Determine the minimum radius of a horizontal curve required for a highway if the design speed is 70 mph and the superelevation rate is 0.08.
Answer:
1819.4 ft
Explanation:
Let us assume the coefficient of side friction is 0.10
The radius of curve is given by the formula:
[tex]R=\frac{V^2}{g(f_s+\frac{e}{100} )}[/tex]
Where R is the minimum radius of a horizontal curve, V is the speed, f is coefficient of side friction and e/100 = super elevation rate, g =acceleration due to gravity
Given that:
V = 70 mph = (70 * 1.467) ft/s = 102.69 ft/s, g =32.2 ft/s², e/100 = 0.08, f= 0.1
[tex]R=\frac{V^2}{g(f_s+\frac{e}{100} )}=\frac{102.69^2}{32.2(0.1+0.08)}=1819.4\ ft[/tex]
the minimum radius of a horizontal curve is 1819.4 ft

A specimen of some metal having a rectangular cross section 9.18 mm x 13.2 mm is pulled in tension with a force of 3310 N, which produces only elastic deformation. Given that the elastic modulus of this metal is 79 GPa, calculate the resulting strain.
Answer: 0.0000084
Explanation:
Given data:
Cross sectional area = 9.18mm*13.22mm
Force N = 3310
Elastic modulus = 79 GPa
Solution:
Area = 9.18mm * 13.22mm
= 121.36mm^2
= π(d)^2
= π(0.121)^2
= 0.05m^2
Stress = F/A
= 3310N/0.05m^2
= 66200Nm^2
Strain = Stress/ modulus of elastic
= 66200/7.9*10^10
= 0.0000084
It is known that the kinetics of recrystallization for some alloy obey the Avrami equation, and that the value of n in the exponential is 2.4. If, at some temperature, the fraction recrystallized is 0.30 after 100 min, determine the rate of recrystallization at this temperature.
Answer:
rate = 7.580 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] /min
Explanation:
given data
value of n = 2.4
fraction recrystallized = 0.30
time = 100 min
solution
we will get here rate of recrystallization at this temperaturewe use here avrami equation that is
y = 1 - exp (-k [tex]t^n[/tex] ) ................1
we get hete first k
k = [tex]-\frac{ln (1-y)}{t^n}[/tex]
put heer value n is 2.4 and y = 0.30 and t is 100
k = [tex]-\frac{ln (1-0.30)}{100^{2.4}}[/tex]
k = 5.65 × [tex]10^{-6}[/tex]
now we get here [tex]t^{0.5}[/tex]
value of t at y 0.5
[tex]t^{0.5}[/tex] = [tex][\frac{-ln(1-y)}{k}]^{1/n}[/tex]
[tex]t^{0.5}[/tex] = [tex][\frac{-ln(1-0.5)}{5.65\times 106{-6}}]^{1/2.4}[/tex]
[tex]t^{0.5}[/tex] = 131.923 min
and
rate = 1 ÷ [tex]t^{0.5}[/tex]
rate = 1 ÷ 131.923
rate = 7.580 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] /min
2. A freeway is being designed for a location in rolling terrain. The expected free-flow speed is 55 mph. During the peak hour, it is expected there will be a directional peak-hour volume of 2700 vehicles and 18% heavy vehicles. The PHF is expected to be 0.88. If a LOS no worse than D is desired, determine the necessary number of lanes.

Explanation:
Expected free flow speed = 55 mph
Volume of vehicles expected during peak-hour = 2700
PHF = 0.88
18% = 0.18 for heavy vehicles ( Pt )
Et ( for a rolling terrain ) = 3
Detailed solution attached below
First we calculate the Heavy-vehicle adjustment factor before determining the number of lanes
Para un intercambiador de calor encargado de precalentar pulpa de fruta, se utiliza agua caliente que entra a 180°C y sale a 78°C, mientras que la pulpa de fruta entra a 3°C y sube su temperatura hasta 55°C. Realizar los esquemas de perfil de temperaturas para un intercambiador de calor que funcione en paralelo y en contracorriente. Además, calcular LMTD.
Answer:
La diferencia media logarítimica de temperatura del intercambiador en paralelo es aproximadamente 75.466 ºC.
La diferencia media logarítmica de temperatura del intercambiador en contracorriente es aproximadamente 97.881 ºC.
Explanation:
De la teoría de Transferencia de Calor tenemos que un intercambiador de calor en paralelo presenta las siguientes dos características:
1) Tanto el fluido caliente como el fluido frío entran por el mismo lado.
2) Tanto el fluido caliente como el fluido frío salen por el mismo lado.
Mientras que el intercambiador de calor en contracorriente tiene que:
1) El fluido caliente y el fluido frío entran por lados opuestos.
2) El fluido caliente y el fluido frío salen por lados opuestos.
A continuación, anexamos los esquemas de perfil de cada intercambiador.
Ahora, la Diferencia Media Logarítimica de Temperatura ([tex]\Delta T_{lm}[/tex]), medida en grados Celsius, queda definida como sigue:
[tex]\Delta T_{lm} = \frac{\Delta T_{1}-\Delta T_{2}}{\ln \frac{\Delta T_{1}}{\Delta T_{2}} }[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Donde [tex]\Delta T_{1}[/tex] y [tex]\Delta T_{2}[/tex] son las diferencias de temperatura de los fluidos en cada extremo del intercambiador, medido en grados Celsius.
Procedemos a determinar esas diferencias y la Diferencia Media Logarítimica de Temperatura para cada configuración:
Intercambiador en paralelo
[tex]\Delta T_{1} = 180\,^{\circ}C-3\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{1} = 177\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{2} = 78\,^{\circ}C - 55\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{2} = 23\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{lm} = \frac{177\,^{\circ}C-23\,^{\circ}C}{\ln \frac{177\,^{\circ}C}{23\,^{\circ}C} }[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{lm} \approx 75.466\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
La diferencia media logarítimica de temperatura del intercambiador en paralelo es aproximadamente 75.466 ºC.
Intercambiador en contracorriente
[tex]\Delta T_{1} = 180\,^{\circ}C-55\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{1} = 125\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{2} = 78\,^{\circ}C-3\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{2} = 75\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{lm} = \frac{125\,^{\circ}C-75\,^{\circ}C}{\ln \frac{125\,^{\circ}C}{75\,^{\circ}C} }[/tex]
[tex]\Delta T_{lm} \approx 97.881\,^{\circ}C[/tex]
La diferencia media logarítmica de temperatura del intercambiador en contracorriente es aproximadamente 97.881 ºC.

The heating is to be accomplished by geothermal water (cp = 4.31 kJ/kg·°C) available at 140°C at a mass flow rate of 0.3 kg/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and the exit tempera
Answer:
73.15 kW, 196.6°C
Explanation:
Energy in - Energy out = change in energy
[tex]E_{in}-E_{out}=\Delta E\\\\\Delta E=0\\\\E_{in}-E_{out}=0\\\\E_{in}=E_{out}\\\\Q_{in}+\dot mh_1=\dot mh_2\\\\Q_{in}=\dot mh_2-\dot mh_1\\\\Q_{in}=\dot m c_p(T_2-T_1)[/tex]
The rate of heat transfer to cold water is given as:
[tex]Q_{in}=\dot m c_p(T_2-T_1)\\\\\dot m =0.5\ kg/s,c_p=4.18\ kJ/kg.^oC, T_2=60^oC,T_1=25^oC\\\\Q_{in}=(0.5 *4.18)(60-25)=73.15\ kW[/tex]
For the geothermal water:
[tex]Q_{in}=\dot m c_p(T_2-T_1)\\\\\dot m =0.3\ kg/s,c_p=4.31\ kJ/kg.^oC, ,T_1=140^oC\\\\T_2=\frac{Q}{\dot m c_p} +T_1=\frac{73.15}{0.3*4.31}+140=196.6\\ \\T_2=196.6^oC[/tex]
A signal processor has a reliability of 0.90. Because of the low reliability a redundant signal processor is to be added. However, a signal splitter must be added before the signal processors, and a comparator must be added after the signal processors. Each of these new components has a reliability of 0.95. Does adding a redundant signal processor increase the system reliability
Answer:
0.9732
Explanation:
A signal splitter must be placed before a processor and a comparator be placed after a processor.
This contains a series combination of a splitter, processor and comparator. Let R1 represent the reliability of the first subsystem and R2 be the reliability of the added redundant system.
Given: R(processor) = 0.9, R(new components) = 0.95 (i.e. splitter, new processor, comparator)
R1 = series combination of splitter, processor and comparator
R1 = R(splitter) × R(processor) × R(comparator) = 0.95 × 0.9 × 0.95 = 0.81225
R2 = series combination of splitter, processor and comparator
R2 = R(splitter) × R(new processor) × R(comparator) = 0.95 × 0.95 × 0.95 = 0.8574
R2 is the redundant system which is connected in parallel with R1, hence:
R(system) = 1 - (1 - R1)(1 - R2) = 1 - (1 - 0.81225)(1 - 0.8574)
R(system) = 0.9732

g What is the difference between surface erosion and bulk degradation, and for what application is each best suited
Explanation:
The main difference between surface erosion and bulk degradation is that in surface erosion as the name implies that the material or polymer begins to erode or degrade only from the external surface until it reaches the interior of the material. However, in bulk degradation, the material undergoes complete degradation from within and outside the material.
Surface erosion is best applied in pharmaceuticals in terms of drug delivery into the body, while bulk degradation is best applied in plastics which may degrade in any form.
In a two dimensional flow, the component of the velocity along the X-axis and the Y-axis are u = ax2 + by + cy2 and v = cxy. What should be the condition for the flow field to be incompressible
Answer:
The condition for the flow field to be incompressible is independent of a and c
Explanation:
We are given the component of the velocity along the X-axis and the Y-axis as;
u = ax² + by + cy²
v = cxy
Now, the condition for the flow to be incompressible is;
du/dx + dv/dy = 0
Now,
du/dx = 2ax
dv/dy = cx
Thus;
2ax + cx = 0
(2a + c)x = 0
Thus,the condition for the flow field to be incompressible is independent of a and c

Some measurements on a blood sample at 37 ˚C (98.6 ˚F) indicate a shearing stress of 0.540 N/m2 for a corresponding rate of shearing strain of 198 s-1. Determine (a) the apparent viscosity of the blood and (b) its ratio to the viscosity of water at the same temperature.
Answer:
[tex]0.00273\ \text{Pa s}[/tex]
3.944
Explanation:
[tex]\tau[/tex] = Shearing stress = [tex]0.54\ \text{N/m}^2[/tex]
[tex]\dot{\gamma}[/tex] = Rate of shearing strain = [tex]198\ \text{s}^{-1}[/tex]
(a) Viscosity is given by
[tex]\mu_b=\dfrac{\tau}{\dot{\gamma}}\\\Rightarrow \mu_b=\dfrac{0.54}{198}\\\Rightarrow \mu_b=0.00273\ \text{Pa s}[/tex]
The apparent viscosity of the blood is [tex]0.00273\ \text{Pa s}[/tex]
(b) Viscosity of water at 37 ˚C = 0.0006922 Pa s = [tex]\mu_w[/tex]
The ratio is
[tex]\dfrac{\mu_b}{\mu_w}=\dfrac{0.00273}{0.0006922}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\mu_b}{\mu_w}=3.944[/tex]
The required ratio is 3.944

Calculate the drain current in an NMOS transistor if Kn = 400 μA/V2, VT N = 0.5 V, λ = 0.02 V−1, VGS = 5 V, and VDS = 6 V. (Round off the answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
Drain current = 4050 μA
Explanation:
Determine the drain current in an NMOS transistor
Given data :
Kn = 400 μA/V^2
Vt = 0.5 v
λ = 0.02 V^−1
Vgs = 5 V
Vds = 6 v
Id = ?
The drain current can be calculated using the formula below
[tex]I_{D} = \frac{1}{2} U_{n} C_{OX} \frac{W}{L} ( V_{GS} - V_{t} ) ^2[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{2} Kn ( Vgs - Vt)^2[/tex]
= 1/2 ( 400 μA/V^2) ( 5 - 0.5 )^2
= (200 μA/V^2) * (20.25 v^2)
= 4050 μA
A rectangular channel with a width of 2 m is carrying 15 m3/s. What are the critical depth and the flow velocity
Answer:
The critical depth of the rectangular channel is approximately 1.790 meters.
The flow velocity in the rectangular channel is 4.190 meters per second.
Explanation:
From Open Channel Theory we know that critical depth of the rectangular channel ([tex]y_{c}[/tex]), measured in meters, is calculated by using this equation:
[tex]y_{c} = \sqrt[3]{\frac{\dot V^{2}}{g\cdot b^{2}} }[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Where:
[tex]\dot V[/tex] - Volume flow rate, measured in cubic meters per second.
[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.
[tex]b[/tex] - Channel width, measured in meters.
If we know that [tex]\dot V = 15\,\frac{m^{3}}{s}[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]b = 2\,m[/tex], then the critical depth is:
[tex]y_{c} = \sqrt[3]{\frac{\left(15\,\frac{m^{3}}{s} \right)^{2}}{\left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (2\,m)^{2}} }[/tex]
[tex]y_{c} \approx 1.790\,m[/tex]
The critical depth of the rectangular channel is approximately 1.790 meters.
Lastly, the flow velocity ([tex]v[/tex]), measured in meters, is obtained from this formula:
[tex]v = \frac{\dot V}{b\cdot y_{c}}[/tex] (Eq. 2)
If we know that [tex]\dot V = 15\,\frac{m^{3}}{s}[/tex], [tex]b = 2\,m[/tex] and [tex]y_{c} = 1.790\,m[/tex], then the flow velocity in the rectangular channel is:
[tex]v = \frac{15\,\frac{m^{2}}{s} }{(2\,m)\cdot (1.790\,m)}[/tex]
[tex]v = 4.190\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The flow velocity in the rectangular channel is 4.190 meters per second.

In a hydroelectric power plant, water enters the turbine nozzles at 880 kPa absolute with a low velocity. If the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa, determine the maximum velocity to which water can be accelerated by the nozzles before striking the turbine blades. The maximum velocity is m/s.
Answer:
39.5 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this question, we would use Bernoulli's equation
P₁/ρ + V₁²/2 + gz₁ = P₂/ρ + V₂²/2 + gz₂,
where V₁ = 0 and z₁ = z₂, so that we have
P₁/ρ = P₂/ρ + V₂²/2
making V₂² subject of formula, we have that
V₂² = 2[P₁/ρ - P₂/ρ]
Then we finally go ahead and substitute the values such that
V₂² = 2 [(880000/1000) - (100000/1000)]
V₂² = 2 (880 - 100)
V₂² = 2(780)
V₂² = 1560
V₂ = √1560
V₂ = 39.5 m/s
