Hey Im doing FEA and got stuck on question. The diagram go me stuck, because looking through the workbook it says high stresses are in red and low in blue, whereas they included both different kind of stresses on the same diagram and no data. Note: High Compressive strains are noted by blue...

the steel glass is stuck diagonally inside the press cooker, getting it out by brute foce didn't work and neither are we able to rotate it. Washing it with soapy liquid didn't work either. Any ideas on how I can get the glass out?

I'm aware that I can introduce the perimeter p = dy/dx then I can rearrange my equation to make y the subject, then I can show that dp/dx = p/x. However, this only gives me a bunch of quadratic curves for my solution. However given part b I see that two curves are meant to intersect each point...

I know how to construct Sy for spin = 1 case from the raising and lowering operators. I get $$ S_y=\frac{i\hbar}{\sqrt{2}}\begin{pmatrix} 0 & -1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & -1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ \end{pmatrix} $$ From what I have seen, the eigenspinor for $\hbar$ is found by solving $$...

Hi, Unfortunately, I have problems with the task 4 In task 3 I got the following $$ T_f=T_ie^{\Delta S_i - c_i} $$ Then I proceeded as follows $$ \Delta S = \Delta S_1 + \Delta S_1 $$ $$ \Delta S =c_1ln(\frac{T_ie^{\Delta S_i - c_i}}{T_1})+c_2ln(\frac{T_f}{T_2})$$ $$ \Delta S...

I'm stuck to understand 3 laws of Newton. It doesn't make sense to me. 1. Suppose the case when a person stay in a rest vehicle.When we accelerate the car the person still at rest so the person has to move to the tail of the vehicle cause his intertia of staying rest. If we decrese the...

The equality is implied in the move from equation 15.43 line 2 to line 3. I do find Dray's book is admirably clear and absolutely says something I wish to understand, but my 78 year old brain has difficulty. However, in this case I can be precise about where I fail to follow. Oh! I find...

i tried but i wasn't able, maybe i choose the wrong formulas in the wrong time.

Some more details on the system are that L1 is very long (close to 100ft) and L2 is close to 30ft (the vertical pipes). The piping is all schedule 40 1/2" OD. Moment of inertia is roughly 10^-8. Components are about 2kg each. The distance of the pipes horizontally is small (around 2ft). Pressure...

This is where I'm stucked i don't even know if my reasoning is correct.

I tried solving this and realized that I have no idea what r2 is and I can't just insert an equation there

I am very confused on how to go about with this question. The only thing I've tried so far is drawing the fbd of the electron and because of the plates the force applied would cancel which makes it centered between the two plates. As of now that is the only thing I understand, I am not sure how...

I don't get why the total mechanical energy is not conserved in this situation. When the length of the spring reaches the maximum, the speed of the block is 0 and we have the following equation: $$E=K+U=1/2mv^2+1/2kA^2,\text{where A is the amplitude} \implies E=1/2kx_{max}^2$$ I can't see why...

Does any researcher/scholar/professor here ever feel stuck with the field they have chosen to pursue? Do you ever feel it's too late to switch or regret not choosing something else while studying?

I know this is the equation I have to use a(x - h) 2 + k, but don't know what points to use and how to covert to vertex form

Please someone help me

Actually, i don't even started the solution because i am confused, i am not sure what the question is asking, i tried to see the solution, but it was using , i don't know what that equation mean. Can you help me? P is like potential electricity, for gravitational force?

My professor does not walk us through the problem. He literally just gave us an equation and that's it. I do not know how to do this problem.

I got stuck when i eliminated the parameter.

I am trying to show that given the following stochastic differential equation: ##\dot{x} = W(x(\tau))+\eta(\tau),## we have ##det|\frac{d\eta(\tau)}{dx(\tau')}| = exp^{\int_{0}^{T}d\tau \,Tr \ln([\frac{d}{d\tau}-W'(x(\tau))]\delta (\tau - \tau'))} = exp^{\frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{T}d\tau...

Hi, I have been trying to solve question A for a while now but keep getting stuck. Would anyone know what to do after this? My teacher told me that maybe I should try using the elastic limit (in part b) but normally if I had needed it, it would have been in the first part of the question.

I'm stuck on a few Vector homework problems. I don't quite understand how to write vectors A+B and A-B for questions 1b and 2b. I tried starting with calculating the magnitude for vector A+B on question 1b and then followed by finding theta, but I'm not sure if that's what I'm supposed to do...

Hi, I've been following the derivation of wolfram mathworld for this problem and I'm running into some trouble regarding the summation indices. Currently I am at the step where we have found that (it's pretty much just binomial expansion and taylor series to get to this point) $$ f(x) =...
