Two vehicles collided head on while traveling on a curve tangent with a 3% grade. Vehicle V1 skidded 195 feet downhill before colliding with vehicle V2. Vehicle V2 skidded 130 feet. The police report estimates that the speed of both vehicles at impact was 25 mph, based on vehicle deformation. Assume a coefficient of friction of 0.48. What is V1 speed at the beginning of the skid?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed V1 at the beginning of the skid  = 57.075 mph

Explanation:

Calculate the V1 speed at the beginning of the skid

V1 ( speed before brake was applied ) = ?

distance travelled by Vehicle 1 = 195 ft

curve tangent for vehicle 1 =  - 3% = - 0.03

coefficient of friction = 0.48

speed at Impact = 25 mph

To determine the V1 speed at the beginning of the skid we have to apply AASTHO

d1 = [tex]( \frac{VA^{2} - VA^{12} }{30(F+N)} )[/tex]

195 =  [tex](\frac{VA^2- 25^2}{30(0.48-0.03)} )[/tex]

Hence : VA = 57.075 mph

A commercial jet is flying at a standard altitude of 35,000 ft with a velocity of 550 mph: (a) what is the Mach number? (b) should the flow be treated as incompressible, why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

Mach number = 0.68168

The flow should be treated as compressible.

Explanation:

Given that:

The altitude of a commercial jet = 35000

The properties of air at that given altitude are as follows:

Pressure = 24.577 kPa

Temperature T = 50.78176° C

Temperature T = ( 50.78176 + 273 )K = 328.78176 K

[tex]\varphi = 0.38428 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

The velocity is also given as: 550 mph = 245.872 m/s

Therefore, the sonic velocity is firstly determined by using the formula:

[tex]a = \sqrt{ \vartheta \times R \times T\[/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{1.4 \times 287 \times 323.78176[/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{130095.5112[/tex]

a = 360.68755 m/s

Then, we can calculate the Mach number by using the expression:

[tex]{Mach \ number = \dfrac{V}{a}}[/tex]

[tex]Mach \ number = \dfrac{245.872}{360.68755}[/tex]

Mach number = 0.68168

b) Ideally, all flows are compressible because the Mach number is greater than 0.3, suppose the Mach number is lesser than 0.3, then it is incompressible.

Should transistors used in switching circuits be biased in the active region? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

  no

Explanation:

No. More power is dissipated when the transistor is in its active region. In general, transistors in switching circuits are biased either "on" or "off". Time spent in the active region is minimized.

_____

On the other hand, speed can be enhanced if the transistors are active. So, it's a speed/power trade-off. Usually power is of more interest, particularly when there are millions of switching circuits. However, in certain applications, speed may be the priority, so the transistor will be biased in its active region.

1. A gas pressure difference is applied to the legs of a U-tube manometer filled with a liquid with S = 1.5. The manometer reading is 286 mm. Find the pressure difference in kPa. (10 points)
2. Convert the pressure 2.5 psi into units of inches of mercury and feet of water (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

1) The pressure difference is 4.207 kilopascals.

2) 2.5 pounds per square inch equals 5.093 inches of mercury and 5.768 feet of water.

Explanation:

1) We can calculate the gas pressure difference from the U-tube manometer by using the following hydrostatic formula:

[tex]\Delta P = \frac{S\cdot \rho_{w}\cdot g \cdot \Delta h}{1000}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]S[/tex] - Relative density, dimensionless.

[tex]\rho_{w}[/tex] - Density of water, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]\Delta h[/tex] - Height difference in the U-tube manometer, measured in meters.

[tex]\Delta P[/tex] - Gas pressure difference, measured in kilopascals.

If we know that [tex]S = 1.5[/tex], [tex]\rho_{w} = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}[/tex], [tex]g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]\Delta h = 0.286\,m[/tex], then the pressure difference is:

[tex]\Delta P = \frac{1.5\cdot \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.286\,m)}{1000}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta P = 4.207\,kPa[/tex]

The pressure difference is 4.207 kilopascals.

2) From Physics we remember that a pound per square unit equals 2.036 inches of mercury and 2.307 feet of water and we must multiply the given pressure by corresponding conversion unit: ([tex]p = 2.5\,psi[/tex])

[tex]p = 2.5\,psi\times 2.037\,\frac{in\,Hg}{psi}[/tex]

[tex]p = 5.093\,in\,Hg[/tex]

[tex]p = 2.5\,psi\times 2.307\,\frac{ft\,H_{2}O}{psi}[/tex]

[tex]p = 5.768\,ft\,H_{2}O[/tex]

2.5 pounds per square inch equals 5.093 inches of mercury and 5.768 feet of water.

What shortcoming does a parity bit have when used as an error detection scheme for a sequence of ones and zeros

Answers

Answer:

It only detects errors if an odd number of bit flips have occurred.

Explanation:

Parity is a measure of how even or odd a string of digits (for example, a string of binary units is).  It is obtained by calculating the value of all the bits. Parity is used in error detection. A parity error is detected when the parity and the odd number of bits are incorrectly propagated.

A problem commonly associated with the parity bits is that they can only detect an odd number of bit errors. This means that if a digit is corrupted in the even binary digits there would be an incorrect detection of errors.

Modulus of Elasticity (E)
Extreme Fiber Bending (F )
Horizontal Shear Parallel to the Grain (F //)
Compression Perpendicular to the Grain (F z )

Answers

Answer:Modulus of Elasticity (E)-------- A

Explanation:

The modulus of elasticity, Young's modulus E is a measure of a material's stiffness or resistance to being elastically deformed when stressed or due to tension According to  Hook's law the modulus of elasticity is defined as the ratio of the stress to the strain and defined as the slope of its stress-strain region  in the stress and strain graph.

--The stiffer a material, the higher the elastic modulus and vice versa for a less stiff material.

it can be calculated with this formulae

Young’s modulus equation is E = tensile stress/tensile strain

= (FL) / (A X change in L)

where F = applied force,

L = initial length,

A = square area,

E = Young’s modulus in Pascals (Pa).

A very long rectangular fin is attached to a flat surface such that the temperature at the end of the fin is essentially that of the surrounding air, i.e. 20C. Its width is 5 cm; thickness is 1 mm; thermal conductivity is 200 W/m.K; and base temperature is 40C. The heat transfer coefficient is 22 W/m2 .K. Estimate the temperature at a distance of 5 cm from the base and the rate of heat loss from the entire fin.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

x = 5 cm = 0.05 m, width (w) = 5 cm = 0.05 m, thickness (t) = 1 mm = 0.001 m, k = thermal conductivity = 200 W/mK, h = heat transfer coefficient = 22 W/m².K, Tb = base temperature = 40°C, T∞ = 20°C

It is desired to enrich the partial pressure of hydrogen in a hydrogen–nitrogen gas mixture for which the partial pressures of both gases are 0.1013 MPa (1 atm). It has been proposed to accomplish this by passing both gases through a thin sheet of some metal at an elevated temperature; in as much as hydrogen diffuses through the plate at a higher rate than does nitrogen, the partial pressure of hydrogen will be higher on the exit side of the sheet. The design calls for partial pressures of 0.051 MPa (0.5 atm) and 0.01013 MPa (0.1 atm), respectively, for hydrogen and nitrogen. The concentrations of hydrogen and nitrogen (CHC
H and CNC N , in mol/m3mol/m
3 ) in this metal are functions of gas partial pressures (pH2 and pN2p
H 2 and p N , in MPa) and absolute temperature and are given by the following expressions:
CH=2.5×103√pH2exp(−27,800J/mol/RT)
CN=2.75×103√pN2exp(−37,600J/mol/RT )
​Furthermore, the diffusion coefficients for the diffusion of these gases in this metal are functions of the absolute temperature, as follows:
DH(m2/s)=1.4×10−7exp(−13,400J/mol/RT)
DN(m2/s)=3.0×10−7exp(−76,150J/mol/RT)
Is it possible to purify hydrogen gas in this manner? If so, specify a temperature at which the process may be carried out, and also the thickness of metal sheet that would be required. If this procedure is not possible, then state the reason(s) why.

Answers

Answer:

T = 3460 K

Explanation:

See attachment for calculation.

Since the temperature we have is above the melting point of the metal, then we can conclude that it is too high for the diffusion process to be possible.

The value for the resistor that is chosen for two fixed arms from the Wheatstone Bridge have to be quite bear each other, as much as possible. The arm that moves and the other that doesn't move, their resistance values are made to be quite close as well. This makes the resistance of the arm that moves to be set somewhere in the middle, and as a result, the measurements don't exceed beyond the resistance range of the arm that moves.

The critical resolved shear stress for a metal is 36 MPa. Determine the maximum possible yield strength (in MPa) for a single crystal of this metal that is pulled in tension.

Answers

Answer:

72 MPa

Explanation:

Critical resolved shear stress = 36 MPa

calculate the maximum possible yield strength for a single crystal of the metal

first we have to express the critical resolved shear stress as

бy = 2т[tex]_{critical}[/tex]

given that the minimum stress needed to introduce yielding curve will occur  at Ψ = λ = 45

where : бy = yielding stress

             t[tex]_{critical}[/tex] = 36MPa

therefore the maximum possible yield strength

= (2) * (36)

= 72 MPa
