    Shaft Torque
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the torque on a shaft when lifting a 1000 kg load with a winch at a wire speed of 35 meters per minute. Participants reference the formulas T = Fr for torque and P = Fv for power, emphasizing the need to determine force (F), velocity (v), and radius (r) for accurate calculations. The required horsepower for the electric motor, operating at 980 RPM with a 70:1 gearbox ratio, is also a key point of inquiry. Users are encouraged to engage actively and adhere to forum rules for effective problem-solving. Understanding these calculations is essential for proper winch operation and motor selection.

What is the torque on a shaft when applying a load of 1000 kgs. through winch lifting at a speed of 35 meters per minute wire speed. What should be the H.P of an electric motor if it runs the winch. The motor rpm is 980. Gear box speed ratio is 70:1.

PF expects users to put in some effort, check out the forum rules.

Are you familiar with T =Fr ?
Or an answer can be had more directly via:
P=Fv
 
What is F, v and r in the formula. I am not familiar.
 
Force, velocity and radius.
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

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 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
