A 10-ft-thick silty clay layer is subjected to a load that results in total primary consolidation settlement of 0.85 inches. The clay is sandwiched between two sand layers and has an initial void ratio of 0.76, a coefficient of compression of 0.45, a coefficient of recompression of 0.07 and a coefficient of consolidation of 0.034 in2/year. Calculate the settlement at the end of 2 years and determine the time in days for 0.60 inches of settlement.

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
