Give an example of how the fields of science, technology, and mathematics are commonly used when building a highway.

1 answer:

8 0

Science: how will chemicals used to treat the road react to the environment? what chemicals can be used to make the highway that will not cause problems?
technology: sensors could be placed in the road, especially for stop signs or red lights that will sense the presence of a vehicle.
mathematics: how long will the highway be? what angle will each turn be? how wide should the highway be? how many lanes?

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

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

What is the difference Plastic vs elastic deformation.

Reika [66]

Answer:

What is the difference Plastic vs elastic deformation

Explanation:

The elastic deformation occurs when a low stress is apply over a metal or metal structure, in this process, the stress' deformation is temporary and it's recover after the stress is removed. In other words, this DOES NOT affects the atoms separation.

The plastic deformation occurs when the stress apply over the metal or metal structure is sufficient to deform the atomic structure making the atoms split, this is a crystal separation on a limited amount of atoms' bonds.
