Flashcards
Die Geschwindigkeit
the velocity:
The velocity is the speed of something in a specific direction.
Die Verformung
the deformation:
The deformation of a balloon will be temporary.
Die Abnutzung
the wear:
Without any lubrication the wear of your engine is tremendous.
Die Schmierung
the lubrication:
Without any lubrication your engine will wear out rapidly.
das Vermächtnis
legacy:
Unfortunately, my grandmother died and left me a small legacy.
wahrnehmbar, bemerkbar
perceivable:
A sum of three ligths could reproduce any perceivable colour
großartig
magnificent:
The perceptions of Maxwell's equations are magnificent.
die Vereinheitlichung
unification:
The first great unification in physics came up with Newton.
beeinflussen
influenced:
These equations describe how electric and magnetic fields propagate, interact and how they are influenced by objects.
ausbreiten
propagate:
These equations describe how electric and magnetic fields propagate, interact and how they are influenced by objects.
wechselwirken
interact:
Newton's Third Law describes how objects interact.
als Ganzes/ Zusammenfassend
as a whole:
As a whole, what do Maxwell´s Equations mean?
Wärme
caloric:
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries scientists adhered to the caloric theory.
Iinnere Energie
internal energy:
The first law of thermodynamics states, that the increase in internal energy is equal to the total heat added plus the work done on the system by its surroundings.
Wärmeabstrahlung
heat radiation:
The heat radiation of a toaster is some kind of heat energy.
Geschwindigkeitsvektor
velocity vector:
The velocity vector shows us the direction of the movement.
Größe, Betrag
magnitude:
Newton Third Law partner forces have the same magnitude, but the opposite direction.
Luftreibung
air friction:
To solve mechanical tasks, we neglect air friction very often.
stationär
stationary:
If you throw a ball straight up, at some point it will be completely stationary.
Feststoff, Festkörper
solid:
It will be difficult for you to compress a solid.
einatomig
monatomic:
In a monatomic gas internal energy might be the sum of the kinetic energies of all the gas atoms.
Feder
spring:
A stretched spring is some kind of potential energy.
festhalten
adhere:
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries scientists adhered to the caloric theory.
zur Ruhe setzen
put to rest: Finally, the caloric theory was put to rest.
Antwort, Reaktion
response:
One of the most important signal in control engineering is the impulse response.
schwingen
to oscillate:
A system tends to oscillate with its natural frequency when there’s no damping or driving force.
Resonanz
resonance:
Resonance describes the phenomenon that occurs when a vibrating system or an external force drives another system with a greater amplitude at a specific frequency.
Dämpfung
damping:
All natural systems have their own damping.
el. Leiter
conductor
Copper is a better conductor than iron.
Überlagerung
superposition:
In many technical procedures (like Helmhotz) the principle of superposition can be applied.
Wicklung
coil
Every transformer is equipped with at least 2 coils.
Aufsatz, Abhandlung
Treatise:
This treatise is based on the observation of Newton.
schweben
levitating
Because of the reason, that the train is levitating, it doesnt't need any lubrication.
