Torque on Shaft of Prony Brake Dynamometer Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Total Torque = Weight at Outer End of Lever*Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley
T = Wend*Lhorizontal
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Total Torque - (Measured in Newton Meter) - 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.
Weight at Outer End of Lever - (Measured in Newton) - Weight at outer end of lever is the force acting on the object due to gravity.
Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley - (Measured in Meter) - Distance between weight and center of pulley is a numerical measurement of how far apart objects or points are.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Weight at Outer End of Lever: 19 Newton --> 19 Newton No Conversion Required
Distance between Weight and Center of Pulley: 1.45 Meter --> 1.45 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
T = Wend*Lhorizontal --> 19*1.45
Evaluating ... ...
T = 27.55
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
27.55 Newton Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
27.55 Newton Meter <-- Total Torque
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
