    Find a Physics Textbook: Get Recommendations Here

    Hi Guys, I have lost my physics textbook that I had in college, and would like to have one to reference at work. I was wondering if you guys had any good recommendations for a "general physics" textbook that I could buy. Thanks.

    Drawing a Wheel Under Acceleration - RWD Car

    Okay. So the only thing I need to get rid of is V(Fa) and 'say' that z is non zero and it should be perfect to be an example of a driving/accelerating wheel?

    Drawing a Wheel Under Acceleration - RWD Car

    I don't understand how I am not concerned with the torque applied on the wheel. If there is angular acceleration on the wheel, there has to be a torque applied. Also, the wheel has to be applying a forward force V(Fa) for the car to accelerate in speed correct, so at the axle there would be a...

    Drawing a Wheel Under Acceleration - RWD Car

    Updated. Assume Rv to be the reaction force of the car on the wheel, and I labeled the angular acceleration z since I cannot due Greek letters in paint. This is correct now right?

    Drawing a Wheel Under Acceleration - RWD Car

    I drew up a quick picture in paint of a wheel under acceleration. This is the driving wheel of a RWD car. Am I missing any forces/drawn in the wrong direction? Thanks.
