So in my physics class this last semester, we learned about normal force, weight and centripetal acceleration and all that good stuff. So i got to thinking about a ball on a string being spun around my head and i got to thinking about the force diagram you would draw for that, and obviously you...
the same could be said for you.
Who do you think does water treatment? None of the colleges I looked at offer a degree in water treatment engineering.
Chemical engineers are involved in building more efficient solar panels, batteries, filtration systems as well as the development of...
Why not chemical engineering? I work as a lab tech at a large geo analytical facility for a mining company at night while working towards my mining engineering degree during the day. We have a lot of chemists that work here, all of them either have gone back to get engineering degrees or wish...
I apologize for getting off topic but this was a subject I thought I understood and am now realizing my knowledge might be more flawed than previously thought.'
first, I realize now I should have used the term "local ambient pressure" instead of "atmospheric pressure.
Now all of your responses...
Could you explain why the vacuum wouldn't eliminate the need to apply heat to evaporate or boil water? From my limited understanding of water, boiling point is just when the gas molecules reach the temperature required to overcome atmospheric pressure and escape the liquid.
With firearms, cmapring different bullet weights in the same caliber, the heavier will penetrate more, even though it is moving slower. For example, a 158gr(that's grain, not sure what it is in grams) will travel at approximately 1400fps will a 125 gr slug will travel at 1600 fps. The 158 will...
Would it have an effect on the max velocity of the bullet? yes, but it would be negligible when talking about the effectiveness of the round. Even if you were in a car going 80 mph and shot a bullet directly behind you (or in front of you) it would be negligible in all but the slowest rounds.
F=MA
Force = mass x Acceleration (in this scenario, deceleration)
M=350kg
A= (120km/h)/3s = 11.1 m/s^2
F= (350kg )11.1m/s^2
= 3889N
Now that's the total force from the car stopping from 120kph to 0 in 3 s. How it gets distributed throughout the suspension, I wouldn't be able to tell you.
Contrary to what has been said it is not true that compression does not increase strength in certain substances, and that adding stress will only bring a substance closer failure. Pre stressed concrete is a perfect example of a substance that gains strength from compression. If you are...
