Answer and Explanation:
The coefficient of determination also called "goodness of fit" or R-squared(R²) is used in statistical measurements to understand the relationship between two variables such that changes in one variable affects the other. The level of relationship or the degree to which one affects the other is measured by 0 to 1 whereby 0 means no relationship at all and 1 means one totally affects the other while figures in between such 0.40 would mean one variable affects 40% of the other variable.
In making a decision as an engineer while using the coefficient of determination, one would try to understand the relationship between variables under consideration and make decisions based on figures obtained from calculating coefficient of determination. In other words when there is a 0 coefficient then there is no relationship between variables and an engineer would make his decisions with this in mind and vice versa.
Answer:
1. 
2. 
Explanation:
1.
Given:
- height of the window pane,

- width of the window pane,

- thickness of the pane,

- thermal conductivity of the glass pane,

- temperature of the inner surface,

- temperature of the outer surface,

<u>According to the Fourier's law the rate of heat transfer is given as:</u>

here:
A = area through which the heat transfer occurs = 
dT = temperature difference across the thickness of the surface = 
dx = t = thickness normal to the surface = 


2.
- air spacing between two glass panes,

- area of each glass pane,

- thermal conductivity of air,

- temperature difference between the surfaces,

<u>Assuming layered transfer of heat through the air and the air between the glasses is always still:</u>



Answer:
The shear strain is 0.05797 rad.
Explanation:
Shear strain is the ratio of change in dimension along the shearing load direction to the height of the plate under application of shear load. Width of the plate remains same. Length of the plate slides under shear load.
Step1
Given:
Height of the pad is 1.38 in.
Deformation at the top of the pad is 0.08 in.
Calculation:
Step2
Shear strain is calculated as follows:



For small angle of
,
can take as
.

Thus, the shear strain is 0.05797 rad.
The impact behavior of plastic materials is strongly dependent upon the temperature. At high temperatures, materials are more ductile and have high impact toughness. At low temperatures, some plastics that would be ductile at room temperature become brittle.
