From example 26, How much rimpull is available to do work and why? (Please show all work as best as possible and type out anything that you would like to clearly articulate)

The process of calculating the quantity of materials required to build a project is called Quantify Survey or material take-off.

What is commonly referred to as the time value of money is the value difference between funds borrowed and spent today and the amount to be repaid at a future date.

ABC Inc. purchases a loader to use at its asphalt plant.  The purchase price delivered is $326,000. Tires for this machine cost $26,000.  ABC Inc. believes it can sell the loader after 6 years (2,800 hr/yr) of service for $75,000.  ABC Inc.’s cost-of-capital is 6.31%. What is the depreciation part of this machine’s ownership cost? Use time value method to calculate depreciation.

What is the project delivery method used when the Owner/Client supplies plans and specifications, the Contractor states price based on complete design by the owner/client, and the work is awarded on a bid basis?

For major earthwork project, it is good economy to provide graders, water trucks, and even rollers to keep the haul road in good condition?

The maximum and minimum points on the mass diagram, where the curve transitions from rising to falling or from falling to rising, indicate a change from an excavation to a fill situation or vice versa. These points are referred as transition points.

The haul road from the borrow pit to the fill has an adverse grade of 6%. Wheel type hauling units will be used on the job, and it is expected that the haul-road rolling resistance will be 100 lb per ton.  What will be the effective grade for the haul?

Label this question as Q-UNK on your paper.  6 min. You must show your work as done in class.  Show starting equations and all work.  Use correct sig figs and units.  Circle final answer on paper. C = Carbon = 12.011 g/mol N = Nitrogen = 14.007 g/mol H = Hydrogen = 1.008 g/mol O = Oxygen = 15.999 g/mol An unknown drug compound is found to consist of 57.14% C,  27.21% O, 9.52% N, and 6.16% H by mass. A)  Using the information above, determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound?  You must use the method that was used in lecture to perform this calculation.  Show all your work.  Use correct sig figs and units. B)  Using your answer in Part A and the fact that the molecular weight of the compound was determined to be 589.01 g/mol, find the molecular formula for this unknown.  Again you must show your work as demonstrated in class including starting equations.  Place all final answers here with the appropriate letter and upload your work to the exam dropbox for grading.
