needless to say I'm a physics-challenged person but as a designer, I'm finally confronted with the science part of life
I want to have an estimate-calculation on the forces that will act on a looping if I have an object of x kilograms moving at y speed hits a looping with z diameter.
I haven't got a clue where to start and trial/error testing is too expensive.
What I want to know is what formula's I can use in order to retreive the following info:
- minimum speed for object (object weight could vary) to complete the looping (different diameters)
- maximum diameter of looping for weight/speed combination
- forces that act on the looping's construction (in order to build a prototype)
think of it like an RC car doing 'Hotwheels" stunts ...
I appreciate any help with links, formula's, ...
