    How do I find this? 60x10-6 = ?

    I know what it means but what I don't understand is where it comes from I mean like when do I know when to use it? For example: 150mm dia Elasticity 200gpaBut I wrote it down as 150x10^-3 and 200x10^9 I could of left it as 150 and 200 but I changed it to ^ instead, why did I do it and how...

    How do I find this? 60x10-6 = ?

    I don't understand where it comes from. Say for example 60x10-6 or sixty times 10 to the power of mines six. How do I find the last part?

    Physics What is the difference between Biomedical Physics and Theoretical Physics?

    Well speaking to my teachers and looking at UCAS website, A levels or any equivalents are fine? I'm doing my HNC if that even counts and considering the HND. There is a course just called "Physics" and another called " Theoretical Physics and mathematics". What is the difference? One course...

    Have i done this right? Simply Supported Beams

    Ok, i need help, how do i plot the sheer force diagram? I did a rough example: + +2.28 for 1m then with the 2KN i come down to .28 for 2.5m and with the 3KN i come down to -2.72 for 3.5m and then back up to 0 inbetween the plus and minus. - Is this rough version ok?

    Have i done this right? Simply Supported Beams

    Found Ra. How did i miss that. My first notes were correct. Rb = 2.714kn and Ra = 2.286kn I did the calculations wrong.

    Have i done this right? Simply Supported Beams

    ƩƩHomework Statement I am having issues finding Ra and Rb using the Sum of the momemnts, it's ƩMCW = MACW. I need to find the position of the maximum and minimum bending moments. The Supported beams in question is 3.5m long. Starting from the left and moving towards the right: 1m in...

    Solving D'Alembert's Equation: Homework Help

    Ok here is my attempt, possibly all wrong. I guessed the tracktive effort is 2100.2 I got this by looking at the D'Alembert's equation: Tracktive effort = gravitational force + inertia resistence + frictional resistance. For Gravitational force, i put 1350 as that is mass and a...

    Solving D'Alembert's Equation: Homework Help

    Homework Statement Hey, this is the first time i have ever done this and i like to know how to solve it. A car with a mass of 1350kg is tested by having it accelerated up a road with a slope of 1 in 5,increasing in speed from 2.5 to 12 m/s,covering a distance of 100m, agaisnt a frictional...
