A small object A is held against the vertical side of the rotating cylindrical container of radius r by centrifugal action. If the coefficient of static friction between the object and the container is μs, determine the expression for the minimum rotational rate ⋅ θ = ω θ·=ω of the container which will keep the object from slipping down the vertical side.

The value of the critical Reynolds number for the flow over a flat plate is 5 x10^5. The significance of the value is:

(a) The boundary layer will be turbulent where the Reynolds number is less than this value.

(b) At a position along the plate where the Reynolds number equals this value, transition from laminar to turbulent boundary layer gradually occurs.

(c) If the Reynolds number for the plate based on the length L is greater than this value, then the boundary layer is turbulent over the entire plate.

(d) Transition from laminar to turbulent boundary layer will occur immediately when this value is exceeded.

(e) None of the above represent a reasonable answer!

Two well-known NP-complete problems are 3-SAT and TSP, the traveling salesman problem. The 2-SAT problem is a SAT variant in which each clause contains at most two literals. 2-SAT is known to have a polynomial-time algorithm. Is each of the following statements true or false?

1. 3-SAT ≤p TSP. 2. If P ¹ NP, then 3-SAT ≤p 2-SAT. 3. If P ¹ NP, then no NP-complete problem can be solved in polynomial time.

n a simple electric circuit, Ohm's law states that V=IR, where V is the voltage in Volts, I is the current in Amperes, and R is the resistance in Ohms. Assume that, as the battery wears out, the voltage decreases at 0.02 Volts per second and, as the resistor heats up, the resistance is increasing at 0.04 Ohms per second. When the resistance is 300 Ohms and the current is 0.02 Amperes, at what rate is the current changing?
