This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)

Variables Used

Braking Force - (Measured in Newton) - Braking Force is the force that slows down or stops the motion of an object, typically applied through friction or other external means.
Mass of Vehicle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Vehicle is the total weight of a vehicle, including the driver, passengers, cargo, and fuel, which affects its acceleration and overall performance.
Retardation of Vehicle - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Retardation of Vehicle Force is the force that opposes the motion of a vehicle, slowing it down or bringing it to a complete stop.
Acceleration due to Gravity - (Measured in Meter per Square Second) - Acceleration due to Gravity is the downward force exerted on objects by the Earth's mass, pulling them towards its center.
Angle of Inclination of Plane to Horizontal - (Measured in Radian) - Angle of Inclination of Plane to Horizontal is the angle at which a plane is tilted with respect to the horizontal surface, affecting the force applied.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass of Vehicle: 54.73 Kilogram --> 54.73 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Retardation of Vehicle: 8.955 Meter per Square Second --> 8.955 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Acceleration due to Gravity: 9.8 Meter per Square Second --> 9.8 Meter per Square Second No Conversion Required
Angle of Inclination of Plane to Horizontal: 65 Degree --> 1.1344640137961 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_braking = m*a-m*g*sin(α_inclination) --> 54.73*8.955-54.73*9.8*sin(1.1344640137961)

Evaluating ... ...

F_braking = 4.00534319179314

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

4.00534319179314 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

4.00534319179314 ≈ 4.005343 Newton <-- Braking Force

What is Break Drum?

A brake drum is a cylindrical component in a drum brake system that rotates with the wheel. When the brakes are applied, brake shoes press against the inside surface of the drum, creating friction that slows down or stops the wheel. The drum plays a crucial role in generating and dissipating the braking force.
