    Tire Torque
AI Thread Summary
To calculate the torque on each tire of a mining dump truck on a 10% incline, the coefficient of friction is necessary, even if the truck is stationary. The diameter of the tire and rim is provided, which can help in determining the radius for torque calculations. Understanding the weight distribution and forces acting on each tire is also crucial. The discussion emphasizes the importance of showing initial calculations or efforts before seeking assistance. Accurate torque calculations are essential for assessing the truck's performance on inclines.

So I have a mining dump truck with 6 wheels. Tire is 4022mm diameter and rim is 1600mm diameter. I know all information about the truck. Assume that the truck is standing still on a 10% incline. Do I still need to find coefficient of friction to calculate the torque on each tire ? Thanks
