Stripping overburden in the Illinois coal belt, the Dusty Coal Company uses 270-horsepower, track-type tractors (with direct-drive transmissions) and drawn scrapers. The overburden is a very soft loam that weighs 2,800 lb/yd (loose). Estimated RR factor for the haul road is 300 lb/ton. If the scraper weighs 35,000 lb (empty) and carries 25 loose cubic yards per trip, what is the RR of the loaded unit

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Aplate clutch has a single pair of mating friction surfaces 250-mm od by 175-mm id. the mean value of the coefficient of friction is 0.30, and the actuating force is 4 kn. a) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-wear model. b) find the maximum pressure and the torque capacity using the uniform-pressure model.
