Mechanisms
The Mechanical Advantage of the Pulley System.
A circuit in which all parts are connected end-to-end to provide a single path of current.
What is a series circuit?
The function of the state of a thermodynamic system whose change in any differential reversible process is equal to the heat absorbed by the system from its surroundings divided by the absolute temperature of the system.
What is entropy?
The turning effect of a force about a point equal to the magnitude of the force times the perpendicular distance from the point to the line of action from the force.
What is moment?
Stages a product goes through from concept and use to eventual withdrawal from the marketplace.
What is product lifecycle?
The pull/effort required to lift a load of 55 pounds with a MA of 4.
What is 13.75 lb?
The efficiency of a system with a motor running a winch system that can lift a 3N load 6 meters in 60 seconds while running at an average of 9V and drawing 500 mA.
What is 6.67%?
A law that states if two systems are separately found to be in thermal equilibrium with a third system, the first two systems are in thermal equilibrium with each other; that is, all three systems are at the same temperature.
What is Zeroth?
A structure or body that is over-constrained, such that there are more unknown supports than there are equations of static equilibrium.
What is statically indeterminate?
Properties other than mechanical properties that pertain to the physics of a material and can usually be measured without the application of force.
What are physical properties?
If the wheel has a radius of 6 feet and the axle has a radius of 2 feet, this is the mechanical advantage.(Effort on the wheel)
What is 3?
This happens when two lamps are wired in parallel and another lamp is added in parallel.
What is the total resistance decreases?
The R-Value of drywall that has a U-Value of .875.
What is 1.14?
The geometric center of an area.
What is the centroid?
Those properties of a material that reveal the elastic and ineleastic reaction when force is applied, or that involve the relationship between stress and strain; for example, the modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, and fatigue limit.
What are mechanical properties?
The ramp is 2 feet tall (vertical distance) and the ramp (slanted distance) is 16 feet long. This is the mechanical advantage.
What is 1.25?
It is reasonable to assume the lights are wired in this type of circuit if one light bulb burns out in a string of lights, and the rest stay lit.
What is parallel?
Process by which, in a fluid being heated, the warmer part of the mass will rise and the cooler portions will sink.
What is convection?
The change of motion of the body is proportional to the net force imposed on the body and is in the direction of the net force.
What is Newton‘s 2nd Law.
To make into a product suitable for use; to make from raw materials by hand or by machinery; to produce according to an organized plan and with division of labor.
What is Manufacturing?
This is the overall gear ratio given: Gear A (input) has 20 teeth, B has 35 teeth, C has 45 teeth, and D (output) has 80 teeth.
What is 4?
The opposition that a device or material offers to the flow of direct current.
What is resistance?
The net transfer of electric charge (electron movement along a path) per unit of time.
What is current?
In a free-body diagram, a pinned support on a truss is represented by this.
What is a horizontal action force and a vertical reaction force?
A tool for systematically ranking alternatives according to a set of criteria.
What is a Decision Matrix?
