A horizontal curve on a two-lane highway is designed with a 610-m radius, 3.5-m lanes, and 80 kph design speed. Determine the distance that must be cleared from the inside edge of the inner lane to provide sufficient stopping sight distance. (Note: Curve radius is typically reckoned from the centerline of the roadway, and driver location is assumed to be at the middle of the travelled lane.) Assume coefficient of friction as 0.35.

solve the questions on the picture please
Please do not give solution in image format thanku If you want to do your scale model presentation in such a way that BOTH the size AND distance scaled are correct, how far apart would your squishy stress ball Moon and your answer to the previous question need to be? HINT: Multiply the diameter of the scale model Earth that you chose in the previous question by the number of Earth diameters that would fit between the Earth and the Moon. Answer choices: A- You'll need to put one against one wall and hold the other one across the room 240 inches or 20 feet apart B- You will need a volunteer from the audience so you can hold them 72 inches or 9 feet apart C- You could hold them both in front of you at 16 inches or about 1.3 feet apart D- You'll need to tell the kids to use their powers of imagination because the separation would put one of them in the parking lot outside the science center 3600 inches or 300 feet away

You've been selected as the geotechnical engineer by a commercial developer. She wants to build a one-story structure with a footprint (plan view) of 50 by 100 ft on a previously developed site. To kick- off the project, she has scheduled a meeting with you, the architect, and the structural engineer. Choose which of the following types of historical information you would review before attending the meeting. Select one: a. Location map, aerial photographs, geologic maps and publications, topographic maps, your internal project files. O b. No review is necessary since the geotechnical study will provide you with all the site information you need.
I will rate your answer immediately

25. On a 30-scale drawing, if an object is shown as 1 inch long, what is the actual length of the object in inches? In feet? 26. An object is known to have an actual length of 5 feet. If the object is represented on a 60-scale drawing, what length will it be in the drawing in inches? 27. An object has an actual size of 10 feet in length and is represented in a 30-scale drawing accordingly. What will the actual size of this same object be in a 60-scale drawing?
