    Is My Beam Hinge Pin Calculation Correct?

    Appreciate if someone can check my answers to the following question: A beam hinged at one end and simply supported at the other is subjected to the loading shown. A design calculation is required to determine the suitable size of hinge pin. If wrong, could you point me in the right direction...

    Calculate the final speed of the pin

    Assume that a bowling ball, initially traveling at 12.0m/s, has 5 times the mass of a pin and that the pin goes off at 80* from the original direction of the ball. A) Calculate the final speed of the pin, B) the final speed of the ball, C) and the angle through which the ball was deflected...

    Finding a Pin Compatible Alternative to the DAC0830

    does anyone know of another part similar to this dac? like a pin compatible one? because this one is not readily available here, (even though it states that they are in full production on the national website) "The DAC0830 is an advanced CMOS/Si-Cr 8-bit multiplying DAC designed to...

    Calculating the Velocity of Pin P in a Rod A-Rod B System

    From B&J Chap 15 Rods A and B are attached to a wall and point to the right. A collar with pin P moves freely on Rod A. Rod A is positioned horizontally. Rod B is 500mm below Rod A and angled 30 degrees up with the wall. Pin P is attached to a slot in Rod B. Pin P moves freely in the...

    How do Silicon PIN photodiodes convert alpha particles into electrical signals?

    i am writing a lab report into an experiment i did using a photodiode to detect alpha particles. I am curious however as to how a photodiode actually works. The alpha particles are emitted from the source, they hit the diode and then what happens? Its somehow changed into an electrical signal...

    Inertia of a Bowling Pin: Can We Predict Its Complex Motion After Impact?

    Hi, I need to know the moment of inertia of a bowling pin. I'd like to know how to calculate it. I would prefer an approximation formula according to the mass of the pin instead of an integration method. Thank you
