Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.5.3P
A tensile test was performed on a metal specimen having a circular cross section with a diameter 0. 510 inch. For each increment of load applied, the strain was directly determined by means of a strain gage attached to the specimen. The results are, shown in Table: 1.5.1.
a. Prepare a table of stress and strain.
b. Plot these data to obtain a stress-strain curve. Do not connect the data points; draw a best-fit straight line through them.
c. Determine the modulus of elasticity as the slope of the best-fit line.

Vehicles begin to arrive at an amusement park
entrance at 8:00 A.M. at a rate of 1000veh/h. Some of
these vehicles have electronic identifiers that allow
them to enter the park immediately, beginning at 8:00
A.M., without stopping (they are billed remotely). All
vehicles without such identifiers stop at a single
processing booth, but they wait in line until it opens at
8:10 A.M. Once open, the operator processes vehicles
at μ(t) = 8 + 0.5t [where μ(t) is in vehicles per minute
and t is in minutes after 8:10 A.M.]. An observer notes
that at 8:25 there are exactly 20 vehicles in the queue.
What percent of arriving vehicles have electronic
identifiers and what is the total delay (from the 8:00
A.M. until the queue clears) for those vehicles without
the electronic identifiers (assume D/D/1 queuing)?
1. For truss given in a figure below, determine reactions, and forces in all truss members. De-
termine forces using two methods independently: (a) method of joints, and (b) method of
sections. Compare your results and verify that your solutions are accurate. Assume that force

1) Determine if the existing sedimentation basins are sufficient to accommodate the
projected future capacity. If not, design upgrades to the sedimentation basins.
A) Current Capacity: 22.5 MGD
B) Future Capacity: 34.5 MGD for 110,000 residents
C) If not, design upgrades to the sedimentation basins.
2) Specify the design flow rate, the type of basin (circular vs. rectangular)
3) Specify the basin dimensions (length, width, water depth or diameter and water
depth).
4) Specify the dimensions of the launders (if applicable) and the length of the weir.
