How Do You Calculate Horizontal Force in Power Screw Problems?

AI Thread Summary
To calculate horizontal force in power screw problems, it is essential to determine parameters such as phi, alpha, and Ts (tightening). The user expresses uncertainty about finding the horizontal force, denoted as w, and seeks clarification on whether additional factors are involved in the calculation. The provided Google Doc links for homework statements and equations are not functioning, hindering access to necessary information. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying equations and concepts to solve the problem effectively. Assistance is requested to clarify the calculation process for horizontal force.

The Attempt at a Solution




My steps:
1) Find phi
2) Find alpha
3) Find Ts (tightening)

I think i just don't know how to find the horizontal force, w
OR
Is there something else to this question ?

Please help me figure this out
Thanks in advance
