Consider a household that uses 23.8 kw-hour of electricity per day on average. (kw-hours is a measure of energy that will be discussed in detail in a later chapter. at this point we want to establish estimations.) most of that electricity is supplied by fossil fuels. to reduce their carbon footprint, the household wants to install solar panels, which receive on average 336 w/m2 from the sun each day. if the solar panels are 19.0% efficient (fraction of solar energy converted into useable electrical energy), what area of solar panels is needed to power the household

A grade 5, 1-in. UNF bolt has rolled threads and is used to clamp two rigid members together so that kc = 4kb . In keeping with the fatigue treatment of ductile members given in Chapter 8, assume that the material has an idealized stress–strain curve, with a "square corner" at the yield strength (not the proof strength). There is a force tending to separate the members that fluctuates rapidly between 0 and 20,000 lb. The construction and pre- cision of manufacture are such that there is a possibility of slight bolt bending. Two val- ues of initial tension are …

A primary runway is being designed for a new airport to serve airport approach category B. As part of this work it is required to design two con- secutive vertical curves (a crest vertical curve followed by a sag vertical curve) to be located midway along the length of the runway. The design should satisfy all the grade and minimum length requirements. If conditions are such that the crest vertical curve connect grades of +.5% and +1.5%, determine all the properties of both curves that will be necessary to set out the curves. The elevation and station of the point …
