    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    ah, Ok, so then it is correct? thank u :) :)

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    Dean Barry: but the question is for only one wheel, wouldn't that be wrong ? or just don't i understand it?

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    but isn't omega = v/r ? where does the 2pi fit in?

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    ok, so I can not use: (omegaf- omegai)/time = alpha ? can I use at= r*alpha?

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    T= 0.5MR^2*alpha T = 0.5*18*0.25^2*32.7= 18.4Nm Is this correct you think? Should I use the mass of the car or the wheel?

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    Ok, so I find alpha by finding omega with the velocity and time?

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    If I understand you correct: If i have the angular acceleration I can find the torque with F = ma? :)

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    Yes, but can I use this equation or will it be wrong? :)

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    A Tesla of mass 2100 kg accelerates from rest to 100 km/h in 3.40 seconds, and we will assume that the acceleration is constant. In the following, ignore resistance from the air and the rolling friction of the wheels against the surface. The wheels are rolling without sliding (no...

    Required Torque for Wheel at 8.17 m/s^2 Acceleration

    Homework Statement b) What is the required torque that the engine has to provide for each wheel, to have this acceleration? This is the question and this is the information given. vi = 0 vf = 100km/h mcar = 2100 kg radius wheel = 0,25m mwheel = 18 kg t= 3,4s the wheel has a moment of inertia...

    Solving Mechanics Problem: Angle, Speed, Centripetal Acceleration & More

    I put the two different ac equal to each other, and then i found theta by solving that one.

    Solving Mechanics Problem: Angle, Speed, Centripetal Acceleration & More

    r= sin(theta)*3 is the one I would use to find the r or angle.

    Solving Mechanics Problem: Angle, Speed, Centripetal Acceleration & More

    Vectors, and xf=xi+ vi*t + 1/2at^2 and, Vf=vi+at its the chapter "motion in two dimensions", next chapter is the laws of motion, so then we start to use a full body diagram and Newton.
