Results of a standard compaction test (mold volume 943.9 cm3 ) are: Trial No. 1 Mass of soil + mold 5619 g Mass of mold 3735 g Water content test Mass of sample + container 288.26 g Mass of dry sample + container 265.39 g Mass of container 104.31 g Trial No. 2 Dry density 1795 kg/m3 w=14.9% Trial No. 3 Dry density 1828 kg/m3 w=15.6% Trial No. 4 Dry density 1832 kg/m3 w=16.5% Trial No. 5 Dry density 1796 kg/m3 w=17.6% Complete the calculations for trial No. 1. Draw the moisture-density curve using Excel or other spreadsheet programs. Include ZAV curves at w=16%, 17%, and 18%. (The relative density of the soil is 2.65.) Find the maximum dry density and the optimum water content.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
