    Tension force of a thread in a complex structure of six masless rods

    At first I tried solving the problemteh following way: Due to symmetry let the rods connected to the green rod have tension forces in magnitde T1 => mg = 2T1cos(a), where a is half the angle formed by the two rods. From tere I got an expression from the longer rods in the force projected by them...

    Any way to overload [ ] for vector of structure?

    I have been studying overloading [ ]. I understand how it works from the book. I experiment using vector of structure and obviously I can't make it work. I wonder if it is possible to overload [] on vector of structure. Here is what I have and it's not even close to working, what can I do to...

    Theoretical Possibility of a N-methyl Polymer Structure

    Out of sheer curiosity, would a polymer of the following structure be theoretically possible? Imagine that the "N-methyl" groups are just the bounds of what is shown, and not actual carbon-containing substituents... It doesn't seem to break any elementary bonding rules. However, the C-C bond...

    What is the structure of FOOOF and FOOOOF?

    FOOF looks like this: This paper suggests that FOOOF also exists but does not give a structure, although it does state that it's unlikely it takes the F-O-O-O-F structure. "Ignition: An informal history of liquid rocket propellants" claims that this series of compounds, up to FOOOOOOF, can...

    Springs, how they work, their coiled structure

    Hello! Springs are amazing devices: we take a straight piece of metal wire, we change its shape and get something that can compress or extended a finite length. We could not do that with the straight wire (too difficult to move atoms apart or close to each other in a significant way). Why does...

    How does an FCC structure have a coordination number of 12?

    Edit: nevermind, I realized my mistake. Corner atoms don't touch in FCC, so there's just 4 neighbours in each plane which sums to 12.

    Structure adding rotational stiffness to a plate

    I'm 3d-printing a part that is 110mm x 40mm (XY-plane). I have to keep it light weight, so I made it thin - 0.6mm (Z direction) and filled the surface with holes to remove as much weight as possible. Then I added a grid of 2,5 mm high "walls" in the XY directions to make it stiffer and a couple...

    I have a quesrion about forming the eqaution of moment equilibrium. As shown in the picture at cut 1 there are 2 vertical forces and a bending moment. I expect V=A. If I apply moment equilibrium about the point where the bending moment is, we get that Ay*x = M(1). But how about if I take moment...

    How Do Small Bangs Shape the Structure of Our Universe?

    I have a theory about how the universe came to be how it is -- with swirling galaxies.1) A big bang happens.2) Either many dense blobs (for lack of a better word) of mass go out in different directions, or a lot of mass grouping go out and then condense into such blobs.3) These blobs have...
