Answer:

metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

Explanation:

The four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing are metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.

i) Metals: Metals are solids made up of atoms held by matrix of electrons. They are good conductors of heat and electricity, ductile and strong.

ii) Composite: This is a combination of two or more materials. They have high strength to weight ratio, stiff, low conductivity. E.g are wood, concrete.

iii) Ceramics: They are inorganic, non-metallic crystalline compounds with high hardness and strength as well as poor conductors of electricity and heat.

iv) Polymers: They have low weight and are poor conductors of electricity and heat

The Ethernet (CSMA/CD) alternates between contention intervals and successful transmissions. Assume a 100 Mbps Ethernet over 1 k

Vesnalui [34]

<h3><u>CSMA/CD Protocol: </u></h3>

Carrier sensing can transmit the data at anytime only the condition is before sending the data sense carrier if the carrier is free then send the data.

But the problem is the standing at one end of channel, we can’t send the entire carrier. Because of this 2 stations can transmit the data (use the channel) at the same time resulting in collisions.

There are no acknowledgement to detect collisions, It's stations responsibility to detect whether its data is falling into collisions or not.

<u>Example: </u>

$T_{P}=1 H r$ , at time t = 10.00 AM, A starts, 10:59:59 AM B starts at time 11:00 AM collision starts.

12:00 AM A will see collisions

Pocket Size to detect the collision.

$\begin{aligned}&T_{t} \geq 2 T_{P}\\&\frac{L}{B} \geq 2 T_{P}\\&L \geq 2 \times T_{P} \times B\end{aligned}$

CSMA/CD is widely used in Ethernet.

<u>Efficiency of CSMA/CD:</u>

In the previous example we have seen that in worst case $2 T_{P}$ time require to detect a collision.

There could be many collisions may happen before a successful completion of transmission of a packet.

We are given number of collisions (contentions slots)=4.

$\text { Propagation day }=\frac{\text {distance}}{\text {speed}}$

Distance = 1km = 1000m

$\begin{aligned}&\text { Speed }=2 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{sec}\\ &T_{P}=\frac{1000}{2 \times 10^{8}}=(0.5) \times 10^{-5}=5 \times 10^{-6}\\ &T_{t}=5 \mu \mathrm{sec}\end{aligned}$

why is the thermal conductivity of super insolation order of magnitude lower than the thermal conductivity of ordinary insulatio

Anni [7]

Answer:

Super insulation are obtained by using layers of highly reflective sheets separated by glass fibers in an vacuumed space. Radiation heat transfer between any of the surfaces is inversely proportional to the number of sheets used and thus heat lost by radiation will be very low by using these highly reflective sheets which will an effective way of heat transfer.
