#the answers are more accurate due to approximations in program than textbook answers

The value of Tst/Tf when x= 1.000000 is= 1.800
The value of Tst/Tf when x= 0.577360 is= 0.600
The value of Tst/Tf when x= 0.700000 is= 0.882
The value of Tst/Tf when x= 0.333333 is= 0.200

EXAMPLE 5.2 - PG NO.93

#example 5.2
#page no. 93
#calculate the time taken by a fan
tor=42.
speed=1425.
minertia=1.
area=155.#found from figure given in book
acctime=155*2*3.14*100*0.003*1/60.
print'%s %.2f %s' %('the acceleration time =',acctime,'secs')

the acceleration time = 4.87 secs

EXAMPLE 5.3 - PG NO.97

#Example 5.3, page 97
import math

print'%s %.3f %s' %('The value of T_min is =',Tmin,'sec ')

The value of T_min is = 1.676 sec
