Question A steel rod having a cross-sectional area of 300 mm2 and a length of 150 m is suspended vertically from one end. It supports a tensile load of 20 kN at the lower end. If the unit mass of steel is 7850 kg/m3 and E = 200 × 103 MN/m2, find the total elongation of the rod.Answer: s=54.33 mm

1. Describe the transportation modes available in your hometown. Using your own words, explain how the transportation modes influenced the development of your hometown. (10 marks) 2. List and briefly describe at least five transportation facility characteristics typically specified by design standards. (5 marks) 3. Determine the stopping sight distance on a 4.0% grade at a design speed of 100 km/h. (5 marks) 4. Design standards link vehicle characteristics, human characteristics and the characteristics of the transportation facility. What features of human and vehicle characteristics are important in the derivation of design standards? (10 marks) 5. Compute the minimum length of vertical curve that will provide 220 m stopping sight distance for a design speed of 110 km/h at the intersection of a -3.50% grade and a +2.70% grade. (5 marks)

Biostatistics ESSAY A firm investigates the length of telephone conversations of their office staff. Ten consecutive conversations had lengths, in minutes: 10.7, 9.5, 11.1, 7.8, 11.9, 4.1, 10.0, 9.2, 6.5, 9.2. Derive a 95% confidence interval for the mean conversation length. Test whether the mean length of a conversation is eight minutes.(25 MARKS)

P3.5 The sales revenue, food cost of sales, and guests served for a small fast- food carryout division of a restaurant for the past six months are given below. Sales Month Cost of Revenue Guests Served Sales, Food 1 2. 4 $258,200 274,800 285,600 289,400 298,300 304,600 $ 96,200 104,300 110,500 113,100 118,900 123,700 10,200 10,400 10,300 10,100 10,400 10,500 6 For each of the six months calculate average check and average costs of sales food. Using these averages, calculate an index number. Set the in- dex for month 1 at 100 and complete index numbers for the remaining five months. With the index numbers identified, convert sales revenue and cost of sales food from historic to current dollars.

A cylindrical rock sample has a length of 6 cm, a diameter of 4 cm, and a dry weight of 166.4 g. When fully saturated with an oil of density 0.85 g/cm3, the weight of this sample is 176.9 g. Assuming constant temperature, find: i) The porosity of the sample ii) The pore compressibility of the sample, given that 0.2 cm of oil leaves the sample when a pressure of 3200 psig is applied on it iii) The amount of oil that can be extracted from the sample when a pressure of 2000 psig is applied on it
