Hi there,
My question is about a measurement in the following setting:
The setting:
A fixed bar, in vertical postion, in connected by a joint with another bar, in a horizontal position. So together they form an L shape.
I know the geometry and mass of both bars.
The measurement:
I try to move to horizontal bar - very slowly - , at a distance D from the joint, while I measure the amount of force that I produce. At a certain moment, the bar starts moving and I stop the force measurement.
The question:
Will I be able to calculate the coefficiënt of friction in the joint, after this measurement?
An If so, how I can do that?
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance,
Tony
