Force Required to Lower Load by Screw Jack given weight of load and Limiting angle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Force Required = Load*tan(Limiting Angle of Friction-Helix Angle)
F = W_l*tan(Φ-ψ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Force Required - (Measured in Newton) - Force Required is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. In other words, a force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity.
Load - (Measured in Newton) - Load is the weight of body lifted by screw jack.
Limiting Angle of Friction - (Measured in Radian) - The Limiting Angle of Friction is defined as the angle which the resultant reaction (R) makes with the normal reaction (RN).
Helix Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Helix Angle is the angle between any helix and an axial line on its right, circular cylinder, or cone.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load: 53 Newton --> 53 Newton No Conversion Required
Limiting Angle of Friction: 12.5 Degree --> 0.21816615649925 Radian (Check conversion here)
Helix Angle: 25 Degree --> 0.4363323129985 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F = W_l*tan(Φ-ψ) --> 53*tan(0.21816615649925-0.4363323129985)

Evaluating ... ...

F = -11.7498171200735

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

-11.7498171200735 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

-11.7498171200735 ≈ -11.749817 Newton <-- Force Required
