Suppose we are using a checksum scheme based on the addition of successive 8-bit fields, rather than 16-bit fields as in the Internet Transport layer. Now suppose that the following 3 bytes are received, in which the last byte is the checksum field. 11000111 10010101 100 1 10 1 0 Does the receiver detect an error that might have occurred during the transmission of these three bytes? Show all steps.

Explain the strain-hardening phenomenon on the basis of dislocation - dislocation strain field interactions. also, briefly describe what generally happens to the ductility of a metal that has been strain hardened (i.e. does strain hardening make a metal more ductile or

Steam at a pressure of 100 kpa and a quality of 50% initially fills a rigid vessel having a volume of 0.5 m^3. the steam is then heated, causing the pressure in the vessel to rise to 150 kpa. determine: i. the mass of the steam in the vessel. ii. the temperature and quality of the steam after the heating process. ii the mass of the vapour, mg and liquid, m in the vessel after the heating process. if the steam in the vessel is now further heated, what would the pressure and temperature in the vessel be when all steam has turned into saturated vapour? b. sketch the processes in part (a) and part (b) on p-v and t-v diagrams, indicating clearly the temperatures, pressures and the paths. c.

Areaction-bonded silicon nitride ceramic has a strength of 250 mpa and a fracture toughness of 3.4 mpa(m)^1/2, what is the largest-sized internal flaw that this material can support without fracturing? (use y -1 in the fracture-toughness equation.)
