Answer #1

The packing efficiency is the fraction of the crystal (or unit cell) actually occupied by the atoms. It must always be less than 100% because it is impossible to pack spheres (atoms are usually spherical) without having some empty space between them.

P.E. = (area of circle) / (area of unit cell)

For a square lattice as shown, the coordination number is 4 (the number of circles touching any individual).  The coordination geometry is square, as shown below.

The airfoil data in Appendix D were obtained in the NACA two-dimensional Low Turbulence Pressure Tunnel at the NACA Langley Memorial Laboratory. This facility went into operation in Spring 1941. The tunnel was especially designed for airfoil testing, with a test section 3 ft wide and 7.5 ft high. The wing models spanned the entire test section of width 3 ft, sso that the flow over the model was essentially two-dimensional. The chord length of the models was 2 ft....

26. Two stocks, one high risk (Happy) and one low risk (Lonely), have been evaluated by your company. Your stock analysis team has predicted estimated returns and beta risk in the table below for the two stocks and the market. Using this information, and the CAPM model, draw the risk-return graph, with the security market line, and place the estimate return and the CAPM required rate of return on the graph and indicate to me if Happy and Lonely are...

This is a special order problem that also requires that you use the high low method to estimate some cost function parameters, so you may want to review the high-low method lectures in Module 1. As with almost all of the analyses that we have done, determining variable and fixed costs, and knowing what to do with them, is critical. ______________________________________________________ Huang Automotive is presently operating at 75% of capacity.
