1. Lever Systems and Mechanical Advantage | 杠杆系统与机械效益
Consider a first-class lever used in a lifting device. The effort arm measures 0.4 m and the load arm is 0.1 m. A worker applies an effort of 50 N downwards. Calculate the maximum load that can be lifted and determine the mechanical advantage of this system.
考虑一个用于提升装置的第一类杠杆。力臂长 0.4 m,负载臂长 0.1 m。一名工人施加 50 N 的向下的作用力。计算可以提升的最大负载,并确定该系统的机械效益。
kwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment. Here, effort × effort arm = load × load arm.
我们从力矩原理入手,当系统平衡时,顺时针力矩等于逆时针力矩。此处为作用力 × 力臂 = 负载 × 负载臂。
Rearranging: Load = (Effort × Effort Arm) / Load Arm = (50 N × 0.4 m) / 0.1 m.
整理得:负载 = (作用力 × 力臂) / 负载臂 = (50 N × 0.4 m) / 0.1 m。
Load = 200 N
负载 = 200 N
tiplies the input force by a factor of four. The problem links moments (physics) with ratio and proportion (mathematics), demonstrating cross-disciplinary application.
机械效益 (MA) 定义为负载与作用力之比,因此 MA = 200 N / 50 N = 4。这意味着杠杆将输入力放大了四倍。这道题目将力矩(物理)与比和比例(数学)联系起来,展现了跨学科的应用。
2. Electronic Circuit Analysis: Ohm’s Law and Power | 电子电路分析:欧姆定律与功率
A simple circuit consists of a 12 V battery connected to a fixed resistor of 4 Ω. A student needs to find the current flowing and the power dissipated by the resistor. Later, a red LED with a forward voltage drop of 2.0 V is to be connected in series with the same voltage source, using a protective resistor. Determine the required resistance to limit the LED current to 20 mA.
一个简单电路由一个 12 V 电池和一个 4 Ω 的固定电阻组成。一名学生需要计算流过的电流以及电阻消耗的功率。随后,需要将一个正向电压降为 2.0 V 的红色 LED 与同一电压源串联,并使用保护电阻。为保证 LED 电流限制在 20 mA,求所需的阻值。
First part: apply Ohm’s Law V = I × R to find current I = V / R = 12 V / 4 Ω = 3 A.
第一部分:应用欧姆定律 V = I × R 求电流 I = V / R = 12 V / 4 Ω = 3 A。
Power P can be calculated using P = V × I or P = I² × R. Here, P = 12 V × 3 A = 36 W.
功率 P 可用 P = V × I 或 P = I² × R 计算。此处 P = 12 V × 3 A = 36 W。
Second part: the voltage across the resistor must be VR = 12 V – 2.0 V = 10.0 V. The desired current is 20 mA = 0.020 A. Using Ohm’s Law again, R = VR / I = 10.0 V / 0.020 A.
第二部分:电阻两端的电压必须为 VR = 12 V – 2.0 V = 10.0 V。所需电流为 20 mA = 0.020 A。再次使用欧姆定律,R = VR / I = 10.0 V / 0.020 A。
R = 500 Ω
R = 500 Ω
This exercise integrates basic electrical theory, semiconductor component knowledge, and unit conversion, demanding competence in both science and mathematics.

3. Material Selection: Density and Strength-to-Weight Ratio | 材料选择:密度与比强度
nium alloy (density 2700 kg/m³, yield strength 150 MPa). Both brackets will have the same volume of 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³. Calculate the mass of each bracket and compare the strength-to-weight ratio to recommend a material where weight saving is critical.
一个工程团队正在设计一个轻质支架。他们需要在低碳钢(密度 7800 kg/m³,屈服强度 250 MPa)和铝合金(密度 2700 kg/m³,屈服强度 150 MPa)之间选择。两个支架体积相同,均为 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³。计算每个支架的质量,并比较比强度,以推荐在重量要求苛刻的情况下的材料选择。
Mass is calculated from density (ρ) times volume (V): msteel = 7800 kg/m³ × 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 1.56 kg.
质量由密度 (ρ) 乘以体积 (V) 计算得出:msteel = 7800 kg/m³ × 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 1.56 kg。
m_aluminium = 2700 kg/m³ × 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 0.54 kg. Aluminium is significantly lighter.
m_aluminium = 2700 kg/m³ × 2.0 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 0.54 kg。铝合金明显更轻。
7800 kg/m³ ≈ 0.032 MPa·m³/kg. For aluminium alloy: 150 MPa / 2700 kg/m³ ≈ 0.056 MPa·m³/kg.
比强度可用屈服强度除以密度表示。钢材:250 MPa / 7800 kg/m³ ≈ 0.032 MPa·m³/kg。铝合金:150 MPa / 2700 kg/m³ ≈ 0.056 MPa·m³/kg。
Despite lower absolute strength, aluminium alloy offers a better strength-to-weight ratio. This typical materials selection problem blends science (material properties), mathematics (ratios and units), and sustainability thinking.
尽管绝对强度较低,铝合金却提供了更优的比强度。这道典型的材料选择问题融合了科学(材料性能)、数学(比值与单位)和可持续理念。

against gravity: W = m × g × h. Using g = 9.8 m/s², W = 10 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 2.0 m = 196 J.
克服重力所做的有用功:W = m × g × h。取 g = 9.8 m/s²,W = 10 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 2.0 m = 196 J。
Efficiency η = (Useful Work Output / Total Energy Input) × 100% = (196 J / 500 J) × 100%.
效率 η =(有用功输出 / 总能量输入)× 100% =(196 J / 500 J)× 100%。
η = 39.2%
η = 39.2%
The remaining 304 J is mainly dissipated as thermal energy due to friction in bearings and gears, sound, and heat in the motor windings. This question links mechanics, energy transfers, and manufacturing tolerances, requiring evaluative skills.

Cross-sectional area A = π × (d/2)² = π × (2.5 × 10⁻³ m)² ≈ 1.9635 × 10⁻⁵ m².
横截面积 A = π × (d/2)² = π × (2.5 × 10⁻³ m)² ≈ 1.9635 × 10⁻⁵ m²。
Stress σ = Force / Area = 2000 N / 1.9635 × 10⁻⁵ m² ≈ 1.0186 × 10⁸ Pa or 101.9 MPa.
应力 σ = 力 / 面积 = 2000 N / 1.9635 × 10⁻⁵ m² ≈ 1.0186 × 10⁸ Pa,即 101.9 MPa。
ress / Young’s Modulus = σ / E = 1.0186 × 10⁸ Pa / 200 × 10⁹ Pa ≈ 5.093 × 10⁻⁴ (no units).
应变 ε = 应力 / 杨氏模量 = σ / E = 1.0186 × 10⁸ Pa / 200 × 10⁹ Pa ≈ 5.093 × 10⁻⁴(无量纲)。

A hydraulic jack has a small piston of area 2.0 cm² and a large piston of area 50 cm². A force of 100 N is applied to the small piston. Using Pascal’s principle, calculate the force exerted by the large piston and the distance moved by the large piston if the small piston moves down by 10 cm. Assume no leakage and incompressible fluid.
一台液压千斤顶的小活塞面积为 2.0 cm²,大活塞面积为 50 cm²。向小活塞施加 100 N 的力。利用帕斯卡原理,计算大活塞产生的力,以及如果小活塞下移 10 cm,大活塞将移动的距离。假定无泄漏且液体不可压缩。
= F₁/A₁ = F₂/A₂. So, F₂ = (A₂/A₁) × F₁ = (50 cm² / 2.0 cm²) × 100 N = 25 × 100 N = 2500 N.
帕斯卡原理指出压强等值传递:p = F₁/A₁ = F₂/A₂。因此,F₂ = (A₂/A₁) × F₁ = (50 cm² / 2.0 cm²) × 100 N = 25 × 100 N = 2500 N。
t: V = A₁ × d₁ = A₂ × d₂. Hence d₂ = (A₁ / A₂) × d₁ = (2.0 cm² / 50 cm²) × 10 cm = 0.4 cm.
液体排量恒定:V = A₁ × d₁ = A₂ × d₂。因此 d₂ = (A₁ / A₂) × d₁ = (2.0 cm² / 50 cm²) × 10 cm = 0.4 cm。

7. Control Systems: Flowchart for a Conveyor Belt | 控制系统:传送带流程图
Design a control flowchart for a simple conveyor belt system. The system must start when a green push button is pressed, run the motor, and stop when a red button is pressed OR when an optical sensor detects that a box has reached the end of the belt. Additionally, an emergency stop should override both conditions and stop the motor immediately. Represent the logic using standard flowchart symbols.

The solution involves starting with a 'Start' oval, then a decision diamond for green button press. If yes, the motor turns on. The process then continuously checks two shutdown conditions in parallel: red button OR sensor activated. These are combined in a decision diamond. If either condition is true, the motor turns off; if emergency stop is activated at any moment, the motor stops regardless of the state. The flowchart contains an infinite loop until shutdown.
解决方案包括一个“开始”椭圆形,然后是一个判断绿色按钮按下的菱形框。如果是,电机启动。程序随后持续并行检查两个停机条件:红色按钮或传感器被触发。这两者在一个决策菱形中组合。如果任一条件为真,电机停止;如果急停在任意时刻被激活,无论状态如何均立即停止电机。该流程图包含一个无限循环,直到关机。

spaced fins, each 50 mm high and 2 mm thick. The base thickness is 5 mm. Calculate the total exposed surface area available for convection cooling. Ignore the areas where the base and fins join. Use mm² for area and give the answer in mm².
一个平板铝散热器由一个 50 mm × 50 mm 的底座和五个等间距的散热片组成,每片高 50 mm、厚 2 mm。底座厚度为 5 mm。计算可用于对流冷却的总暴露表面积。忽略底座与散热片连接处的面积。使用 mm² 作为面积单位并给出答案。
es = 2 × (50 × 5) + 2 × (50 × 5) = 500 + 500 = 1000 mm². So total base exposed = 2500 + 2500 + 1000 = 6000 mm².
底座顶部表面积(扣除鳍片接触区域):area_base_top = 50 × 50 = 2500 mm²。底座底部和侧面面积:底部 = 50 × 50 = 2500 mm²,四条边缘 = 2 × (50 × 5) + 2 × (50 × 5) = 500 + 500 = 1000 mm²。因此底座总暴露面积 = 2500 + 2500 + 1000 = 6000 mm²。
fin = 2 × (50 × 50) + (50 × 2) = 5000 + 100 = 5100 mm². Five fins = 5 × 5100 = 25500 mm².
每个散热片有两个侧面(50 mm × 50 mm)和一个顶部边缘(50 mm × 2 mm)。单片面积 = 2 × (50 × 50) + (50 × 2) = 5000 + 100 = 5100 mm²。五片 = 5 × 5100 = 25500 mm²。

Study the following description of an engineering component: a rectangular block 80 mm long, 40 mm wide, and 20 mm high has a cylindrical through-hole of diameter 16 mm drilled centrally through its width (the 40 mm dimension). Interpret this to sketch the front, top, and right-side views in third-angle projection. Determine the minimum distance from the hole’s circumference to the nearest edge of the block.

the centre to the nearest edge (front or back) is 20 mm. The radius of the hole is 8 mm, so the minimum distance from the hole circumference to the front edge is 20 mm – 8 mm = 12 mm.
在俯视图中,孔以一个圆呈现。孔的中心位于宽度的中点:距前边缘 40 mm / 2 = 20 mm。中心到最近边缘(前或后)的距离为 20 mm。孔的半径为 8 mm,因此孔圆周到前边缘的最小距离为 20 mm – 8 mm = 12 mm。
