Which direction does torque go?
Torque has the direction perpendicular to the plane of the twist. The Right-Hand Rule says positive torque is counterclockwise(ccw).
Why counter clock wise torque is positive?
It is common convention to take a force directed 'up' as positive, this gives a counter clock wise moment a positive value.
What is clockwise and anticlockwise torque?
Clockwise, top rotating to the right, and counterclockwise, top rotating to the left is only a perspective based on the position of the observer. The torque is the rotational force of the rotating object. Most often the perspective of the observer is from the driving end of a shaft facing the driven machine. The amount of torque at a given speed of the driving machine (engine or motor) is mechanically converted into work by the driven machine (generator, pump, compressor...etc.).
What happens when a clockwise moment and an anticlockwise moment are equal?
on a seesaw what happens when a clockwise moment and an anticlockwise moment are equal
What do you mean by clockwise moment and anticlockwise moment?
The meaning of clockwise movement is movement in the same direction of the hands of a clock, or in a circle from left to right. Anticlockwise movement is movement in a circle from right to left.
How do you describe the direction of rotation when the measure of an angle is positive?
Anticlockwise.
Is there a positive or a negative angle?
Yes. Angles may be measured from the direction of the positive horizontal axis and, clockwise is negative, anticlockwise is positive.
How would i find an unknown mass of an object balancing on a rod if i have a rod that is 20cm with a 5kg weight then 80cm with an unknown weight?
torque = force * lever length if its balanced, then clockwise torque = anticlockwise torque. if 5kg mass is 20 cm right of fulcrum, then clockwise torque= 5*20 =100 kg-cm therefore anticlockwise torque to balance = 100 kg-cm if 100 (kg-m) = x(kg) * 80(cm), then x = 100(kg-cm)/80(cm) then x = 1.25 kg
What is the standard position of 790?
The standard position of 790 degrees is 70 degrees anticlockwise from the positive x-axis.
Why do you turn around Kaba anticlockwise during worship?
For many reasons, among them:It is ritual worships that not subject to debate. Otherwise you may ask; for example; why praying for Maghrib is three Rakaats or why hajj (pilgrimage) is in specific days of the year.In all sciences anticlockwise direction is defined as the positive direction and the clockwise direction of spin is negative. So, it is logic to turn in positive direction.Another philosophical personal reason, to open a normal screw bolt you turn it anticlockwise, so turning anticlockwise is a relieve of any tied-up problem.
How cranes lift heavy loads without toppling?
Because anticlockwise torque is equal to clockwise torque and therefore the net torque is zero so the crane is in state of equillibrium and also there center of gravity pass through base therefore the cranes lift heavy load without toppling
Why rotor of a dc motor moves in the anticlockwise direction?
Positive and negative are reversed. It will run either direction depending on which way it is wired.
Does the naruto whirlpool spin anticlockwise or clockwise?
anticlockwise
Which way does the earth move clockwise or anticlockwise?
anticlockwise
What is the reference angle for -490 degrees?
When using autocad, 0 degrees was at 3 o' clock, then go anticlockwise for positive, clockwise for negative
Which direction does torque go?
Torque has the direction perpendicular to the plane of the twist. The Right-Hand Rule says positive torque is counterclockwise(ccw).
Make a sentence using the word anticlockwise?
the clock ran anticlockwise
