What is the name of barometer which does not contain liquid?
It's known as an aneroid barometer. It works by the difference in pressure causing a partially flattened tube which is wound into a coil to straighten out. The movement is converted to circular motion by a series of gears. the central shaft has a needle attached which indicates the pressure.
What gear type is commonly used on residential-type circular saws?
Most hand-held circular saws have no gears--the blade is mounted directly on the motor shaft. The exception is the original-design Skilsaw, which uses a worm gear to drive the blade. (The company makes both styles, today).
What is wrapped around a screws rod?
The part of a screw that is wrapped around the central shaft of the screw is normally called a thread. It can be described technically as an inclined plane.
What is the bulk of the hair shaft made of?
The bulk of a hair shaft is keratin.
What is a stroboscope?
It's a calibrated flashing light used to measure the rotational speed of, say, a spinning motor shaft. Like the timing light used by mechanics on a car. The strobe is variable, and it can be "run up" until the flashing light on the spinning object causes the object to "stand still" and not appear to move. Then a peek at the readout of the strobe, and the user will know how fast the object is turning. Note that the shaft doesn't stop turning, but the strobe flashes and it illuminates the same spot on the shaft with every rotation, and that's what makes it (the shaft) appear to stop moving. All the operator need to be concerned about is avoiding a harmonic. If the strobe is flashing at exactly half the speed of the shaft, it will be illuminating the same spot on the shaft each time it flashes, but the shaft will actually have turned twice instead of once. But a good operator can avoid that.
A water faucet has a circular handle with radius 2.5 cm attached to a central shaft with radius 0.50 cm. What is the mechanical advantage of the faucet handle?
I got 1.3
Central shaft for a rotating wheel?
a axel
How do you calculate Volume of circular shaft?
(Pi x R x R) x H... Where R is the radius of the shaft and H is the height.
What is an anemometer and how is it used?
An anemometer is a device to measure wind speed. It is usually a series of arms extending our form a turnable central shaft. On the end of each arm is a "cup" which catches the wind. As the wind fills the cups, the arms spin, and thus the central shaft does too. The central shaft is connected to a device which converts turns of the shaft into miles (or kilometers) per hour.
Torsional rigidity of a solid circular shaft of diameter d is proportional to?
inversly proportioal to cube of diameter

What is a device that changes linear motion into circular motion?
A rack and pinion system is a simple mechanism which converts linear to circular motion. More complex systems such as the pistons of a car engine rotating the drive shaft are common.
Each metacarpal bone consist of three major regions what are they?
proximal base, body, and distal head
What is axial direction?
It is the direction in line with (parallel to) the axis of the part. If you have a cylindrical shaft, for example, the axial direction runs along the length thru the center of the circular ends.
What causes ocean currents to move in a circular flow?
There's a secret elevator shaft in China where millions of workers descend and take mine carts until they are under the ocean floor. From there they spin giant turbines that cause the ocean currents to move in a circular flow.
What is the explanation for the operation of the turboprop?
A turboprop engine is basically a turbojet, but with a propeller connected to the shaft. Air flows in the engine, is compressed by the compressor blades, and is ignited in the combustion chamber. the resulting jet of hot gas turns the turbine blades and shoots out the exhausts. A gearbox and propeller is connected to the central shaft. The turbine and compressor blades are connected to the central shaft. When the turbine blades turn, they turn the shaft, turning the compressor and the propeller. Most of a turboprop's power comes from the propeller.
What is the scientific term for bone shaft?
The shaft of the bone, between the epiphyses, is called the diaphysis. It has a hollow central medullary cavity containing marrow.The shaft of long bones is called DIAPHYSIS
