MHB Calculate the rotational frequency in r/s and the diameter of the drive pulley

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the rotational frequency in revolutions per second (r/s) and the diameter of a drive pulley based on a belt speed of 33 m/s and a pulley rotation of 750 r/min. The rotational frequency can be determined by converting 750 r/min to r/s, resulting in 12.5 r/s. To find the diameter of the drive pulley, the relationship between linear speed, rotational frequency, and diameter is used, leading to a calculated diameter of approximately 0.84 meters. Participants are encouraged to share their methods and calculations for verification. The thread emphasizes the importance of applying relevant formulas to solve the problem effectively.

Thread 'Non-orthogonal bases'

Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...

Thread 'Fermat's Last Theorem'

Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
