I was reading up on those but it did not describe in detail how a Gerotor acts as an air pump, and what would happen in non ideal scenarios.

Thanks for all the comments guys. in this case, I am talking a type of fuel, and the shut off is there to stop the flow before ignition, however the pump is mechanically operated on the engine. So this is a real condition that would happen, during an emergency shut off. I kind of want to build a...

just hypothetical question, First off I am not very knowledgeable in pumps. Let's say you have a pump to pump fluid, i don't think the type matters, self priming as I understand it creates a vacuum with the air in the system to pull the fluid towards the gear pumps. I'm wondering what happens...

it still does the same actions with the ruler on or off, for me anways word 2010 outlook 2010

wait, you're saying it does the exact opposite of what i described? completely exact? and if you use "re designed" without the hypen it still acts the same. and any other name change won't work.

i should add I am using word 2010. someone just confirmed not working in 2013, or no bug

try this with a space at the end, don't do anything else except click the cursor back to in front of the d in designed "Hunter is having a top cover re‑designed " something is definitely not normal, because you can also do it as "re designed" without the hypen, and a varitey of other words...

messed up original post: "Hunter is having a top cover re‑designed" no period. now click the cursor right before the d in designed. hit tab, it will tab a single space. not a full tab. change "Hunter" to "Mike" or any other name, it will do a full Tab. try a word like "re-test" or...

very good info, a lot more to think about here than i original thought. this needs to be more precise than accurate, even if its an arbitrary number, its a good way for people in our martial arts gym to understand their performance.

ok I am trying to make a cheap version of this and yea g force is a very confusing unit of measure

i have a punching bag, say it weighs 70 lbs, hung by a chain. i duct tape an acceleromter (sparkfun) on the back of it, sampling at ~300 hz (is that enough?). punch the bag, i get a force in G force. how can i calculate this to say, foot lbs? i really am not sure where to start with this. any...

To summarize, I am doing some drop test by hanging an object off of a fork lift forks, raising it, dropping it onto either concrete floor or some foam/dampening material. an accelerometer is placed on the object being dropped (epoxied on). if i am getting 46403.666 Newtons as the force, how...

on a separate note, people that do SPL competitions with loud car stereos can only hit 180-190 dB because of the atmospheric pressure we are limited in manipulating. supposedly a different pressure would change that limitation.

[Mentors' note - this post was forked off from this thread because it's an interesting question in its own right] I would also like clarification on this. if you throw a rubber ball at concrete, it will "bounce off". if you throw the rubber ball at mud, the mud will absorb it and it will stay...

very true, the whole point of salary.com is to use the zip code feature
