Program Design | Design Phase of SDLC & its activities
Program design consists of the steps a programmer should do before they start coding the program in a specific language. These steps when properly documented will make the completed program easier for other programmers to maintain in the future.
There are three broad areas of activity undertaken in the Program Design phase:
•Understanding the Program
•Using Design Tools to Create a Model
•Develop Test Data

Series Circuits, Resistors in series & equivalent resistance – numerical
What is a series circuit? A series circuit consists of several resistors connected in sequence, one after the other. This increases the length of the conductor. Therefore total resistance increases as the number of resistors in series are increased in the circuit. Characteristics of Series Circuit as found from experiments Experiments show that the current […]
What is the Relation between momentum and kinetic energy? | How to derive the momentum-KE equation?
The relation between momentum(p) and kinetic energy(K) of an object of mass m can be expressed with this equation: p = (2mK)(1/2) That means the square root of 2mK gives us the momentum value. Now let’s derive the equation that gives the relationship between momentum and kinetic energy. Derive an equation to show the relationship […]
What is the difference between distance and displacement?
Distance is the length actually traveled on a route while Displacement is the shortest distance (straight line distance) between the initial point and final point of the traveled path. Distance is a scalar quantity and required to calculate speed. On the other hand, displacement is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Displacement […]
Potential Energy
What Is Potential Energy?Potential energy is a form of stored energy – it is the energy possessed by a body at rest due to its position or size or shape. By doing work, forces act to increase and decrease the kinetic energy of objects within a system. If the kinetic energy that’s removed can be […]
