so can we clearly say that the weight of truck is transferred to pressured tire by surface area 1*pressure and it transfers the same load to the road by surface area 2*pressure
surface area 1 : area of the rigid part touching to the tire
surface area 2 : area of the tire touching to road
:) ok.
last one. what will happen if i increase the load (add more things to truck) there must be a limit for that if i put more weight and suppose that the tire surface is strong enough. the air will go upwards and the truck will touch the bottom. but if i put more pressure on it will lift the...
ok let's change the subject.
i got a basketball it stands still on the road. then i come and start pressing on the ball with my one foot. the ball will be deformed from the point that i press. and also the area of the ball touching the road will be deformed and increase.
i think that because...
got it
so if i have a truck of total weight is a N on 4 tires with a tire pressure of p Pa then the surface area touching the road per tire should be
N/(4*p)
so there force to the road will be pressure times the surface area so N again.
if the tires were solid then i can exactly say that the load per tire transfering down to road is 5000/4 = 1250 kN
but the tires are like pneumatic pillows. so some of the load should be carried by the tire surface.
hi to all
problem:
a truck with a total weight of 5000kN and with 4 wheels will be placed on 4 glass cups each under one wheel. if each tire has a internal air pressure of 2MPa. what will be the load on each cup? and if the truck was standing on the road without the cups under wheels what...
