1. technician a says horsepower information can be used by consumers to compare the power of different automobile engines. technician b says that manufacturers will often list the horsepower output of their engines in the online service information. who is right?

Knowing that the central portion of link bd has a uniform cross sectional area of 800 mm2 , determine the magnitude of the load p for which the normal stress in link bd is 50 mpa. (hint: link bd is a two-force member.) ans: p = 62.7 kn

The volume v and paper surface area a of a conical paper cup are given by where r is the radius of the base of the cone and h is the height of the cone. a. by eliminating h, obtain the expression for a as a function of r and v. b. create a user-de ned function that accepts r as the only argument and computes a for a given value of v. declare v to be global within the function. c. for v ! 10 in.3 , use the function with the fminbnd function to compute the value of r that minimizes the area a. what is the corresponding value of the height h? investigate the sensitivity of the solution by plotting v versus r. how much can r vary about its optimal value before the area increases 10 percent above its minimum value?
