Electric Circuit and Components

An electrical circuit or electrical network is a pre-determined pathway to make the electrons flow in the desired direction. The flow of electrons will set up a current flow in the circuit. Normally, the flow of electrical current is opposite to the flow of electrons. An electron is a fundamental sub-atomic particle of an atom possessing a negative charge. To initiate the flow of current and achieve the desired output, the electrical circuit should necessarily be composed of closed pathways. The pathways are made-up of good conductors of electricity such as aluminium and copper.

You are working on a concrete mix design that requires each cubic yard ofconcrete to have 0.45 water–cement ratio, 1165 kg/m3of dry gravel, 4% aircontent, and 335 kg/m3of cement. The available gravel has a specific gravity of Ggravel = 2.7, a moisture content of 1.6%, and absorption of 2.4%. The available sand has a specific gravity of Gsand = 2.5, a moisture content of 4.8%, and absorption of 1.5%. For each cubic meter of concrete needed on the job, calculate the mass of cement, moist gravel, moist sand, and water that should be added to the batch. Summarize and total the mix design when finished (don’t include air entrainer in summary).
Design a non-air-entrained concrete mix for a small job with a nominal maxi-mum gravel size of 19 mm. Show the results as follows: a. mass of components to produce 2263 kg of concreteb. volumes of components to produce 1 m3 of concrete
The design of a concrete mix requires 1173 kg/m3of gravel in dry condition,582 kg/m3of sand in dry condition, and 157 kg/m3of free water. The gravelavailable at the job site has a moisture content of 0.8% and absorption of1.5%, and the available sand has a moisture content of 1.1% and absorptionof 1.3%. What are the masses of gravel, sand, and water per cubic meter thatshould be used at the job site?

You want to increase the sustainability of a concrete mixture by replacing 35% of the portland cement by mass with a locally available natural pozzolan that can be used in place of ordinary portland cement (CEMPOZZ). The quantity of cement in the concrete mixture is 620 lb/yd3. You can assume that the specific gravity of portland cement and CEMPOZZ are the same for this problem. What is the quantity of CEMPOZZ for the mixture? Round to the nearest whole number and do not include units when entering your answer.
