AI Thread Summary
A discussion on the PV curve for a Quasiturbine engine highlights the challenge of visualizing its performance characteristics. Participants suggest exploring related resources, including articles and diagrams on Otto cycles, as a basis for understanding the Quasiturbine's PV curve. One user emphasizes the importance of considering temperature and entropy diagrams alongside the PV curve. The consensus is to adapt existing Otto cycle diagrams to better represent the Quasiturbine engine's unique features. Overall, leveraging existing resources and modifying them appears to be the recommended approach for the report.

Im working on a report for my physics class on engines and I wanted to do a report on the quasiturbine engine but I can't figure out what a PV curve for a Quasiturbine engine would look like?

I'm not familiar with this engine, but just a thought: sometimes it's helpful to look at the temperature/entropy diagram as well.
 
disregard my last reply. I was just reading about this engine, and you probably want the P/V diagram, check out factbug.org

It says this engine operates around an otto cycle. I'm certain you can google a graphic of an otto cycle pv diagram. Then, perhaps modify it for your purposes?

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Struggling to make relation between elastic force and height'

Hello guys this is what I tried so far. I used the UTS to calculate the force it needs when the rope tears. My idea was to make a relationship/ function that would give me the force depending on height. Yeah i couldnt find a way to solve it. I also thought about how I could use hooks law (how it was given to me in my script) with the thought of instead of having two part of a rope id have one singular rope from the middle to the top where I could find the difference in height. But the...
