Tensile stress is the force exerted per unit cross-sectional area on an object.

Tensile strain is the extension per unit original length of an object.

By definition z*  = a - bj.

We can write z/z* = ((a+bj)/(a-bj))*(a+bj)/(a+bj).

We calculate this to be z/z* = (a^2-b^2)/(a^2+b^2) + j(2ab)/(a^2+b^2).

Therefore, Re(z/z*) = (a^2-b^2)/(...

Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons, but a different number of protons. Therefore, isotopes have the same atomic number but a different mass number.

An example of an isotope is carbo...

Liberalism is the 'essentially contested concept' or ideal which dominates western political discourse, both explicitly and inexplicitly (Gallie). Political theorists often make the distinction between 'c...
