A 33-year record of peak annual flow rates was subjected to a frequency analysis. THe median value is defined as the midvalue (50% value) in the table of rank-ordered magnitudes. Estimate the following.
a)The probability that the annual peak will exceed or equal the median value in any single year?
b)The average return period of the median value?
c)The probability that the annual peak in 1993 will equal or exceed the median value?
d)The probability that the peak flow rate next year will be less than the median value?
e)The probability that the peak flow in all of the next 10 successive years will be less than the median value?
f)The probability that the peak flow will equal or exceed the median value at least once in 10 successive years?
g)The probability that the peak flow rates in both of two consecutive years will equal or exceed the median value?
h)The probability that, for a 2-year period, the peak flow rate will equal or exceed the median value in the second year, but not in the first year?

What will be the discharge through the pipe
: A pump having the characteristics given in figure 14.9 ( N=2133.5 rpm, n=35.6 rps, D=37.1 cm) pumps water at 25 degree C from a reservoir at an elevation of 366 m to a reservoir at an elevation

Find the operating points (q) for one pump
: The pump curve for a given pump is represented by hp,pump=20 (1-(Q/100)^2) where hp,pump is the head provided by the pump in feet and Q is the discharge in gpm.

What is the minimum radius that can be cleared
: A two lane hwy with 12' lanes is to be reconstructed to a design speed of 50 mph. Due to right of way restrictions, the largest distance that can be cleared from the edge of the road is 10'. What is the min. radius?

Compute the maximum fiber stress
: An S 12x40.8 of A36 steel in a building is supported as a simple beam having a span equal to 17ft 6in. and carries a uniform load equal to 1.60 klf, which includes the weight of the beam over the entire span.

What is the probability that the probability if the flow
: You are provided that a 33-year record of peak annual flow rates was subjected to a frequency analysis. You are interested in the median value. Thus, for part (a), what is the probability that the probability if the flow rate exceeds the median value..
