Where can you get shock absorptive strong rubber?
Actually, rubber is not a good shock absorber, for it is an elastic material and does not store or dissipate much energy. Air or other gas is the useful principle in car shock absorbers, where the lossy characteristics of air compression are used to absorb energy. Forcing oil through a small hole is also used for the same purpose.
Is there a difference between a DC shock and a AC shock?
Yeh buddy! A dc shock is a good shot. An ac shock causes muscles to alternate. Depending on the voltages from either it can be an enlightning experience.
How do you prevent heat loss in the home?
You should do all these things. * Have loft insulation fitted * Have cavity wall insulation fitted * Draught excluder placed by your doors * Carpet your house all the way round * Have double glazing fitted. You will save lots of valuable pounds.
Why salinometer valve fitted in boiler?
its a device use for measuring the salinity of boiler water. it is generally fitted in water drums .its is provided to prevent the flashing off of boiler water under high pressure condition.
Different between gantry crane and mobil crane?
gantry cranes are types of crane which lift objects by a hoist which is fitted in a trolley and can move horizontally on a rail or pair of rails fitted under a beam. A mobile crane is any mobile crane, i.e. one that is easily moved from one location to another, sometimes while carrying a load. Generally these cranes are fitted in trucks.
How does impact absorbers work?
Shock absorbers work to minimize the impact of daily wear and collisions on cars, shoes, and other items
What are strut structures?
The Struts are the shock absorbers that include the spring. They are commonly referred to as McPherson Struts. Most cars now have Struts on the front and rear instead of the simple shock absorbers.
Are hydraulic shock absorbers rather that gas charged available for cars and light trucks?
yes
What property makes gasess useful for shock absorbers in mountain bikes and cars?
Gases are compressible.
What property makes gases useful for shock absorbers in mountain bikes and cars?
Gases are compressible.
What do shock absorbers do?
mabye they "absorb shock!" 2nd Answer: In actual fact, shock absorbers do not absorb shock: the springs do that. The "shock absorbers" dampen rebound (Bouncing). In a bike, the spring is built right around the dampener part.
What acts as a shock absorber in your body?
You have the cartilages in the joints, which act as mechanical shock absorbers. But then you have other functional shock absorbers. You have arches in the foot, which act as shock absorbers. Then when you jump down, you have that spring like movement of the legs. That act as a shock absorbers.
What is the working principle of shock absorbers?
Shock absorbers work to minimize the impact of daily wear and collisions on cars, shoes, and other items. Ideally, a shock absorber takes the energy that occurs in a collision (moving, or kinetic energy) and converts it into heat, minimizing the amount of damage to the object.
What dose shocks do for the cars?
Shock absorbers are a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and dampen shock impulses. Their intended sole purpose is to damp spring oscillations.
Are the arches of the foot mianly shock absorbers?
no, shock absorbers are in your knees and back. Some people have flat feet.
Does a 2004 Ford Ranger have shocks or struts?
For a 2004 Ford Ranger : Shock absorbers , front and rear
Are shock absorbers part of the suspesion?
Yes they are typically, 1992 BMW E36 for say has shock absorbers which are safety measures for accidents. They install behind bumpers to allow a 6" movement in the event you hit something (shock absorbers)
