I’m trying to compressed a folder containing a combination of sub-folders and individual files. All the files are Word documents. I’m having to rename some of the sub-folders as I’ve become aware that some characters have to be avoided. For example, MS have told me that apostrophes have to be...

OK, an actual codec has been detailed using AI. It performs well, although the modern Codec VVC is superior in some circumstances. Can we do better with an entirely AI codec? We will assume our source is in a standard format used for mastering: Apple Pros-res 10-bit 4:4:4 at 50 frames per...

part d- ii and iii ii) my answer is 300-140/300 *100 ke at y = 300 and spring energy at max compression is 140 iii) e is directly proportional to x^2 so it increases exponentially is my explanation correct?

With a real inert gas (i.e. nitrogen N2) being compressed in a piston-like configuration, I'd like to estimate the peak pressure and peak temperature at the instant the gas is brought to full compression. Initial pressure and initial temperature (in the uncompressed state) are known: typically...

Hi I have the answer to the dictionary compression question- but can't understand the following in the notes: Instead, the word could be added to a dictionary and assigned the binary code 01 which is a reduction of 38 bits for each occurrence - what does this mean? This is the extract in...

A cylindrical tube (diameter = D, width = L) is completely filled with a liquid (density = ρ). A pump pressurizes the system with a pressure P. Consequently, 1) the solid tube is compressed and deformed according to Hooke's law (σ = ε.E), and 2) the liquid is compressed and deformed, following...

It takes energy to compress an ideal gas, and that same amount of energy is output as heat. But we also gain the potential energy of the compressed gas. It seems to me that we are doubling up our energy. Can anybody explain in simple, practical terms (to a humble mech engineer) how this works...

The equation I know for adiabatic work is W = P1V1((V1/V2)ϒ-1 - 1))/ϒ-1, but this involves ϒ, but I can use ϒ = Cp/Cv = Cv+R/Cv = 1 + Cv/R, does this seem correct? But I still have a P1

Hello all, I am looking for some design ideas. I need to do some compression testing and here is my testing platens: The platens are small (5mm*5 mm) and my samples are even smaller with the cross section of 3mm*2.4mm, so it would be difficult to both position them within the platens and align...

My doubts are as follows-: -> Why frame n is not segmented to blocks? -> Why no inputs from (n-1) side for block matching? -> What do we do in prediction error coding? Source-: https://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/rbf/CVonline/LOCAL_COPIES/AV0506/s0561282.pdf I have read this many times but that...

Hi, I use the equation above to isolate N(x), I get ##N = -\int_0^x qdx## I don't know how to get the value of q. The dimensionnal analysis give me : ## q = \frac{\rho g S x}{L}##, but I'm not sure. Thanks for your help !

I've tried establishing a systems of equations with -(1/2)kx^2+mpgx+(1/2)mpvp^2=0, but this leads to an annoying quadratic that when solved does not give one of the listed answers. My thought was that the spring's potential energy is going to be equal to the gravitational potential energy and...

Hi, reading the interesting Reversible vs Irreversible Gas Compression and Expansion Work insight by @Chestermiller I would like to ask for clarification on some points. In the second bullet at the beginning my understanding is as follows: consider an ideal gas contained in a cylinder...

I feel like I've gotten stuck on this. I know the work done is equal to the kinetic energy of block A, but I can't figure out how I would find the potential energy stored in the spring without using the spring constant in the equation. W = FA * dA + U

Thought experiment: (1.1) You have a homogenous object, made of one element, floating in space. (1.2) Gravity has completed the process of accelerating its atoms and molecules into the final state, such that the object is a crystalline sphere. (1.3) Gravity continues to act on the object, even...

I wonder how to accurately perform data compression on the m x n matrix X using PCA. Each row is a data point, and each column is a feature. So m data points with n features. If I like to go k < n dimensions, how is the correct way of doing so? How to I accurately create the matrix W_k, which...

In private discussions, another member @burian and I have been discussing why, in compression and expansion of a gas, the work can be calculated from ##W=\int{P_{ext}dV}##. We thought it would be of value to open the discussion to the full membership. Burian last asked about: When the...

Summary:: Hello all, I need help with this question, ill attach the equations i managed to solve. How do i continue from there?

If I a have a gas confined in a certain initial volume Vin at a certain pressure Pin and at a certain temperature Tin, and istantaneously compress it down to a final volume Vfin < Vin, how do I calculate the increase in temperature? Assume I know the exact pressure curve (P vs. V). The system...

I am trying to understand the reaction of a steel coil compression spring when pulsed. The spring I am interested in has the following physical characteristics: k (spring constant in pounds per inch) = 2.88 d (wire diameter in inches) = .043 n (number of active coils) = 29 D (mean diameter of...

Hi all, I'm studying the compression spring design issue that occurred in a machine design application. As illustrated below, spring is bouncing or oscillating after impact to a stopping surface (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4) and eventually stop after few bounces. Ideal case for this application is to...

Hi all, For an Isothermal compression process of air in a vessel with constant volume, I found the following expressions and and The first two give the same result, meanwhile the third gives another solution and I don't know why. For adiabatic compression I found these two expression which...

Hi, all. The top beam is subjected to uniformly distributed load. FYI, the column is 5m in length. As you can see, the major axis of column is connected to the beam with moment connection on top. However, in the minor axis of column, there's nothing to connecting them.For the major axis, the...

Summary:: I'm stuck on a year 2 mechanics question. I have this simplified crankshaft with a load P at the end. The solutions to the exercise have said that point A is in compression due to a bending moment but I don't understand why that is. The solutions and my calculations have both come out...

First I wanted to find the kinetic energy the mass had when it hit the spring (converted from the potential Energy it had) thus Ek=mgh=9.8*2.6*3.5=89.18 Now I know as this Ek changes to 0 the potential energy of the spring as its being compressed will be at its maximum so, Ek=Ep...

Summary:: What does I need to consider in order to get the right spring? Hello. I need a compression spring that require 10 lbs of force in order to be compressed 1cm. The springs outer diameter (De) has to be 1cm. The spring will be made out of piano wire. Which values of specification does...

The question is: If the compression ratio of car engines is increased by 10% (from 10 to 11), estimate the volume reduction in annual CO2 emission. Assume there are 30 million cars each consuming one cubic meter of fuel annually. The question is looking for a rough estimate for an answer. I...

The answer learned in class is that the two 2*4s are able to distribute the load over both of them, but I don't think this is an actual answer because that's balanced by the fact that each block is half the area. Does anyone know of the reason for this observation? Thanks!

In 1982 I was given a ZX Spectrum by a Timex employee. It was one of only three English units that had been converted to NTSC from PAL. They worked for Timex but had their own company on the side to write software for the Timex computer and for the spectrum They hired me to do the title screen...

When I did this the first time I didn't really think too much about it, so I just wrote$$p = \frac{nRT}{V} \implies W = \Delta U - Q = - Q = -\int_{\frac{4}{3}\pi r_0^3}^{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3} \frac{nRT}{V} dV$$That turned out to be correct, but when I thought about it I didn't understand why this...

Let the length of the spring be ##x##, so that the extension in any given configuration is ##\delta = |x_0 - x|##. The magnetic flux through such a coil is $$\Phi = \frac{\mu_0 I N^2 A}{x}$$The fact that the coil is superconducting means that the flux linked will always remain constant even with...

See this figure: The rod is put at first between A and B shims without comprehension, suddenly a force is applied at R from an axis as the figure points. Find Fa and Fb. (the figure is a look from above) This can be solved by consider the "constant elastic" of the shims equal, but my...

I did some calculations for the ground state energy and wave function of a system of two electrons put in a finite-depth 2D potential well. Regardless of the shape of the potential well (square or circular), the expectation value of the electron-electron distance ##\langle r_{12}\rangle =...

https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.10074 The paper finds that one can reduce the number of qubits to a constant (just one works) used in the last, modular exponential register of the variants of Shor's algorithm, used to factor integers and find discrete logarithms, by applying a universal hash...

This is a relatively simple problem, but I'm not getting the right answer. For adiabatic compression, work on gas is positive, since work on gas = ΔEth and the adiabatic process moves from a lower isotherm to a higher one. Integrating for work gives: pV * (Vf(1 - gamma) - Vi(1 -...

Hi Guys, Forgive me, as it has been quite sometime since I have done my spring theory. The problem I am having is the following: This is the current situation: - In a steel block I have a pocket depth of 15mm - I have a compression spring with the following information: Outside diameter is...

Hello Everyone, As some of you know, there are airsoft guns which work with a spring and piston mechanism. An electric motor drives a semicircle gear and that gear drives a rack gear connected to piston. When the gear compresses the spring and reaches semicircle’s free end the piston...

Lets say we got a larger cylinder-piston combo and a smaller one. First we move the larger cylinder, filling in with vacuum. Then we pump in air, using the smaller cylinder, isothermally, with variable expansion ratio. Here, we clearly have exp ratio > P_atm/P_final We then compress the larger...

I found the amplitude of the simple harmonic motion that results (0.367, and I know this is correct because I entered it and it was marked as a correct answer), and assumed it would be the same value for the maximum compression since x(t) = Acos(wt). And, since the maximum value of cosine is 1...

I found the below lines : Could you please explain the above lines?

I'm having a little trouble with part a) of this question: Since it is stated that the heating is slow, I thought it was reasonable to assume the process is reversible which means that the pressure in both sides should be equal. Consequently, $$W = - \int_{V_{0}}^{V_{1}} P dV = -...

1/2 m v2 + mgh = 1/2 k x2 1/2 (5) (9) + (5) (9.81) x = 1/2 (200) x2 100 x2 - 49.05 x - 22.5 = 0 x = 0.779 m or x = - 0.289 m Answer key says the answer is 0.289 m but in my opinion the answer should be 0.799 m because I take h = 0 at the position where the spring has maximum compression so...

Hello Pressure by P2=P1*V1/P2 which comes out to 10 Bar Density by P/Rd/T which comes out to 12,09 Kg/M3 according to the homework equation T2 would equal 144K, but if you compress air does it not heat up?

Hello! I am stuck on part of a problem and was wondering what I am doing wrong. For part a of the problem, we were asked to find the impact speed. I did this in a photo below given the following values: Θ = 30 degrees. The initial velocity = 10 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.4...

Hi everyone, just a quick question.. I tried this problem using Newtons laws, not conservation of energy, and I got an answer exactly half of what the correct answer is, and I'm not sure why. Here is what I did: Net force = zero once the spring is compressed, therefore mg - kx = 0 mg = kx...

This is simply a top of the head idea that seems kinda cool but I don't really know what it could be good for. My idea was, would it be possible through the use of magnetic pressure can a metal be reduced to a slag or almost liquid like state? I know that more than likely it isn't possible due...
