Answer:

Electric currents

Physical properties of metals

Influence of gravitational force on objects

Explanation:

The engineer who designed the digital scale must have a good working knowledge of the electric current, and its principle of flow through various materials, and also, factors that can affect its flow through a material (especially metals).

The physical properties of metal would have to be known by the engineer, in order to design the digital scale. The engineer must be able to predict some of the effect of the changes in the physical properties of a metal, and then use this to get some function that he wants from the digital scale, especially the effect of these physical changes on the electrical conducting ability of a metal.

The knowledge of the effect of gravitational force on objects is a must-know for the engineer. The process of scaling here on earth is very much dependent on the gravitational pull on objects downwards to the earth. This knowledge can be used to predict how much deflection this gravity forces will induce on an object towards the earth.

Answer:

t = 1.06 sec

Explanation:

Once disconnected from the battery, the capacitor discharges through the internal resistance of the dielectric, which can be expressed as follows:

R = (1/σ)*d/A, where d is is the separation between plates, and A is the area of one of  the plates.

The capacitance C , for a parallel plates capacitor filled with a dielectric of a relative permittivity ε, can be expressed in this way:

C = ε₀*ε*A/d = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

The voltage in the capacitor (which is proportional to the residual charge as it discharges through the resistance of the dielectric) follows an exponential decay, as follows:

V = V₀*e(-t/RC)

The product RC (which is called the time constant of the circuit) can be calculated as follows:

R*C = (1/10⁻¹⁰)*d/A*8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

Simplifying common terms, we finally have:

R*C = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12 / (1/10⁻¹⁰) sec = 1.06 sec

If we want to know the time at which the voltage will decay to 3.67 V, we can write the following expression:

V= V₀*e(-t/RC) ⇒ e(-t/RC) = 3.67/10 ⇒ -t/RC = ln(3.67/10)= -1

⇒ t = RC = 1.06 sec.

Harmonic excitation of motion is represent as
Gennadij [26K]

Harmonic excitation refers to a sinusoidal external force of a certain frequency applied to a system. ... Resonance occurs when the external excitation has the same frequency as the natural frequency of the system. It leads to large displacements and can cause a system to exceed its elastic range and fail structurally.

List three types of concurrent engineering in manufacturing.
klio [65]

Answer:

A famous example of concurrent engineering is the development of the Boeing 777 commercial aircraft. The aircraft was designed and built by geographically distributed companies that worked entirely on a common product database of C A TIA without building physical mock-ups but with digital product definitions.
