What connects the wheels to the suspension and steering system? A rod, called a tie rod, connects to each end of the rack. The pinion gear is attached to the steering shaft. When you turn the steering wheel, the gear spins, moving the rack. The tie rod at each end of the rack connects to […]

How do you calculate years in compound interest? A = P(1 + r/n)nt A = Accrued Amount (principal + interest) P = Principal Amount. I = Interest Amount. R = Annual Nominal Interest Rate in percent. r = Annual Nominal Interest Rate as a decimal. r = R/100. t = Time Involved in years, 0.5 […]

What is an encrypted message? It’s free and available for iOS, Android, Windows, and select other device platforms. End-to-end encryption protects data sent through the app, and users can verify the “key” of the user sending or receiving to ensure people are who they say they are and the messages are being sent securely. What […]

What is an expert system what are the characteristics of an expert system? Characteristics of an expert system: One expert system may contain knowledge from more than one human experts thus making the solutions more efficient. It decreases the cost of consulting an expert for various domains such as medical diagnosis. They use a knowledge […]

What is critical depth in open channel flow? The concept of critical depth is conventionally defined in open-channel hydraulics (Chow 1959; Montes 1998; Chanson 2004) as the depth at which the specific energy reaches a minimum value, considering the mean specific energy Hm within the whole flow section in flows with parallel streamlines. How is […]

How do you use a punch tool? To use a punch tool such as this, a worker presses the sharp end against a workpiece, after which he or she hits the blunt end with a hammer or mallet. When the hammer or mallet hits the punch tool, the tool’s sharp end will cut into the […]

What is 9600 baud rate? 9600 bits per second How do you calculate bit rate and baud rate? Bit rate is the transmission of number of bits per second. On the other hand, Baud rate is defined as the number of signal units per second. The formula which relates both bit rate and baud rate […]

What is a open zone when driving? open zone. a space where you can drive free of restrictions to your line of sight or path of travel. space cushion. area of space around the vehicle that is free of restriction, hazards, and conflicts when you use it. What are the five margins that are important […]

What is the typical composition of solder? The most popular combination is 60% tin, 39% lead, and 1% alloys. This combination is strong, has a low melting range, and melts and sets quickly. A higher tin composition gives the solder higher corrosion resistances, but raises the melting point. What is the composition of lead-free solder? […]

Is a joule equal to one newton meter? One joule equals the work done (or energy expended) by a force of one newton (N) acting over a distance of one meter (m). One newton equals a force that produces an acceleration of one meter per second (s) per second on a one kilogram (kg) mass. […]
