A wheel tractor-scraper whose weight on the driving wheels is 38,720 lb (17,563 kg) has a gross weight of 70,400 lb (31,933 kg). If the road surface is dry earth with a rolling resistance factor of 100 lb/ton (50 kg/t), what is the maximum grade the scraper could ascend?

Condition monitoring is a major component of. (clo4) a)- predictive maintenance. b)-preventive maintenance c)-proactive maintenance d)-reactive maintenance.

The characteristic roots of a dynamic system are: 1.7920 1.8160 i, -1.7920 1.8160 i, -0.4160 what is the order of this system? what are the settling time and damping ratio of the system?

Air enters a horizontal, constant-diameter heating duct operating at steady state at 290 k, 1 bar, with a volumetric flow rate of 0.25 m°/s, and exits at 325 k, 0.95 bar. the flow area is 0.04 m2. assuming the ideal gas model with k = 1.4 for the air, determine (a) the velocity at the inlet and exit, each in m/s, and (c) the rate of heat transfer, in kw flow rate, in kg/s, (b) the mass kg 0.3
