Find a minimum two-level, multiple-output AND-OR gate circuit to realize these functions (eight gates minimum). a. f1(a, b, c, d)= Σm(10, 11,12, 15) + Σd(4,8,14)
b. f2(a, b, c, d)= Σm(0, 4,8, 9) + Σd(1,10,12)
c. f3(a, b, c, d)= Σm(4, 11,13,14, 15) + Σd(5,9,12)

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

What difference(s) did you notice using a pneumatic circuit over hydraulic circuit.explain why the pneumatic piston stumbles when it hits an obstacle.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
