Why Do Different Software Show Varied Results for 3D Damped Spring Plots?
AI Thread Summary
Different software can yield varied results for 3D damped spring plots due to differences in their algorithms and underlying physics models. The user compared outputs from Maxima's gnuplot engine and WolframAlpha, noting discrepancies in the results. The accuracy of each software depends on the specific parameters and settings used during the simulation. Users are encouraged to verify the input conditions and review the documentation for each software to understand potential sources of error. Ultimately, the choice of software may impact the reliability of the results for damped spring simulations.
Hello everyone,
Consider the problem in which a car is told to travel at 30 km/h for L kilometers and then at 60 km/h for another L kilometers. Next, you are asked to determine the average speed.
My question is: although we know that the average speed in this case is the harmonic mean of the two speeds, is it also possible to state that the average speed over this 2L-kilometer stretch can be obtained as a weighted average of the two speeds?
Best regards,

The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...
Hello!
I have a question regarding a beam on an inclined plane. I was considering a beam resting on two supports attached to an inclined plane. I was almost sure that the lower support must be more loaded. My imagination about this problem is shown in the picture below.
Here is how I wrote the condition of equilibrium forces:
$$
\begin{cases}
F_{g\parallel}=F_{t1}+F_{t2}, \\
F_{g\perp}=F_{r1}+F_{r2}
\end{cases}.
$$
On the other hand...
