QUESTION 4 [10 MARKS] (a) The warning sign is designed to withstand a maximum wind speed of 80 km / h at sea level. Calculate the total force on a signboard 8 m by 2 m. Assuming wind is flowing perpendicular to the face of the signage.

(b) Compute the range of volume flow rate kerosene at 25°C for which the flow would be in the critical region in a DN80 (2 in) Schedule 40 Pipe and DN80 (3 in) ductile iron pipe.

the following data represent the maximum wind speed (in knots) and atmospheric pressure (in millibars) for a random sample of 20 hurricanes that originated over the Atlantic Ocean in the last decade. A table of summary statistics for this data (as calculated in Homework 9) is also provided below. In Homework 9, we determined the equation of the least-squares regression line: and also calculated the estimated standard error of the model: Use the information given above to complete the following...

4. A cars thermostat system is designed to trigger a warning light to signal the driver if the temperature of the engine coolant reaches above 100 C. This warning light should turn on when it receives a 5V signal output voltage from a comparator. Under normal operating conditions, the coolant temperature fluctuates by 5C. Assume that the thermostat electronics system has a transfer function of 25 mV/C. Design a comparator that will warn the driver if the engine temperature is...
