    Applied Dynamics
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the differentiation of the equation 2SA + SB = l, leading to the transformation into 2aA = -aB. The key point is that l is a constant, which allows for the differentiation to eliminate it from the equation. Participants clarify that if sA is constant, then both velocity (vA) and acceleration (aA) would also be zero, implying that sA and sB cannot be constants in this context. The conversation emphasizes understanding the dynamics of the variables involved in the equation. Overall, the thread highlights the importance of recognizing variable behavior in applied dynamics.

May i know actually why initially 2SA+SB=l , but after differentiate, it becomes 2 aA = -aB ?
why does the l disappear?

2SA+SB = l, so 2aA+aB=0 (because l is a constant), so 2aA = -aB :wink:
 
but how to know SA and SB is not a constant?

If sA is constant, then vA and aA will be 0 (same for sB)

ok thank you very much...
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
