Any movement of a positive charge into a region of higher potential requires external work to be done against the electric field, which is equal to the work that the electric field would do in moving that positive charge the same distance in the opposite direction. Similarly, it requires positive external work to transfer a negatively charged ...
The input power provided by the cyclist is equal to the product of angular speed (i.e. the number of pedal revolutions per minute times 2π) and the torque at the spindle of the bicycle's crankset. The bicycle's drivetrain transmits the input power to the road wheel , which in turn conveys the received power to the road as the output power of ...
By contrast, torque is a vector – the cross product of a force vector and a distance vector. Torque and energy are related to one another by the equation [citation needed] =, where E is energy, τ is (the vector magnitude of) torque, and θ is the angle swept (in radians). Since plane angles are dimensionless, it follows that torque and ...
The ancient Greek understanding of physics was limited to the statics of simple machines (the balance of forces), and did not include dynamics or the concept of work. During the Renaissance the dynamics of the Mechanical Powers, as the simple machines were called, began to be studied from the standpoint of how far they could lift a load, in addition to the force they could apply, leading ...
Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time.. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: = =
electric charge: coulomb (C) heat: joule (J) Reactive Power: volt-ampere reactive (var) electric charge: coulomb (C) electrical resistance: ohm (Ω) Ricci tensor: reciprocal square meter (m −2) radiancy: meter per second: gas constant: joule per mole per kelvin (J⋅mol −1 ⋅K −1) radius vector (position)
If two motors with the same and torque work in tandem, with rigidly connected shafts, the of the system is still the same assuming a parallel electrical connection. The K M {\displaystyle K_{\text{M}}} of the combined system increased by 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}} , because both the torque and the losses double.
