we are using concept of spherical wheels in vehicles for our project. there is no axil running through the wheel. it works with rollers holding the sphere in place. we would like to know if this wheel will have more or less friction when it is put on the road. will more or less friction be...
assume the mass and the radius of both the wheels(sphere and cylider) to be the same.(density of the sphere being low)..hence for the same torque applied on both the wheels , the angular acceleration of the sphere would be greater.would this be a right statement. as moment of inertia of a...
Basically i am making a project based on a solid spherical wheel. I am required to show how this wheel is better than a normal cylindrical wheel in aspects such as friction. Couold i please get some help on this topic, to show that the solid sphere is more beneficial than the circular wheel...
Hi,
I am doing a project involving spherical wheels. I need some help with regards to the role played by friction on motion of spheres and cylinders (normal car wheels) on roads. Will friction act forward or backwards ?? Which type of wheel would be more advantageous ? Would appreciate any...
