Why does a blunt pin require more pressure than a sharp pin?

A blunt pin has a larger surface area compared to a sharp pin, causing the pressure to be distributed over a larger area. This requires more force to penetrate the same material compared to a sharp pin, which concentrates the force over a smaller area.


When referring to a clevis pin what does the grip mean?

The grip of a clevis pin refers to the length of the pin's usable shaft, excluding the head and any other attachments. It is the portion of the pin that extends through the clevis or other objects to secure them in place. The grip length is crucial to ensure that the pin secures the objects properly without being too short or too long.


Why is it easier to push a sharp pin into a board rather then a blunt pin?

Pressure is inversely proportional to area. A sharp pin has lesser area compared to a blunt pin. Therefore we require lesser pressure to push the pin with lesser area.Hence it's easier to push a sharp pin which has lesser area.


Why is a sharp drawing pin better than a blunt one?

This is to do with pressure. Pressure is a measure of force over an area. In SI units it's measured in Pascals. Pressure (Pascals) = Force (Newtons) / Area (square metres) A "sharp" pin has a smaller area in contact with the wall as you try to push it in so the pressure on the wall will be greater for the same force. It'll feel easier to push it in.


What kind of simple macines is a push pin?

A push pin is a type of inclined plane, where the sharp end acts as the wedge. By applying force to the head of the pin, the sharp end easily penetrates into surfaces.
