What is the name of the cutaneous receptor that detects deep pressure?
The Pacinian corpuscle responds to "mechanical" pressure i.e. touch.
What happens to a rock when they are uplifted to the surface of the earth?
Pressure on them is released, which can cause pressure-release mechanical weathering. Exposure of an uplifted rock to the surface will fully expose the rock to the effects of mechanical and chemical weathering--basically a rock rot.
Mechanical Weathering?
In mechanical weathering, rocks are broken down into smaller pieces without changing their composition. Mechanical weathering is caused by freezing and thawing, release of pressure, plant growth, action of animals, and abrasion.
What is unit of differential pressure?
Let me differentiate first between design pressure and mechanical design pressure. Design (or discharge) pressure is the pressure at the outlet of the pump, the pressure you've designed the pump to deliver. The mechanical design pressure is a value that the pump casing and downstream piping have to be able to withstand as a minimum*. I presume you mean design pressure as discharge pressure. In this case, differential pressure is the difference between the discharge pressure and the suction pressure (the pressure at the inlet of the pump**). * this is calculated taking into account that a pump would be working against a 'blocked discharge' or a closed valve in the outlet piping ** imagine a reservoir filled with liquid
Explian the four types of mechanical weathering?
ice wedging/frost wedging, pressure release, plant root growth, abrasion.
Is the release of pressure mechanical or chemical weathering?
It is mechanical as pressure is very much a mechanical element.
Are metamorphic rocks formed by some combination of heat pressure and mechanical activity?
Metamorphic rock can be formed a a combination of heat, pressure, and mechanical activity, or by heat, or by pressure from a mechanical activity such as plate motions.
Is the 1994 Jeep Wrangler oil pressure gauge mechanical or electrical?
mechanical
What is function of pressure transmitter?
a pressure transmitter is a devise to measure the mechanical pressure and convert in to electrical signal it may be 4~20mA or 0~10V
What is up stream pressure?
The upstream pressure is the pressure in a pipe or duct on the inlet side of a piece of mechanical equipment.
What are the forces that affects object?
* mechanical * gravitational * magnetic * electrostatic * pressure (subset of mechanical) * strong nuclear * weak nuclear * peer pressure (just kidding, not really)
What provides the friction surface necessary to stop the wheel?
hyd pressure or mechanical force from a plunger or mechanical device.
What type of mechanical weathering is most common in mountains areas?
The mechanical weathering involves erosion,wind pressure.
What is the Difference between pressure indicator and pressure gauge?
Pressure Indicator is any instrument that indicates pressure. Pressure Gauge is also a type of pressure Indicator. It is a mechanical device. Pressure indicators can work on mechanical deflection (in case of pressure gauge) or Piezo electric effect, change in capacitance, change in inductance etc. These are generally digital type instruments.
What is mechanoreceeptor?
It something that senses mechanical forces such as pressure or stretch.
Which type of weathering occurs due to release of pressure?
Mechanical
If hydraulic pressure is lost in the primary circuit how does the secondary piston actuate?
Mechanical pressure from the primary piston
