Determine the height of the wine column for normal atmospheric pressure. 2 A vertical off-shore structure is built to withstand a maximum stress of 109 Pa. Is the structure suitable for putting up on top of an oil well in the ocean? Take the depth of the ocean to be roughly 3 km‚ and ignore ocean currents. 3 A hydraulic automobile lift is designed to lift cars with

Samuel Haynes English 1101 – Mechanical Engineering Professor Raymond October 15‚ 2012 ME At the start of the Industrial Revolution‚ in the 18th century the steam engine was first produced. From this production it gave an enormous start to all machinery of any type and every type. As a result‚ a new major classification of engineering was formed due to the intuition of machines and tools being developed. Soon after this‚ the Institution of Mechanical Engineers was founded in Birmingham‚ England

However to me this machine is responsible for sparking an interest in how things work. My love for practical sciences‚ in addition to my innate fascination with technology used for practical and real purposes‚ has enabled me to discern my love for mechanical engineering. As a chubby 11 year old‚ I remember sitting glued to Discovery channel. An episode of the show ‘How it’s made’ featured the process used to create a gumball machine. Awestruck I learnt about the intricate parts that made this miraculous

The current process of sequentially comparing 114 inch foot scale transparent drawings for each system over a light table adds significant cost to many projects and can add significant duration. Improving the coordination process for mechanical‚ electrical‚ and plumbing (MEP) systems on complex buildings and light industrial projects presents a major opportunity to improve project performance through increased integration. Coordination involves defining locations for branch components
