1.An egual-tangent sag vertical curve is designed with the PVC at station 109+00 and elevation 950 ft, the PVI at station 110+77 and elevation 947.34 ft, and the low point at station 110+50. Determine the design speed of the curve.

2.Suppose that sodium pentobarbital is used to anesthetize a dog. the dog is anesthetized when its bloodstream contains at least 45 mg of sodium pentobarbitol per kilogram of the dog's body weight. Suppose also that sodium pentobarbitol is eliminated exponetially for the dogs bloodstream, with a half-life of 5 h. what single dose should be administered in order to anesthetize a 50-kg dog for 1 h?

The pump is located close to the pipe entrance at the lower : Water from a lower reservoir (water surface elevation) 500 m is pumping to the upper reservoir (water surface elevation 600 m) through a 5000 m long straight pipe with 0.5 m diameter

Calculate the distance the tank has moved when the water in : Use appropriate kinematics equations (for the right ranges) for the new velocity and distance traveled. (Hint: when the impulse becomes a non-negative number set it to zero; then the acceleration becomes zero and the velocity does not change; so use ..

Why was the specific weight of water used to find the head : A beam must carry a total factored bending moment of 1062kN-m. It has a maximum beam effective depth of 25in. Design the beam in US customary units using f’c=4ksi and fy=413.4MPa. If necessary use d’=2.5in. Assume an exterior exposure according to AC..

Determine the tension in each of the cables at a time when : A long trough is supported by a hinge along its lower edge and a series of horizontal cables attached to its upper edge. Determine the tension in each of the cables, at a time when the trough is full of water.

Determine the design speed of the curve : An egual-tangent sag vertical curve is designed with the PVC at station 109+00 and elevation 950 ft, the PVI at station 110+77 and elevation 947.34 ft, and the low point at station 110+50. Determine the design speed of the curve.
