The formula to calculate the Total Frictional Torque is:
\[ T = \frac{\mu_{friction} \cdot W_{t} \cdot h_{Slant}}{2} \]
Total Torque is the measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. Force is what causes an object to accelerate in linear kinematics.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ T = \frac{0.4 \cdot 24 \cdot 1.5}{2} = 7.2 \text{ Nm} \]
| Coefficient of Friction (μ) | Load Transmitted (Wt) | Slant Height (hSlant) | Total Torque (T) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.35 | 24 N | 1.5 m | 6.300000000000 Nm |
| 0.4 | 24 N | 1.5 m | 7.200000000000 Nm |
| 0.45 | 24 N | 1.5 m | 8.100000000000 Nm |
