A Brake wear indicator is used to warn the user and/or owner of a vehicle that the brake pad is in need of replacement. The main area of use for this is on motor vehicles with more than three wheels. However brake wear indicators are also useful for brake pads in industrial applications, including wind turbines and cranes.This article refers to disc brakes as an example, but the principle is the same for other types of friction brakes.
== Types of indicators ==
There are different types of wear indicators for brake pads:
Ocular inspection: A cut is made in the pad material to the depth where it...
one twelveth mass of C-12 isotope is taken to be 1 amu
earlier scientists took the mass of protium isotope of hydrogen as a reference to measure the mass of other atom
And it is also given that when they did so with hydrogen as reference they got fractional atomic mass for many atoms
but what is...
@ShadowWizardisEarForYou I wanna see a video of you trying to get a good picture of your ears and how the surrounding people react to it.
Wow, your ears are probably big.
I dunno how to use that information but I will
If I ever came over there, I'd say there's a shadow guy (probably a euphemism for necromancer) with slightly bushy but extremely hot eyebrows and large ears that can vouch for me
I could not find out a way how to get reputation as i don't know how to help others on this website and i am only secondary one,not like those people that are already in college and others.I wish that someone could help me.
I am curious about tilt-rotor feasibility (such as AW609) against fixed-wing and rotor-blade aircraft (conventional helicopters).
One important issue that immediately arises in my mind is that both propellers must be highly robust against failures. This is translated in a significant disadvanta...
It brings something that is theoretically of interest to the entire community to MSE instead of having it lost on MSO where it is only available to SO users?
Now, whether that post is of interest or nor may be debatable, but bringing it to MSE doesn't strike me as bad. Ideally, it should have been posted there in the first place.
Yeah, I don't know why that post would be relevant today (or then, frankly) but on the other hand, assuming the OP does think it is relevant for some reason, I don't see anything wrong with reposting it as discussion.
I put the whole thing in a quote block, by the way, so it's clear that the OP isn't the author. I thought that important since the post is written in the 1st person.
I don't see any helpful information, just a lot of empty words, none of which are even saying anything new. But maybe I'm not objective. The whole thing felt like a waste of time and a vanity project from the start to me.
Others seem to disagree based on its score on SO and all the thanks Aaron got though, so whatever. To each their own.
The meeting itself is less important than what it meant. 3 people, at least two of whom would've not so long ago thought that spending more than a couple of minutes talking to a moderator unacceptable, spent a decent chunk of time doing so. Doesn't say anything about the future, but... Perhaps indicates a lesson about the value of conversation, hard-learned.
