A rectangular material sample (2 in tall and 1 in wide) is subjected to a vertical tensile stress of 50,000 psi on its upper edge. The bottom edge of the sample is constrained from displacing in the vertical, or y, direction but is free to expand or contract in the horizontal, or x, direction. The stresses throughout the sample are uniform. Determine the displacement in the y direction at the top edge of the sample. Determine the displacement of the vertical edge in x direction. Assume that conditions of plane stress apply and E = 29,000,000 psi (steel).

Octave is defined as a doubling of the frequency : An octave is defined as a doubling of the frequency. The claim is made that a low-pass Butterworth filter of order n has a roll-off (attenuation) of 6n dB/octave. Calculate the gain in dB for a second-order filter for the cut-off frequency itself, an..

Voltage signal is measured-digital data acquisition system : A voltage signal is produced by a transducer. The signal contains its strongest frequency component at 50 Hz (amplitude = 5.0 V), plus a weaker component at the second harmonic (100 Hz) with amplitude 2.0 V. In addition, there is noise at 60 Hz with..
