What is group technology and cellular manufacturing? Group Technology exploits the similarity between component parts, by grouping them into part families that have similarities in their shape, and therefore require the same manufacturing operations. These are known as manufacturing “cells”, that can perform most or all of the operations required by a part family. In […]
How many pounds of thrust does a 2.5 hp outboard motor have?
How many pounds of thrust does a 2.5 hp outboard motor have? 55 lbs Is thrust the same as horsepower? The difference between Thrust and Horsepower Explained First, pounds of thrust is a static force measurement while horsepower is 550 ft-pounds of work per second, a measurement per unit time. So every 746 watts is […]
What would cause a percent yield to be over 100?
What would cause a percent yield to be over 100? The percent yield is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage. However, percent yields greater than 100% are possible if the measured product of the reaction contains impurities that cause its mass to be greater than it actually […]
What does atomic force microscopy measure?
What does atomic force microscopy measure? 3.7 Atomic-Force Microscopy AFM is used to measure and localize many forces, including adhesion strength, magnetic forces, and mechanical properties. AFM is performed using a sharp tip about 10–20 nm in diameter attached to a cantilever. Why is the atomic force microscope important to scientists? AFM is a very […]
How does physical inactivity contribute to heart disease?
How does physical inactivity contribute to heart disease? How does physical inactivity increase the risk of heart and circulatory diseases? Being inactive can lead to fatty material building up in your arteries (the blood vessels that carry blood to your organs). If the arteries that carry blood to your heart get damaged and clogged, it […]
What is the probability that two people in a group will have the same birthday in a non leap year?
What happens after ultimate tensile strength?
What happens after ultimate tensile strength? However, once the tensile strength is exceeded, the test specimen begins to thin down, or neck, at some location along the length. All of the rest of the deformation to failure occurs at this point as the stress is concentrated in this area of reduced cross section. Why does […]
How do you calculate bearings to choose?
How do you calculate bearings to choose? Bearing Rating Life Calculation C = Dynamic Capacity (dN or Lbs) P = Equivalent Bearing Load (N or Lbs) N = Rotating speed in RPM. e = 3.0 for ball bearings, 10/3 for roller bearings. What bearing type will not accept radial loads? Ball Thrust Bearing Ball thrust […]
