I was having a discussion with a friend, and my side of the argument was that for solar to work you also need a lot of fossil fuel running in the back ground just during the day, making it very expensive. Let's take New york as an example. Let's assume they have enough solar panels to produce...

Today, I discussed my friend about two rigid beams impact and assuming no energy loss in the impaction. As in the above figure, the upper beam move down with a uniform velocity ##v_c##, and hit a beam with ##0## velocity. After that the above beam will rotate and move away, which can be...

People jog, thereby expending energy, and lose weight because of it. As modern people who understand mass energy equivalence, we know (or can presume) that during the process of running, the body derives its kinetic energy by breaking down ATP in the cells. When this breakdown occurs, the total...

Hello All, I am an electrical engineer and hence quite far away from mechanics of masses. I just came to know that a spacecraft got crazy and might fall on earth. I did a simple math using MATLAB considering no atmosphere with h and m of the object as input and Nagasaki Bomb scale energy...

So in designing closed systems, mostly heating systems, I realized today that I've probably been doing one thing wrong all these years. In such a system one doesn't take elevation loss due to gravity into account since you "get it back" on the way down. This I've always been aware of, but what...

Hey guys Don't know if this is posted in the right category. doing an technical report on industrial gas turbines. but i am kind of lost. Does anyone have any input to what we can write about? I'm thinking of any problems with the turbines that we can write about. What heat loss and how much...

Hi, I just have a few questions on bernoullis equation dealing with power and head loss If the equation for power is p = mass flow rate * g * Hloss, Then is g only used when let's say a pipe is at an elevation ?, because in my book I have an example where g is not used to calculate the power...

We all know that the system loss in transmission line is i^2R. So, in order to reduce the loss we diminish the current flow through the line by means of transformer. My question is i can also calculate system loss by the formula v^2/R where v is the potential across transmission line. So...

I do not know what area of the forum my question belongs in and I am not sure how to phrase it correctly so it will be understandable but I will do my best. At some point in time will the energy of all particles deteriorate to nothing (assuming an expanding universe) and if so how will it...

So according to the ideal voltage loss equation V = IR if I double I (per se) I will double the loss in voltage. This is a bit odd and I just want to make sure my intuitive explanation is correct. I am assuming voltage loss is mainly due to some electrons bouncing off the resisting material and...
