In the electromagnetic clutch, electromagnetism is used to exert a pressure force on one pressure plate to make the clutch engage. In this type, the driving plate is attached to the electric coils. When the electricity is provided into these coils then the plate work as the magnet and it attracts another plate. So both plates join when the electricity provides and the clutch is in an engaged position. When the driver cuts the electricity, this attraction force disappears, and the clutch is in the disengaged position. 1, record 1, English, - engaged%20position

Causes of Plate Motion.-Although plate tectonics has explained most of the surface features of the earth, the driving force of plate tectonics is still unclear. According to geologists, a model that explains plate movement should include three forces. Those three forces are the pull of gravity; convection currents, or the circulating movement of fluid rocky material in the mantle; and thermal plumes, or vertical columns of molten rocky material in the mantle. 3, record 5, English, - plate%20motion

High hardness armour is a low alloy quenched and tempered steel with very high hardenability. The plate is manufactured to very high levels of through hardness, typically greater than 500 Brinell. High hardness armour defeats incident projectiles by shattering or deforming the projectile to the extent that the force on the armour from the projectile impact is sufficiently distributed to be no greater than the strength of the high hardness armour plate. 6, record 7, English, - high%20hard%20armour

Pressure : direction of action.... a flat solid surface... the magnitude of the force due to pressure should be independent of the direction of the surface on which it acts. For instance, a thin flat plate in air will experience a zero resultant force due to air pressure since the forces due to pressure on its two sides have the same magnitude(the pressure is independent of the orientation of the surface on which it acts) and they point in opposite directions(each force acts normal to its own surface). We say that pressure is isotropic(based on Greek words, meaning equal in all directions, or more accurately in the present case, independent of direction). 1, record 9, English, - isotropic%20pressure

Un traitement idéalisé d'un fluide entre deux grandes plaques parallèles (qui permettent d'ignorer les effets de bords), de superficie A et séparées par une distance h. Si pour déplacer l'une des plaques par rapport à l'autre, avec une vitesse constante V, il faut appliquer une force F agissant dans la direction opposée à celle du mouvement alors que la densité, la pression et la viscosité de l'ensemble du fluide restent constants, l'équation de Newton peut être couplée aux équations de mouvement et de continuité pour montrer que le gradient de la vitesse dans le fluide reste constant [...] Ce cas idéalisé (cisaillement simple) est quelquefois utilisé pour définir la viscosité de cisaillement. 1, record 13, French, - cisaillement%20simple
