A sinking ship signals to the shore for help. Three individuals spot the signal from shore. The first individual is directly perpendicula to the sinking ship and 20 meters inland. The second individual is also 20 meters inland but 100 meters to the right of the first individual. The third is also 20 meters inland but 125 meters to the right of the first individual. How far off shore is the sinking ship? A 100 m (B) 80 m 136 m (D) 60 m

Example 9 (Homework) The following set of readings was taken aleong stations of a proposed oil pipeline: 1.5, 1.52, 1.8, 1.9, 2.5, 3.02, 2.09, 2.47, 4.03, 2.55, 2.11, 3.22, and 3.1. The sixth reading was taken at a benchmark of 14 m next to fifth station and the instrument was shifted after third station and eight reading. The distance between each two stations (from i to 5) is 100 m; from 5 to 9 is 50 m and distance at station 10 is o+620 km. Oil pipeline has to be constructed with the same elevation at station (0+620) and with no slope. Calculate cut and fill depths and draw the pipeline profile assuming suitable vertical and horizontal scales.

A 5.75m high noise barrier is used to attenuate sound from a roadway adjacent to a residential subdivision. The height of the noise source is 1.25m and the height of the receiver is 2.25m. The distance from the noise source to the noise barrier is 22.00m. The distance from the noise barrier to the center of the rear yard of the residences is 11.00m. Determine the Path Length Difference in meters (accurate to 4 dec.pl.) that is created by the noise barrier.
Hydaway Lake needs to monitor the lake bottom conditions. A contract withEagle Underwater Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV) was established to create a remotelyoperated vehicle. The ROV must be able to determine where it is relative to the sides of thelake. Eagle ROV is using a standard periscope through which a laser measuring system willoperate. The 2.5-m long periscope is attached to the ROV and has an outside diameter of 50mm. The ROV travels at 1 m/sec in water that is 15°C. Based on the assumption that theperiscope is a smooth cylinder determine the moment at the periscope-ROV interface. Thewater is at 15°C.

At what height or heights from the bed, will you make the measurements to determine the mean in vertical velocity by: (i) one-point method, and (ii) by two-points method?
A fireworks show is choreographed to have two shells cross paths at a height of 162 feet and explode at an apex of 208 feet under normal weather conditions. The shells have a launch angle = 58° above the horizontal.
