    Creating a temperature differential on SF6 to evacuate a cylinder

    I have a 50KG cylinder with 1-2LB of SF6 at 15PSI. I want to transfer it into another cylinder by temperature differential. Keeping it simple. I try to model it with two cylinders that has a valve on each cylinder. Connecting the cylinder with a 1/4" hose. Both valves are closed. The...

    Two rigid bodies combined center of gravity

    Thanks mathman and berkeman. I see how it's related. I'm not sure why I didn't think of that. Must be late in the day! BTW, good memory berkeman! I'm in transition in putting theory into practice and seeing how everything works out. I've already obtained my answer so hopefully someone...

    Two rigid bodies combined center of gravity

    Hello all. I'm trying to find the equation for combined Center of Gravity (CoG) when you combine two objects with different weight. I know how to find the centroid, which is what the CoG would be if both objects were the same weight. But what about two objects with different weight...

    Centripetal/Centrifugal Force and Moment of Inertia

    Thank you PhanthomJay. That was how I was going about the problem.. just double checking! I really appreciate the help. This forum seems great, maybe I'll stick around and try to spread some of my knowledge to others!

    Centripetal/Centrifugal Force and Moment of Inertia

    It is not a homework question, more of a conceptual problem for work. What is given is the weight and the dimension of the box Lets say the box starts to tip, but prior to ultimate tip over, the forklift would slow down or straighten out which will lower 'pseudo' force. Ideally, will the...

    Centripetal/Centrifugal Force and Moment of Inertia

    Maybe this should me moved to the "homework style" question? Could the mods move this thread if you think it is suitable over there. Thank you.

    Centripetal/Centrifugal Force and Moment of Inertia

    Hello all. I have a problem and I’m not sure if my analysis is 100% accurate. I hope this is the correct spot since it deals with dynamics (mechanics). Here’s my scenario: I have a forklift and a pallet with a box on top. I’m trying to calculate the required velocity for the box+pallet to...
