Why does a balloon that is rubbed on someoneâs shirt stick to a wall at a party?

Abeam has a square cross-section, a x a, where a is the linear dimension, and is subject to a pure bending moment, m. m is known with an uncertainty of 10% and a is known with an uncertainty of 5%. the strength of the material is known to an uncertainty of 12%. find the minimum design factor such that the beam is guaranteed not to fail.

Which of the following are considered noble gases? a. bromine b. neon c. argon d. chlorine

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.
