Consider a 4 lane freeway that normally has a capacity of 8000 veh/hr. The demand on the freeway is 7000 veh/hr. An incident shuts down one of the lanes for 30 minutes and reduces the capacity to 6000 veh/hr. Afterwards, the capacity returns to 8000 veh/hr. There is a parallel arterial street with a capacity of 1500 veh/hr. Freeway traffic can divert and use the arterial. However, there is already ademandof 1000 veh/hron the arterial. Calculate and compare the total delay (arterial and freeway combined) for the following two scenarios and comment on the differences:a.1000 veh/hr divert from the freeway to the arterial during the 30 minute incidentb.500 veh/hr divert from the freeway to the arterial during the 30 minute incident

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.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
