Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around solving a torque problem involving a two-bar mass structure, with dimensions likely in imperial units. Participants seek clarification on the complete problem statement, including force and calculation units. There is a focus on the torque produced by two forces, questioning whether the counterclockwise torque from one force can balance the clockwise torque from another. The effective lever arm for one of the torques is noted to be shorter, raising doubts about its ability to counteract the larger torque. Understanding the units and dimensions is crucial for accurately solving the problem.

Homework Statement
I have problem on T, is it T is clockwise so the answer is negative?
Relevant Equations
My answer is: M(A)= (Tv x 25)+(Tn x 15)-(300x40)

0=(T sin(5/13)) +(T cos(12/13))- 10200

T=11.27

Please clarify my answer, thank you

Welcome to PF.

Can you please provide the complete problem statement? Is that a 2-bar mass of some sort, welded at the join? It looks like the dimensions are in imperial units (feet, inches), what are the force units in? What are the units in the calculations you have shown?
 
Welcome, Andy! :cool:

Why (300x40)?

Intuitively, do you believe that the CCW torque produced by 11.27 can counteract the CW torque produced by 300?

Note that the effective lever of T is about 0.7 the lever of 300.

Well, technically, it depends on the units, eh? :wink:

Thread 'AM-AM and AM-PM graph generation in LTSpice'

Greetings to all, I am writing with a question regarding graph generation in LTSpice. I am using LTSpice XVII and am trying to plot AM-AM and AM-PM characterization for a power amplifier, but I haven't been successful yet, likely due to my lack of practice with this specific analysis. I have been using a square wave input at 8.2 MHz as the voltage waveform for my power amplifier. It is said that for a switching amplifier like Class-D, the AM-AM / AM-PM (amplitude-to-amplitude and...

Thread 'How do I determine the resistance for RLC low pass filter?'

Hi, I am trying to build a RLC low pass filter that atenuates the frequency below 4500 Hz. However, I have encountered some problem when choosing the correct R to work with. Here is the Circuit Here is the original sound. Here is my code in Matlab function Vout = myFilterCircuit(Vin,h) n_V = length(Vin); f_7 = 4470;; % Undesired frequency h_7 = h; % delta time % These are for the constant and initialization of the variables t_7 = 0:h_7:(n_V-1)*h_7; % This is the independent variable...
