This could be a lot of things. It is hard to say for sure with out seeing your car. 1. It could be that one of the plug wires is damaged. 2. Bad O2 sensor. 3. Could be that your fuel injectors need to be cleaned. 4. If you have an older car that has a throttle body injection system or a carburator, you will have a distributer cap. If there is moisture in it, your car will run this way. However, the moisture usually will evaporate and the problem will go away. This is probably not your problem. I would think that this probably has something to do with fuel getting to the fuel injector system or something else in the fuel system. I have had all of the above problems, so I know that these things could be your problem. The easiest thing to do to find out where the problem lies is to go to an automotive store and ask them to do a computer diagnostics on your car. A lot of stores offer this service free of charge. A mechanic will charge you for this service. A diagnostic will tell you where the problem lies.

What is the 4th derivative of the position function?

Distance f(x) = x(t) = 1/2at2+vit+xi Velocity f'(x) = v(t) = dx/dt=at +vi Acceleration f''(x) = a(t) = dv/dt Jerk f'''(x) = j(t) = da/dt The fourth derivative is not universally accepted, but some have called it "snap", and the fifth and sixth derivatives "crackle" and "pop" respectively. Snap f(4)(x) = s(t) = dj/dt Crackle f(5)(x) = c(t) = ds/dt Pop f(6)(x) = p(t) = dc/dt


How do you develop an iron chin?

well getting hit in the head a lot is one way, but if you dont want to learn that way here is what i suggest. Football players specifically train so they don't get injured after being hit. They do alot of explosive lifting. Doing alot of explosive weight lifting will teach your body how to take sudden impact. What I mean by explosive is olympic weight lifting like the clean and jerk and the snatch. These are hard to learn but absolutely phenomenal for boxing. I started doing them a year back and now getting hit in the head doesn't affect me like it used to. Go on youtube and watch some videos to get started. I recommend getting a trainer to help you since the potential for injury is there. You should target being able to power clean 1.5 times your body weight to see any results. hope that helps.


What is the difference between client server and application testing?

they're two different things.Two completely different things. Client / Server is the way computers interact with the web, for example. Your browser software lives on a client computer. That client connects to the web server, where the page you asked for lives, by http. There are many other protocols for the client to talk to the server and get data back. Application testing is a process, usally automated in enterprise and hand driven in video games, where code or people interact with the application under development in an effort to use it and break it.What happens if you enter a negative floating point number in the address field? Do you get a proper, user understandable answer like "Hey! Jerk! Gimme a street, not -0.3!" or something that requires a programmer to translate: "wrong data type" or, better yet, "failed row update. data server reject: -4017. floats not permitted. abend."This can be done in data entry programs, like those found in business, by automatedd testing. Testing software 'uses' the software under development.IN video games, testing is done by humans, often teenagers, who have unlimited time and interest and will work cheaply. No prior knowledge required.Application testing produces logs which are routed back to programmers for triage and repair. This code, debug, test, recode, retest cycle is completed when it SEEMS there are few enough bugs to try a release candidate.


How the plane fly?

The engines used by the aircraft produces thrust and also motion to the aircraft in order to give speed to the aircraft so that the wings can produce lift that is greater than what actually the areoplane weighs with its cargo, passenger and the fuel on board. The amount of lift should be greater the the aircraft's mass so that it can stay in the air.The aeroplane has an aerodynamicaly shaped (streamlined - to reduce drag or air friction ) body, with it's wings stretching out as much as 211ft (Boeing 747). Generally, such a large wingspan is to have a large surface area to give the plane a lift of the ground. Now, the huge winged turbones placed beneath the wings when started pushes the aeroplane forward from 0 to as much as 932 miles per hour during take off period and then cruise of at 300+ milse per hour at such speeds this creates a pressure difference on the belly side of the plane and the upper surface. The upper surface creates a low pressure and the belly side creates a high pressure so the wind tends to move from high pressure to low pressure area. Thereby giving the plane enough lift for initial take off. Similar pressure difference exsists when the plane is in motion as well which maitains the flight in its path. When sudden pressure differences occur in air ( generally reffered to as turbulence) causes the flight to shake or jerk when in air. hope this answers your questions

Why does the Honda City 2005 model give Jerk and off while accelerating the car give jerk till the speed of 80kmh when you push more accelerator but if you push accelerator slowly it runs without jerk?

With a fuel pump problem, the car may seem to shudder or make jerking movements while accelerating. This is commonly misdiagnosed as a dirty fuel filter or "bad" gas in the tank. What's really happening is that the fuel pump is wearing out and at high speeds is unable to provide steady fuel pressure to the engine, causing it to misfire.

Why does a car jerk when accelerating?

Something to do with the transmission. Probably slipping It's the force of momentum being exerted on the car, the chassis of the car doesn't quite "catch up" with the engine itself without a transfer of momentum, or "jerk".
