers that are 0.25mm (0.01 inn) thick. If the extruder head and polymer extrudate velocities are both 40mm/s, estimate the production time for the generation of a 38-mm (1.5 in., edge length) solid cube. Assume that there is a 15- second delay after deposition of each layer as the extruder head is moved over a wire brush for cleaning.
Answer:
The time taken will be "1 hour 51 min". The further explanation is given below.
Explanation:
The given values are:
Number of required layers:
= [tex]\frac{38}{0.25}[/tex]
= [tex]152 \ layers[/tex]
Diameter (d):
= 1.25 mm
Velocity (v):
= 40 mm/s
Now,
The area of one layer will be:
= [tex]38\times 38 \ mm^2[/tex]
= [tex]1444 \ mm^2[/tex]
The area covered every \second will be:
= [tex]d\times v[/tex]
= [tex]1.25\times 40[/tex]
= [tex]50 \ mm^2[/tex]
The time required to deposit one layer will be:
= [tex]\frac{1444}{50}[/tex]
= [tex]28.88 \ sec[/tex]
The time required for one layer will be:
= [tex]15 \ sec[/tex]
∴ Total times required for one layer will be:
= [tex]15+28.88[/tex]
= [tex]43.88 \ sec[/tex]
So,
Number of layers = 152
Therefore,
Total time will be:
= [tex]152\times 43.88[/tex]
= [tex]6669.76 \ sec[/tex]
= [tex]1 \ hour \ 51 \ min[/tex]
Given values are:
Number of layers required = [tex]\frac{38}{0.25}[/tex] = [tex]152 \ layers[/tex]Diameter (d) = [tex]1.75 \ mm[/tex]Velocity (v) = [tex]40 \ m/s[/tex]Now,
Area of one layer will be:
= [tex]38\times 38[/tex]
= [tex]1444 \ mm^2[/tex]
Area covered per second:
= [tex]d\times v[/tex]
= [tex]1.25\times 40[/tex]
= [tex]50 \ mm^2[/tex]
The time required to deposit 1 layer:= [tex]\frac{1444}{50}[/tex]
= [tex]28.88 \ sec[/tex]
The time required for one layer:= [tex]15 \ sec[/tex]
∴ Total time for 1 layer will be:
= [tex]15+28.88[/tex]
= [tex]43.88 \ sec[/tex]
hence,
The total time required:
= [tex]152\times 43.88[/tex]
= [tex]6669.76 \ sec[/tex]
= [tex]1 \ hour \ 51 \ minutes[/tex]
Thus the above response is right.

What is usually the strongest part of a unibody
A lake with constant volume 1.1 x 10^6 m^3 is fed by a stream with a non-conservative pollutant of 2.3 mg/L and flow rate 35 m^3 /s. A factory dumps 4.3 m^3 /s of waste with 100 mg/L of the same non-conservative pollutant into the lake. The pollutant has a first order decay coefficient K of 0.10/day. Assuming the lake is well mixed, find the steady-state concentration of pollutant in the lake.
Answer:
12.84 mg/L
Explanation:
We are given;
Volume of lake; V = 1.1 x 10^(6) m³
decay coefficient; K = 0.10/day = 0.1/(24 × 60 × 60) /s = 0.00000115741 /s
Factory rate: Q_f = 4.3 m³/s
Factory concentration: C_f = 100 mg/L
Stream rate: Q_s = 34 m³/s
Stream Concentration: C_s = 2.3 mg/L
Now, to find the steady state concentration of pollutant in the lake, we will use the formula;
(Q_s•C_s) + (Q_f•C_f) = (Q_f + Q_s)C_L + (KV•C_L)
Where C_L is the steady state concentration of pollutant in the lake.
Thus, making C_L the subject, we have;
C_L = [(Q_s•C_s) + (Q_f•C_f)]/(Q_f + Q_s + K•V)
Plugging in the relevant values gives;
C_L = ((34 × 2.3) + (4.3 × 100))/(4.3 + 34 + (0.00000115741 × 1.1 × 10^(6)))
C_L = 12.84 mg/L

How much would you spend on gasoline each year if you drove 10,000 miles over the year and your vehicle achieves 15 miles per gallon with gasoline prices at $4.00 a gallon? Now substitute your vehicle with a hybrid-electric automobile that achieves 60 miles per gallon. Calculate the yearly cost for fuel with this vehicle
Answer:
a. [tex]Total\ Cost = \$2667[/tex]
b. [tex]Total\ Cost = \$667[/tex]
Explanation:
(a)
Given
[tex]Distance = 10000\ miles[/tex]
[tex]Rate = 15\ miles/gallon[/tex]
[tex]Price = \$4.00/gallon[/tex]
Required
Determine the total amount spent in a year
First, we need to determine the number of gallons used in a year;
[tex]Total\ Gallons = Distance/Rate[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000miles /\frac{15miles}{gallon}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000miles * \frac{1\ gallon}{15\ miles}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000 * \frac{1\ gallon}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = \frac{10000\ gallons}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = \frac{10000}{15}\ gallons[/tex]
Next, is to determine the total cost:
[tex]Total\ Cost = Total\ Gallons * Price[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000}{15}\ gallon * \frac{\$4}{gallon}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000}{15} * \$4[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000 * \$4}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{\$40000}{15}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = $2666.66666667[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \$2667[/tex] (approximated)
(b)
Given
[tex]Rate = 60\ miles/gallon[/tex]
Required
Determine the total amount spent in a year
First, we need to determine the number of gallons used in a year;
[tex]Total\ Gallons = Distance/Rate[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000miles /\frac{60\ miles}{gallon}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000miles * \frac{1\ gallon}{60\ miles}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = 10000 * \frac{1\ gallon}{60}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = \frac{10000\ gallons}{60}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Gallons = \frac{10000}{60}\ gallons[/tex]
Next, is to determine the total cost:
[tex]Total\ Cost = Total\ Gallons * Price[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000}{60}\ gallon * \frac{\$4}{gallon}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000}{60} * \$4[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{10000 * \$4}{60}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \frac{\$40000}{60}[/tex]
[tex]Total\ Cost = \$666.666666667[/tex]

200-mm lever and a 240-mm-diameter pulley are welded to the axle BE that is supported by bearings at C and D. If a 720-N vertical load is applied at A when the lever is horizontal, determine (a) the tension in the cord, (b) the reactions at C and D. Assume that the bearing at D does not exert any axial thrust.
Answer:
a) the tension in the cord T is 1200 N
b)
reaction at C along x-axis Cy is 400 N
reaction at C along y-axis Cy is 1200 N
reaction at C along z-axis Cz is 0 N
reaction at D along X-axis Dx is 1600 N
reaction at D along y-axis Dy is -480 N
Explanation:
a)
to find the tension in the cord, we say;
∑ Mz = 0
720(200) - T(120) = 0
144000 - 120T = 0
T = 144000/120
T = 1200 N
the tension in the cord T is 1200 N
b)
the reactions at C and D. Assume that the bearing at D does not exert any axial thrust.
we make use of the moment law of equilibrium at point D about y-axis.
∑ MDy = 0
Cx(120) - T(40) = 0
we substitute value of T
Cx(120) - 1200(40) = 0
Cx 120 = 48000
Cx = 48000/120
Cx = 400 N
reaction at C along x-axis Cy is 400 N
Next we also apply the moment law of equilibrium at point D about x-axis.
∑MD z = 0
-Cy(120) + 720(80 + 120) = 0
-Cy(120) = - 144000
Cy = -144000 / - 120
Cy = 1200 N
reaction at C along y-axis Cy is 1200 N
we also apply the force law of equilibrium along z direction
∑Fz = 0
Cz = 0 N
reaction at C along z-axis Cz is 0 N
we also apply the force law of equilibrium along x direction
∑Fx = 0
Cx + Dx + T = 0
Substitute 400N for Cx and 1200 N for Dx
so
400 + Dx + 1200 = 0
Dx = 1600 N
therefore reaction at D along X-axis Dx is 1600 N
we also apply the force law of equilibrium along y direction
∑ Fy = 0
Cy + Dy - 720 = 0
we substitute Cy = 1200 N
so
1200 + Dy - 720 = 0
Dy = - 480 N
therefore reaction at D along y-axis Dy is -480 N

Answer:
gdyc ddxtfvytg4dgtfxdwcftcd3rcby
If the crankshaft end play is out of specifications, check for:
Thrust Bearings
Main Bearings
Crankshaft
Crankshaft Thrust Washers
Engine Block
To understand the crankshaft when it is out of specifications, check for:
Thrust Bearings: Check the condition of the thrust bearings, which are located at the front and/or rear of the engine block. Excessive wear or damage to the thrust bearings can contribute to increased crankshaft end play.
Main Bearings: Inspect the main bearings, which support the crankshaft within the engine block. Worn or damaged main bearings can cause excessive movement of the crankshaft.
Crankshaft: Check the crankshaft itself for any signs of damage, such as scoring or bending. A damaged crankshaft may not sit properly within the bearings, leading to increased end play.
Crankshaft Thrust Washers: Some engines use thrust washers to control the end play of the crankshaft. Inspect these washers for wear, damage, or improper installation.
Engine Block: Check the engine block for any signs of damage or distortion that may affect the alignment and support of the crankshaft.

Saturated liquid exits the condenser that operates at constant pressure of 6 kPa. Determine the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine and the thermal efficiency.
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Steam heated at constant pressure in a steam generator enters the first stage of a supercritical reheat cycle at 28 MPa, 520°C. Steam exiting the first-stage turbine at 6 MPa is reheated at constant pressure to 500°C. Each turbine stage has an isentropic efficiency of 78% while the pump has an isentropic efficiency of 82%. Saturated liquid exits the condenser that operates at constant pressure of 6 kPa.
Determine the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine and the thermal efficiency.
Answer:
- the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine is 0.9329
- the thermal efficiency is 36.05%
Explanation:
get the properties of steam at pressure p1 = 28 MPa and temperature T2 = 520°C .
Specific enthalpy h1= 3192.3 kJ/kg
Specific entropy s1 = 5.9566 kJ/kg.K
Process 1 to 2s is isentropic expansion process in the turbine
S1 = S2s
get the enthalpy at state 2s at pressure p2 = 6 MPa and S2s = 5.9566 kJ/kg.K
h2s = 2822.2 kJ/kg
get the enthalpy at state 2 using isentropic turbine efficiency of the turbine. nT1 = (h1 - h2) / (h1 - h2s)
0.78 = (3192.3 - h2) / (3192.3 - 2822.2)
h2 = 2903.6 kJ/kg
get the enthalpy at state 3 at pressure p2 = p3 = 6 MPa and T3 = 500°C
h3 = 3422.2 kJ/kg
s3 = 6.8803 kJ/kg.K
Process 3 to 4s is isentropic expansion process in the turbine
S3 = S4s
get the enthalpy at state 4s at pressure p4s = p4 = 6 kPa and S4s = 6.8803 kJ/kg.K
h4s = 2118.8 kJ/kg
get the enthalpy at state 4 using isentropic turbine efficiency of the turbine. nT2 = (h3 - h4) / (h3 - h4s)
0.78 = (3422.2 - h4) / ( 3422.2 - 2118.8 )
h4 = 2405.5 kJ/kg
get the properties at pressure, p5 = 6 kPa
h5 = hf
= 151.53 kJ/kg
v5 = Vf
= 0.0010064 m³/kg
get the enthalpy at state 6 using isentropic pump efficiency of the turbine, at
p6 = p1 = 28 MPa
np = v5( p6 - p5) / (h6 - h5)
0.82 = ((0.0010064)( 28000 - 6)) / (h6 - 151.53)
h6 = 185.89 kJ/kg
Now to find the quality of the steam at the exit of the second stage of the turbine
At stat4, p4 = 6kPa
h4f = 151.53 kJ/kg
h4fg = 2415.9 kJ/kg
h4 = h4f + x4h4fg
2405.5 = 151.53 + (x4 (2415.9))
x4 = 0.9329
the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine is 0.9329
Also to find the efficiency of the power plant, we use the following equation;
n = Wnet / Qin
= (Wt1 + Wt2 - Wp) / (Q61 + Q23)
= [(h1 - h2) + (h3 - h4) - (h6 - h5)] / [(h1 - h6) + (h3 - h2)]
[(3192.3 - 2903.6) + (3422.2 - 2405.5) - (185.89 - 151.53)] / [(3192.3 - 185.89) + (3422.2 - 2903.6)]
= 0.3605
n = 36.05%
therefore the thermal efficiency is 36.05%

A 200 Ω transmission line is to be matched to a computer terminal with ZL = (50 − j25) Ω by inserting an appropriate reactance in parallel with the line. If f = 800 MHz and r = 4, determine the location nearest to the load at which inserting:
A) A capacitor can achieve the required matching, and the value of the capacitor. PROBLEMS 131 B) An inductor can achieve the required matching, and the value of the inductor.
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
a) To solve this problem, we are going to use the smith chart. After entering the value of Zo = 200 ohm and ZL = (50 − j25) Ω, this give us [tex]z_L\ and\ y_L[/tex], the intersection between [tex]y_L[/tex] and the SWR line gives:
[tex]y(d)=1.026-j1.54\\\\We\ are\ using\ the\ imaginary\ part\ to calculate\ the\ capacitance,hence:\\\\wC=1.54*Y_o\\\\C=\frac{1.54}{Z_o*w}=\frac{1.54}{200*2\pi*800*10^6}=1.53*10^{-12}\\ \\C=1.53*10^{-12}F[/tex]
b) Also, we get:
[tex]y(d)=1.0-j1.52\\\\We\ are\ using\ the\ imaginary\ part\ to\ calculate\ the\ inductance,hence:\\\\1/wL=1.52*Y_o\\\\L=\frac{Z_o}{1.52*w}=\frac{200}{1.52*2\pi*800*10^6}=2.6*10^{-8}\\ \\L=2.6*10^{-8}H[/tex]
When joining two pieces of wood for an exterior application,
should be used. *
Answer:
A tongue- and -groove joint
Explanation:
In this method, you first cut a a groove on one piece of the wood and then cut a matching tongue on the other piece. The cuts can be made using a dado head on a table saw. A glue is applied last in a line all around, thus it is vital to cut the tongue a bit smaller than the groove to allow gluing.
Consider the following hypothetical scenario for Jordan Lake, NC. In a given year, the average watershed inflow to the lake is 900 cfs. Precipitation over the lake is 32 inches/year and evaporation over the lake is 55 inches/year; the area of the lake is 47,000 ac. If an average flow of 300 cfs must be released from the dam for the benefit of fish and downstream water users, calculate the amount of water that can be withdrawn from the lake to provide water supply for the Triangle area. Assume any other source/sink of water (such as groundwater), is negligible.
Answer:
The lake can withdraw a maximum of [tex]1.464\times 10^{10}[/tex] cubic feet per year to provide water supply for the Triangle area.
Explanation:
The maximum amount of water that can be withdrawn from the lake is represented by the following formula:
[tex]V = V_{in}+V_{p}-V_{e}-V_{out}[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Where:
[tex]V[/tex] - Available amount of water for water supply in the Triangle area, measured in cubic feet per year.
[tex]V_{in}[/tex] - Inflow amount of water, measured in cubic feet per year.
[tex]V_{out}[/tex] - Amount of water released for the benefit of fish and downstream water users, measured in cubic feet per year.
[tex]V_{p}[/tex] - Amount of water due to precipitation, measured in cubic feet per year.
[tex]V_{e}[/tex] - Amount of evaporated water, measured in cubic feet per year.
Then, we can expand this expression as follows:
[tex]V = f_{in}\cdot \Delta t+h_{p}\cdot A_{l}-h_{e}\cdot A_{l}-f_{out}\cdot \Delta t[/tex]
[tex]V = (f_{in}-f_{out})\cdot \Delta t +(h_{p}-h_{e})\cdot A_{l}[/tex] (Eq. 2)
Where:
[tex]f_{in}[/tex] - Average watershed inflow, measured in cubic feet per second.
[tex]f_{out}[/tex] - Average flow to be released, measured in cubic feet per second.
[tex]\Delta t[/tex] - Yearly time, measured in seconds per year.
[tex]h_{p}[/tex] - Change in lake height due to precipitation, measured in feet per year.
[tex]h_{e}[/tex] - Change in lake height due to evaporation, measured in feet per year.
[tex]A_{l}[/tex] - Surface area of the lake, measured in square feet.
If we know that [tex]f_{in} = 900\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s}[/tex], [tex]f_{out} = 300\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s}[/tex], [tex]\Delta t = 31,536,000\,\frac{second}{yr}[/tex], [tex]h_{p} = 32\,\frac{in}{yr}[/tex], [tex]h_{e} = 55\,\frac{in}{yr}[/tex] and [tex]A_{l} = 47,000\,acres[/tex], the available amount of water for supply purposes in the Triangle area is:
[tex]V = \left(900\,\frac{ft^{2}}{s}-300\,\frac{ft^{3}}{s} \right)\cdot \left(31,536,000\,\frac{s}{yr} \right) +\left(32\,\frac{in}{yr}-55\,\frac{in}{yr} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{12}\,\frac{ft}{in}\right)\cdot (47000\,acres)\cdot \left(43560\,\frac{ft^{2}}{acre} \right)[/tex][tex]V = 1.464\times 10^{10}\,\frac{ft^{3}}{yr}[/tex]
The lake can withdraw a maximum of [tex]1.464\times 10^{10}[/tex] cubic feet per year to provide water supply for the Triangle area.
