Understanding Mechanical and Electrical Systems: Levers, Transmissions, and Electronics
Types of Levers
First Class Lever: Fulcrum between the load and the effort (R, PA, F).
Second Class Lever: Load between the fulcrum and the effort (PA, R, F).
Third Class Lever: Effort between the fulcrum and the load (PA, F, R).
Mechanical Transmissions
Screw Gear
Used to transmit movement, typically at a 90° angle. It has a single tooth-shaped screw engaging with a toothed wheel. Each rotation of the screw advances the wheel by one tooth. Characteristics include transmitting motion through right angles,

Levers
A lever is a rigid bar that is supported by a fulcrum.
Formula: F · d = R · r
Lever Classes
- Class 1: The fulcrum is between the effort applied and the resistance. The effect of the effort applied can be multiplied or reduced.
- Class 2: The resistance is between the fulcrum and the effort applied. The effect of the effort applied is always multiplied.
- Class 3: The effort applied is between the fulcrum and the resistance. The effect of the effort applied is always reduced.

Basic Logic Gates, Circuits, and Semiconductor Fundamentals
Basic Logic Gates
Logic gates are the fundamental building blocks of digital circuits. They perform specific logical operations on input signals, typically represented as binary values (0 or 1).
Key Logic Gates:
- AND: Outputs 1 only when all inputs are 1.
- OR: Outputs 1 when any input is 1.
- NOT (Inverter): Inverts the input (0 becomes 1, and 1 becomes 0).
- NAND: Negation of AND (outputs 0 only when all inputs are 1).
- NOR: Negation of OR (outputs 1 only when all inputs are 0).
- XOR (Exclusive OR): Outputs 1
Reducing Vehicle Pollution: Exhaust Gases and Control Methods
Accumulation of toxic products in the air can cause serious damage to health. Engine exhaust contains a compound atmosphere including unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide.
Measures to reduce pollutant emissions aim to achieve the lowest possible gasoline consumption, high performance, and good engine behavior.
Sources of Pollution
Engine Crankcase Gases
These gases are sent through a recirculation circuit to prevent external output.
Exhaust Gases and Gasoline Vapors
These are recycled into the cylinders

Copolymerization
Copolymerization is the chemical modification of polymer properties resulting from the polymerization of two or more monomers.
Long-Term Mechanical Behavior
When a material is subjected to tension, it undergoes elastic deformation, but simultaneously begins a slow, permanent plastic deformation. This phenomenon is known as Creep.
- Creep Modulus Curves: Defined as the ratio of constant voltage applied to the material and the increasing deformation experienced over time.
- Relaxation Modulus
