AI Thread Summary

To calculate the moment of inertia of a tyre about its central axis, one can combine the moment of inertia of the tyre itself with that of the rim. The moment of inertia for a solid cylinder can be used as a reference, but specific formulas for the tyre's geometry may not be readily available. It is suggested to consult external resources for detailed calculations and methods. Understanding the distribution of mass in both the tyre and rim is crucial for accurate results. Properly calculating these values is essential for applications in physics and engineering.

how could i calculate the moment of inertia of a tyre
if i needed the moment of inertia about the central access of the tyre
could i add the moment of inertia of the tyre+ the moment of inertia of the rim

and how do i calculate the moment of inertia of the tyre, i can't find any assosiated formula for tht geometry

Thread 'Is 'Velocity of Transport' a Recognized Term in English Mechanics Literature?'

Here are two fragments from Banach's monograph in Mechanics I have never seen the term <<velocity of transport>> in English texts. Actually I have never seen this term being named somehow in English. This term has a name in Russian books. I looked through the original Banach's text in Polish and there is a Polish name for this term. It is a little bit surprising that the Polish name differs from the Russian one and also differs from this English translation. My question is: Is there...

Thread 'Is calling fictitious forces "not real" just about terminology?'

Hi there, im studying nanoscience at the university in Basel. Today I looked at the topic of intertial and non-inertial reference frames and the existence of fictitious forces. I understand that you call forces real in physics if they appear in interplay. Meaning that a force is real when there is the "actio" partner to the "reactio" partner. If this condition is not satisfied the force is not real. I also understand that if you specifically look at non-inertial reference frames you can...
