4.4 Mechanical Design The main design strategy while designing the mechanical structure to mount the solar panel was to keep the design as simple as possible to avoid any complications. Aside from avoiding any complications, the design needed to allow for dual-axial rotation. This was accomplished by allowing the base that the panel is mounted on to rotate about its vertical axis, then elevate the panel off the base perpendicular to the vertical axis and allow it to pivot along its center. The…
How where women perceived back in the mid eight centuries? The pome of “Beowulf” was expected to be written mid eight centuries but some scholars are to believe the tenth century. The original manuscripts where destroyed in a fire in 1731. With the original being destroyed there is no provenance to the original tittle or author of the pome. With the fire the pome lost may lines (Greenblatt & Abrams). With the pomes author not being know the author is known as the Beowulf poet. Though it was…
Ever since Chevy and Dodge came out with a truck to challenge the Ford Model T truck back in early 1900’s, there has been a competition to see what he best farm truck really is. I have been involved in farming since I was born. I come from a family of farmers on both sides of my parents that dates back to 1915. I have seen in my short life time, a problem that every farmer faces, what truck to buy. What a farmer needs out of a truck is completely different from any other occupation. They…
Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to help students gain a better understanding of physical concepts such as work (which occurs when an applied force moves an object.) torque (defined as a twisting force), energy and rotational inertia (an object's resistance to rotation). Experimental Design: My group’s testable question throughout the mousetrap car experiment was: If we add and subtract factors such as material, weight and shape, from the wheels of our car, how will it affect the…
was the first to mate the 4 wheel drive with turbocharger engine. The fastest cars engine was 2144 CC, inline five cylinder and 10 valves SOHC with the intercooler and turbocharger. It’s produced by the output power of 147 KW, 200 PS and 176 BHP and torque 285 NM at 3500 RPM. The Quattro propelled from 0 to 100 Km/h in 7.1 Sec and reached to top speed of 220 Km/h. Then the engine was modified into 2144 CC in line five and 10 valve that can boost the power to 147 KW, 200 PS and 197 BHP. There is…
concluded that not only voltage could be induced in a system, but also resistance. The basis on the induction of resistance in metals comes from the alterations of spin of electrons in the system. When the electrons move through ferromagnetic materials, a torque is applied which is directly linked to the increase of resistance in a system. The Anomalous Hall Effect more specifically explains this concept. This references the nature of the magnetic moment orientation in the electrons when they…
Michelle Duarte Zapata Mrs. Dutcher ERWC 24 January 2017 The Warrior Code of Ethics Seamus Heaney provided a new verse translation of the epic poem Beowulf, which was originally passed on orally through generations. The poem does not have a known author, but it does serve as a guide to understanding the Anglo-Saxon culture. As the plot of this story develops, so does the reader's understanding of the values that the social group lived by, and the morals they held to be evident. The characters…
Automobiles have become more attached to humans, they have changed our lifestyles over the years, the first automobile was introduced in 1885 by Karl Benz. Then in 1886 Benz created his first engine powered by gasoline, today his company is still in business and it 's ones of the biggest one in business today. The company Karl Benz started is Mercedes Benz, and it 's known for selling sports cars. The first car Benz made was a three wheel car, it had one tire on the front and two in the back,…
On February 6 of 2018, at 11:00 a.m. in room 1043 of Thomas Cole Research building, Sade Rhodes spoke about the characterization of lignin-coated cellulose nanocrystals (C-CNCs) as a reinforcing agent in polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites. The logistics of the seminar that was most enjoyable was when the speaker focused on the matter of Nanocelluloses. She provided a lot of information on this topic and I understand how it related to her topics in her research. However, the only part that I did…
Understanding the pros and cons of hybrid cars ¬¬Many people uses a hybrid car even not being aware for a while. For example, a mo-ped (a motorized bike with pedals) is a type of hybrid vehicle because it couples the power of a gasoline engine with the power generated by the rider through the pedals. In fact, hybrid vehicles are quite common these days. A major section of locomotives that are seen pulling trains are diesel-electric hybrids. Metropolises like Seattle run diesel-electric buses…
