I have adhd and a little ocd that comes with it when I get a idea in my head no matter how trivial I'll try to bring it to its most detailed conclusion.
Let's be very hypothetical and say a chain is attached to the rocket in a way that isn't going to destroy it. But let's say we have a very large chain wrapped liberally around said 1000 ton tree and off some ways is the Rocketship with chain attached so it won't blast off soil. I guess what I'm...
So its pressure that keeps the tree from moving not friction? I guess that makes sense since soil is damp. Is there a way to quantify this pressure in any meaningful way or the amount of Newtons it would take to root a tree?
Interesting, my next question would be what is the difference between pulling say A huge boulder vs a tree. I'm assuming the force being applied to the tree is frictional because of the roots but I could be wrong. And if you put say a large truck like a 9000 pound diesel truck on a track made of...
What if the ground for whatever reason was made of gears and so too were the wheels. What kind of power would it take to knock over a tree could a simple 9000 pound diesel truck do it if it had that kind of traction in this scenario ?
I was trying to do some research to find the difference in power of different vehicles. Mainly the difference between a Large hauling semi truck A battle tank and a bulldozer like a d11t. Let's say I hooked up a chain to the back of each of these vehicles and rapped it around a large 3 foot...
