    Effect of massive spring on static vs dynamic experiment

    I've been reading about this but I couldn't find a conclusive answer. I have to measure the spring constant (k) using a vertical spring-mass (M) configuration and using two different methods: - static method: I calculate elongation vs weight and find a linear fit of the data (the slope is K) -...

    Equation for the dynamic equilibrium

    1. Homework Statement Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution This is what I did: Since they said at equilibrium, the total no. of moles is (2+x), so P and Q should have 1 mol each at equilibrium. So P and Q are in 1:1 ratio, but how do they know x is 1 ? Ans is B

    Bellman Equation, Dynamic Programming, state vs control

    Hi, I am proficient in standard dynamic programming techniques. In the standard textbook reference, the state variable and the control variable are separate entities. However, I have seen examples in economics, in which a single variable, let's say consumption, is both a state variable and a...

    Dynamic pressure and pitot tube

    Hello, Normally a pitot tube points in the direction of airflow so that it measures static and dynamic airflow. If it points in the opposite direction my assumption is that it will not measure the dynamic pressure but will only measure the static pressure. Is this correct?

    Totally Hypothetical, probably incorrect, Shock Wave Generation Mechanism

    So I was sitting around pondering about forces, and I found myself thinking about shock-waves. Whether they're caused by supersonic travel, or explosions, the pressure at the front of the wave-bow shock pressure is a force. So I started thinking of a way to generate them without having to go...

    What type of pressure is used in industry? Static or dynamic?

    For example, in chemical plants, if a pressure gauge is on a pipe and it reads 5000 kPa, is this a static or total (static + dynamic) pressure reading? I am thinking it must be the total pressure. Would that mean that a pressure reading in this setting is both a measure of static pressure...
