If possible, indicate the cost of 1kwh of electricity and how u derived your answer.

Thanx in advance.

Hi, I am planning to transfer to University of Colorado at Boulder and I wan t to major in engineering. It has a concurrent program wherein I can get my Bachelors in Architectural Engineering and Masters in Civil for five years and it also has a BS/MS program in Chemical engineering. I know being a chem. eng pays more, but I am not really into chemicals and all those processes involved with it. I even hate handling laboratory instruments. I am really interested in architecture, though. Do you guys think it would be better for me to be an arch/civil engineer? How much do you think would I be paid as soon as I graduate?

I know that a cell phone is partially a GPS and relays a signal from one phone to another but can you determine the location coordinates -- or is that information a closely guarded secret that only the service provider has access to.

I need help with matlab. I keep getting "error matrix must be a square". It can get corrected when i change for example x^2 to x.^2. The program will work fine, but I am writing long program and I want that automatically done. How will I go about that?

I went to ti.com but I'm not tech savvy so I dont know what category to search under. Is it a data converter, DSP, microcontroller? I don't even know what these are.

You have to use less than 10 pieces. It must be rigid. It does not have to hold water. It CANNOT involve a union. No bending. No welding. It has to be done with standard plumbers tools. All pipe must be the same diameter. No reverse threading. I'm stumped. But I know a guy who swears it can be done. Do you knowit?

I am only 23 but a masters is 4 years and i may have to do a foundation year which would mean i wouldnt graduate until i was 29 or 30 because i am at college at the mo and wont be applying until 2008 for entry in 2009. I would still have 30 years or so employment. What do you think, am i too old? Is it a good career? Is it more of a male career and could i face difficulties as a woman, i am particulalry interested in Offhsore Engineering.

Thanks guys and gals.

I am trying to capture I/O's for devices like valves, pumps with and without vfd, motors with overload...things like that.

I also notice on previous projects from other engineers, the I/O's they had captured for pumps had 2in/out and analog 1in/out. I dont understand really why there would be 2 in/out for a pump. I know that an analog in/out would mean that they have something controlling the motor through a VFD.

So, if anyone can tell me how many I/O's for each devices I had mentioned above and describe the functional of each I/O, I would appreciate it.

Oh, and the system I'm working on is a CIP system (clean in place syst) and what the pump does it pumps water from a supply tank and is controlled by a VFD. Another pump is a return pump with out a VFD. We also have a motor in the system, that is an agitator triggered through a limit switch. So what I'm really looking for are the rule of thumb from experienced engineers when they try to capture I/O's of a system.

What does it do and why is it so important?
Also, who is most responsible for its invention and when was it built.
