You are correct - catastrophic failure of the container.
Basically a piece at rest acted instantaneously with 300 lbs will strike another object with 300 lbs of force (ignoring air resistance) regardless of mass???

I am trying to determine what the acceleration of a projectile would be if failure happened on an aluminum container that contains 300 PSI compressed air. I'll have to make some assumptions so I would assume that a small piece of 20 grams broke off and the gas inside the...
I need good control over air pressure with high flow. I have a 1" pipe with 120 PSI incoming. I need to control the pressure to 0-5 PSI with "good" flow. I bought a regulator (0-12 PSI) from McMaster.com and that seems to be good. I bought a gauge (0-5PSI) and that is good. My issue is that I...
Really dumb question but...
Can someone please point me to a good tutorial on managing project files. I am experimenting with a vault program and it has me thinking about some very basic questions about how to set up a system.
On any one project typically we are creating an assembly that...
Thanks for the advice, it was helpful. Here is a curiosity question...Why is the speed of sound so significant? Obviously, it's the speed of sound but why would it limit the air flow in this case?
I am a non engineer and need some help. I have a common problem that I face on a regular basis. I thermoform and need to pull air out of pockets that trap air in tools. The problem is how many holes of what diameter do I need to evacuate a certain size pocket?
The holes are typically 0.016"...
I wish to determine if a circle, arc or line is contained within a polyline using VBA procedure. I have investigated the intersect command but this only works for 3D objects, my objects will be 2d objects.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
