What are the advantages and disadvantages of using CMM? 3) Accurate dimensions can be obtained just by knowing the coordinates and distance between the two reference points. 4) Robustness against external force and error accumulation. Disadvantages: 1) The Coordinate measuring machines are very costly. 2) The CMMs are less portable. What are the advantages and […]
What does a hot wire anemometer measure?
What does a hot wire anemometer measure? A hot-wire anemometer is a thermal transducer which has been widely used to measure instantaneous flow velocity. The use of the hot-wire anemometer permits instantaneous flow velocity to be calculated from electric voltage measurements. How does hot wire anemometer measure flow velocity? Definition: The Hot Wire Anemometer is […]
What causes buckling of columns?
What causes buckling of columns? When the applied load reaches the Euler load, sometimes called the critical load, the column comes to be in a state of unstable equilibrium. At that load, the introduction of the slightest lateral force will cause the column to fail by suddenly “jumping” to a new configuration, and the column […]
What is method of superposition?
What is method of superposition? Basically, a complex beam with its loading is simplified to a series of basic beams (one span) and with only one load. Then the solution to all the simplified beams are added together to give a final solution. What is I in beam deflection formula? To calculate the deflection of […]
What temperature can carbon steel withstand?
What temperature can carbon steel withstand? 750°F Can you heat treat low carbon steel? Conclusions. 1. Heat treatment (quenching and tempering) of low carbon steel increases the yield point by 30–35% and the resistance to rupture 25–30%, but decreases the plasticity, particularly when the carbon concentration is low. What can low carbon steel be used […]
Which irrigation method conserves the most water?
Which irrigation method conserves the most water? Drip System Drip irrigation Which type of irrigation is the most efficient? Drip irrigation Which irrigation method is most sustainable? drip irrigation What are the 4 types of irrigation? The different types of irrigation include- sprinkler irrigation, surface irrigation, drip irrigation, sub-irrigation and manual irrigation. What are the […]
What is metal solidification?
What is metal solidification? Solidification of Metals 1. During solidification, the liquid changes in to solid during cooling. 2. The energy of liquid is less than that of the solid above the melting point. This transformation of liquid into solid below melting point is known as solidification. Where do we use solidification process? Solidification processing […]
What are red blue and yellow colors called?
What are red blue and yellow colors called? RYB Why are red blue and yellow called primary Colours? “When artists’ paints are mixed together, some light is absorbed, making colors that are darker and duller than the parent colors. Painters’ subtractive primary colors are red, yellow and blue. These three hues are called primary because […]
What is the exact opposite point on Earth?
What is the exact opposite point on Earth? By definition, the North Pole and the South Pole are antipodes. There are no non-stop scheduled flights between any two antipodal locations by commercial airline service. What is on the opposite side of the planet? The antipode, or opposite point, of pretty much anywhere in the continental […]
Is rhyolite light or dark?
Is rhyolite light or dark? Rhyolite is a fine-grained extrusive igneous rock or volcanic rock. It is pale coloured, often light grey, tan or pinkish. Rhyolite is made up of quartz and feldspar crystals, and occasionally contains some mafic (dark coloured) minerals. Which has a lower density rhyolite or basalt? Rhyolite has a lower density […]
