Lnewqban replied to the thread Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe.As the volume of the liquid contained inside the tank decreases, the air pressure above its surfaces also decreases. "The water will... -
Lnewqban reacted to A.T.'s post in the thread B A scenario of non-uniform circular motion with
Like.
Yeah, I did not understand that part of the question either. Since it's about any deviation from circular it doesn't really matter, but... -
Lnewqban replied to the thread B A scenario of non-uniform circular motion.The centrifugal effect should induce a traction effect on the road. Therefore, increasing the rotational velocity of the object should... -

I have not had it at 1500 rpm, I have had it up to 800 rpm and yeah it was jumping around quite a bit even though I had roughly balanced... -
Lnewqban replied to the thread HP Required to move a robot 10meters at 1.5m/sec.Perfectly horizontal movement? Geared rails? How much acceleration you need? How will the mass be stopped? -
