Chapter 1, Problem 1.5.4P

A tensile test was performed on a metal specimen with a diameter of 1 2 inch and a gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) of 4 inches. The dam were plotted on a load-displacement graph. P vs. Δ L . A best-fit line was drawn through the points, and the slope of the straight-line portion was calculated to be P / Δ L = 1392 kips/in. What is the modulus of elasticity?

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 F = 10kN. 2m 2m 2m ▼F ▼F 4m ▼F 4m
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.
