What is a strong argument? Definition: A strong argument is a non-deductive argument that succeeds in providing probable, but not conclusive, logical support for its conclusion. A weak argument is a non-deductive argument that fails to provide probable support for its conclusion. What is inductive argument examples? An example of inductive logic is, “The coin […]
What remains constant during a steady flow process?
What remains constant during a steady flow process? steady state, the properties at any point in the system are steady in time, but may vary from one point to another point. The temperature at the inlet, whatever its value, remains constant in time in a steady flow process. Is mass flow always constant? For flow […]
What is the first thing you set up before sketching in SolidWorks?
What is the first thing you set up before sketching in SolidWorks? Click the Line command to begin sketching. It is important to make use of the origin, especially in your first sketch, in order to fully define the sketch. Left-click the origin and release to place the first point of the line on it. […]
What will happen if height of capillary tube is less than capillary rise?
What will happen if height of capillary tube is less than capillary rise? When length of tube is less than the height of capillary rise, the liquid molecules on reaching top of the capillary come into contact with horizontal surface of the tube. The surface tension becomes horizontal. Thus an equilibrium is established, and the […]
What causes a ballooned oil filter?
What causes a ballooned oil filter? The valve contains a spring that allows just enough oil to bypass the system and return to the sump or oil pan to maintain system pressure. If the valve is stuck closed, engine oil pressures would rise. This closed valve could result in high oil pressure and a ballooned […]
What is a class 1 lever?
What is a class 1 lever? In a Class One Lever, the Fulcrum is located between the Load and the Force. The closer the Load is to the Fulcrum, the easier it is to lift (increased mechanical advantage). Examples include see-saws, crow bars, hammer claws, scissors, pliers, and boat oars. What is an example of […]
What is the difference between plane stress and principal stress?
What is the difference between plane stress and principal stress? These planes are called the principal planes. It will also be noted from the figure that the normal stresses acting on the planes of zero shear stress are either a maximum or minimum. These normal stresses are called principal stresses. The principal stresses are labelled […]
How do you find the zero input response?
How do you find the zero input response? To find the zero input solution, take the Laplace Transform of the input with f(t)=0 and solve for Xzi(s). Note: since the initial condition was doubled, the zero input response was doubled. How do you find the steady state response from a transfer function? Because when we […]
What is the importance of damkohler number?
What is the importance of damkohler number? A Damköhler number (Da) is a useful ratio for determining whether diffusion rates or reaction rates are more ‘important’ for defining a steady-state chemical distribution over the length and time scales of interest. How is damkohler number calculated? The Damköhler number is defined to be the characteristic mixing […]
What is the driving force for fluid flow?
What is the driving force for fluid flow? The driving force for fluid flow is the pressure difference, and a pump operates by raising the pressure of a fluid (by converting the mechanical shaft work to flow energy). What is the effect of increasing the pressure on fluid flow rate? Bernoulli’s principle says that a […]
