Rise Definition and 274 Threads

For high Rise Buildings,say above 30 floors,wind energy could be too ample to be wasted. So what kind of study has to be carried out in order to know the feasibility of installing Wind turbine above a building? What will determine the power output of this turbine?

Supposing you had a cylindrical closed tank inside the body of a submarine; the top of the tank is at 200m depth. The tank has height 2.5m and internal volume 1.8m^3. A section of pipework is connected between the top surface of the submersible (level with the top of the tank) and to the...

Hi guys, Heard an interview question from a friend, the guy asked him what happens to a disk with internal radius r and external R such as the following: When heated. He told me the answer is that the internal radius gets smaller and the external gets bigger. Can anyone help me understand why...

When we think about first world nations and world leaders in politics, ethics, economics, and science, we think of Western nations that are built on democracy, human rights, and freedom. But now we are facing a new situation where the prospective new world leader will spread its influence while...

Yes, yes I did my homework - I googled this and got many results but none seem to answer my query. I am not a historian so bear with me. I had a picture in my mind that civilizations seem to appear after we discovered agriculture and thereafter each civilization advanced and continued to...

In optimising the PID controller produced on Simulink, my controller has a step voltage of 100V and I am not sure if the rise time is the point where the response curve first reaches (or crosses)this point, or if it is the point where it hits the first overshoot peak?

So for a class I am designing a solar dehydrator and I want to know how fast the hot air will rise out of the dehydrator. For calculation purposes assume the hot air is 120°F @ 30% relative humidity (23 g/m3) and rising through a tube (if necessary assume the tube is 4 in. in diameter), the...

Homework Statement "A body of mass m, moving with velocity v, collides with a body of mass 2m at rest, in a head-on collision. The coefficient of restitution is 1/3. If the 2m body has a specific heat c, and if it is assumed that the two bodies share the heat generated in the collision equally...

1 - how does water rise to form clouds if oxygen is heavier than nitrogen? when it turns into a gas its hydrogen and oxygen---why does it rise (to form clouds) if oxygen is heavier than nitrogen, which makes up 78% of the Earth's atmosphere? *please note that I'm not confused as to the...

The DAMA experiment is again asserting detection of dark matter in the galactic halo. An earlier similar claim by the DAMA group was hotly contested several years ago. The new release, DAMA/LIBRA results and perspectives - http://arxiv.org/abs/1301.6243, resurrects the same claim of annual...

Homework Statement Part 1: I have a cylinder of radius R and lengh L. At first i can assume that we have expansion in both R and L. And that i can use the linear thermal expansion coefficient(\alpha) = 4 \times 10^{-6}. The relative change in R and L is 1 \times 10^{-4}, and from that i have...

As the title states, can anyone help me understand what the difference between the two is? I've been trying to look everywhere but nothing really explains why they're different. I just thought it would be the same. This is based on the capillary rise method for surface tension.

Hello, I am currently working on a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) system whose volume is approximately 115 to 120 liters. As you can assume, there are a lot of ports in the chamber but a lot of them are windows or blanks (2.75, 4.5 and 6 inch). Significant ports (possible sources of leaks...

Is there a formula for this? if object is 300m deep, 30m in diameter, 50,000kg, in a ball shape how long will it take to reach surface?

Will they rise slow and gradual allowing for a somewhat seamless transition of population to higher ground, or will there one day be a large storm that will inundate an area permanently? What are the implications for the gulf coast, South Florida, and the East Coast? How will vital...

"Information field" giving rise to quantum mechanics. Hello. I stumbled upon a video on youtube where quantum entanglement is discussed (). A woman quotes Einstein: "There is no place in this new kind of physics for the field and matter, for the field is the only reality." What did Einstein...

We all think that by increasing the temp of a liquid, the surface tension would reduce and so capillary rise will not be as high. But on increasing the temp, the liquid's density also decreases and so the weight of liquid to be lifted also reduces. Which will have the dominating effect, decrease...

Homework Statement I need to find a system rise time (from 10% to 90%) using matlab. Is this code right? The Attempt at a Solution sys = tf(num, den); y= step(sys, t); tr1 = max(find(y<0.1)); tr2 = min(find(y>0.9)); rise_time = t(tr2) - t(tr2); Is this seems to be right?

Hello, I'd like to get some more accurate idea of entropy in general: dS=\int\frac{dQ}{T} Given an adiabatic isolated system. Work is irrerversible done onto this system. Entropy will rise because of the fact that some of the work is transformed into irreversible losses and therefore...

Hi, I did a pressure rise test on a chamber, where I closed the isolation valve and measured the increase in pressure over 30 seconds. I want to use this information to calcualte the rate of accumulation of vapour in the chamber. What I'm looking for is the sublimation rate during freeze...

If a small tube (capillary tube) is dipped into the water, the water level rises. Which means someone is doing work on the water to rise it against gravity. My question is, who is doing this work? My guess is the internal energy of the molecules is doing the work. That also means that...

Does the water approach the maximum height in a capillary tube with 0 velocity?I mean to say that does it go to the maximum height and just stop or perform simple harmonic motion ?Water is in equilibrium but velocity need not be 0 or is it(why?).The expression we derive for h should be for...

I can understand how can inflation give rise to the isotropy of the CMB, but that it can give rise also to the irregularities in the CMB...!? Please, can anyone explain me this? thanks.

Hello, Recently I have learned that magnetism causes the Lorentz force. The electric force makes sense to me in terms of virtual photons. But how do virtual photons give rise to magnetism and the Lorentz force. Is it because when the charged particle moves through an magnetic field it comes...

ok this was a problem in my book and the answer apparently is 29N. I have the diagram and pictures below. I know that the pivot point will be the edge of the block that is touching the outside of the wheel. When the wheel is in equilibrium the sum of the torque will=zero so i can set up the...

Hello everyone. I'm working on a video-game that takes place on a distant Earth like planet. A key part of the gameplay revolves around a special day and night cycle. I'd like this planet to be tidally locked to it's red dwarf star making it's habitable zone limited to the terminator. Of...

My 21' above ground pool in northeast Ohio freezes each winter. There is 52" of water in it now and that is 3" below the wall caps. I usually don't have it this full, but we've had a LOT of rain lately. I was told to drain some water out of it so that the rising ice will not destroy the top...

In the past, Bohmians are a minority and more of a curiosity or side show and even now although it's getting more popular. But thinking it over and over. The alternatives are quite stranger. In Copenhagen for example. Do you actually believe that the interferences don't actually occur physically...
