A highway reconstruction project involves a major realignment of thehighway such that a 60 mph design speed is attained. At one point on the highway, an 800 ft, equal-tangent, crest vertical curve exists. Measurements show that at 3+52 stations from the PVC, the vertical curve offset (tangent offset) is 3 ft.
1. Assess the adequacy of the existing curve in light of the reconstruction design speed of 60 mph.
2. If the existing curve is inadequate, compute a satisfactory curve length.

Water at 70°f and streams enter the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the exiting stream. 0 psia is heated in a chamber by mixing it with saturated water vapor at 20 psia. if both streams enters the mixing chamber at the same mass flow rate, determine the temperature and the quality of the existing system.

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.
