If you flip through the pages of just about any physics textbook, you will probably find a picture of a roller coaster loop illustrating the concept of centripetal acceleration. Textbook problems often portray loops that […] Read More

Basic underlying principles of a roller coaster start with one of the more fundamental laws of all physics and that is the law of conservation of energy. When we start to talk about the law […] Read More

(Intro Music) Welcome to the “Hydraulic Press Channel”! Empty soda cans are surprisingly strong. You can even stand on top of one if there isn’t any dent. But how strong they are that’s what we’re […] Read More

Alright, so not too long ago I got stuck on a rollercoaster And for me it’s a big deal, because when I was a kid I had two reoccurring nightmares One was having Harry and […] Read More

The pullstud bolt is the only part connecting the machining center and the tooling. It is one of the most important components because this one bolt retains the tooling and it must stand up to […] Read More

As a 2nd example let us take the case where again I take a ramp at 30 degrees from the horizontal put a block here of mass M equal to 100 kg and apply a […] Read More

I am here at the University of Sydney where the mechanical engineering shop has built this incredible piece of apparatus for me. It is a forty pound, that is nineteen kilogram flywheel on the end […] Read More

In the previous lecture, we have discussed the method of solving dynamics force analysis problems of plane mechanisms. We have seen, the dynamic force analysis problems, which means, when the complete motion of a system […] Read More

Two Dimensional Vectors, level 12. In this video we will go over how to solve static equilibrium problems. In general when an object is stationary or at rest we say it is in a state […] Read More

In our lectures on statics so far you would notice that we have been taking the force on a body when it is on a surface mostly to be perpendicular to the surface By doing […] Read More
