How so I solve for Torque 2 mass?
Torque 1= .125Nm
Torque 2= mass? x 9.80 m/s^2 x .253m
the g's cancel ... m2 = m1 * L1 / L2
Torque 2 and mass are both unknowns in a single equation
you need more information
this is what professor wrote I have no idea how to go about solving
m1*g*L1=m2*g*L2
m1=.1016kg
gravity 9.80m/s^s
L1= .126m
m2? L2 =.253m
I just figured it out a few minutes ago.
.1016x.126=.0128016/.253=.05059
or .0506kg
To solve for the mass in the equation Torque 2 = mass * 9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the equation: Torque 2 = mass * 9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m
Step 2: Rearrange the equation to solve for mass: Divide both sides of the equation by (9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m):
Torque 2 / (9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m) = mass
Step 3: Calculate the value on the right-hand side of the equation:
mass = Torque 2 / (9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m)
Step 4: Substitute the given values into the equation and calculate the result:
mass = Torque 2 / (9.8 m/s^2 * 0.253 m)
mass = Torque 2 / 2.4474 kg.m^2/s^2
So, to solve for the mass, divide Torque 2 by 2.4474 kg.m^2/s^2.
