The stress-strain curve shows the relationship between stress (force applied) and strain (resulting deformation) in a material.
The curve typically consists of three main regions: elastic deformation, plastic deformation, and fracture.
In the elastic region, the material deforms elastically and returns to its original shape when the stress is removed.
The plastic region is where permanent deformation occurs, but the mater...

Velocity of fluid flowing through a pipe can be calculated using the formula Q = A * V, where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe, and V is the velocity of the fluid.
Calculate the cross-sectional area of the pipe using the formula A = π * r^2, where r is the radius of the pipe.
Determine the flow rate (Q) of the fluid, which is typically measured in cubic meters per second (m^3/s) or liters per...
Entropy is a measure of disorder or randomness in a system, while enthalpy is a measure of the heat energy in a system.
Entropy is a thermodynamic property that measures the amount of energy in a system that is not available to do work.
Enthalpy is a thermodynamic property that measures the total heat content of a system.
Entropy increases in irreversible processes, while enthalpy remains constant.
Entropy is denoted by S,...
The Refrigeration Cycle graph shows the process of cooling a space by transferring heat from inside to outside.
The cycle starts with the refrigerant entering the compressor as a low-pressure gas.
The refrigerant is compressed, raising its temperature and pressure, before entering the condenser where it releases heat to the surroundings.
After losing heat, the refrigerant becomes a high-pressure liquid and flows into the ...
The vapor absorption cycle graph shows the relationship between pressure, temperature, and enthalpy during the process.
The graph typically shows pressure on the y-axis and temperature on the x-axis.
It includes lines representing the various stages of the cycle such as evaporation, absorption, and desorption.
The enthalpy values at different points in the cycle can also be plotted on the graph.
Example: The graph will sho...
The Rankine, Otto, and Diesel cycle graphs are commonly used in thermodynamics to analyze different types of heat engines.
The Rankine cycle is used in steam power plants and consists of four processes: heat addition, isentropic expansion, heat rejection, and isentropic compression.
The Otto cycle is used in spark-ignition engines and consists of four processes: isentropic compression, constant volume heat addition, isen...

It involves removing air bubbles from the system by opening valves or using a vacuum pump.
Bleeding is commonly done in brake systems to ensure proper braking performance.
It can also be done in cooling systems to prevent overheating.
Bleeding is important to prevent damage to the
Segregation refers to the separation of different components or materials from a mixture.
Segregation can occur due to differences in size, density, or shape of the components.
