You are mixing an asphalt concrete mixture, following superpave, and have started at a binder content of 5%. your boss has told you to use 1.023 for the binder specific gravity. after mixing and compacting, you measure the bulk specific gravity to be 2.441 and somehow hit the magic number of 4% air. by the way, the bulk specific gravity of the aggregate is 2.755. how much binder was absorbed into the aggregate? show all steps. do not use excel for this question.

Ahouse has the following electrical appliance usage (1) single 40w lamp used for 4 hours per day (2) single 60w fan used for 12 hours per day (3) single 200w refrigerator that runs 24 hours per day with compressor run 12 hours and off 12 hours find the solar power inverter size in watt with correction factor of 1.25.

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
