In a shear box test on sand a shearing force of 800 psf was applied with normal stress of 1750 psf. Find the major and minor principal stresses.

Answer:

The major and minor stresses are as 2060.59 psf, -310.59 psf and 1185.59 psf.

Explanation:

The major and minor principal stresses are given as follows:

[tex]\sigma_{max}=\dfrac{\sigma_x+\sigma_y}{2}+\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\sigma_x-\sigma_y}{2}\right)^2+\tau_{xy}^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_{min}=\dfrac{\sigma_x+\sigma_y}{2}-\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\sigma_x-\sigma_y}{2}\right)^2+\tau_{xy}^2}[/tex]

Here

So the formula becomes

[tex]\sigma_{max}=\dfrac{\sigma_x+\sigma_y}{2}+\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\sigma_x-\sigma_y}{2}\right)^2+\tau_{xy}^2}\\\sigma_{max}=\dfrac{1750+0}{2}+\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{1750-0}{2}\right)^2+(800)^2}\\\sigma_{max}=875+\sqrt{\left(875)^2+(800)^2} \\\sigma_{max}=875+\sqrt{765625+640000}\\\sigma_{max}=875+1185.59\\\sigma_{max}=2060.59 \text{psf}[/tex]

Similarly, the minimum normal stress is given as

[tex]\sigma_{min}=\dfrac{\sigma_x+\sigma_y}{2}-\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\sigma_x-\sigma_y}{2}\right)^2+\tau_{xy}^2}\\\sigma_{min}=\dfrac{1700+0}{2}-\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{1700-0}{2}\right)^2+(800)^2}\\\sigma_{min}=875-\sqrt{(875)^2+(800)^2}\\\sigma_{min}=875-\sqrt{765625+640000}\\\sigma_{min}=875-1185.59\\\sigma_{min}=-310.59 \text{ psf}[/tex]

The maximum shear stress is given as

[tex]\tau_{max}=\dfrac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}\\\tau_{max}=\dfrac{2060.59-(-310.59)}{2}\\\tau_{max}=\dfrac{2371.18}{2}\\\tau_{max}=1185.59 \text{psf}[/tex]

The human eye, as well as the light-sensitive chemicals on color photographic film, respond differently to light sources with different spectral distributions. Daylight lighting corresponds to the spectral distribution of the solar disk, which may be approximated as a blackbody at 5800K. Incandescent lighting from the usual household bulb corresponds approximately to the spectral distribution of a black body at 2900K. Calculate the band emission fractions for the visible region, 0.47 mu m to 0.65 mum, for each of the lighting sources.

We are given a CSP with only binary constraints. Assume we run backtracking search with arc consistency as follows. Initially, when presented with the CSP, one round of arc consistency is enforced. This first round of arc consistency will typically result in variables having pruned domains. Then we start a backtracking search using the pruned domains. In this backtracking search we use filtering through enforcing arc consistency after every assignment in the search.
Which of the following are true about this algorithm?
a) If after a run of arc consistency during the backtracking searchwe end up with the filtered domains of allof the not yetassigned variables being empty, this means the CSP has nosolution.
b) If after a run of arc consistency during the backtracking searchwe end up with the filtered domain of oneof the not yetassigned variables being empty, this means the CSP has nosolution.
c) None of the above.

You will be hiking to a lake with some of your friends by following the trails indicated on a map at the trailhead. The map says that you will travel 1.7 mi directly north, then 2.7 mi in a direction 36° east of north, then finally 1.7 mi in a direction 15° north of east. At the end of this hike, how far will you be from where you started, and what direction will you be from your starting point?

An acid-base indicator is usually a weak acid with a characteristic color in the protonated (acid) and deprotonated (conjugate base) forms. In this assignment, you will monitor the color of an acetic acid solution containing Bromocresol Green as an indicator, as the pH is changed and then you will use your data to calculate the ionization constant, Ka, for the bromocresol green indicator and compare to an accepted value.
1. Start Virtual Chemlab, select Acid-Base Chemistry, and then select lonization Constants of Weak Acids from the list of assignments. The lab will open in the Titration laboratory. Bottles of 0.1104 M NaOH and 0.1031 M HAC (acetic acid) will be on the lab bench. The buret will be filled with the NaOH solution and a beaker containing 10.00 mL of the HAc solution will be on the stir plate. The stir plate will be on, Bromocresol Green indicator will have been added to the beaker, and a calibrated pH probe will also be in the beaker so the pH of the solution can be monitored.
2. What is the color and pH of the solution?
3. On the buret, the horizontal position of the orange handle is off for the stopcock. Open the stopcock by pulling down on the orange handle. The vertical position delivers solution the fastest with three intermediate rates in between (slow dropwise, fast dropwise, and slow stream). Turn the stopcock to the second position or fast drop-wise addition. Observe the color of the solution and close the stopcock when you observe the change in color by double clicking on the center of the stopcock.
4. What is the color and pH of the solution now?
5. Continue to add NaOH as before or at a faster rate. What is the final color and pH of the solution after all of the NaOH is added?
6. An acid-base indicator is usually a weak acid with a characteristic color in the protonated and deprotonated forms. Because bromocresol green is an acid, it is convenient to represent its rather complex formula as HBOG. HBOG ionizes in water according to the following equation:
HBOG + H2O = BCG + H3O+
(yellow) (blue)
The K. (the equilibrium constant for the acid) expression is:
Ka = [BCG-][H3O+]/[HBCG)
When [BCG-[ = [HBCG), then Ka = [H3O+). If you know the pH of the solution, then the [H3O+] and Ka can be determined.
What would be the color of the solution if there were equal concentrations of HBCG and BCG-?
What is the pH at the first appearance of this color?
What is an estimate for the Ka for bromocresol green?
