Statics

Statics is the branch of mechanics that describes bodies which are acted upon by balanced forces and torques so that they remain at rest or in uniform motion. In statics, the bodies being studied are in equilibrium.

Can principal characters be static?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, principal characters can be static, meaning they do not undergo significant internal change or growth throughout a story. They may serve as a stable presence or foil for dynamic characters to interact with, allowing the focus to be on their development instead.

Static characters in The Yellow Wallpaper?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In "The Yellow Wallpaper," the character of John, the narrator's husband, remains static throughout the story. He consistently exhibits controlling and dismissive behavior towards the narrator, failing to evolve or change his perspectives. John's static nature contrasts with the narrator's transformation and descent into madness as the narrative progresses.

How would The Yellow Wallpaper be different if it were told from another character's perspective?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If The Yellow Wallpaper were told from another character's perspective, such as John's, it would likely focus on his perceptions and rationale for his actions. The story may paint a different picture of the narrator's mental state and provide insight into John's perspective on his wife's condition. This shift in perspective could potentially alter the reader's interpretation of the events and themes of the story.

A static character remains consistent and does not undergo significant change throughout a story. Examples include Atticus Finch in "To Kill a Mockingbird," Sherlock Holmes in the detective stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, and Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings."

What amount of force is needed to bend metal?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depends on what metal you are refering to. * Aluminum is can be bent at 1 ton * Stainless at 50 ton * Mild Steel at 100 tons * Carbon Steel can be bent at 150 tons. All of these metal depend on the thickness of the material. For example, the thickness of these metal would have to be between the thickness of .25 (quarter inch) to .50 (half inch). Note: It also depends of the quality of the metal. SS 1311-00 steel (Swedish standard), for example, can handle 220N per square millimetre until it reaches its yield point. Once the yield point is passed some fraction of the deformation will be permanent and non-reversible. Answer: Mathematically

Δ = PL3/(48EI) Where: Δ = deflection

L = span

E = Modulus of Elasticity (see link for typicals)

I = Moment of Inertia

b = width

d = depth

I = bd3/12 for a rectangular cross section

The screw is one of the six (or seven) Aristotelian 'Simple Machines' that enable humans to do work by redirecting or focusing force.

A screw is a fastener.

What is an example of static friction?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Static friction is the friction the object must be able to overcome in order to move. I'm sure you've noticed that you have to work hard to get an object to move, but once its moving, it is easier to push it. That is because static friction is greater that kinetic friction.

What is a fixed pulley used for?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In a simple case of lifting a weight using a pulley, there are two ways to do it and two different results.

First, attach a pulley to the ceiling, and a rope to the weight which is on the floor. Run the rope through the pulley. Now we simply pull down on the rope and the weight is lifted up.

In the second case, we attach one end of the rope to the ceiling, the pulley to the weight, and pass the unattached end of the rope through the pulley. Now we have to pull the rope up, and the weight is lifted.

Now let's look at each job and what happens.

In the first case, pull the rope tight without lifting and hold the rope at the top, next to the pulley. If you now pull the rope all the way down to the floor, the weight goes all the way up to the ceiling. Note also that the tension in the rope is equal to the weight being lifted and that there is only one tensioned rope pulling the weight upwards. Passing over the pulley changes the direction of the tension in the rope but doesn't change it's pulling power. Pulling that rope from ceiling to floor is exactly the same as lifting the weight from floor to ceiling.

In the second case, tighten the rope before lifting and hold the rope where it exits the pulley on the weight. Now pull and your hand moves from there to the ceiling - about the same distance (but the other way) as you moved your hand in the other case. However, notice now that the weight is only half way to the ceiling. It is hanging on a loop of rope, one side going to the hook and the other going to your hand. This suggests that the weight is shared by these two parts of the rope and therefore the tension in each piece only needs to be half the weight. Your hand is holding half the weight. The ceiling hook is still holding the other half.

To finish the job, you will have to keep pulling more rope - all the rope which is still there from hook to weight pulley and back to your hand. That's the floor to ceiling distance. In the second case, you pull twice as much rope to finish the job.

And because it takes twice as long, it only needs half the force at any stage.

Why half empty bottle is more stable than full one?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

full bottles are top heavy. half full one's are not.

The above answer is only true if the bottle is shaped so there is more water in the top half then the bottom half when full. Otherwise the bottle is not top heavy. It is just as heavy (or sometimes only slightly less heavy) on top as it is on bottom. Where as a half empty bottle has a heavier base to keep it from toppling over easier. The same principle is used in the engineering of skyscrapers. The foundation goes deep into the ground and weighs many times the weight of the top so it will not fall because of a windy day.

Better... for what exactly? Please note that while one material can be better for one purpose, another one may be better for a different purpose.Differences between materials are due to the different percentages of elements present in the materials, as well as to the way the atoms are arranged.

How do tower cranes stay upright?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A tower crane is tall and narrow. Because of this, a small amount of tilt could cause the whole structure to topple. The base of the crane is loaded with concrete, which gives it a lower centre of mass to prevent it from toppling.
