Explain the concept of degrees of freedom in terms of physics and mechanics.

Engineering
1 answer:
Sophie [7]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Step1

Degree of freedom is the number of independent variable which is required to define motion of the system. Degree of freedom is the number of possible motion of the system. Motion can be sliding or rotate. So, there are maximum 6 possible motions of the system, 3 of rotation and 3 of translation. There are 6 maximum possible degrees of freedoms.

Step2

Take an example of slider that is allowed to slide only. So, the slider will have one degree of freedom. Take an example of cylinder which can rotate as well as slide. So, it will have 2 degree of freedom.

If welding is being done in the vertical position, the torch should have a travel angle of?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Between 35°– 45°

Explanation:

In the vertical position, Point the flame in the direction of travel. Keep the flame tip at the correct height above the base metal. An angle of 35°–45° should be maintained between the torch tip and the base metal. This angle may be varied up or down to heat or cool the weld pool if it is too narrow or too wide

A flat plate 1.5 m long and 1.0 m wide is towed in water at 20 o C in the direction of its length at a speed of 15 cm/s. Determi
beks73 [17]

Answer:

15.8

0.0944

Explanation:

L = 1.5

B = 1.0

Speed of water = 15cm

Temperature = 20⁰C

At 20⁰C

Specific weight = 9790

Kinematic viscosity v = 1.00x10^-4m²/s

Dynamic viscosity u = 1.00x10^-3

Density p = 998kg/m²

Reynolds number

= 0.15x1.5/1.00x10^-4

= 225000

S = 5

5x1.5/225000^1/2

= 0.0158

= 15.8mm

Resistance on one side of plate

F = 0.664x1x1.0x10^-3x0.15x225000^1/2

= 0.04724N

Total resistance

= 2N

= 2x0.04724

= 0.0944N
