AI Thread Summary
To calculate the torque and RPM for an electrical motor in the given scenario, the required torque can be determined using the formula Torque (Nm) = Force (N) x Distance (m). The force needed to lift 10 pounds translates to approximately 44.5 Newtons, and the distance of 7 feet is about 2.13 meters. The time constraint of 6 seconds will influence the RPM calculation, which can be derived from the formula RPM = (60 x Distance) / (Time x 2π x Radius). It is important to ensure that the calculations align with the motor's specifications to meet the lifting requirements effectively.

Hello!

How do you calculate or determine Newton meter force requirement and rpm's for an electrical motor in the following example:

A device that utilizes a shaft that is 2 inches in diameter and 6 feet length. It needs to be able to lift 10 pounds and distance of 7 feet in 6 seconds. I need to know the formulas to make these calculations and the requirements needed for this application?

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Mr. Nice Guy.

You are going to have to show your own approach first...

Edit -- And this should also be in the homework help section of the forum.
 
Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'
My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
