What is the formula to find centripetal force?
Centripetal force is always directed towards the center of the circle of motion that an object is traveling in.
How does torque differ from force?
Torque is the tendency of a force to rotate the body to which it is applied.Torque is always specified with regard to the axis of rotation. It is equal to the magnitude of the component of the force lying in the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation, multiplied by the shortest distance between the axis and the direction of the force component. Torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in this motion.
Whereas,force is the agency that alters the direction, speed, or shape that a body would exhibit in the absence of any external influence.It is a vector quantity, having both magnitude and direction. Force is commonly explained in terms of Newton's laws of motion. All known natural forces can be traced to the fundamental interactions. Force is measured in newtons (N).
Conservation of angular momentum tells us?
Angular momentum will not change unless an external torque acts upon the system
The short answer would be that angular momentum is conserved, i.e. it cannot be created nor destroyed.
A more technical answer would be that there is a certain theorem in theoretical physics called Noether's theorem which shows that if a physical theory exhibits rotational invariance (i.e. the physics are the same even if you rotate the system) that angular momentum conservation is a result.
According to particle physics therefore the conservation of angular momentum seems to tell us that the Universe is invariant under rotations. This might seem strange, because surely rotating yourself changes how think look, but the physics involved remains the same.
What is bending moment and torque and its difference?
• The turning effect produced by a force on a body is called torque. It is calculated
as force multiplied by perpendicular distance.
• A couple is a special case when there are two equal but opposite forces acting on
a body that rotate it.
How do you convert meters per second to RPM's?
You need more information to specify exactly what you are trying to do here, but I can give you one common example that will hopefully get you on the right track.
If you take the example of a cylinder spinning about it's axis, then you can convert between its rotational speed in revolutions per minute (RPM) and the tangential surface velocity (m/s) if you know the diameter of the cylinder. Essentially, you divide the time of one rotation into the circumference of the cylinder.
Legend:
V = tangential surface velocity
C = circumference of cylinder
D = diameter of cylinder
RPM = revolutions per minute
Pi = 3.14
Equations:
V = C * RPM = Pi * D * RPM
or
RPM = V / (Pi * D)
Example:
A cylinder with a diameter of 1 meter is rotating at 60 rpm. Its tangential surface velocity is:
V = (3.14) * (1 m) * (60 rpm) = 188.4 m/min = 3.14 m/s.
Which principle is used in a DC motor?
Current carrying conductor kept in a magnetic field gets deflected. This is the basic principle. In short Lorentz force causes the rotation
What is the advantage of centrifugal force?
One application that comes immediately to mind is the separation of substances in heterogeneous mixtures. Test tubes of mixtures are placed in a centrifuge and spun at high speeds. This causes the substances of different densities to separate, with the denser materials moving to the bottom of the test tubes.
What caused the nebula that formed our solar system to rotate?
1) The collapse is not bound to be perfectly symmetrical. Some pieces of matter will randomly move in one direction, or in another. The net result is that there is some rotation.2) Roughly speaking, anything that rotates will continue rotating.
The two forces will produce the same torque if : R1xF1 = R2xF2; r1f1sin(R1F1) = r2f2sin(R2F2). The magnitude of the forces can be the same (f1=f2=f) but their angles with the the displacement (R) can be different, r1fsin(R1F1) = r2fsin(R2F2),and the torque will be the same. Torque is the vector product of the force and displacement.
Take the velocity to be in positive direction.
Positive acceleration increases velocity and they are in the same direction.
Negative acceleration reduce velocity and they are in opposite direction.
It does not matter if the motion in linear or anfular.
Where do you learn about physics?
In my every day's life. When I walk I have to push the earth backward so as to get a movement in forward direction. This is what we call Newton's third law.
"For every action there will be equal and opposite reaction"
A torque sensor, or torque meter, is a device that measures the torque on rotating systems, usually wheels. Torque, in this case, is the twisting force that causes rotation, such as that applied when you pedal a bicycle.
A torque switch is a device used to control the torque applied in mechanical systems, often in electric motors or machines. It monitors the torque level and can automatically turn off or adjust power to prevent overload or damage. Commonly used in applications like conveyor systems or automated machinery, torque switches enhance safety and improve operational efficiency by ensuring that equipment operates within specified limits.
What two quantities does rotational inertia depend on?
The mass, and how it is distributed- how far the masses are on average from the axis of rotation. However, it is the square of the distance that counts in this case.
Force is given by Newton's second law: F = ma where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.
F=2000kg x (25 m/s)2 / 80 meters 15,625n
Net torque is the magnitude and direction of torque that is left over when you add up the torques that are acting on an object.
What is dimension for angular velocity?
rads/s
radians/second
Usually its stated as rpm (rounds per minute) but it usually needs to be converted to rads/s for calculations.
1 rad/s= (1 rpm)*2*pi/60
The simple scalar method of calculation is to integrate the square of the radius (r) across dm, where m is the mass. (Integral r2 dm is the equation, but we don't have an integral sign here.) Use the link to Wikipedia for the rest of the information and expansions on the "basic" equation.
Rotational inertia is sometimes called spin. It involves the movement of a mass around an axis. This moving mass will have some measure of kinetic energy that is due to the fact that it is spinning. The variables are the shape and the mass of the object, the way the mass is distributed within the object, the speed of its rotation, and the location of the axis of spin through the object.
The moment of inertia might also be called angular mass, mass moment of inertia, rotational inertia, or polar moment of inertia of mass. Use the link below for more information.
Is 150 pound-feet of torque much different from 100 pound-feet?
for a given lever length the force is (150 / 100) times greater
torque = force (pounds) * lever length (feet)
