A subsurface exploration report shows that the average water content of a fine-grained soil in a proposed borrow area is 22% and that its average natural dry density is 82 pcf. This soil is to be placed in a compacted fill with a dry density specified at 96 pcf. How many cubic yards of borrow will be required to produce 50,000 yd3 of fill? What is the shrinkage factor for the borrow?

An engine, weighing 3000 n, is supported on a pedestal mount. it has been observed that the engine induces vibration into the surrounding area through its pedestal at the maximum operating speed. determine the stiffness of the dynamic vibration absorber spring in (n/m) that will reduce the vibration when mounted on the pedestal. the magnitude of the exciting force is 250 n, and the amplitude of motion of the auxiliary mass is to be limited to 2 mm note: in this question type-in right numbers, no decimals, no fractions, no unit. approximate to right number if needed
