    Distance traveled by wheel with varying diameter and weight

    First off, please excuse my general lack of physics knowledge, it's been 10 yrs since one year of it in high school ... but I can usually follow along pretty well once pointed in the right direction. I've been curious about the relationship of wheel weight and diameter in relation to distance...

    Question about bicycle generated power system

    Yeah, I figured that out at about step #2 :) More curious about the electronics of it all. Plus I'm doing the workout 5-6 times a week anyways. I figure I could put the power into batteries and charge the laptop and phone, but in reality I'd rather pay the pocket change. It is funny to...

    Question about bicycle generated power system

    Thanks for the reply! What provides the resistance you mention below in turning the shaft when another generator is added? Is it mechanically/physically more difficult? Is the torque you mention a constant thing to overcome or is it just to get it started? For reference 100W would not be the...

    Question about bicycle generated power system

    I appologize in advance if my terminology is flawed... I'm interested in exploring how to produce power with a bicycle and have read a ton about it on the internet so far. However, I can't seem to find anyone running more than one motor from a single bike. I assume there's a good reason but...
