In a paragraph of 125 words, explain at least three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their
joja [24]

Answer:

Three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their projects are;

1) Prototyping

2) Simulation

3) Calculations

Explanation:

1) Prototyping is the process of experimental testing of samples of design, or model of a product with the possibility of the inclusion of control of parameters in order to determine the workability of a solution.

2) Simulation is the process of creating an imitation of a situation, operation or process which can be used to determine if a particular solution will be able to work as required in the simulated environment of a problem.

3) Calculations are used to find preliminary results of particular situations, their cause and effects based on scientific laws, theories and hypothesis such that the factor of the problem is equated with the available ideas to find the best possible solution.

A 20.0 µF capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 800 V. The terminals of the charged capacitor are then connected to
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

a) Q_initial = 16 * 10^-3 C

b) V_1 = V_2 =  (16/3) * 10^2 V

c)  E = 64/15 J

d)  dE = 32/15 J of decrease

Explanation:

Given:

- Capacitor 1, C_1 = 20.0 uF

- Capacitor 2, C_2 = 10.0 uF

- Charged with P.d V = 800 V

Find:

a) the original charge of the system,

(b) the final potential difference across each capacitor

(c) the final energy of the system

(d) the decrease in energy when the capacitors are connected.

Solution:

a)

- The initial charge in the circuit is the one carried by the first charged capacitor.

                           Q_initial = C_1*V

                           Q_initial = 20*10^-6 * 800

                           Q_initial = 16 * 10^-3 C

b)

- After charging the other capacitor, we know that the total charge is conserved among two capacitor:

                          Q_initial = Q_1 + Q_2

- We also know that potential difference across two capacitor is also same.

                          V_1 = V_2 = Q_1 / C_1 = Q_2 / C_2

- Using the two equations and solve for charge Q_2:

                          Q_2 = Q_1*C_2/C_1

                          Q_2 = Q_1*10/20 = 0.5*Q_1

- using conservation of charge:

                          Q_initial = 1.5*Q_1

                          Q_1 = 16*10^-3 / 1.5 = 10.67*10^-3 C

- Hence the Voltage across each capacitor is:

                          V_2 = V_1 = Q_1 / C_1  

                                            = 10.67*10^-3 / 20*10^-6

                                            = (16/3) * 10^2 V

c)

- The energy in the system is:

                          E = 0.5*C_eq*V^2

Where, C_eq is the equivalent capacitance of paralle circuit.

                           E = 0.5*(20+10)*10^-6 *((16/3) * 10^2)^2

                          E = 64/15 J

d)

- The decrease in energy of the capacitors is:

                           dE = E_initial - E_final

Where, E_initial is due to charging of the C_1 only:

                          dE = 0.5*10^-6*20*800^2 - (64/15)

                          dE = 32/5 - 64/15 = 32/15 J

What is a shearing stress? Is there a force resulting from two solids in contact to which is it similar?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Shearing stresses are the stresses generated in any material when a force acts in such a way that it tends to tear off the material.

Generally the above definition is valid at an armature level, in more technical terms shearing stresses are the component of the stresses that act parallel to any plane in a material that is under stress. Shearing stresses are present in a body even if normal forces act on it along the centroidal axis.

Mathematically in a plane AB the shearing stresses are given by

\tau =\frac{Fcos(\theta )}{A}

Yes the shearing force which generates the shearing stresses is similar to frictional force that acts between the 2 surfaces in contact with each other.
