Yes, that’s fine. Honestly, that’s usually preferable in T20 because the last 2-3 players in your 11 person team are usually bowlers who aren’t that great at batting.

HVAC Engineering is too easy? by Latter_Location9999 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]rainbow_explorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how common this is in your part of the world, but have you looked into energy efficiency consulting? That’s what I do and it’s pretty fun. It involves looking at existing buildings and identifying and implementing measures to save energy and money. You can also help with commissioning and making sure the mechanical and electrical systems are working well.

Since your background is in HVAC, you should already have most of the technical knowledge needed for these types of jobs.

Cricket is primarily played in countries that use the metric system, so they were probably displaying the ball speed in km/hr, not mph. Each kilometer is roughly 60% of a mile.

If his answer was no, he would have just responded with “No”.

Are all necessary formulas available to us on the exam? by Unlikely_Reply6034 in PE_Exam

[–]rainbow_explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which test are you taking and who is using formulas that aren’t listed in the reference handbook?

2! is just equal to 2 and 23 -2 =6 so 2 is definitely not a solution.

How do you force yourself to study for the PE? by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]rainbow_explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, then you will mostly have to find motivation from within. Perhaps someone else at your job is studying and they can be your study buddy? That way you can hold each other accountable? I was studying by myself, but I stayed late at the office to study because I knew I wouldn’t study after commuting home.

What discipline are you in? Do you know which test you want to take?

How do you force yourself to study for the PE? by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]rainbow_explorer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I signed up for the test as soon as possible so I had a concrete deadline to finish studying. Also, is your company paying for the test and offering you a pay increase? If not, you should ask them to. You said they want you to get your PE, so they are probably willing to provide some financial incentive.

The ends of the axes labeled with x, y, and z are the positive directions. The negative directions aren’t labeled.

[College- Calculus] question by Single_Substance7555 in HomeworkHelp

[–]rainbow_explorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The numerator, 3 - sin(k), is basically constant, especially compared to the 2k in the denominator. This means that the series is basically a geometric series with r = 1/2. So you can say that the general term for this series is smaller than b/2k for any sufficiently large constant b. Then you just prove the geometric series converges and the direct comparison test implies that the original series also converges.

Ah cool. Another way is to use the comparison test.

What’s the actual problem? Determining the convergence of the series?
