Metric system Vs. Imperial system | Comparison
Units are used to measure the quantity of anything to understand in such a way everyone can imagine it. There are two major unit systems. Imperial system and Metric system. Most of the countries use the metric system. In this article, we are going to compare both unit systems. Metric System Originally used in Mainland in Europe. […]
Hooke’s Law Definition | What is Hooke’s Law?
Hooke’s law is the behavioural principle of elastic materials where how the deformations are taken place in the elastic materials with respect to the applied load. Once the applied load crosses the elastic limit, the material will not obey the Hooke’s law. Hooke’s law stated that The strain in a solid body is directly proportional […]
Stress Strain Curve | Stress Strain diagram
To study the behavior of any material which is subjected to a load, it is possible by relating the stress with strain while gradually increasing the load. the graph between the stress and strain is known as Stress strain Curve. Stress strain curve If we draw a graph between stress and strain while applying a […]
What is Inertia? | moment of inertia
In the study of a moving object, the concept of Inertia is the internal resisting force that helps the body to stop at a point after removing the influence of the external force. Now you have an idea of what is inertia. Let’s have a deep look into it. What is Inertia? By definition Inertia […]
